CLASSES AND WORKSHOPS

We grow spiritually through exposure and learning from a variety of faith traditions. Sometimes this is experiential, sometimes intellectual, and sometimes it's a mix of these (or other) modalities. Sometimes we learn by guiding others!

The classes and workshops offered through the Tree of Life Interfaith Temple are open to any interested individual. These offerings require a low-to-medium amount of time commitment for class sessions and little or no time outside of class time for participants. Any friend or member of the Temple is encouraged to share their skills by leading a class or workshop. 

Please take a moment and review our offerings to see what might speak to you. New classes and workshops are usually added seasonally.

    A Course in Miracles
    CORRINE NIKOLENKO

    ​A Course in Miracles (ACIM) discussion group for anyone interested in learning about the Course for the first time, or for those with experience interested in sharing their interpretations of the material. ACIM is a form of "spiritual psychology", where you can learn to see the peace instead of the chaos of life. The course uses Christian terms in the material, but any terms can be substituted for those used in this self-taught course. The course aims at removing the blocks to the awareness of love's presence. "This course can therefore be summed up very simply in this way: Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God." Introduction, ACIM.

    Program Objectives and Outcomes: To give participants possibly another path to inner peace to practice.

    ​Required / Suggested Reading: A Course in Miracles (Combined book) with the Text, Workbook for Students, and Manual for Teachers in one book. (Most editions being sold now are the combined this way.) It is published by the Foundation for Inner Peace. Additional optional recommended reading is A Return to Love by Marianne Williamson, Love is Letting Go of Fear by Gerald Jampolsky, MD, and A Course in Miracles Made Easy by Alan Cohen.

    Prerequisites: None

    About Corrine: I am a 25-year spiritual seeker. Interested in learning about and discussing all types of spirituality in my spare time. I have spent 25 years on and off studying A Course in Miracles. I facilitated an ACIM discussion group in my United Methodist church in Sacramento, CA in 2004. The group continued on their own for 5 years after I moved to NH, so I guess they liked it.

    Second Saturday Deep Gong Immersion

    REV. LINDA GOODMAN

    ​Gongs have been tools for healing, relaxation, and connecting with Spirit for thousands of years. There is evidence that places the use of the gong as far back as 16,000 B.C.

    In a gong bath, you simply lie back and let the deep, penetrating sounds of the gong wash over you (hence the term "bath"). The frequencies of the gong will quickly transport you into the theta and delta brain waves of deepest meditation where guidance may be received, buried emotional trauma may be released, and healing may occur at the innermost vibrational level.

    We welcome you into this altered state.

    Program Objectives:  Achieving a state of deep relaxation, meditation, and healing.

    Who will this program benefit?  Everyone

    Minimum/Maximum Number of Participants: 3/12

    Start/End Time:  2:00 PM/3:30 PM

    About the Presenter:  Rev. Linda is a Minister Emerita of the Tree of Life Interfaith Temple. She has been a practitioner of sound and vibrational healing for nearly 40 years, using tuning forks, crystal bowls, singing bowls, chimes, and gongs.
