This 4.5 day workshop is a focused opportunity to explore an aspect of our Essence or True Nature – Authentic Compassion – compassion to ourselves, compassion to others, and towards existence, often referred to as the Green Essence.

The human heart offers an incredible ability to hold all that life brings including joy, love, pain and suffering. Yet we often block this ability as we refuse to embrace the difficult feelings. Disconnection, heartache and fear are feelings we want to avoid and yet by courageously stepping fully into these difficult feelings we can begin to experience the incredible depth and strength of the heart and what lies underneath these experiences… love, caring, kindness and the deep and profound experience and knowing that we are fully connected and part of the amazing mystery of life.

Through teachings, inquiry work, meditations and sharing we will explore, the blocks and barriers that stop us from standing in our grounded presence and in so doing we can begin to awaken our compassion and loving kindness towards all that life may bring.
