Reclaiming Basic Goodness, Transforming Shame 

Saturday, October 26, 9:30 am - 3:30 pm MT, Online Call

"You are the child of the unshakeable good."

~Jeannie Zandi


Discover true freedom by embracing your full humanity in this transformative daylong course. Through teachings on shame, mercy, and self-compassion, you'll learn about integrating your earthly and divine nature, ending the internal war against yourself and stepping into the unbound heart. 

From our earliest days, we’ve been conditioned to reject our humanness—taught that we must strive for perfection and suppress the parts of ourselves that don’t measure up. This conditioning drives us to wage war against our own bodies and our humanity, chasing an unattainable ideal of perfection. Our spiritual pursuits often unconsciously become an extension of this struggle to attain perfection, leading to self-rejection and deepening feelings of unworthiness and shame.

In this daylong course, we will shine a light on this deeply ingrained shame-based conditioning that runs unchecked in the Western psyche, perpetuating a sense of profound alienation from our true selves.

Yet, there is another way. We will explore the possibility of embracing our full humanity—body and soul, limping and soaring parts. By doing so, we can discover our inherent goodness, reclaim our wholeness, and return to our true loving essence.

What You’ll Get:

  • A Deep Understanding of Shame and Perfection: You’ll uncover the hidden “Program of Perfection” that drives self-rejection and shame, learning how this conditioning has shaped your relationship with yourself.

  • Tools for Self-Compassion and Mercy: Gain practical techniques to soften toward your humanness and embrace imperfections with kindness and understanding, release patterns of self-judgment, and give up striving for an impossible ideal. 

  • Insight into the Human Experience: Explore the natural laws of humanness—how your so-called flaws are tied to the realities of being human, and how accepting these aspects can lead to profound healing.

  • Integration of Your Earthly and Divine Nature: Learn about harmonizing your basic instincts with your higher aspirations, creating a balanced and compassionate partnership within yourself.

  • A Pathway of Wholehearted Freedom: Discover how an authentic embracing of your full humanity—both the creaturely and the angelic—can lead to unconditional freedom, wholeness, and peace.

  • Embodiment of the True Human: Walk away with a new understanding of what it means to be fully human, integrating light and flesh, heaven and earth, in a way that allows you to live more fully and authentically.

  • A Supportive Community: Enjoy an opportunity to share with others on this journey, offering insights, experiences, and encouragement as you explore the depths of your humanness together.


What to Expect:

During the sessions, Jeannie will lead the group in meditation, guided meditation, a spontaneous talk and time to exchange with her, as well as optional breakout dyads (you may opt-out for these if you wish) and recommended practices for the break. 

Schedule:

The daylong will consist of two sessions: 

Saturday, October 26:

  • 9:30 am - 12:00 pm MDT  
  • 1:30 pm - 3:30 pm MDT
