An audience member will be selected with a real and workable problem.
Educational Objectives:
Learn how a problem or symptom can be used as the doorway to a profound experience of "Peace" "Beingness" or "Presence".
Learn how this uncovered experience (called a Core State) can then be utilized to naturally transform the problem or symptom.
Learn how to uncover "intermediate outcomes" related to the problem, so that the transformation is often more far-reaching than expected.

Biological anthropologist Helen Fisher discusses three brain systems that evolved for mating and reproduction: the sex drive; feelings of intense romantic love; and feelings of deep attachment to a long term partner. She then focuses on her brain scanning research (using fMRI) on romantic rejection and the trajectory of love addiction following rejection. She concludes with discussion of the brain circuits associated with long-term partnership happiness and the future of relationships in the digital age—what she calls “slow love.”
