It’s the skill that has allowed me to:

– Untangle the confusing events and themes of my childhood

– Find lightness and freedom in places where I was deeply stuck

– Develop a kind of emotional & cognitive agility I never knew was possible

– Help others become free in ways that were surprising to us both

– And much more

That skill is the art of meaning making.

What is that exactly?

It’s the ability to see multiple “truths” inside the same situation. It’s the ability to create meaning around a particular event or memory in a way that moves you forward in your life rather than keeping you stuck.

To me this is one of the golden keys of personal transformation.

Meanings come in all forms. You can have meanings around things like:

– The story of why you are the way you are

– Why you’ve been stuck for so long

– Emotionally charged memories that serve as reference points for how you make decisions and live your life

The meaning you invest your attention into can keep you in a kind of mental prison (unable to break free, get unstuck, move on, etc.).

Or…

Meaning can gently and elegantly open a pathway forward for you. One that has been there all along, but was invisible to you because the meaning you were previously stuck inside of actually prevented you from seeing it.

What I love about meaning making is that it’s a skill you can learn. The better you get at it, the more you can look forward to these important benefits opening up for you:

First, you become more agile in your ability to navigate life skillfully and gracefully. You feel more capable and able to take on anything that matters to you.

Second, you become antifragile. When something comes along that would diminish most people, the skillful use of meaning making can make you stronger, more resilient, and transform the adversity you’re facing into a source of strength and love (for you and others).

And you can do this without the circumstances or the people involved needing to change.

How would you like to learn, explore, and experiment with this almost magical ability… using your own life’s stories as your playground?

If this sounds intriguing to you, then I invite you to come explore with us inside our experimental container. This is a container where we leave behind “I’m right” and “I know the truth”.

Instead we explore questions that open up possibility and create space inside your mind and especially in your heart.

If you resonate with what you see here, then you are welcome to join us. We’ll explore the art of deliberate meaning making together, and then share what we discovered with each other so we can all grow in surprising, new ways.

To register, simply RSVP here, and then click the FIND TICKETS button to complete your registration on Eventbrite for free. The event is limited to 25 people due to space constraints at the spiritual center.

With love,
Jason

P.S. – This workshop is free to attend. All I ask is that you show up ready to engage with us and participate fully.
