Omega Institute Course Description
Date - July 4–6, 2008
Title - The Not So Big Life:Making Room for What Really Matters
Instructor - Sarah Susanka
Have you ever found yourself asking, “Isn’t there something more meaningful than this way too busy life I’m living?”
Sarah Susanka helps us take our finger off the fast-forward button and right-size our life. She describes a process for integrating outer and inner worlds, helping us to see that every experience, good or bad, is food for the journey to realization of our true potential. We learn that we do not need to lead a monastic life or give up the things we love. In fact, the real joy of a “not so big life” is realizing that it already exists in the life we’re leading. All that’s required is our full engagement.
We learn through collective inquiry to understand that:
- Everything is a reflection
- We are not our thoughts, feelings, or experiences
- There is nothing wrong
- Life is the experiencing of the experience
We discover that if we look with the eyes of a student, everything can teach us, pointing the way to a life that is more meaningful and satisfying than our wildest dreams.
Required reading: Susanka, Sarah The Not So Big Life.
Please bring a notebook.
