Freedom is not about saying nice things or agreeing with those in power.

It is not flattering the President of the United States.

It is the right to express your point of view without government interference.

We must not allow anybody to take that freedom away from us.

EFFORTLESS MEDITATION & BEYOND
TUESDAY, DECEMBER 9th - 6:30-8:00 PM (ET)

Offered NEARLY EVERY TUESDAY, 6:30 - 8:00 PM (ET)
TOTALLY FREE!

EM&B is a Tool for Dealing with Anger/Sadness/Worrying/Stress & for Spiritual Awakening

Welcome Everyone!

Here is a TESTIMONIAL from a recent ZOOM meeting:

"I SO appreciate the time you took with me last night in helping me to experience what is aware. Just being able to talk to someone about my mind always questioning, 'Am I making this up?' was so helpful... what was different was the intentional speaking to the mind... It's more direct and unambiguous than other ways i've used to do this... I've been able to put my attention on awareness many times today and I am experiencing more freedom. Thank you for being there and hosting these meetups and for your patience." ~ Namaste, Renee

Effortless Meditation & Beyond is a unique, effortless, simple, direct, quick and effective TOOL:

1) to experience MUCH less anxiety, frustration, depression, stress and suffering due just daily living and due to intensely life-long emotional issues

2) to experience MORE and MORE inner Peace, Joy, Freedom, Love, Compassion, Appreciation, Gratitude

3) to directly realize Spiritual Awakening ~ your True Self...

Jeff has taught Effortless Meditation & Beyond to small and large groups for over 22 years and, as a volunteer, taught EM&B to inmates at a local jail for over 13 years. The results have been remarkable!

Generally, inmates experience enormous amount of frustration, anger, sadness, depression, anxiety and fear about things they have no control over on the outside, as well as concerns for themselves inside. Through EM&B, many experience deep Peace...

EXCELLENCE AWARD - In April 2019 Jeff received an Excellence award for "Outstanding Volunteer" from the jail.

Jeff trained for 6 years through the Leela School of Awakening and has been meeting with people for over 22 years privately or in small groups to assist them in moving through psychological/emotional issues.

In addition, he has helped people to Awaken to who they really Are - This inner Peace, Spacious Awareness, Presence, Silence, Stillness, Beingness...
During our gathering we will:

1) experience EM&B and this meditation will be stress relieving and peaceful. Also, it is a very quick way to reveal at least a glimpse of Spiritual Awakening...

2) explore whatever spiritual questions or emotional issues you may like to bring up...

Hey Everyone!

I want to let you know that a few days ago an article about me was published on Gangaji's website! This is an incredible honor! (Gangaji is my most profound spiritual teacher.) The article appears in the section entitled "Living from the Ground of Being".

The title of the article is "How Real Is Fear?"
https://gangaji.org/gf-community-article/how-real-is-fear

There is a 4-minute video of me being interviewed by Harriet Watson who is on the staff of the Gangaji Foundation. The video is about how fear use to dictate my life and it doesn't have much of an effect any more due to Gangaji's profound impact on me..

Also, there is a 17-minute audio of me leading an Effortless Meditation & Beyond. As a volunteer, I have taught this meditation for over 13 years in the local jail and on the "outside." I received an Excellence Award in 2019 for my work with the men, women and therapists at the jail.

If you "Like" the video/audio, I would appreciate it if you would click on the heart and/or post a comment. Thank you.

EM&B is such a useful tool because it can be done anywhere, anytime, under any circumstance and with eyes open or closed. And the EM&B tool may be done for as little as 30 seconds to 30 minutes or more - however long you may want in the moment...

EM&B is a unique, simple, quick, direct, effortless and effective tool:

1) to experience MUCH less stress, anxiety, fear, frustration, anger, depression, etc. (ie. suffering)

2) to almost immediately experience more and more inner Peace, Happiness, Freedom and Love

3) to get at least a glimpse of or to deepen in Spiritual Awakening, Enlightenment ~ your True Self...

If you're curious about what EM&B might do for you, you can have a direct experience with me. Check it out here:

I hope you'll consider joining us some time.
Take care in This Presence,
jeff

Effortless Meditation & Beyond CHANNEL
[NINE (9) YouTubes of varying lengths of time]

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjvFfHX0PemoeF7TTnxkk9g

Our purpose is to support your desire to experience less stress, worry, depression and suffering; and to experience more peace, freedom, happiness, love, compassion and the call to Spiritual Awakening...

Spiritual Awakening is about realizing that What we really already Are is This Awareness in which all our thoughts, emotions, sensations, bodies appear, exist for awhile, and disappear...

As we live our lives more and more as our True Self, we will naturally experience more and more Peace, Happiness, Freedom, Love and Compassion for all people, including ourselves - regardless of what experiences show up in our lives.

And Effortless Meditation & Beyond will show us one of the easiest, quickest, most direct, most effective and most effortless meditations to get at least a glimpse of This Spacious Awareness and to deepen in This Spiritual Awakening...

May All Beings find Peace...
May All Beings find Happiness...
May All Beings find Freedom...
May All Beings Awaken...
