"Living from the Heart" experiences and training in Central Oregon
Here's an opportunity for some deep psycho/spiritual work--available to anyone, but most accessible to the Central Oregon community.
Jonathan Goldman began his career as a practitioner of acupuncture in 1976. He went to Brazil in 1987, where he encountered his own healing, his teachers, and his mediumistic spiritual healership. He lives in Ashland, Oregon, maintaining a practice in Transformational Energy Healing. He leads self-transformational retreats and healership trainings in Canada, the US and Brazil. Jonathan is a teacher who is also a student, a healer who is constantly healing himself, and a bridge between spirit and matter.
The Living from the Heart training was created to meet the needs of people from all walks of life who are experiencing an awakening of their inner being. It is intended for those who understand the necessity of clearing themselves of past emotional, mental, and spiritual issues which have become impediments to the embodiment of their more authentic self.
Calmness, compassion, faith and surrender are the qualities expressed by the four levels of the heart. Living in the Heart is an authentic state of being which can be reached, learned and embodied. In this training, you will be guided towards your goal in a series of four sessions, each lasting 4 days.
Session One: Embodying Calmness
Calmness is a product of grounding and releasing constrictions in the body. When we learn to embody calmness, we can then fully inhabit our "home away from home"....our bodies. This is the beginning of true empowerment.
Session Two: Embodying Compassion
As we embody compassion, for ourselves and for others, our view of life organically changes from one of separation to one of unity. Healing is guaranteed.
Session Three: Embodying Faith
The antidote to fear is faith and it lives in our bodies. Together we will locate it, develop a new relationship with it and let it become our guide.
Session Four: Exploring Surrender
Surrender happens in stages and is a lifelong process. It is the key that unlocks the door to the miracle of a spiritualized life
Please join us for Session One: Embodying Calmness.

The Virtual Tea House website became 'word-ripe' when, over a cup of jasmine green, I realized that the web has an expanding part to play in the communal aspects of spiritual growth.
One of my favorite hats, among several is: initiated firekeeper in the Sacred Fire Community. Hosting a monthly community fire circle, I'm being taught that the simple act of sitting around a fire with the intent of holding open-hearted space makes for some soulful community!
With a master's degree in religion, my career spans 20 years in end of life care and I currently work in the field of child abuse intervention and advocacy.
Here in beautiful Central Oregon, my spiritual homes of the high desert and the mountains are both in proximity. And for good measure, four hours away is Grandmother Ocean and the stunning Oregon Coast.
I'm making decent progress on the goal set by my mother early on: she taught us that the goal of humanity should be to become ever-more eccentric, i.e. more fully human.
Entering the 'forest-dweller' phase of life, I am honored to host the Virtual Tea House for all who wish to explore how our lives are enriched and made new a thousand times each day by the spirituality we embody. Exploring this engagement together is the purpose of the Virtual Tea House.
Welcome! Let's have a cup of virtual tea together and share what brings us joy, what we are being taught by life, how we are leaning into the Big Questions posed to us each day in sometimes 'distressing disguises'.
