Heart Initiation IV: Gratitude
A three-hour session to awaken the heart that sees every moment of life as a gift.
To be grateful is to recognize. When we uncover the true love in our hearts, gratitude follows on its own. Not as a strategy to secure some unknown future. Not to paint a smiley face over a hard situation. True gratitude is the honest recognition that this whole existence is a miracle, and that nothing is guaranteed.
With this kind of gratitude, you can’t lose. You even win by losing. Everything that triggers resistance in you becomes a doorway to a new and more beautiful experience.
This session is devoted to this flavor of gratitude.
The Session
We begin with a few practices to bring our attention into the body and the room, and to gather as a group. From there we move into the heart-awakening meditations — directed focus, and the relational practices drawn from trust, openness, and love.
We close with a deep gong bath and silence.
Please Note: Three hours is a real commitment. It is also the right amount of time. The heart does not open on a schedule. We need time to arrive, to go deep, and to let what has happened settle. You will leave knowing the time was well spent.
No prior experience required. Only the desire to awaken the loving heart.
