Conversations with Plato: The Republic
**For those who want to go deeper…**
Why does a philosopher from over 2,000 years ago still matter today?
In this course, we explore Plato’s *Republic* not as an academic text, but as a living guide to understanding ourselves and the world we’re in. At a time when life can feel fast, uncertain, and often overwhelming, these teachings offer something steady, clear, and deeply relevant.
Together, we examine timeless questions around truth, justice, and wisdom — and why ancient insights may be more important now than ever. What does it mean to live well in today’s world? How do we stay grounded amidst noise, pressure, and constant change?
Classes are interactive and guided by experienced facilitators who are long-time students of the School. As a not-for-profit community, all facilitators volunteer their time, sharing something they continue to explore in their own lives.
This is not about studying philosophy.
It’s about using it.
Try it out for one-week on Saturday April 25th, if you enjoy it, join the 8-week course
meeting Saturdays from 1:30-3pm at 29 Madison Ave in Toronto. [Sign-up here.](https://schoolofpracticalphilosophy.ca/special-courses/)

**WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:**
I first met you in 2012 and was introduced to Zen and Qigong. Before I moved away in 2019, I think I attended every Qigong class and 'Tea Circle' I could fit in. I so 'enjoyed' it all!!! These Teachings gifted me with insights and tools that changed my life in ways that I never thought possible. During the last two years... because of these tools... I was 'graced' to be able to breathe into the fear and face the cancer diagnosis together with the courage to go through the cancer treatments. Sunim... I have deep appreciation and gratitude for all that you taught me... thank YOU - Patricia ❤️

Mushroom Medicine Ceremony "Express Yourself"
*This ceremony will be held at our beautiful studio*
*'The Soul Sanctuary'in Leslieville, Toronto*
***Hosted by Chris Dub & Jennifer Mya.***
**Do you want to:**
* Love yourself the way you are, and feel more confident to show people the real you?
* Experience less anxiety, more joy, and move through triggers with more ease and grace?
* Forgive your past self, and move forward feeling empowered by your choices?
* Be held and guided as you look at negative thought patterns, so you can work through the outdated beliefs associated with them?
* Free yourself from worry, and self-doubt, and receive practical tools to pull out the roots of depression?
* Have a life changing spiritual experience, feel incredible gratitude for everything that has brought you to this point, and become the creator of your life moving forward?
**Join us, dear Soul.**
The time is now to rise up into your most empowered Self. To love, forgive, and have unconditional self compassion, unlearning the ways you've been taught to judge your emotions, thoughts, and desires.
***When you feel unconditionally loved and supported, you can more easefully bring forward the gifts you came here to share, and the purpose you came here to fulfill.***
The mind can distract you, and make you question your access to this unconditional love, but when you touch the source of it within you, it clarifies any confusion and you remember that it is your birthright.
***This ceremony is an opportunity to open your heart, and gain control of the mind.***
**Forgive yourself at the deepest level, and allow gratitude to guide you toward freedom.**
When you forgive yourself and those around you, your power flows back into you. Gratitude is the open door to freedom and abundance, and ***when you recognize the gifts of the lessons life has given you - it becomes easier to let go of anger, resentment, and regret***.
As you unravel what has been held and blocked within you, there is a natural alchemy that takes place within the body. Energy that's become stagnant is unfurled, allowing you to open to your natural confidence, peace, and vitality.
***We create and hold you in a loving space to heal and process through old traumas, ancestral karma, and to become more astutely aware of ego identification, leading to freedom, peace, and simplicity.***
**Release negative thought patterns, and rewire your nervous system for harmony and balance.**
This ceremony is a safe space for you to look at the negative thoughts and limiting beliefs that hold you back from feeling your freest, clearest, most fully expressed self. Regulate your system through the awareness of breath, body (all levels - mental, emotional, physical & energetic), your 5 senses, and extrasensory perceptions.
***As you re-balance and re-align your system you will be able to see your internal experience more clearly, and also recognize why other people are the way they are, allowing you to have more compassion and forgiveness both for others and yourself.***
The more ***aware*** you are, the better ***regulated*** you are, and from that space you can become the master of your domain. You deserve the space and time to simply be, rest, rejuvenate, and feel the aliveness of living life moment by moment for YOU!
**You are fully supported throughout the entire journey.**
This ceremony includes the optional combination of pure MDMA along with the psilocybin mushrooms. We have found these medicines work very synergistically together, and offer an amplified level of heart opening. The pure MDMA is optional, and the dosing for both medicines will be based upon your intentions, disposition, prior experience, and current state at the time of the ceremony.
After this ceremony you will feel more love for yourself and others, with a heightened sense of courage, strength, and integrity. ***You will want to make better choices, and also have the self-awareness needed to stay accountable to yourself.*** This level of love and clarity will emanate out to reach and impact all those closest to you.
***This is an invitation to open up your heart, and love and forgive yourself through unconditional acceptance. To awaken to your divinity and beauty, and access your greatest gifts of self-healing and conscious creatorship.***
**Ceremony Preparation & Integration**
Prior to the ceremony you will receive an in-depth **plant medicine workbook** to help you prepare, questions to ask yourself and a recommended diet to support your experience.
We will meet as a group before the ceremony for an **Intention Setting Call**, to connect with each other and share our intentions for the journey. You will also receive a **nervous system regulating practice** that supports in expanding internal awareness, grounding, centering and overall mindfulness.
Following the Ceremony we will have an **Integration Call** to support and hold space for continued breakthroughs, challenges and dream weaving.

BLUE LOTUS + Life Force & Light Language Activation
Beautiful soul,
I am holding a Blue Lotus Tea and Life force, Light Language and Light Body Activation.
Spots, are limited - the last few events were sold out. Join me if you feel the call.
**Why Blue Lotus?**
**Healing Powers**
* **Nervous System Regulation:** Blue Lotus acts as a natural nervous system stabilizer, calming anxiety, stress, and overactive mental chatter.
* **Physical Healing:** Traditionally used to relieve physical ailments, including muscle cramps (menstrual pain), heart palpitations, and gastrointestinal issues.
* **Antioxidant Properties:** It contains flavonoids that protect cells from damage and act as anti-inflammatories.
**Manifestation Powers**
* **Amplification of Intention:** Blue Lotus is used to amplify manifestations, particularly those related to self-love, emotional healing, and spiritual insight.
* **Flow State:** The plant is believed to help individuals access and activate a flow state, aligning them with the universe to manifest their deepest desires and open new beginnings.
* **Heart-Opening:** The alkaloids interact with dopamine receptors to soften the heart, allowing for a "gentle surrender" that lets the invisible become visible, a key principle of manifestation.
**In-Person Light Body Expansion Activation**
Join us for a powerful in-person Light Body Expansion Activation — an immersive energetic experience designed to awaken your life force energy and expand your consciousness.
This session combines **Kundalini (life force) Activation and Light Language transmission**, creating a space where deep healing, emotional release, and expanded awareness can unfold naturally. As you lie comfortably on your mat, you will receive a transmission of energy that supports the awakening of your own inner life force and the expansion of your energetic body.
Participants often enter deep meditative or altered states as the body responds to the vibrational frequencies of sound, energy, and light language. These frequencies communicate directly with your consciousness, activating the body’s innate intelligence and natural healing capacity.
This experience supports a deeper connection to your authentic self while helping release energetic blockages and limiting patterns.
**During the session you will experience:**
• A heart-opening ceremony to deepen connection and receptivity
• Demonstration of the activation process
• Full Light Body Expansion Activation energy transmission
• Light Language channeling and vibrational sound frequencies
• Somatic and energetic release as the body responds to the energy
• Closing integration and sharing circle
**Participants may experience:**
• Spontaneous body movements or energetic sensations
• Emotional release such as laughter, tears, or deep peace
• Visual or intuitive insights
• Expanded states of consciousness

**Potential benefits:**
• Release of emotional and energetic blockages
• Expansion of awareness and consciousness
• Greater intuition and clarity
• Reconnection with your inner guidance and purpose
• Increased creativity, joy, and emotional freedom
All you need to do is lie down, relax, and allow the energy to guide the experience.

We are excited to host Guided Meditations on Sundays at 6 pm in our Ashram/Gallery/Home! !! !!
Everyone wants to know what kind of God we worship and what kind of meditation we do. We worship the GOD that LOVES US! We understand that god is an energy and it lives in us as us. Our meditations guide others to actually experience that energy! xoxo We don't just talk about peace, love and affection, we experience it :)
Also we are a home not a business, so we enjoy building community one friend at a time. We always build in time for people to mingle & develop friendships! xoxo Much Love, Frank Tennyson
Namaste, Frank Tennyson

Sunday funday: let's play dodgeball at Scioto Audubon park
Dodgeball is back again!
If you’ve been wanting to come out, this is an easy one to join. We’ll be playing for about 1.5 to 2 hours, you do not need to bring any equipment, and no experience is needed.
We use a specific set of rules and equipment to make the games run better and keep them fun for everybody, not just people who already know how to play.
If it rains, the event will be canceled.
