THE PATH UNSEEN: SPIRITUAL COMPANION
this is a dedicated quiet space to explore your spiritual path & be received with compassion, presence & care.
the health of our spirit is deeply connected to the health of our body & mind & the collective– from the familial to all with sentience. this space is open to those who are questioning, have a spiritual path, changing paths & all the in-betweens.
the invitation:
you will bring your questions, experience & practice.
i will listen, ask questions, reflect & walk alongside you.
this is not:
psychotherapy or counseling dr. g does offer this service separately. it is often focused on an obstacle & focuses on mental health, diagnose & treatment
advice-giving
this is not in dr. g's frame regardless of service. there are no shoulds. instead, we listen together for wisdom to arise for you. this might feel new & perhaps uncomfortable at first if you have been in authoritarian spaces where you are told what to do. it is with hopes this eases over our time together.
Confluence: A Community for Black Healing Practitioners
During our gatherings, we will gather & discuss our path as practitioners. We will have the opportunity to explore what nurtures our practice & our experience practicing in the world today. This is a space to discuss our personal & collective practice paths– how they speak to & support each other.
We will have open discussion on resonant topics generated by group conscious & center
the care & development of the Black practitioner
dismantling access to care
stories of our personal & collective practice
practitioner consultations & resource sharing
May these gatherings be a refuge where you can be held as you arrive at & practice a way that feels most aligned to you. This space centers Black practitioners in any Black healing capacity.

ORACLE: a Practice in Presence
when in a space of uncertainty & need answers, many often turn outward–
with so many outer sources to harvest from (AI, socials, newsletters, memes, influencers, reactors, etc), we may leave the search feeling overwhelmed, confused, anxious, distraught & perhaps unmet.
what would happen if we turned inward first?
Presence–
the foundation of every action & the anchor of every question.
in this 3 week offering, we will practice cultivating an intimacy with presence using meditation, poetry, hand crafting, yoga nidra, organic movement & storytelling. this is a practice space that supports slowing & rooting in community with others.
each week a topic will be centered:
Week 1: B.E.ing - the mind, body, spirit of presence
Week 2: Monstrous Presence - learn to sit with difficult aspects of self & others; learn what contributes to your distraction
Week 3: Integration & the Luminous Void - assessing what works, what doesn't & how to modify to fit you cultivate intuition & beginnings of own practice
BONUS: during the course of the offering, participants will also have the option to have a 15 minute 1:1 meeting with Kōsen to discuss their practice.
if this something you wish to nurture, join us. the group will be capped at 12 so all can be heard in the timeframe we have.
