Conditions of the Human HeartWe spend so much of our lives listening to our thoughts and forget our other ways of knowing - our intuition, soul, body and heart. Despite our desire to be rational beings, research shows that it is our emotions that give us the energetic lift we need to make decisions in life. In this session we will focus on listening deeply to what is in our hearts for what is in our hearts will shape how we live.

Rhythms of the Human Heart : Desires“Desire is the quickening of the heart that calls forth change… There should always be a healthy tension between the life we have settled for and the desires that still call us. In this sense, our desires are the messengers of our unlived life, calling us to attention and action while we still have the time here to explore fields where the treasure dwells!”
