Gatherings with Joan are an opportunity to explore the ever-changing, ever-present living reality Here / Now, to see what is real and what is imaginary. In looking and listening together, we may discover that nothing is really separate or lacking, that everything is one whole happening, that there is no actual boundary between inside and outside, that the turbulent, overcast weather is as integral to this happening as the calm, sunny weather, and that none of it is really a problem. The emphasis is on open free awareness and being this moment, just as it is.
