Centering prayer and meditation are age-old techniques to put us in touch with what Jesus called ruha in Aramaic, the holy breath, the living and animating field that gives birth to self, to seed, storm and stellar nebulae. But what if there were an entire terrain of spiritual perception, a fluid continuum mapped by mystics, saints and shamans, a living world that perceives us, inviting us into our deepest longing?

Cynthia Bourgeault writes, "The imaginal is that quality of aliveness moving through this realm, interpenetrating, cohering, filling things with the fragrance of implicit meaning whose lines do not converge in this world alone but at a point beyond.” During this three day online intensive we will explore practices and group work that will help us deepen into different centering prayer practices exploring what Islamic scholar Henri Corbin called the Imaginal World.

This introductory program will meet you wherever you are at in your own practice and hopefully expand and deepen your own journey offering practical seedings and practices you can further develop.
