We invite you to join us for two Inquiry Intensives that will deepen your capacity to inquire with the unique support of an international group of other inquiry practitioners and two long-time Diamond Approach teachers, Sandra Maitri and Jessica Britt. You can register for one weekend intensive or both sets of weekend intensives. 

"Allowing Our Experience" Inquiry Intensive with Sandra Maitri

July 14 & 15, 2018
10:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. Pacific Time
To find your local time, you can use this Time Zone Converter.

In this Inquiry Intensive we will practice inquiry to explore the reasons we close ourselves off from certain categories of experience, what we need to understand to open to these experiences, and what results from moving through this process.  

In this Inquiry Intensive with Sandra Maitri, you'll be guided to... 
– Explore the role of how your internal perspective on how you think you should be can interfere with open-ended inquiry
– Understand what types of experiences people tend to avoid
– Discover what results when you open to what is present and why this is crucial to inquiry that unlocks inner potential 

"Engaging our Experience: Body, Breath, and Being" Inquiry Intensive with Jessica Britt

August 11 & 12, 2018
10:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. Pacific Time
To find your local time, you can use this Time Zone Converter.

In this Inquiry Intensive, we will deepen into the practice of inquiry through the exploration of a key ingredient of the Diamond Approach inquiry practice: the breath. Inquiry is a dynamic living process, and central to this vitality is our relationship to our breathing bodies. By opening up to the recognition of ourselves as a living, breathing consciousness, our capacity to inquire deepens into the very substance of our experience and our consciousness is enhanced. 

In this Inquiry Intensive with Jessica Britt, you'll be guided to... 
– Explore what limits the breath and how that serves one's personality
– Understand the function of breath as a support for an engaged Inquiry
– Discover how to engage the breath as a support for one's Presence 

The online Intensives include:

Each Inquiry Intensive includes two, three-hour LIVE video gatherings that will take place on the Zoom video conferencing platform with Sandra Maitri (in July) or Jessica Britt (in August), offering: 

– Two teaching sessions with Sandra Maitri or Jessica Britt
–  Two online inquiry sessions  with other participants from all over the world
– Two Q&A sessions with Sandra Maitri or Jessica Britt
– An Online Community Forum to find inquiry partners 

The webcasts will be recorded and distributed to participants, so you can watch later if you are unable to attend live.     

Audience:

These Intensives are appropriate for participants with at least some prior experience with Diamond Approach inquiry, either through our online courses on inquiry or participation in previous Diamond Approach events, groups, or retreats that included inquiry.
