Working Through our Ambivalence around Valuing Attachment and Connection
A Guided Meditation Workshop
Half-day Online Meditation Workshop- Date: Saturday, 6th Apr 2024
- Instructor: Cedric Reeves
- Cost: Sliding scale $30 ~ $120
Join us for this workshop we will 1) seek to understand our reasons for not valuing attachment and connection, 2) relate these reasons back to memories mostly in childhood, and 3) work to process and integrate those memories through guided meditations
The intended outcome is to understand our valid reasons for not valuing attachment (like having been abused, rejected, abandoned, deceived, etc) and integrate and heal these memories, setting in the past what is passed.
This program is for people who feel ambivalent about attachment and connection and want to heal these wounds in order to fully value and participate in meaningful connection.
