Basic classes

CLASS 1: Spiritual Tools teaches the foundational tools for a spiritual practice of authentic presence, essential alignment, and inner healing. This class will introduce you to aspects of your energy system and teach you tools for growing greater presence, consciousness and inhabitation of your energy system, including:

• Centering: the practice of consciousness from your innate energy expression

• Grounding: the practice which makes it possible to sustain this self-awareness

• A meditative process of inhabiting and healing your energy space, including aura, channels, and chakras.

• Spiritual tools to support you in learning, living in the present, experiencing ease, having appropriate boundaries, attuning to self, and discerning your own energy.

• Being with life as it is from a state of clarity

• Grounding and clearing spaces energetically

• Creating in alignment with who you are

• Working with emotions - growing equanimity

In this class, you receive the basics of building a daily meditation practice of spiritual alignment which supports you in making conscious, healthy choices, as well as tools you’ll be able to use throughout the day to practice this.
