Broken Hallelujah
I had no idea what lay behind the tight, controlling anger bubbling underneath the surface of my being. As I delicately pealed back the layers with inquiry, grief, shame and intimacy were yearning for union with me.
The Dark Night of the Soul online book launch
At this online book launch, Jen and Fiona talk about many aspects of the dark night of the soul, including the falling apart of the mask or adapted self, the pull to withdraw from the matrix of oppression, the challenge of staying with our nervous systems, and the richness of deep honesty. This discussion will be of interest to anyone who is going through or has gone through a dark night of the soul, spiritual emergency or crisis, or some kind of awakening journey.
Now Exercise
Lisa leads us through the N.O.W. tool in a guided rest exercise, practicing opening to and welcoming sensations, thoughts, and images in our experience.
Rest in the Gap
When we stop to rest, to see what’s here, sometimes what we find is nothing, or the perception of space. Suddenly it’s quiet, as opposed to the chaos we’re used to. Sometimes, when we find no-thing, quiet, we get scared because we want to find something- something that we think means… well, something. Because we live in a thing based and a thing filled reality, finding no-thing or quiet can be disturbing.

There’s not a 12 step program exclusively for peacemakers, but you can be sure that at every 12 step meeting, in every recovery program, peacemakers and recovering peacemakers will be present. And while being addicted to peacemaking may not have the same stigma or even consequences as being addicted to drugs, sex or gambling, there’s definitely a cost.
If you’re unfamiliar with peacemakers, here are some traits:
No Body Knows What the Fuck is Going On
No Body Knows What the Fuck is Going On
An Equal and Opposite Reaction
Can you imagine what the human experience would be like if it wasn’t so dogged by the near ubiquitous onslaught of predatory capitalism and those who are most invested in its continuation?
Nervous System
Lisa leads a guided 16 minute rest exploring sensations in the body using awareness of different parts of the body and the breath.
