Setting Your Heart on Fire: A Passionate Practice to Liberate Your Life

Raphael Cushnir

June 3, 2022 – June 5, 2022

“To live in accord with love is to set your heart on fire. In the crucible of such an inferno all convention burns away. What’s left is an entirely new kind of existence, one full of passion, presence and infinite possibility.” — Setting Your Heart on Fire

What if you could fall absolutely in love with every moment? What if you could use love’s radiance to heal your deepest wounds and break through any personal challenges — career, relationships, family, weight, self-esteem, addiction, anything?

All of this is possible, even amid the pandemic. It happens naturally when you stop trying to change your life and instead learn to relax into it. This workshop is designed to meet you where you are and then call forth your very best. You’ll discover the simple, practical steps necessary to feel all emotions with willingness and compassion, uncover and transform your limiting beliefs; and create a life of greater ease, joy, and exquisite connection.

This weekend is primarily experiential. It’s designed with the recognition that your heart is already on fire – our job is to remove what’s dampening the flame. The key explorations and practices of the gathering:

· Take place solo, in dyads and triads

· Focus on the use of precise attention

· Are mainly centered in the body

· Feature movement and active imagination

· Culminate in an “inner surfing” modality that combines vipassana, metta, and tantric approaches

Special note: On Saturday night our group will host a Freestyle Dance Jam, with Raphael as DJ, as a gift for ourselves and everyone at Breitenbush that night. Remember to pack some loose fitting attire and get ready to rock and roll and shake and swing and let it all go!

Raphael Cushnir has written six books, including The One Thing Holding You Back and Setting Your Heart on Fire. He leads workshops worldwide and has just released the memoir, Surviving the Divine: A Memoir of Rude Awakening. His heart opened through profound grief.
