The One Thing That Can Set You Free—And It’s Not What You Think

-
Holding on to anger is like carrying a heavy weight that never lets up. It drains your energy, colors your thoughts, and keeps you stuck in the past. You replay old hurts, expecting them to change, but they don’t. The only thing that changes is you—more tired, more bitter, more trapped.

Forgiveness isn’t about letting someone off the hook. It’s about letting yourself off the hook.

In his upcoming class on forgiveness, Dr. Edward Viljoen will break down what forgiveness really is—and what it isn’t. You’ll learn how to release the resentment that’s holding you back. You’ll discover a process that brings real peace, not just forced smiles or empty words. And you’ll see that forgiveness doesn’t mean forgetting, reconciling, or excusing bad behavior. It means freedom.

This class is about taking mindful, easy, gentle action. You’ll dig into real-life struggles, reflect on what’s keeping you stuck, and take steps toward healing. You’ll walk away with tools you can use immediately—simple, powerful practices to shift your mindset and reclaim your energy.

The weight you’re carrying? It’s time to set it down. Join us, and start the journey toward a lighter, freer you.

Register now. Your peace is worth it.

Who Am I All The Time? The Spiritual Practice of Reflection

I am passionate about "The Spiritual Practice of Reflection The Spiritual Practice of Reflection ," the two-hour workshop I will facilitate on Saturday, September 14, 2024, from 10:00 to 12:00. Through several guided explanations and exercises with mirror work, the Principle of Oneness became clear to me. Now, I practice it daily, incorporating it effortlessly yet mindfully into my routine. When I first came to The Center, I thought spiritual practices had to be formal and set aside for specific times each day. While they can be, I found this difficult. Through mirror work, I realized that I could feel and know I was one with the Divine each morning as I got ready for work. My intention for this workshop is for participants to discover that they, too, can carry out the spiritual practice of reflection as they prepare for the day. Nearly everyone has access to a mirror and uses it to finalize their appearance before leaving. What we see reflected is superficial, but this works...

How Did I Learn to Trust Life?

For much of my life I had a hard time trusting. I didn't have good models of what healthy trust looks like when I was growing up, and I had many experiences that taught me that it wasn't safe to trust--especially to trust that Life was for me. This led me to want to be in control of everything! My emotions, my job, my friends, my romantic relationships, it doesn't matter what it was, I wanted to control it.  The challenge with this way of being is that it's a lot of work. And it's not really effective. I learned through much trial and error that it's not actually possible, or even desirable, to always be in control.  The spiritual practice that helped me move my excessively controlling ways is visioning . When we vision, we go into a meditative state and seek to connect with that wise, loving, and knowledgable core of our being. Psychology calls this core of us the Self, with a capital "S". Spiritual traditions have called it the Christ consciousness, ...
