End of Isolation.
Connection to the Real

A 3-days workshop with Nishant Matthews

Isolation is a common experience for many of us. In isolation, we feel alone and separate and not so sure of ourselves and our connections with the world.

When we open our heart to isolation, we see it as a way of coping with the shocks and wounds of daily life. As children we learned to create a separate, private world where we feel good, and then we practice going into our separate world for the remainder of our lives, even well into adult times.

As we come to live in isolation, we lose contact with the realness of what is around us and also the realness of our own inner nature. We learn to substitute fantasy for fact. We live in a world that we create, and lose the support and light of what actually is.

In this workshop, we will be learning to recover our link with the Real. In so doing, we will find new alternatives for daily living. We will find heartskills for releasing out of isolation and ways into the clear, vital energy of the Real. As we do this, we learn to take our place in the world of the Real; we become part of the Real world and understand that we are part of its design, that we have a place in it.

As we come to take our place in the Real world, something happens to our heart. It expands and feels its longing being answered. There is a sense of strength as the Real flows through us. There is also a sense of joy and delight in life as the Real nourishes us and renews us and takes us into a world far richer than what we could ever create for ourselves.
