SUMMARY:Satsang: When Our Flaws Become Our Superpower
DESCRIPTION:ONLINE & IN-PERSON with Rev. Diana Dharani Diaz\n$5-$20 | Enroll for free\, use promo code FREE \nBook now/OnlinePlease register in advance: a Zoom link will be emailed 1 hour before the session\, or join Zoom directly via your Momence dashboard. \nBook now/In-PersonWe appreciate advance registration. \nCan our worst traits actually become our superpowers? Throughout history\, we see incredible stories of transformation—sinners turned saints\, gang members turned role models\, and thieves turned philanthropists. In this inspiring Satsang\, we will look at the powerful life story of St. Moses the Black. After escaping a life of forced slavery\, he rose to power as a ruthless criminal terrorizing the desert. Everything changed\, however\, during a gang break-in at a desert monastery that completely shifted his trajectory. But not without trials and struggle. Together\, we will discover how we can channel our own personal intensity and redirect our inner power to align with our highest\, divine potential.\nEveryone is welcome to stay for tea and light snacks afterwards.\nSatsang is a special time for us to come together as a community. In Sanskrit\, Sat means truth and Sangha means community. Satsang offers an opportunity to come together to share spiritual teachings. The philosophy of Integral Yoga is explored often through an informal discussion. Although our spiritual paths may diverge\, the act of sharing spiritual teachings with others is inspiring and creates a solid foundation for continued practice. \nPeople of all faiths are welcome.\n\nDiana “Dharani” Díaz\, MA\, RYT 500\, is a writer and Yoga teacher certified in Yoga for Stress Management\, Accessible Yoga\, Yoga for Cancer and Chronic Illness\, and Holistic Sound Resonance\, among others. Diana is passionate about sharing both yoga and writing with marginalized communities. She teaches yoga online for Sister Mentors and currently serves as vice president of Voices of Our Nation’s Arts (VONA)\, an organization that nurtures writers of color. She particularly enjoys the practice of Yoga Nidra\, which aligns with her beliefs in the healing power of words and the nature of the true Self being peace.
