Spiritual Guidance

There comes a point when a pursuit for inner freedom supersedes external goal fulfilment. It is at this point that most can be gained - or lost - from working with a spiritual teacher.

Sessions are intended to be unburdening. What is unburdening at any moment will depend on the individual, as each individual will be ready/keen to see and remove certain 'weights' at certain times.

Freeing for one person, for example, may be to recognise that 'values' are not real, and defining/having/living by values is a barrier to knowing themselves. Free from the concept of values, their focus is on the experience/sense of a situation, rather than what the mind is telling them to do in the limiting context of ‘living up to their values’.

For many, distinguishing between what is and what things look like, is a major area of spiritual development. For example, there are many behaviours that whilst look/are labelled polite, nice or kind, are experienced as controlling, manipulative, wanting etc. Similarly, behaviours which are experienced as controlling are often excused with the narrative that the person is direct, strong-minded, ‘knows who they are’ etc.

Whatever we explore, the point is that we connect - with ourselves, each other and whatever comes to light. As we connect, we experience Self, love, joy, openness, peace etc through/with the other, and the heaviest burden of all - the burden of separation - dissolves into the connection.

There's no charge for sessions.
