Law of Attraction Class - Back to Basics - on Zoom
2021-10-07 19:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York)
Always something for Everyone.
All are welcomed!
_____________________________________________________________

ABOUT THE CLASS
BACK TO BASICS is a beginning level class of the Law of Attraction. I am hoping that we can draw people who have never participated in working with this Law, because I know that their lives will be greatly enhanced by their understanding of it. Everyone is welcome, previous students and new ones. Classes always feel like a support group!
We use the Book, “Ask and It Is Given,” by Abraham Hicks, because of the processes contained therein. This book is popular and can be found at Unity’s bookstore, among others. We blend the principles, tools and processes of the Law of Attraction, along with other notable teachings past and present.
This is a leading edge class, timeless in content. Learning to embody and live this Law is a full time occupation of becoming a conscious, mindful Co-Creator.
The Law of Attraction is another name for the Law of Cause and Effect or the Law of Sow/Reap. We live in this Law just as we live in gravity. Many today understand that we are all co-creators, that when one “asks,” “it is given.” We may make affirmations but often the shadow voice within us is louder and becomes our unintentional communicator to the Universe. We are encouraged to live the actualization of this Law, the workings of which are subtle and specific. It is each person’s own “inside job” in alliance with Source.
Classes include a meditation, a review of a processes and a 20min. YouTube presentation on the material on split screen.
If you are interested, contact Zan@woman-spirit.com or 941-922-7839, (office landline.)
Blessings abound,
Rev. Zan Benham

Kirtan with Cheryl Chaffee at Unity of Sarasota

Kirtan with Cheryl Chaffee will be held once a month at Unity of Sarasota in Fellowship Hall. By donation to benefit Unity of Sarasota – Love Offering

Kirtan is a very different kind of music. Based on ancient chants, it has the ability to quiet the mind if listened to with intention. Everyone experiences kirtan differently, and it doesn’t have to be a religious experience. You can think of it as a sing-along. A kirtan concert is not your typical concert either.
The wallah (leader) sings the mantra, and the audience sings it back. As you sing with each other you experience a deep connection with the musicians, the other audience members and yourself. And when the music stops, your mind is quiet.
Because kirtan has roots in India, many of the songs are sung in Sanskrit. If you’ve ever chanted responses in Latin or Hebrew in your religious tradition, then you know how powerful singing in an ancient, holy language can be. You can be completely immersed in the sound, with no words to distract the mind. The magic of the chants can then carry you within.
Kirtan is non-denominational, the Universal language of Spirit, the song of the Soul.

Get Real!—Spiritual Principles of the Velveteen Rabbit:
Resurrection Expresses Authentic Life
“Most of us died an emotional death about age seven. This is the death from which we are being asked to re-awaken—a dream, that on the surface, appears to be Real. We must face what is Real, in a Real way, if we want to activate Real movement in the quality of our life experience. This is not about changing who we are. It is about releasing the ‘who we are not’ of our manufactured identity, so that we may return to our authentic Presence. When we learn to see beneath the surface of things, we begin to move from the world of pretense to the world of Presence. Get Real!”
~ Paraphrased from Michael Brown & the Skin Horse, from The Velveteen Rabbit
