Event Summary

Into me you see—into me I see—until I accept and embrace my wholeness there will be a missing piece in my connection with another. To be radical in our world is often perceived as out of sync—as pushing against the status quo.

What if radical meant “no holds barred, nothing in the way—completely honest and as revealed as we can be in this moment.” Radical—willing to be seen for who we are, not prettied up or polished but rather unkempt, loud, messy and uncomfortable with others and maybe most importantly, with ourselves.

Are you willing to be truly intimate? What do you hold back? What do you not allow others to see? And how do we create another, deeper, more radical layer of intimacy?

HAI is adding a mandatory $45 surcharge to in-person weekend workshops to cover COVID testing and other COVID related expenses until they are no longer necessary.

HAI Global is committed to the safety of its participants, volunteers and employees. You will be asked to provide a negative COVID test 2-4 days before the workshop in addition to testing onsite at registration.

 

Event Team

Facilitators

I've been facilitating HAI workshops for over 20 years - hard to imagine so much time has gone by! But, I'm doing what I love, one workshop, group, and individual heart at a time. My favorite color is purple. I love to cook, and my apple pie is internationally renowned - a family secret recipe passed down through generations. I'm the very proud mother of two beautiful grown children, four beautiful grandchildren through my godson in Detroit and two sons from my husband Tyrone. My joy in life is in helping people step out of pain and fear and into excitement and joy, in relationships and life-work. I consider myself a "transformation midwife" - and I love bringing all of me to support change and growth!

Peter is the author of three heart-opening books, Seeds of Light, Living Life in Love, and My 11 Enlightening Days with Sri Mooji. He also leads his own meditation retreats, workshops, and classes – “Spiritual Awakening,” “Yes!”  ”Living Life in Love,” and “Opening to Intimacy” (a couple's class taught with his wife, Donna, who he has been with since 1985).  His greatest spiritual teacher has been his son, Kavi.
 
Event Details

True intimacy allows another to see inside. To do this, you must start with being radically intimate with your Self. What do you know about you, and what remains a mystery about you, even to yourself?

Let’s take intimacy far beyond where we have been before. What are the places that have been hiding within me, perhaps below the surface? What have I been unwilling to see, or to share?

  • Practice fearless transparency

  • Heal your deepest shame

  • Reveal your innermost, truest self

  • Rediscover your beauty

  • Celebrate sexual intimacy

When we step fully into self revelation and a willingness to be seen—we are intimate. We are real. We are ready to take on and transform anything unlike love. We are intimate with ourselves and the world. We are radical.

“There were moments when I felt more deeply connected to myself, my friends, the room of love and the planet than I ever have before.” ~C.A.

“Allowing myself to embrace and accept all of me, and realizing that my friends saw me more beautifully and magnificently than I saw myself was life-changing.” ~G.A.
