Guatemala Retreat - Session 2: October 10th, 2025

An invitation to embody the teachings and practice conscious relating.

- Pure perceiving: just Awareness aware.

- Identification with a conceptual self creates a sense of separation and suffering.

- The state of joy and childlike wonder: can you meet this moment fresh?

- Letting go of trying to get to a past or future moment: this moment is all there is.

- The practice of Embodied Awareness.

- There is no 'I' to get enlightenment: the simplicity of recognizing one’s true nature.

- Hope for humanity: a developmental process informed by the deeper truth.

- It is not circumstances and experiences themselves that create suffering, but identification with a conceptual self and a narrative that things should be different.

- How to deal with challenges in life.

- You are that which perceives and you are not separate from the experience of this moment.

- Peace is the absence of problems: saying yes to this moment.

- Recognizing yourself as Awareness while consciously including the experience of the body.

- Retraining the focus of attention to include the experience of the body: the process can take time and gentleness is key.

- The power of unconditional love.

- Aligned action: accessing and following your intuition.

- Discernment: what feels true in this moment?

- The bike and training wheels analogy: attachment and independence.

- Consistency and dedication to your practice is key.

- Becoming an embodiment of peace: you are a part of conscious awakening.

- Coming out of silence: embodying the teachings is your priority.
