Open Circle Events:

Gail Brenner, Ph.D ~ Coming Together in Love and Kindness

Time Zone Converter

LetÕs come together to support each other in the field of love and presence at this challengingÑand sacredÑtime.

We’ll start with a guided meditation, then reflect on the opportunities being given to slow down, turn inward, and be with our experience. WeÕll practice welcoming whatever arisesÑthe fears, frustrations, and gifts of this unique time.

WeÕll expand into the infinite field of loving consciousness thatÕs inclusive of everything and explore how our surrender to that moves us to meet our current situation.

You are most welcome with your fears, doubts, questions, and insightsÑand simply to share sacred space together.
