What is Awakening

It can be easy to lose ourselves in the routine of our everyday lives. Sometimes seemingly on autopilot, we go through our day following a familiar and comfortable rhythm. Don’t let life just pass you by.

Rub the sleep from your eyes. Fully awaken and experience the world as it truly is. Life is more vivid and real than we often realize. When we awaken, we have a heightened awareness and understanding of the complexities within ourselves, the beauty of the world around us, and the interconnectedness of everything.
