"We put non-dual ground rules in place. One: there's no difference between life and death. Two: only you are responsible. You have to seek what's true for you at this moment. Three: you're going to be loved regardless of what you decide."
"Once, I was strengthened by a stone. I was leading this woman's retreat in New York, and I didn't feel good. I felt weak, and I just didn't feel like I was in my seat.

We are going to enter compassion through several different doorways this weekend, including the one that opens for you. And since it is Easter,...

“In Eastwest workshops, we develop verbs of permission, life enhancing rather than diminishing words that sink into the watery soma of the body. We move ourselves in the idea of body. What we can do depends on what we invite to happen. We match the outside to the inside, and arrive on time.
