Surrender Is Presence
In this first lesson, we will deepen into, "What is surrender?" Rather than just something we do with our minds, we realize surrender is a journey into wholeness, presence and being available to life. In this audio, we will set intentions for the Course in Surrender and experience a deeper level of stillness and ease with letting go. The following lesson will be a guided meditation to ground in this lesson.

The Ground Beneath You (Meditation)
In this grounding surrender meditation, we realize surrender as a somatic experience. The ground beneath us is solid and holding us. We do not need to try and do anything. It's just there. This meditation will guide you into feeling completely relaxed, open and free. This meditation is like taking a shower in surrender.
Les 3
Living The Question
Surrender is something we do with our whole being; it is a full-bodied, holistic experience. Rather than just an idea in our minds, letting go becomes a lived reality. We become intimate with the unknown, and comfortable with uncertainty. This lesson will guide you in making peace with "living the question"; feeling at home with "not knowing". We will explore letting go of needing to have an answer; of needing things to be a certain way before we surrender. Instead, we surrender our way into life's revelatory unfolding.
Les 4
Unlimited Patience (Meditation)
In this peaceful mediation, you are guided into a softening with life; a letting go into the beautiful feeling of surrender. With unlimited patience, you're able to make space for all of life's unfolding moments. Come what may, this meditation leads you deep into a space of trust within yourself that is unshakable and full of peace.
Les 5
Trusting In The Unknown
This soothing lesson will help you to become more comfortable with the mystery of life. We will explore contemplative questions and warm up to making peace with the unknown. As we become intimate with this "cloud of unknowing" that is ultimately between us and unfolding reality, we soften into an acceptance and trust that brings profound peace. On one hand, we acknowledge we are not in control, and on the other, we can let go of trying to control (what a relief)! We realize that we don't "need to know" and can relax into a surrender that trusts life and embraces love.
Les 6
Surrendering Into Love (Meditation)
This relaxing meditation will guide you in surrendering into Love, and healing into life. As you listen, you will soften into the Presence of Love, as though this Presence is holding you. As you listen to this meditation, and in every moment of your life, you are supported in feeling it is safe to let go; it is safe to surrender into the arms of Love.
Les 7
Offering And Opening
In this session, we explore the prayer, "show me how to surrender." We realize that we don't need to "know" how; we can open to be shown. We can call upon the Truth itself to show us what surrender really is. By staying open, we let go of being closed and thinking we know how it should all be, look and feel. This gives the Grace of life an opportunity to come in and bless us beyond our beliefs. We stay open to being surprised, to being led, and to going places we didn't expect. This lesson will guide you in staying centered in a prayerfulness that is open, patient and full of trust.
Les 8
Soaking In The Presence Of The Divine (Meditation)
In this meditation, we will soften into deeper levels of surrender by soaking in the Presence of the Divine. Underneath all of the noise of the world, is a Silent Presence of Love. Throughout time, in all corners of the world, a Divine Presence has been felt. In this meditation, we become aware of the Love that is holding us, always. In this powerful space of love, surrender becomes more natural.
Les 9
Sacred Prayer
Root in with the core of your surrender intention and come into a more profound level of communication with the Divine and with life itself. In this lesson, we realize surrender is synonymous with surrendering into a space of love, like an ocean of love. We let go into the very fabric of life itself, which is, at it's basis, overwhelmingly love. As we surrender more deeply, we become an open channel for the Divine to move through us. This lesson brings in a sacred and powerful prayer to further bless and deepen your surrender journey.
Les 10
Aligning With Divine Will (Meditation)
This serene meditation lesson will guide you in being open to allowing in the highest vibrations for your life. Naturally relax your body, mind and heart, and come into a deeply receptive place. This meditation creates a safe space to feel held and let go in; a space to feel and be in touch with your highest calling. A prayer of aligning with Divine Will is repeated, as you receive the vibration of deep surrender and your highest spiritual alignment.
Les 11
Surrendering Into Life
In this transformative lesson, we come back to the awareness that surrendering is not about a focus in the mind, but something we do with our whole being. We're not surrendering to escape life; but rather, we are surrendering into life. Into the tenderness, into the love, into the discomfort, into the pain, into all the colors and shades that life brings. As we embrace and surrender into life, and stay with it, we are shown the miracle that every moment is. Surrender is the way of the heart, and because the heart knows wisdom and eternity, it can dare to surrender.
Les 12
Surrendering Into The Sacred Heart (Meditation)
This meditation lesson brings you into the experiential reality of the Divine as Love. In this meditation, we delve into the space of the heart and allow a radiant pure love to flow; an energy that belongs to and emanates from your heart. It's a love without reason or judgement; it's unconditional and will never die or end. It's a love that will never leave you, no matter what. Tap into this wellspring of Love, and deepen your surrender.
Les 13
Surrender Is Love
In this final teaching lesson, we come home to an experience of surrender that is Love. We realize that surrender is an opportunity to meet our lives, as they are - with love, acceptance and forgiveness. There is an embracing and accepting of what is, and a relaxing into each moment. We have let go of resisting and trying to escape, and instead find a unity within and without. Surrender has become an act of love that engages our whole being. We've realized that everything that comes our way is beneficial. Is it safe to trust and surrender. It is safe to love.
Note: This lesson and the next meditation lesson to accompany it have a happy bird chirping in the background, which occurred spontaneously and unexpectedly, as if to confirm the perfection of each moment.
