One woman's tender experience of the inner marriage class / deadline extended
|
Dear Reader, I'm extending the deadline to sign up for inner marriage until Tuesday. Please excuse the dramatic deadlines. I got some notes asking for an extension and decided I was being a little hyper. It's summertime... let's all go as slowly as we want to. Click here to learn more. Also, I wanted to share Erin's tender and beautiful journey with the class. She's a woman I respect greatly and has been my teacher at times in the past. I'm touched by her realness. And I love that she's speaking so clearly to something I feel committed to in my classes... that all of you is welcome... no matter what state you find yourselves in on any given day or in this moment of your life. "When I took Amelia’s Inner Marriage class, I was in an unusual place… the hardest time of my life so far. I was numb, recovering from PTSD, and any thought of moving forward to re-engage with my life felt too hard, too heavy, overwhelming. Amelia’s gentle, joyful, soft, sweet playfulness was the balm I didn’t know I needed. The information she offered was easy to digest… and oh so valuable. Teaching me that when I hold myself in soft, gentle ways first, for long enough, my normally fierce, powerful action-oriented self will naturally emerge. Her presentations were so clear… each word seemed intentionally chosen. And the meditations… first I cried through them, then I felt nourished by them, then I listened to them each night to fall asleep. (She went the extra mile to provide us with separate recordings of just the meditations, which wound up being incredibly useful.) And she welcomed us to participate in any way we chose… just watching the recordings later and emailing questions in, or on the live calls but with our videos always off… all the way to speaking up to ask and answer questions on the live video calls and participating in breakout groups. I know it was Amelia’s permission and encouragement to show up even in whatever (even tiny) way possible for me at the time, that enabled me to welcome and nourish myself where I was… enough to get fully back to my norm, where I now am again… fully, deeply engaged with myself."

Dear Reader, I wanted to give a gift to everyone who has ever done Inner Marriage with me. I've been experimenting more deeply with the Yin Masculine - the energy we call in when we truly want to create something new or transform something. And I want to share a practice with you. We'll do the meditation together, then a little writing, then a little sharing if you're in the mood. As with most of my events, this is for you and you can leave whenever you want, keep your video off, arrive...

Dear Reader, Here's a lovely 33 minute conversation with Aria Mathur. According to Aria: "The Solar Eclipse and New Moon in Libra lands today -- October 2nd -- and these energies are inviting us to explore a new template, and way of relating. How we experience relationships depends on a lot of things from our past, and while we cannot change that, there is a new octave of wholeness, acceptance, enjoyment and presence that is available to all of us this season." She describes the energies of...
