What it is

A place to rest,
and to remember.

Something in you already knows that the stories you've been handed—about what life is for, what the body is, what progress means, what you're supposed to want—no longer quite fit. You may not yet have the language for what you sense. You may simply be tired of frameworks that leave something essential out.

Solid Ground is a free quarterly gathering, held virtually, where we explore a different set of assumptions. There is no agenda beyond arriving, settling, and spending time in the framework of a cosmology that takes the body seriously, honors the intelligence of rest and silence, and understands the universe as alive and worth trusting.

Each gathering begins with a simple practice of arrival. I'll share a bit from within my current thinking and practice about this work and what it's like. There'll be time later for whatever arises in response: questions, connections, or simply the shared experience of being in good company.

The next gathering will be announced here and through the subtle center. You are welcome to come once, or to return whenever you need.
