Sunday, Back from Colorado

The workshop I did in Colorado was about expanding consciousness and then somehow taking that expanded consciousness back to your daily life and incorporating it.  The expansion itself was challenging. We worked on moving from an "I" centered viewpoint to a "we" centered viewpoint without losing the "I".  I am conscious as I write this of the tribe that I developed there, wondering what Cynthia's doing today; whether Atma and Dana made it to Durango yesterday; how Paul is; what Karen and Gregg talked about as they drove back down to Florida.

The most difficult thing for me during the earliest part of the week was the impending divorce and the move tomorrow and the anger & grief I found as soon as I was a safe distance from home.  The most difficult thing for me as the week moved on was struggling with parent/child dynamics (my father taught the workshop and my mother assisted) and also feeling like some of the meditation techniques were a huge stretch.

Most of the people in the workshop had been doing Corestar work for years.  Most of them were graduates of the 3-year program, and many of them were teachers, either at Corestar or in other energy healing modalities.  I've had the introductory workshop, a 1 day affair, and I've talked to my father during his 18 year journey through the Barbara Brennan Schoolthrough writing his book, through establishing first his healing practice and then his own schoool.  I knew a lot more than I thought I knew (a self-chelation, for example, was not hard--was one of the first things he taught me to do).  And I was familiar enough with the language and systems of Corestar to follow all the information about the 8th, 9th, 10th & 11th levels of the field.  But the meditation practice -- the energy work itself -- that was a stretch, and well-worth the workshop time all on its own.

There is more--a lot more, but I don't have time/space to write it here.  Mostly at this point I'm wondering how to incorporate this stuff in my daily life; how to live it and model it -- particularly during the next two days, when I feel like I'm going to need it the most.  So.  that's the recap (such as it is).  If you want to take me out to coffee or feed me dinner and hear more, email me at mysticsavage at gmail.com.

Love,

Virginia
