Resilience in Challenging Times

 
 

Dear friends,

The team at Sounds True has spent the past week putting together their hearts and minds to creatively come up with how they can best support you and the world at large as we find our way through this time of great challenge and uncertainty.

We are excited to share with you what they’ve come up with - a special Sounds True care package of free digital tools and teachings, "Resilience in Challenging Times."

"Resilience in Challenging Times"  gives you:

  • Free access to daily video sessions sharing practical guidance and empowering insights from our recent online summits

  • Community connection—"Physical distancing" does not have to mean "social distancing," so we'll be offering opportunities to come together online for group meditations and Facebook Live meetings. Let's gather, learn, and support each other!

  • Free webinars addressing how to stay strong and centered with some of our most popular authors, including Michael Singer, Caroline Myss, and others

Right now we're witnessing a heightened sense of confusion and stress across our communities. It is our hope that "Resilience in Challenging Times"  gives us a resource to productively use this time for growth and spiritual transformation, difficult as that sometimes can be, so we can turn towards our experience, care for ourselves, and become resources of love and sanity for others.

Much Love,

Julie
