LISTENING TO SELF
WORKSHOP

Finding Your Authentic Voice

The 2023 Spring Course, Listening to Self begins on Friday, March 24th and completes on Friday, April 21st. Listening to Self combines, Coaching, Energy and Body Awake Yoga, Journaling and Reading into a learning community designed to support the work of listening to yourself as the possibility you were meant to be – before life showed up.

Transitions are often difficult and surprising. Sometimes people find themselves at a crossroads and the choices they make will determine the path their lives will take in that moment. Sometimes in such times, we seek out the counsel of others; therapist, coaches, pastors, friends, and families. The last person we consult is ourselves.

We are the creators of our lives. Somewhere long ago we had a voice we trusted and cherished to help guide us forward. It’s not that other voices are not valuable, it’s that we gave those voices more authority and power trusting them more than our own precious inner voice– it’s a both/and process. Listening to Self begins with the idea that we are naturally creative, resourceful and whole, the answer to a full rich life are found inside.

Before we were born, we lived in a place of no language, a place of deep connection to another, a symbiotic existence, without judgement or desire, we existed in harmony with another living-being. In the moment of birth two things happened (quickly) we entered into a world filled with noise, voices shouting and directing around us and our ego woke up.

I suggest this is the beginning of listening to others. The phrase, “You have to face reality,” has been a dream killer for centuries. Now I respond to that phrase with “why.” Now we have anew moment. Even if your life has been a success, ask yourself, What do I know now that I forgot or stored away? What is it my life is asking of me in this moment? Am I courageous enough to choose a different path? Only you can answer these questions. Listening to Self is designed to be a resource, to unlock your inner voice and listen to yourself as the miracle you are.
