About this event
What if some of the ways we abandon ourselves are so subtle that we don’t even recognize them? We often think of self-abandonment as something dramatic. But sometimes it happens quietly, in ordinary moments, everyday choices, and even in things we believe we’re doing for all the right reasons. Sometimes it happens when something inside us becomes uncomfortable. Sometimes it happens when staying true to ourselves might make someone else uncomfortable. And because we don’t always recognize it, we may not realize when we’ve stopped listening to ourselves, trusting our own experience, or standing beside ourselves when it matters. At our next gathering, we’ll explore **The Hidden Ways We Abandon Ourselves**, and what begins to change when we learn to recognize them. You may discover that self-abandonment looks very different from what you thought. Join us for an open and thoughtful conversation about the relationship you have with the one person you can never leave behind — yourself.
