Boundaries As a Spiritual Practice- Not Just a Communication Skill
Rogue Valley Metaphysical Library, 1757 Ashland St, Ashland, OR, USFREE ADMISSION – 1757 Ashland St., Ashland, OR. One mile west of I-5 Exit 14.
What if boundaries weren’t about pushing people away, but about coming home to yourself? Explore boundaries as a deeply spiritual practice- one that shapes your energy, your relationships, and the reality you experience.
Most people think of boundaries as something you say. But in truth, your boundaries are something you embody. Many people struggle with boundaries in ways that feel familiar, saying yes when they mean no, avoiding conflict, feeling guilty for having needs, or knowing what to say but not feeling strong enough to hold the line.
When your boundaries are unclear, you may find yourself over-giving, overwhelmed, or quietly resentful. But when they’re rooted in self-worth and aligned with your inner truth, something powerful happens: you begin to feel grounded, clear, and fully expressed.
Boundaries are more than communication, they’re a spiritual practice. They invite you to listen inward, trust what you feel, and honor what matters to you. And when you do, your life begins to shift, not through force, but through alignment. Your relationships, your energy, and your reality start to reflect the truth you’re finally willing to stand in.
Blending modern psychology, somatic awareness, and metaphysical principles, Lorie shares how boundaries influence your nervous system, your subconscious patterns, and even the energetic field around you.
In this presentation, you’ll discover:
• Why boundaries are an essential part of spiritual growth, not just communication skills.
• How people-pleasing and overgiving disconnect you from your authentic self.
• The energetic and somatic signals that indicate a boundary is needed.
• How to hold boundaries with clarity, calm, and self-trust.
• Why aligned boundaries create more ease, respect, and fulfillment in your life.This is not about becoming rigid or closed off; it’s about becoming aligned. Because when you honor what matters to you, your life begins to reflect it in your decisions, your relationships, and how you spend your time and energy.

The Great Upwising & Cosmic Comic Consciousness with Steve Bhaerman
Rogue Valley Metaphysical Library, 1757 Ashland St, Ashland, OR, USFREE ADMISSION – 1757 Ashland St., Ashland, OR. One mile west of I-5 Exit 14.
In the midst of the “bipolar insanity” that has captured our social discourse, there is an awakening taking place. Like the imaginal cells inside the chrysalis that inevitably become the butterfly, there’s an emerging coherence that isn’t on the radar yet, but will be.
Steve Bhaerman aka Swami Beyondananda, humorist and “uncommontator” will offer these “signs of the upwising,” threads of love and functionality that are starting to weave themselves into a “whole cloth movement.” Among these are projects that have succeeded in places as diverse as Sri Lanka, and Reno, Nevada that follow an “ancient blueprint” that ground spiritual principles into feet-on-the-ground reality, and a promising new platform to “bring left and right front and center to face the music and dance together.”
Steve will also show how humor, what he calls “cosmic comic consciousness,” can heal the heart and free the mind, and lift us above the dueling dualities battlefield onto a win-win playing field.
You’ll laugh while you learn, and learn while you laugh!
For more than 40 years, Steve Bhaerman has used humor to inspire personal and social transformation through his comedic alter ego, Swami Beyondananda. An author, humorist, and evolutionary solutionary, his work has been described as “comedy disguised as wisdom, and wisdom disguised as comedy.” Marianne Williamson has called him “the Mark Twain of our times.” He is currently bringing his unique blend of humor and insight to his “Swami for Precedent” campaign, dedicated to creating political climate change — warmer hearts and cooler heads
On the more serious side, Steve has co-authored Spontaneous Evolution with cellular biologist Bruce H. Lipton, and has launched his Signs of the Upwising podcast on Substack
