Awakening the Heart


  • Esalen Institute 55000 California 1 Big Sur, CA, 93920 United States (map)

This workshop is designed to support us as we open to our own goodness and learn practices to awaken love in others. Based on timeless Buddhist principles, as well as key findings in modern neuroscience, we will explore how to cultivate and sustain certain wholesome states, which, through practice, become the perspective we embody.

By awakening our hearts, we have the power to affect both ourselves and others in a profound way. With practical and accessible exercises and teachings, we will explore the full spectrum of the awakened heart. We’ll discover ways to love ourselves and extend that love into our relationships so that we can truly delight in the joy of others.

During our time together, we will:

Study the science behind real happiness.

Discover healthier habits and beliefs through powerful awareness practices.

Embrace and be embraced by a supportive community.

Learn tools for a solid mindfulness practice.

Finally, we’ll explore freely expressing our capacity for compassionate action in a spirit of contribution. In this way, our own awakening heart becomes a gift to our troubled world. Join us as we practice and explore together!
