What does it mean to be oneself? To be real? With so much to do and so much internal and external noise, what helps us to settle and simply be?
Join us to explore how nature impacts and reflects our realness using the introductory teachings and techniques of the Diamond Approach®.
There is nothing like the simplicity of being oneself - settling into yourself, just being there. All of the inner journey comes down to this: that we are able to be genuinely what we are. — A. H. Almaas
