Volume I Courage & Grace in a World of Conflict

A world in conflict. Life pervaded by technologies indifferent to our physical, mental, and emotional needs. Collective discourse sowing more division than resolution. In spite of it all, our heart never stops longing for purposeful living, deep connections, joy, creativity, rest, and most certainly, peace.
This is the great stirring of the soul.
Honor it and solutions appear where previously they did not. Life brims with meaning, possibility, and initiative. Tune to its life-affirming intelligence and you return once again to a constant source of renewal, and ultimately, the remembrance of grace—the awareness that, no matter what, you are blessed by nature, the Divine.
“Live life fully, courageously. Be regenerative and generous, kind to yourself and others,” your soul beckons. Most significantly, it lights your way to meet each moment fully; it is wholly prepared to guide you to the life you were meant to live. Honor this beckoning of soul and your life fills with meaning and possibility, initiative and wonder.
Anything less disconnects you from your Self and one another. This leads to being overwhelmed by life’s challenges, ruled by anxiety and sadness, exhaustion, distraction, life becoming increasingly burdensome, and a further weakening of your path to freedom.
These three sessions are designed to enliven your resilience and to tap into the boons of timeless wisdom as well as our shared humanity—so critical and yet, in such short supply in today’s world. The aim of Reflections and Timeless Solutions is to help you, individually and collectively, source strength, renewal, and authentic courage—and to return you to the gift that is the remembrance of grace.
Volume II. Crossing the Divides—Within and Without

“Live life fully, courageously. Be regenerative and generous, kind to yourself and others,” your soul beckons. Most significantly, the soul lights your way to meet each moment fully; it is wholly prepared to guide you to the life you were meant to live. —Rod Stryker
“The wings of humankind is its aspiration,” wrote the poet, Rumi. As surely as our heart beats, our aspiration aims at two kinds of fulfillment: one that is wholly pragmatic—i.e., pleasure, love, safety…the desire to have value, and no doubt, material security. The other is the longing to truly rest, to abide in peace, to know enduring wholeness, and to even perhaps directly experience Source.
Two kinds of fulfillment. This first, no matter how much we are satisfied by its gifts, is laced with uncertainty and disappointments. The second—a kind of otherworldly, or even heavenly fulfillment—often seems remote or ever so fleeting.
Our humanity calls us to both kinds of fulfillment as well as to find ways to bridge these two seemingly divergent goals, even as it guides us to heal division—within and without. Despite the challenges, there remains the enduring possibility of resolving all schisms. The endeavor to do is nothing less than the work of becoming fully ourselves. This is what I call: “Crossing the Divides.”
Volume II follows the first Volume of sessions, “Courage and Grace in a World of Conflict,” but it also serves as a stand-alone journey.
