Description

What would it be like to allow your deepest pain without struggle or avoidance? In this inspiring series of talks and dialogues, Jon invites you to encounter the intense energies of emotional upheaval with tenderness and humanity.To walk through the fire, you must see through your unconscious defense mechanisms, beliefs, and agenda and become fully available for what is.

Freedom involves what you’re going through. It involves all of it with consciousness, with love, with overwhelm, with breakdown, with wanting to run away.

Through touching personal stories and one-on-one interactions, Jon reveals the importance of honoring yourself — allowing you to be you — even through life’s most challenging circumstances.

Quotes From This Gathering

Being here helps. It’s like a fire where you can warm your hands if you’re cold. Or like a hot bath when your bones are aching. And you can just soak, and let go.
The awareness of the struggle is what facilitates the transformation, not your attempt to be transformed.
It’s essential that you not only allow yourself to be human, but that you learn what being human truly is.
Notice if there’s a place you can perceive that is simply open, spacious, allowing attention that has no agenda, no beliefs, no struggle.
We can’t hold on to this existence, but we can keep deepening into consciousness, into love and connection.
