COURSE
The Path Home - Rooted Resilience For Uncertain Times
With Kirsty Lyon
Life is full of ups and downs, yet when we find ourselves in a difficult season, it can feel overwhelming and isolating. This course has been created to help you navigate life’s challenges with more acceptance, presence, and self-compassion. Instead of resisting what is, you will learn how to meet difficulties mindfully, creating the path of least resistance and cultivating a foundation of resilience. Over five days, you will explore practical tools to support you through life’s hardships. You’ll learn how to embrace the present moment, soften resistance, and connect with the inner and outer anchors that bring a sense of safety. You’ll also discover how to reframe your perspective, zoom out from limiting thoughts, and connect with the part of yourself that holds the wisdom to guide you through life’s challenges. No matter where you find yourself right now, you are not alone. Challenges are an inevitable part of life that shape us, but they don’t have to define us. This is your reminder that within you is a grounded, resilient presence, one that carries you through every season of life with strength and grace.

Dear Kirsty, this course is a masterpiece. This morning, I felt so discouraged because I was not feeling good, again. And as I was sitting quietly with my coffee, breathing, I thought about you. And decided to check out your offerings. Wow, I listened to the entire course this afternoon and will go back to it again and again. It resonated so much and I kept feeling blown away by the wisdom and your gentle and sensitive way of speaking. You have been a source of comfort and support for me this year. Lots of love 💕 from Calgary, Canada.

This was such a beautiful course Kirsty, thank you. It was full of such deep and natural wisdom, as I've come to associate with your offerings here on Insight Timer. Gentle, nurturing and steadying, I will definitely return to these practices, not just during times of acute challenge, but as a way to practice connecting deeply within, cultivating a sense of perspective and acceptance, and approaching life with greater balance. I was moved to tears by several of the meditations, indicating to me that there was deep healing in them and that a part of me I hadn't been so consciously aware of really needed what they had to offer. Just a thought, would it be possible for you to create a track of each of the meditations for your library, without the teaching segment at the start, so that we could return to them as a regular practice? Not that your teachings weren't of great value, but I'd love, for example, to be able to practice zooming out, or a mountain meditation, on a regular basis. Whether you can do this or not, I'll be coming back to these practices and am so grateful to you for creating them. 🙏

This course is so full of love 💕 It is soothing at the moment when you feel OK. And it will be so helpful when you are experiencing pain, grief.

I was drawn to the title of the course as these are incredibly turbulent times! The messages here were not all new to me, but delivered in just the right way for reconnection and self care in this moment-which wraps into resilience. So well done and thank you! 🙏🏼

Kristy did a wonderful job guiding and opening my understanding of the journey that I am in. Each lesson helped uncover and provide inner emotional connection and understanding of the journey.
