An Evening of Awakening with Cathy Wurzer and author Catherine Duncan
We’re yearning for more peace, love, meaning, and embodied aliveness. We’re yearning for awakening. Awakening is often portrayed as mysterious, complicated, and dramatic or something that requires traveling to a distant country and sitting at the feet of an enlightened guru. But it’s actually something we can choose to do, by engaging Five Simple and Profound Practices:
- Coming back to the present moment
- Connecting with something greater
- Growing our trust
- Embodying love
- Holding openness
We welcome people of all ages interested in personal growth, self-awareness, and mindfulness. This event is for all individuals starting their journey of self-discovery through those wanting to age gracefully and live fully.
Every day Awakening integrates the best of spirituality, neuroscience, psychology, and therapy so you can change how you embrace every day, every moment, and every choice.
Every Day is a day to feel vibrantly alive.
It is a decision to live fully until the moment we die.
Your Everyday Awakening is right in front of you.
