Lately I have been engaged with several conversations about the intersection of trauma and spiritual awakening. Through these conversations there has been exploration of the word "trauma" - what does it mean? The exploration has opened into "traumatic reaction" and "inflamed nervous system response".

How then does identity as "the one who has these reactions" sometimes keep us in a loop of suffering and perhaps in a story of "failure" and "not awake"?

What is whole and silent, free and untouched by all reactivity, all identity, all story? As we meet what is whole and untouched within us, as we rest as this presence - knowing it to be who we are - how does that shift the experience of the reactivity? Is there more space for it to be met and held and attended to just as it is?

Please join me in this exploration Saturday May 1st at 10 am Mountain time.
