About You
You are probably a spiritual practitioner or seeker who also lives in the modern world of work, family, and community. You may be interested in psychology, personal inquiry, and engaging with the complexities of being human. You are interested in getting at the roots of things..
You may be struggling with:
-Feeling overwhelmed.
You want to feel more spacious, like there’s an internal resting place.
-Emotional exhaustion.
It’s a lot of weight to be the container and to take care of many other people. We don’t always feel held and supported ourselves.
-Fear of many kinds.
You want to feel like there’s enough, a feeling of abundance, faith, and confidence.
-Feeling checked out, dissociated, numbing out.
You’d like to cultivate presence and focus in your life and with your clients. Depth therapist often like this kind of spiritual work because it offers ways to cultivate the imagination, the presence, and the depth we value.
Meditation is an opportunity to show up for our experience.
-Staying creatively engaged in your work without burning out.
The koans are kind of weird, so they bust up the encrusted ideas, convictions, opinions, and habits. They are like earthworms, tilling the soil and breaking things up, giving us an opportunity to creatively rebuild. We enter the unconscious, where things get strange and we don’t understand things in our usual way. Koan practice helps us to find different ways of relating to our minds and our experience, to think outside the box, and to allow for surprise.
-Disconnection or alienation from Spirit, but a desire to reconnect, or to deepen the connection.
-You may want spiritual community.
-You may crave silence, and also feel some fear of silence.
If you resonate with some of this, you might find the space and company to further explore these experiences at Crimson Gate Meditation Community.
- You may have done personal psychotherapy work; your spiritual practice is a different take on inner work.
- You may feel a call to Spirit, to have a personal experience of the largeness of things, and to see things more clearly.
- You are considering the possibility of a committed practice.
- You value community as a path of practice.
