Golden Chain was birthed in a NYD workshop on January 1, 2020 where we explored the numerology for the year ahead which unfolded in ways that none of us could have anticipated and yet the teachings hold. We outlined a framework for our year: heart-work, compassionate action, and the development of a meditative mind to discern what is true and real on a personal and experiential level in a time of great divisiveness.
The other running title for this workshop is: new year same shit. Consider that the flipping of the calendar year will not simply vanish the hardships uncovered over the past 12 months. We must keep moving, keep learning, unlearning, and taking care of each other. As we move into a new year the harsh realities of our time like a global pandemic, government mistrust, class warfare, political tension, global public health affairs, the quickening pace of environmental degradation and increasingly rapid change will continue to challenge us. How then do we use our practice for insight to continue to contribute to a new way forward without losing momentum.
Together we’ll welcome in a new year - a five year - (2+0+2+1) and explore teachings linked to both the physical body and our power of unique expression. Expect a mini lecture on tantric numerology and how it relates to the ten body system and anatomy of the chakras, dynamic movement, mantra meditation, gong bath, and space for writing and community dialogue.
I’ll share my thematic practice of the year informed by the state of the world and the numbers at play.
