Description

There are many approaches to spiritual and personal growth, most tend to be quite dydactic - tell you what to do exactly - which can be good but also can feel limiting. These days a lot of people are looking for freedom and self expression, so they need an approach which allows them to discover for themselves instead of being told what to do. This is a course in self discovery designed to be done as a series of daily exercises each one practiced for a week, so it takes a total of 8 weeks to complete. You will learn a lot about your self and develop your ability to meditate and to free and expand your consciousness in that time, and set a foundation for future practice and growth. You need to be able to do a daily practice but it does not have to be for very long if that is difficult - 5 mins if you don't have time - 30 mins if you want to do it more deeply. Just make it every day. Welcome to yourself. May it be a fascinating and transformative journey, and may this be only the beginning. In the end we look to becoming not someone better or different, but discovering more of our own true nature - who we truly are when we take away all the restrictions that we have placed on ourselves and that have been placed upon us.

Who this course is for:

For those who wish to follow a spiritual path
For those who don't like being told what to do
For those who would still like some guidance and support without pressure
