Please check the Calendar on the Home Page for current offerings.
“There is a Secret One inside us – the planets in all the galaxies pass through his/her hands like beads…” Kabir
Sufism is not a religion, but a spiritual path. It is an exploration of the inner life experienced by mystics all over the world. The inner life is the life of the soul, felt in a unique way by each of us. To awaken to our inner life is to expand our sense of identity as well as to deepen our sense of peace, and to nurture balance in our lives, aiming towards the One, the Perfection of Love, Harmony and Beauty…
This group explores the ancient wisdom of the Sufis with particular reference to the challenges of our time. Programs may include guided meditations, listening to music, singing, dances for Universal Peace, exploring the poetry of Rumi, Hafiz, and others, sharing experiential exercises to increase our Healing capacity as well as the study of specific teachings on topics pertinent to our daily lives.
One evening a month is dedicated to a healing focus ( 2ndThursdays) and one to a “Harmony Session” where we joinin sacred songs and chants from around the world ( 4thThursdays) – participants are invited to bring musical instruments or their favorite sacred poems…
Come and check this out – everyone is welcome!

Next she is feeling inspired to offer “Three Journeys– a supercharged vacation at home “ Dream Journey with a plant spirit, Ocean Journey with the dolphins and whales (guided visualization) and a Journey to the Sun ( guided meditation from the mystic tradition ).
