Class 9-2 We’re All Recovering: Update Old Coping Strategies

Ch. 11 p.304-311

Meditation 19.5 min. from 14:30 to 35:00; posture on page 57

In this class we look into the phenomena of trauma, survival-strategy coping mechanisms, their undesirable effects and how to resolve them. There is a good bit of explanation in the video, and I recommend that you use a simple breathing technique and meditate to explore viscerally during the class. Have in front of you a sheet for self-analysis and whatever you discover.

Class 9-3 Survivors’ Skills: Self-Exalted Sensitivity

Ch.11 p.312-317; Power for Peace p.314

Meditation for Self-Exalted Experience, 24 min. from 35:00 to 59:00.

In this class we look at the primary factors from the study of survivors of major disasters, to identify what we can do to heal from our own. It turns out that all of them are contained in our Senses of the Soul work. We will do a strong Kriya to have the Self-Exalted Experience, which a state that facilitates recovery from all our wounds. To assist that, the exercise is followed by a brilliant guided meditation for self-healing. I suggest you do this meditation from the audiobook after first trying it from the video.
