Meet the Teachers, Experience the Practice

Tuesday July 30, 2024 6:30-8:30 pm
Upper Midwest Diamond Approach® Group 4

Please join us for an online orientation to Diamond Approach retreats held by local Diamond Approach teachers Kathleen Graham, Jim Lockridge, and Kara Vangen.

This evening we will discuss the Diamond Approach, its enduring presence in the Midwest since 1996, and share information about MW4, which is an open group still taking new students. You will have a chance to meet the teachers, talk about and participate in practices and ask any questions you might have.

This no cost event is open to anyone who is interested in the Diamond Approach. Feel free to pass this onto others who may be interested.

The Diamond Approach, developed by Founder A.H. Almaas, is a dynamic, evolving spiritual teaching that leads to openness, freedom, and realization of the many dimensions of our human potential—especially the amazing beauty of our inner nature.

Drawing on modern psychology and ancient spiritual wisdom, the central orientation of the Diamond Approach is “to be in the world but not of it”. We still wake up and handle our day-to-day responsibilities and joys and participate in the world through our work—as nurses, business owners, artists, teachers, parents, and in any number of roles—all the while remembering that we are ultimately reflections of something deeper.

Diamond Approach teachings are offered in an organic, deepening sequence for us to explore personally with others in groups. Alongside our central practice of inquiry, we use meditation, movement practices and breathwork to engage and explore our immediate experience. We learn from each other in these settings and are supported by the presence of fellow students.
