Moving from Ego to Essence in Relationships: Love Intensive

How much love you have in your life is under your control because you are the giver of love! You can choose to give love, and the more you do, the more love-filled your life becomes. That choice comes naturally when we drop out of our egoic mind and into Essence. During this intensive, you will discover the love within you and unlock any blocks that keep it from flowing to others. The secret to happiness and to love is giving love. How do you keep yourself from loving? That is also how you keep yourself from being loved.

This intensive is based on Gina’s new book Loving in the Moment: Moving from Ego to Essence in Relationships (formerly titled Choosing Love), which is being released April 1, 2010. As with Gina’s other intensives, the Love Intensive will be led by Theo, the collective consciousness she channels. Through talks, dialogues, and meditations, Theo will present six keys to experiencing true love and happiness. You will learn about the power of gratitude, acceptance, forgiveness, attention, Presence, and being in the moment. You will also learn how you create your feelings and experience of reality and how to create a happier and more loving life instead. The intensive is five two-hour sessions over the course of the weekend, one on Friday night, two on Saturday, and two on Sunday. It is for everyone, whether you are in a relationship or single.

Gina also offers the intensive described below. There is no "Moving from Essence to Ego" intensive scheduled as yet.

Weekend Intensives: Moving from Ego to Essence

The experience of our true Self is available in every moment, but negative beliefs and feelings obscure it and keep us tied to the egoic mind and to suffering. The good news is that more and more people are waking up out of the egoic mind, and if you are reading this, you are likely to be one of them. Because the awakening process can be confusing and challenging, having a guide can be helpful. During the intensive, with the help of Theodore (Theo), a collective consciousness from the sixth dimension who communicates through Gina Lake, you will experience the sweet Presence of your true nature and uncover and heal what interferes with living more from your essential Self.

The intensive is a combination of talks, dialogues, and meditations led by Theo. Over the weekend, Theo will offer spiritual mentoring and satsang—an exploration of who you really are—and address any personal and spiritual issues and concerns you feel may interfere with your happiness and being more fully present in your life. The intensive is an opportunity to discover and release whatever is getting in the way of your experiencing and expressing your true Self (Essence) more fully. It is five two-hour sessions over the course of the weekend, one on Friday night, two on Saturday, and two on Sunday.

You will learn the tricks the egoic mind plays to keep you involved with it, and you will discover specifically how your own egoic mind keeps you from the peace, joy, contentment, and happiness that is at your core. You will also discover what it means to live from Essence rather than from the ego and how to better align yourself to your life purpose. Some of the other topics that have been covered in previous intensives are: how to be in Essence in relationships, how Essence communicates, how Essence guides your life, what evil is, the role of nonphysical helpers, learning to trust life, how to make choices, what being awake is like, reprogramming beliefs, handling anger, loving yourself, dealing with fear, overcoming anger at God, how consciousness is being evolved on earth, your interconnectedness with all life, how to clear emotional complexes and negativity, dealing with physical pain, the problem of desires, healing conditioning, letting go of the past, and dealing with difficult relationships.
