Join Jeannie and friends to explore relating with adult family members, weeding out the conditioned from the true.
Jeannie invites participants to soften and ground into the present moment. She talks about how family relationships bring out unprocessed hurt and young aspects of ourselves. Jeanne stresses the importance of soothing the creature of the body in order to relate from a place of love, sovereignty, and attunement with present reality.
Exchange 1: Participant experiences heartbreak witnessing the aging of her parents and also judgment at their negativity. Jeannie talks about how we cannot force spiritual growth on others and invites the participant to lean into the felt experience of helplessness and heartbreak.
Exchange 2: Participant wonders about boundaries with her mother who is living with her and the anger that emerges in relation to her. Jeannie talks about developing sovereignty.
Exchange 3: Participant wants to spend more time with her family but feels challenged by her parents’ style of relating. Jeannie advises on recognizing that a certain style of relating is sessional and introduces the possibility of approaching them playfully.
