A Course in Miracles
2020-08-06 11:00 - 12:00
A Course in Miracles with Life Coach Lisa Liss
Every Thursday from 11:00 AM- 12:00 PM (PT)

A Course in Miracles is a 1976 book by Helen Schucman. It is a curriculum for those seeking to achieve spiritual transformation. The underlying premise is that the greatest “miracle” is the act of simply gaining a full “awareness of love’s presence” in one’s own life.
A Course in Miracles defines “miracle” as the conscious choice to make that mind shift, including its non-observable effects on the minds of others. The workbook lessons attempt to train the reader to see oneness in all living things for a steadily increasing time of the day.

About Greg Eckerman:
Greg was Eric’s stepfather. A mechanical engineer by training, Greg left the Aerospace world over 20 years ago to pursue a career in Business Process Improvement, based on training and implementation of Lean Six Sigma methodologies across a wide variety of industries, world-wide.
In 18 years as Eric’s stepdad he had the joy of watching Eric grow into a sensitive, fun-loving, adventurous young man, full of promise and big dreams. He also felt the frustration of watching the corrosive effects of Eric’s opioid addiction through repeated cycles of recovery and relapse.
Since Eric’s death, Greg has worked to comprehend what happened and try to find a way to honor Eric by doing something positive with his grief. He still has more questions than answers. He wrestles frequently with the concerns and guilt over what he didn’t do that he could have and did do that he shouldn’t have and the limitations, real and self-imposed, of the step parent’s role.

Singalong Happy Hour
All Are Welcome!
with Tina Allgeier and April Boyden

Grab a beverage and join us for a fun hour of virtual singing and laughing to help us break up the monotony of being self-quarantined. Music has long been used to help relieve grief and help us feel better. Studies show that music and singing promotes an opportunity for reflection while also creating a sense of community, culture, and spirituality which are essential to dealing with grief. This singalong is not intended to be music therapy, but rather a fun night to singalong with others as we share our common experiences of loss.
NO SINGING EXPERIENCE NEEDED AND YOU CAN MUTE YOUR MIC IF YOFU LIKE!

A Course in Miracles- June 4, 2020
2020-06-04 11:00 - 12:00
A Course in Miracles with Life Coach Lisa Liss
Every Thursday from 11:00 AM- 12:00 PM (PT)

A Course in Miracles is a 1976 book by Helen Schucman. It is a curriculum for those seeking to achieve spiritual transformation. The underlying premise is that the greatest “miracle” is the act of simply gaining a full “awareness of love’s presence” in one’s own life.
A Course in Miracles defines “miracle” as the conscious choice to make that mind shift, including its non-observable effects on the minds of others. The workbook lessons attempt to train the reader to see oneness in all living things for a steadily increasing time of the day.
