PAST EVENTS

 

Saturday October 10th, 2020

Join me as I moderate and speak on a panel about Conscious Partnership and Communal Healing. This talk is part of the IMAGINE SUMMIT, a 2-day virtual festival honoring the vision behind John Lennon’s song, “Imagine". This summit is an opportunity to imagine more of what we want for ourselves, each other, and our world, while at the same time honoring and celebrating the goodness in our lives right now. It’s full of opportunities to learn about practices that will help us create what we deeply desire within ourselves, our partnerships, our families & our communities. 

Imagine takes place October 10th and 11th, 2020 from 11am-12am with a kick-off party on the evening of the 9th. It will be chock full of various panels, yoga, dancing, meditation and a 5D vision quest. Some of the other talks include "Conscious Hacking", "Education in the Modern Age", and "Sex, Creativity & Expression." That’s just to name a few! The theme this year is Ancient Wisdom and Conscious Tech. You can go to one event or all, depending on your preference.

This incredible, free event is the brain child of my dear friends Hargo and Alice Khalsa. You can learn more and sign up about by going to www.imaginesummitfest.com

*All proceeds from the special event, “Dance For The Children,’ will be going to Operation Underground Railroad, a non-profit that works to rescue children from sex trafficking. 


Friday October 2nd, 2020

Please join us from 9-11am PST for an experiential workshop on healing from White Supremacy. 

We will investigate, explore, & work to heal from various impacts of white supremacy, however it shows up in our lives, and create a safe space to address whatever questions & reflections arise.

During this workshop, you will learn to:⁠ 
1. Engage in personal reflection through various mediums to develop a deeper understanding of their implicit biases.⁠
2. Identify barriers to their own anti-racism.
3. Begin to build a personalized toolbox for sustainability in anti-racism work.⁠

All parts of you are welcome, so you're invited to show up curious & open-minded. Change begins with us! 

This important experiential workshop is co-led by Sydnee Corriders, LMSW, and Suzy Fauria, LMSW and is co-hosted by Adreinne Glasser and Jennifer Kleiner, CPLC, as part of the online offerings of IFSA-LA.

coping with the covid times: free group coaching session

It's easy to feel fearful and grief-stricken when each new day brings disheartening news that impacts our lives dramatically. These are trying times that require all of us to get more resourceful and creative.

That's why I'm offering a FREE Group Coaching Session via Zoom this Sunday, April 5th at 10am PST. In this group session, we will process our collective concerns and discuss how we've each been impacted. Everyone will get a chance to share their experiences in a private, supportive and nonjudgmental group environment that fosters a sense of community while in isolation. I'll offer tools to help us find peace and a sense of intentional focus during this time, and conduct a centering meditation to help stretch our capacity to endure our collective challenges. Click HERE to sign up now. (In order to protect everyone's privacy, this session will not be recorded or made available afterward.)

Empowered Women’s Circle: 8 week session

 
 

Many of us can start to feel isolated and under-supported as we juggle priorities, milestones and losses on our complicated journeys toward self fulfillment. That's why longtime friends Sarah Schupack LMFT and Jen Kleiner, MFA, CPLA are creating an intimate circle for empowered women who crave a safe place to connect and be witnessed on a deeper level. Together as a circle, we will support each other in developing a deeper sense of clarity, confidence and connectedness with everything that matters to us most.

Each session will include a brief meditation, individual check ins, an experiential component and a closing circle ritual. We'll meet on Monday nights from 7:30-9:30pm starting October 7th for 8 weeks at my home in Carthay Circle until December 2nd (taking off the week of Thanksgiving). The investment is $399 for all 8 weeks.

RSVP to jen@intuitiveartists.org by September 30th to secure your spot. Spaces are limited.
