Ground of Being 2 [Self-guided]
Jeannie guides participants through an exploration of the potent depth of what’s often overlooked in the moment: being.
Drop into the ground of your being
Step away from attention's interest in thought
Jeannie guides participants to sink down out of interest in thought into a sense of being off-duty, resting in the simple vibrating moment of is-ness. She likens this abiding to sitting at the mouth of a dark, silent cave. She addresses the most asked questions in spiritual meetings: How do I stay here? How do I live from this?
