Spiritualism

''A Course in Miracles (ACIM)" is The Channelled Works of Jesus / Isa / Yoshua (Same Human Being - Named Differently by Different Religions) from 1965 - 1972. It Supplements and can go beyond anything The Bible, The Koran and The Torah has taught you. Find Out if you are ready to experience Spiritual Growth Beyond Religious Teachings (THE ACTUAL PROMISED: SECOND COMING) that have been Edited or Re-Translated over many centuries or EVEN Added to for The Suppression of Women. It Upholds the prophecies from those 3 holy books, but Clarifies More Deeply where they don't seem able to FULLY for the ordinary 21st Century human being, who finds it difficult to understand esoteric teachings handed down by Mystical Schools. You have free will to decide when you will commence your Journey HOME from Earth. We can Listen to Recordings of the above mentioned works. Alternatively, I also have DVD or CD recordings from Joseph Campbell, Deepak Chopra, Mother Theresa, Stuart Wilde, David Hawkins, Esther Hicks, Dennis Waitley, Gregg Braden, Wayne Dyer and Others. Topics that can be covered include: How "A Course in Miracles" came to be, Near Death Experiences, The Second Coming, The Evolution of Mankind's Spiritual Understanding, The Human Ego, Buddhism, The Christian Teachings EDITED FROM The Bible, Taoism, Ayurveda, Zen, Chi, The Bhagavad - Gita and Guided Meditations. This event is stated to run 3 hours, but those not able to can leave early and this would never be a problem. The Nature of THE BIRTHER (ETERNAL UNCONDITIONALLY LOVING SOURCE) and The Nature of OUR ESSENCES (SOULS) are Identical (Made in God's Image). The Insane Human Ego is THE ORIGINAL MISTAKE. Our Goal is to use THE POWER of REASON to UNDO IT, while on Earth!!!

**Sunday Night Meditation Session - I Am Ready.** A gentle start-of-the-year meditation to help you arrive into the year without pressure, expectation, or the need to reinvent yourself. Rather than setting goals or resolutions, this session offers space to settle into your body and begin the year from a place of steadiness, self trust, and quiet clarity. Focusing on readiness, not striving. About recognising that you don’t need to keep working on yourself before you can live this year as yourself. The beginning of a new year doesn’t require a different version of you. It simply meets you where you are. We’ll be lying on the grass beneath the early evening sky in Edinburgh Gardens, allowing nature, breath, and stillness to help the nervous system settle and the body soften as the year gently begins. This session is especially supportive if you’re feeling reflective at the start of the year, tired of self improvement cycles, navigating uncertainty, or sensing that you’re ready to live more honestly and fully without expectations placed on yourself. It’s also a grounding way to orient into the year if you want something calmer and more embodied than the usual “new year” noise. **This session is designed to help you:** • Release pressure and expectations about the year ahead • Settle your nervous system and ground into the present • Let go of striving, fixing, and self correction • Feel steady, supported, and at ease • Step into the year as yourself, without needing to change \*\*\* *“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.”* — **Ralph Waldo Emerson** \*\*\* **Session structure:** **We’ll begin with Yoga Nidra, a guided deep rest practice where you simply lie down, get comfortable, and allow your body to soften.** There is nothing to perform or achieve. Remaining still supports the nervous system to drop into deeper rest while I guide awareness gently through the body, helping the mind unwind and the system settle. **From there, we’ll move into a guided visual meditation focused on readiness and self arrival.** Through slow, grounding imagery and gentle hypnotic language, the practice invites a felt sense of stepping into the year as yourself, without expectations, pressure, or the need to become someone new. This part of the session is designed to land by helping the body register trust, presence, and enough-ness rather than effort. No experience is needed. This session is beginner friendly and fully guided from start to finish. **When & Where?** 🗓 Sunday ⏰ 5:00pm - 6:30pm (This is a 1.5 hour Session.) 📍 Edinburgh Gardens, Fitzroy North We’ll set up on the grass near the Rotunda. Look for my yoga mat and the large pink sign that says “Free Guided Meditation.” **Weather Notes.** This is an outdoor session. If the weather turns rainy or unsuitable, I’ll update the event listing beforehand. Please check the Meetup page before heading out. Early evening sessions are often calm and beautiful, but Melbourne weather can always surprise us. **What to bring?** • Yoga mat or something comfortable to lie on. • A light blanket or jumper for the evening air. • Eye covering or small pillow for comfort. • Water. • Comfortable, warm clothing. (If you forget a mat, I’ll have a few spares with me 😊). **Arriving Late.** Arriving a few minutes early helps you settle in and ground before we begin. If you’re running late, please still join, just slip in quietly when you arrive. You won’t disturb the practice 😊 **Everyone is Welcome.** Whether you’re easing into the year, feeling unsure about what’s ahead, or simply wanting a calm and grounding way to begin the months ahead, this space is for you. **\-\-\-\-\-\- Quik** **Update -** This is my last session before I leave for India, I will be back around the end of February and will re-start sessions when I am home. I’ve made an Instagram where I’ll share future meditation updates and things I find grounding. I’ll also post a few moments while I’m in India, if you feel like staying in touch there. **Link : [https://linktr.ee/Captureyourlight**](https://linktr.ee/Captureyourlight**)** **My Meetup Meditation and Yoga Group link - Where I post more regularly:** https://www.meetup.com/free-mindful-yoga-sessions-melbourne-meetup-group **😊**✨ ------\*\* **I look forward to sharing this session with you 🌿✨** **Kathy.**

You are warmly invited to this immersive evening of Authentic Relating. This evening will involve fun and interactive exercises based around exploring the theme, "What is like to be in connection with myself and others?" This is a space for exploring feelings, sensations, boundaries, and self-expression through immersive exercises. This is about empathic collaboration and learning the art of expressing what is present in the moment. These beautiful practices really encourage an experience of increased depth and awareness, in a way that is sometimes not available in our everyday lives. The exercises work by creating a framework to explore communication in a non-scripted, in the moment way, which edges away from habitual patterns of relating and welcomes in more life, more breath, and more empathy. One of the benefits of practices, is that it helps with learning to become more aware of ourselves and others and how do we inter-relate. \*\*\*NOTE: It is recommended that participants have some experience introspection and shadow work, through participating in counselling, sharing circles, meditation, contemplation, yoga, or any modality that is designed to bring people into contact with their unconscious. This is stated as a duty of care, as the practices in authentic relating revolve around meeting ourselves deeply and coming into contact with how we are occurring the world. This process can be beautifully enlivening, and at times confronting, but the space is guided in such a way that it brings as much holding, and gentleness to the process as to make those courageous steps to share deeply, easier. If you are new to Authentic Relating or "AR" (as people in the community refer to it) and you have any questions or curiosities, please feel free to contact me via messenger for a chat. Also, there is a plenty of YouTube results for Authentic Relating practices. \*\*\* \*If you are experiencing financial hardship and wish to attend, please reach out and we can arrange something. \*\*please read Eventbrite details to. \*\*you cannot attend without pre-purchasing a ticket through the Eventbrite link. \*\*The doors for the event close 15 minuets after the start time, meaning, no entry is allowed once we have set the container, and spoken about the agreements, so please make the appropriate arrangements to arrive on time. About me. I've had a long history of interest in understanding my mind through various means of enquiry from Meditation, Yoga, Transpersonal Counselling, Sound Healing and Neurofeedback. In the last 8 years I have been deeply involved in the Authentic Relating movement immersing myself in practices and deriving tremendous insight into myself a growth within my own personal relationships as a result of this work. I have been facilitating groups to journey deeply into this work for the last 4 years and I am continually on a journey of getting to know myself deeper and bring artistry and humility to facilitating. The event will finish at 5PM with a 10-minuet buffer at the end in case we go over, there will be spare time to hang around and chat after. There will also be a 15-minute break in the middle of the event, with some small snacks provided.

What is Anxiety? Free educational only meetup. All to many people experience anxiety symptoms. Some have it once in a while whilst all too many others continue to experience more then is considered healthy. Without factual knowledge about how the mind works anxiety can be experienced by any of us and strike at any time. Therefore all people are encouraged to attend. Today's meetup is not to diagnose, treat or cure. Its educational. So would you not like to know what anxiety is? and what it is you can actually do about all your unwanted conditions so that you can be free. The education shared today is not related to Faith, Psychology or Psychiatry. It's related to Dianetics the Modern Science of Mental Health. By L. Ron Hubbard. If you ever felt there was something holding you back in life, ruining your plans and stopping you from being who you want to be, you were right. The Answers related to any condition that you don't like about yourself and want to handle can be found in this book. ***** What is Anxiety? Every problem can have a YES, a NO or a MAYBE as its answer. A person is as sane as he has YESES and NOES and as he does not have MAYBES. The number of maybes which a person is carrying in his mind is directly proportional to the extreme foolishness or irrationality which he is demonstrating. Now, you get what i mean? A fellow says "well, I- shall I go downtown? If he says yes or no, he gets action or no action. If he says maybe, he gets turbulence. Now, life consists of action or no action - just these two things. And as a result you get turbulence when a state of beingness or a state of not -beingness cannot be entered with regards to any particular subject. "Was it my fault or wasn't it my fault?" is the toughest of those problems. "Was she to blame or wasn't she to blame?" And when these things hang up on maybes on major problems, an individual becomes uncertain. Anxiety is simply the state of maybeness. It's "what will happen if ...?" That's Anxiety. "What will happen if....?" A person then doesn't have a yes or a no. He has an inaction category which is a turbulent category. (Category here means each of a possibly exhaustive set of classes among which all things might be distributed.) He does not dare act because he does not have an answer. The smooth functioning of a mind, reaction time, the ability of an individual to be decisive and therefore to be in action, is dependent upon his capability of handling problems in yes or no categories. You want to get an individual unstuck, clean up his maybes Now there are several ways to clean up maybes. One of them is just get him to face the problem with current data. that's all. Face the problem with current data and reevaluate and re predict from the point where he hung up in the maybe. He made a decision once: was it right one or the wrong one? And that is the start of the maybes. He made the decision once: was it the right one or the wrong one? Now he gets afraid to make decisions, so he hangs these decisions up in maybe, and there's the anatomy of it. ***** All people of goodwill are welcome at this meetup or at any time. We are open 7 days each week 9am till 10pm Monday till Friday and Saturday and Sunday 9am till 6pm You may also wish to tune into Scientology network TV at www.scientolgy.tv If you feel too anxious to attend or can simply not be their at this time than call or SMS us on 0412 812 611.
