💛 Essence Relating • Connecting From Essence Instead of Conditioning

Have you been longing for more depth in your connections?

If you’re interested in awakening, living awake, or are highly sensitive—and want to enjoy being with people more—Essence Relating was created for you. We connect through embodied presence, silence, and the speaking that arises from this. Be aware: tears, laughter, and deep insights are common occurrences.

CLICK HERE to RSVP and receive directions (Clicking on Meetup's RSVP doesn’t send the address.)

Join us and experience what it’s like to abide in the steady fulfillment of your own essence while connecting with others.

This is more than a sharing or authentic relating circle. It’s a deeply intentional space to:

• Embody present moment awareness in connection
• Transform your relational nervous system
• Relate from essence to essence rather than old limiting patterns
• Discover the nourishment that arises when truth is felt and expressed together—through speech and silence.
• Come away with a simple powerful tool to bring what you gain into your daily life.

Join us in this safe space where we deepen awakening and hone the skills for transforming our relating experiences—within the circle, beyond the circle, and with each other.

“I don’t think I have ever felt this at peace in a circle of people.”
—Danae Yume Shanti
