Integrating Mind, Body, Spirit with Centering Prayer – via Zoom
November 2 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
$55.00
Presented by Dr. Christine O’Brien and Eric Peter – This session provides you with practical exercises to augment your Centering Prayer practice and maintain a reservoir of connection to oneself and the Divine Indwelling. Simple routines proven to calm the nervous system and focus on the heart can release past hurts and traumas that may exist beyond our awareness. You don’t necessarily have to re-live these events, or talk about them, to release them. Christine and Eric will explain the science of how and why these practices work. Then, we will perform them together so you will leave with practical techniques to help slow your reactionary false-self programs.
You will learn:
About post-traumatic growth
Active practices to integrate into your day to regain your center
How to achieve heart coherence and why it leads to inner security and stability
Vestibule practices to use before your centering prayer sit that may deepen your experience
This event will include a session of Centering Prayer.
Recording Note: This event will be recorded. All registrants will receive a copy of the Zoom recording within 2 weeks of the event.
