Eckhart Tolle has described Steve Taylor's work as ‘an important contribution to the shift in consciousness which is happening on our planet at present.’
Description: 
Spiritual psychologist Steve Taylor will highlight several aspects of spiritual awakening, including gratitude, altruism, presence, disidentification from the ego-mind and acceptance.
 
We will cultivate these qualities through meditations, exercises and discussions, gaining contact with the spiritual essence of our beings, and so experiencing a profound sense of peace and harmony. Steve will read several unpublished poetic meditations to illustrate these qualities.
 
We will also explore the link between presence and creativity, by harnessing our own poetic and descriptive powers. Steve will draw from his new book Spiritual Science, and also his previous books The Calm Center and The Leap. Since the above are the essential qualities of spiritual awakening, by cultivating them we will undergo a process of awakening.
