Thursday Satsang: “Embracing Our Shadow – Transcending the Polarities That Bind Us – Part II” with Jim Nelson – January 19, 2017
YOU CAN BENEFIT FROM ATTENDING PART II EVEN IF YOU DID NOT PARTICIPATE IN PART I
JIM’S HANDOUTS ARE WORTH THE PRICE OF ADMISSION SO PLEASE JOIN US ON JANUARY 19, 2017
PART 1 EXPLORED THE IMPORANCE OF BALANCING, INTEGRATING, AND BRINGING TO FULL AWARENESS OUR UNCONSCIOUS POLARITIES. WE LEARNED THAT THERE IS NOTHING TO RUN FROM, EXTINGUISH, OR RESENT IN OUR SELVES. MOREOVER, BY MAKING NEGATIVE SELF-ASSESSMENTS, WE ACUTUALLY GIVE ENERGY TO THE POLARITY CAUSING OUR DISHARMONY.
IN PART II, WE EXPLORE YOGA’S UNIQUE PERSPECTIVES AND THERAPUETIC PRACTICES THAT HELP US TRANSCEND OUR IDENTIFICATIONS WITH POLARITIES. PRACTICE OF THESE EFFICACIOUS ANCIENT TOOLS OF THE HIMALYAN TRADITION, OPENS US TO THE EXPANSIVE, UNIFIED, AND JOY FILLED CONSCIOUSNESS WITHIN. THE PRESENTATION WILL BE INTERACTIVE AND INCLUDES A HEALING EXPERIMENT ENLISTING THE DIVINE MOTHER.
LOOK FOR SILENCE AS THERAPY TALK.
