Kosi is returning to Staunton, Virginia this July to offer satsang - the poetry of Rumi at Cranberry's Grocery and Artful Gifts. She will also be offering the Yoga of Light Retreat - Ending the Shame of Self-hatred at Sanctuary Yoga and Wellness. Shame and self-hatred is one of the great invisible barriers to a direct discovery of your natural happiness. Shame is not something that is comfortable to discuss. It is the hidden undercurrent or feeling that if anyone really knew you they would simply run away. If you are like most people you are simply used to this secret feeling and are just resigned to this generally icky feeling. Naturally, you make the effort to consciously and unconsciously hide this hopelessly flawed secret of you so that maybe you will be somewhat acceptable. Like everyone else, you silently struggle to fit in and even adopt certain behaviors and personas to hide your secret self loathing-the invisible self-torture inside. Her direct, pragmatic, and very down to earth guidance is a breath of fresh air that supports real progress in your spiritual evolution. If you are tired of all the spiritual fluff that doesn't seem to help you achieve any sense of happiness or well being, this two day non-residential retreat will catapult you into the bliss of freedom alive within you.
