Telegatherings
What
is a telegathering?
A telegathering is simply a gathering of people on
the same telephone call. It's easy, effortless, and efficient.
Why
am I offering telegatherings (as classes or meditations)?
Telegatherings are:
- A wonderful way to link and connect with a
greater circle of
people who are interested in similar areas of focus and growth.
- A great use of technology available to us.
- A 'green' solution to fuel costs and concern
about carbon
footprint.
What
are people saying about Vessel of Voices telegatherings?
A combined response from the first meditation series Winter 2007
- "Being in the comfort and warmth of my own
space
is wonderful;
I feel so safe and there is no anxiety about what others are
doing or thinking about me."
- " I never knew I could meditate easily this
way.
- "I feel like my meditations have become so much
deeper. "This is the first time my meditation has actually served to
change an old fear-based behavior and way of thinking."

Information about Vessel of Voices
Classes in General:

Classes help you tap into the wellspring of creativity and healing
within you. Workshops are designed to immerse you:
- in a profoundly safe, nurturing environment
where you can finally feel free to be authentically you & ‘let
go’
- in the experience of your body’s own natural
movements/messages
- in full exploration of your vocal range,
qualities, tones
- in the delightful discoveries possible in a
field of play & spontaneity
- in an ever-deepening relationship and
‘dialogue’ with the many voices in the chorus of the mind and heart
*Classes
and workshops begin with a circle, allowing time ‘to arrive’ through
breathwork and simple movements to open up. Generally, all gatherings
end with bringing awareness to both the collective and individual
processes; this is often done through sacred sound/chant/song or
meditation.
