This course is a study of meta-physical Truth principles: the fundamental and ultimate reality of anything. It is based on Dr. H. Emilie Cady’s book, Lessons in Truth: a clear, concise representation of New Thought philosophy and metaphysical Christianity. For more than 100 years, Dr. Cady’s teachings have been the first step for many Unity students on their individual path to claiming their True Self. The class will explore the 12 spiritual concepts outlined in the book, which are designed to teach us how to understand our true nature, increase our personal empowerment and enhance our spiritual growth. At the core of the teachings is the Unity belief that our lives can be transformed by the power of our thoughts, words and beliefs. You will be encouraged to seek your truth within your own heart, and then to apply those truths to every area of your life. Whether you are a long-time Truth student, or are new to Unity metaphysics, you are invited to this journey of self-discovery that is full of rich rewards!
Required texts: Lessons in Truth, Unity Classic Library edition, by H. Emilie Cady, Unity Books.

You’ll learn how to reconnect your spiritual faith to your physical body in order to heal from within.

I AM: OM Healing Meditation and Chanting

Class: 10 a.m. to Noon
Facilitator: Eva Skurow
Minimum suggested love offering: $10-$20
REGISTER TODAY!
In this class, you will learn to use your own sacred voice to align with and deepen your awareness of the Great “I AM” Presence and Power! The two most powerful words you can say are “I AM” and whatever follows them. I AM is the foundation of the OM meditation and chanting. Sound and vibration are the essence of creation, and “OM” is the primordial sound that creates and pervades the entire universe. “OM” is the same frequency as your heart. It is the sound that Mother Earth makes as she rotates around the sun. It is the most ancient sound we know of; some say it is “the sound of God.” When you resonate with I AM, OM, and your own I AM TRUTH, miracles happen!
The OM Healing Meditation will raise your level of inner peace and love, balance you physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually, and help you to achieve a greater level of love and inner peace. In addition, like waves created by a stone thrown into water, the vibrations of the OM sound will ripple into your surroundings to benefit other people and life situations, as well! Come learn to create a sacred space for grace using I AM and OM meditation and chanting!

Loveology: The Art of Outloving One Another

True love is about acceptance: no relationship stays exactly the same or follows the same pattern forever. But for many, the picture of true love is painted in a manner that it’s all one big fantasy come true. While there’s nothing wrong with looking at love this way, there is a lot more to it than the perceptions you create in your mind. Regardless of who you are, where you are or what you are experiencing, deep within your soul you know you can experience so much more. It’s incredible when your intuition allows you to see what is already yours!

You’ll learn how to regain your ability to find that child that resides in all of us, and to keep your body and mind in a parallel direction of health and happiness!
