We all have spirit guides. They are part of your soul-family — a spiritual GPS — and tuning into them takes patience, trust, and assistance from the Other Side. Learn to access yours in this deep dive, kind-hearted immersion that welcomes all levels of experience and any stage of healing. This unique class dives deeply into the unseen world of support, healing, and unconditional love by Spirit Guides. Most people are unaware of the guides they are born into this world with, let alone how to connect with them. Yet many of us have experienced a loving presence in critical moments of our lives, or even in the most serene, calm spaces within. What would be possible for your life if you could access that level of support and guidance in a more dependable way?
This special and deeply personal class is designed for those of you who are ready to connect with the Spirits that are always by your side.
Get ready to recognize that you have so much support waiting to assist, support, play, guide, and dance with you as you walk this world. Connecting with your Spirit Guides is a profoundly expansive experience. Once this connection is made, it is forever — giving you the confidence, support, love, guidance, and great joy you deserve and know to be true as you walk onward in your journey of life.
This class is for the experienced spiritual seeker, who is energetically sensitive, open, and curious to experience support beyond the veil.
Months and years after taking this course, graduates continue to share how this experience changed their understanding of everyday reality in invaluable ways.
This course introduces a framework to engage with your guides steadily and reliably and will introduce and connect you with your unique, individual, and personal Spirit Guides. Each session is highly interactive and includes instruction and meditation practice to ensure that your experience is expansive and supportive. With great information and valuable support, you can better focus your energy to live an empowered and compassionate life you love, and the support and love available to you from the unseen world means you are never alone or disconnected.
Previous meditation practice is helpful, but not required.
