Physically and energetically, the powerful force
of attraction is constantly grabbing us and
forcing us to pay attention to something outside
ourselves.
Often we try to ignore what attracts us. Sometimes we take the opposite path
and pursue an attraction we know isn't good for us.
Yet every attraction -- whether it's to a person, an object, or a cause -- is
trying to awaken some aspect of our soul.
In this workshop we explore how to let our attractions feed and nourish us
instead of eating us alive. Looking beneath the surface of what seduces us,
we discover a deeper longing for meaning and purpose in our life.
With two teachers who have independently pioneered new ways of working
with the roots and possibilities of attraction you will:
Discover how the loves that open (and sometimes break) your heart
are actually vital to the joyous expansion of your whole self
Learn how to pay attention to what's calling your heart and soul,
not just your libido
Examine the pitfalls, limitations, and triumphs that can arise
when you allow yourself to pursue your attraction
Take the first steps toward following your
attractions in fruitful ways instead of letting
them eat you alive
