During our time together, we will explore what it takes to live from an open, undefended heart. Naturally, any true exploration of living from the heart necessarily entails taking a deep and sustained look at what prevents us from keeping our hearts open. Grounded in the knowledge that the essence of us, our true nature, is the very lovingness within us all, we will explore how to recognize and release egoic energies by cultivating open-hearted awareness practices which support us in directly experiencing our true Self. By leaning into willingness, steeped in self-honesty, and with a consistent dash of courage, we endeavor to open to whatever life brings, as it brings it, that is, on life’s terms. In so doing, we trust that everything – absolutely everything – is here for us to use for healing, for purification, and for learning to live from the heart. We look forward to supporting each other in our individual explorations of how we truly embrace the entirety of this show we call life.

We are seeking Awakening Together Ordained Ministers to facilitate courses in our Minister Preparation Program (MPP). Facilitating the MPP courses is an excellent way to review the teachings you learned in these courses. In addition, facilitation helps you deepen in those teachings and into your own spiritual practice. MPP facilitators are also paid for facilitating MPP courses.
Michael DeForbes led our Sunday morning meditation. His guided meditations are based on the direct path, which is an integral part of our teachings here at Awakening Together.
