A few quick announcements today:
I love the feedback I’m receiving for the Peaceful Eating guidebook, keep it coming: what is most helpful, what is not necessary, what your questions are.
Click HERE to get it now, and to get updates on recovery from more extreme painful eating issues and the development of a new teleclass program. There is no obligation to participate in any program offered…I would simply love your help by hearing your desires and questions.
ALSO: There is one space open for someone who is at a basic experienced level of The Work in the Year of Inquiry YOI programthat started last September. A rare opportunity. We’re entering the month of January with the topic: MONEY.
What is YOI? I call it Yoi Joy for fun.
It’s NOT just for joy though. It’s for the investigation of reality.
We spend every month on a new topic, with a new focus, doing The Work together, inquiring into our stressful beliefs, changing our worlds, connecting with deep honest intimacy. Our commitment is to examine what’s going on when we don’t want to allow what is.
Not just allow….but love what is. Like the book title “Loving What Is” by Byron Katie (required reading for the group).
Someone in YOI said this group becomes your pit crew, as Annie Lamott calls it….your support team in inquiry.
Unlike the people with whom you interact in your daily life, the primary sharing is the most stressful, dreadful, embarrassing, upsetting beliefs running through the mind….
….and then of course, The Work on those same beliefs.
If you’d like to join in with this current group, hit reply to write me. Our meetings are Thursdays, Pacific time 5:15-6:45 pm.
If you’d like to start from the very beginning for the Year of Inquiry, another YOI group 2014 will begin soon Fridays at 9:00 am Pacific time.
And on this day with simple announcements here in Grace Notes (I will be back tomorrow with written inquiry) I send a little preview about looking ahead into a new year, a new time, a new life, new goals, whatever is coming…..
….with no hope.
Yes, chuckling here. You read that right.
Even with all the awareness we have of time passing, of futures and pasts and wondering what’s coming up, or what that thing that occurred last week was all about……
….I wish you the deepest rest and relaxation right as you read this, right now.
Letting everything be the way it is for today.
“Letting there be room for not knowing is the most important thing of all. When there’s a big disappointment, we don’t know if that’s the end of the story. It may just be the beginning of a great adventure. Life is like that. We don’t know anything. We call something bad; we call it good. But really we just don’t know.” ~ Pema Chodron
Heaven to be in group inquiry:
“I love that I have to EXPERIENCE the Work, have to DO it, to be IN it. And when I do The Work – surprise! – I am letting go into the moment. I’ve been at it for a few years now, here and there, sometimes frequently/intensely, sometimes not for weeks or even months. And here we are in this terrific group. Heaven.”
~ YOI Group Participant
With much love, Grace
