Contemplative spirituality is anything that helps us wake up and see more clearly who we are and who God is. 

 - Phileena Nikole

Three-centered awareness is crucial for experiencing Divine Presence;  mind, heart, and body coming on-line and cooperating together.  But too often, we experience shutdown in one or more of these centers.  This limits our capacity for opening to Presence and receiving the integration and wholeness we long for.

Are you curious about the deeper, subtle, life-changing dynamics of contemplative prayer?  Do you feel stuck in your practice and desire to progress?  Are you wondering how to more regularly bring the gifts of your sitting practice into your daily experiences of life and relationships?

If so, join Phileena for this online contemplative experience.  During our time together, Phileena will offer a mix of foundational teaching, guided group contemplation, and three-centered awareness practice.
