SUMMARY:Online Movie Night
DESCRIPTION:Join us on May 1st\, 2026 at 6:30 PM CST for an online viewing of Samadhi Part 3: The Pathless Path\, the powerful third installment in the Samadhi documentary series. This visually stunning and deeply contemplative film explores the timeless spiritual question of awakening and the journey beyond conditioned identity. Drawing from ancient wisdom traditions and modern insights\, the film invites viewers to examine the nature of consciousness and what it means to move beyond the illusion of the separate self. \nThe Pathless Path explores the deeper dimensions of inner freedom\, pointing toward the direct experience of truth beyond belief systems\, labels\, and concepts. Through evocative imagery and thoughtful narration\, the film encourages viewers to look inward and question the assumptions that shape our understanding of who we are and how we experience the world. \nFollowing the film\, participants will be invited to join optional breakout rooms where you can connect with others and share reflections on the themes presented. These small group conversations create an opportunity for meaningful dialogue\, personal insight\, and a deeper sense of community as we explore the ideas and experiences that the film brings forward. \nWhether you are encountering these teachings for the first time or have been exploring them for years\, this evening offers a welcoming space to watch\, reflect\, and engage in thoughtful conversation together. \n\n\n\nThis event is Free\nClick the button below at 6:30pm CST to join.\n\nJoin Zoom Now

SUMMARY:Step Out! – POSSIBILITIES- with Rev Karen Fry
DESCRIPTION:Move from Certainty to Trust\nWhat if the only thing standing between you and your next breakthrough… is the need for certainty? \nIn this powerful and experiential workshop\, Rev. Karen Fry invites you into a deeper engagement with the Science of Mind Creative Process — not as theory\, but as lived practice. \nMost of us don’t lack desire.\nWe don’t lack vision.\nWe don’t even lack opportunity. \nWe shut down possibility before it can unfold. \nSomewhere along the way\, we learned to say:\n“That will never happen.”\n“I could never do that.”\n“I don’t know how.”\n“It’s too late.” \nBut the Creative Process doesn’t respond to limitation.\nIt responds to mental equivalent.\nIt responds to imagination.\nIt responds to embodied declaration. \nIn Step Out! – POSSIBILITIES\, you will:\n– Identify where you’ve quietly closed the door on possibility\n– Uncover the underlying beliefs that limit your vision\n– Learn how to move from “I want” to “I have” in consciousness\n– Practice creating intention without clinging to form\n– Build a living mental equivalent that activates the Law\n– Take a courageous step from certainty into trust \nThrough guided exercises\, partner work\, active imagination\, and embodied declaration\, you will experience the shift from wishing… to knowing. \nThis isn’t positive thinking.\nIt’s not brainstorming.\nIt’s not pretending. \nIt’s engaging the Creative Process at the level where transformation actually happens. \nPossibilities are not guarantees.\nThey are invitations. \nAnd when you step toward them — even imperfectly — the Universe meets you there. \nCome ready to imagine boldly.\nDeclare courageously.\nTrust deeply.\nAnd step out. \nLed by Rev Karen Fry \nCost $35 \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:New Year’s Day - Burning Bowl Ritual
DESCRIPTION:New Year’s Day – Burning Bowl Ritual\nThursday\, January 1\, 2026\nIn Person & Online\n12:00 – 2:00pm\nOur Annual Burning Bowl Ritual has been a favorite at CSLDallas for over 20 years. We begin by releasing 2025 along with whatever we don’t want to keep carrying around\, Let’s burn up the old\, literally! Let that sh*t go! Then we pause\, for a moment\, in the sweet in-between. A breath. An opening…and then the possibility.   \nHow will we take up the challenges of this New Year? Not with a list of resolutions\, nor a list of fears. Rather\, we listen for the revelation in the whisper of our heart or the shout from our soul - who will we be? what will we contribute? where will we stand?   \nThis year we practice letting go and then taking up in a whole new way! Explore and experiment with Rev Marquita as our guide.  \nThe only way out is through\, and the only way through is with intention\, practice and community. Let it be us\, traveling together through 2026\, in co-creation with each other\, with the soul of humanity\, and with the unquenchable universal presence of Divine Life\, Light and Love!  \nThe Event Includes:  \n\nPowerful Music \nCompelling Ritual \nFreeing Fire \nObserving Self Awareness \nEngaging in Simple practice \nA Way to Move Forward \n\nFollowing the ritual join us in Berrong Lounge for light snacks  \nBring the whole family! JOY Village will be open and celebrating with a burning bowl experience for the kids and teens.  \nWatch on Facebook: www.facebook.com/csldallas\nWatch on YouTube: www.youtube.com/csldallas

SUMMARY:How Old Are You Today - Book Signing
DESCRIPTION:What If Dementia Didn’t Mean the End of Connection—But the Beginning of Something Deeper?\n\n\nNew memoir How Old Are You Today? Dementia\, A Mother\, A Daughter\, and The Game That Transformed Their Lives offers a personal story of caregiving\, connection\, and unexpected transformation.\n\nWhen Glenna Hecht’s fiercely independent mother began slipping into the fog of dementia\, their relationship changed overnight. So did\nGlenna’s life. In her intimate and unexpected memoir\, How Old Are You Today? Dementia\, A Mother\, A Daughter\, and The Game That Transformed Their Lives\, Glenna — a national speaker\, author\, consultant\, and daughter — shares a story that’s deeply personal\, often funny\, and profoundly resonant for anyone navigating memory loss and caregiving.\n\nWithin days of its debut\, the book became a #1 New Release in both Aging Parents and Eldercare categories on Amazon.\nAt the heart of the story is a simple daily question — a ritual Glenna created to connect with her mother in the midst of confusion and loss. That question became the start of a game that transformed their relationship.\n\n\nCome meet Glenna for her book signing at CSLDallas and learn more about her inspiring story and how this book came about to transform her lives and so many others.\n\nBio\nGlenna Hecht is a speaker\, author\, consultant\, and daughter who fought to stay connected when dementia tried to erase \nher mother. What began as a search for a way to break through confusion became a game—one that opened the door to memory\, sparked laughter\, and transformed their final years\ntogether.\n\nWith over three decades of experience leading people\, developing leaders\, and building cultures for powerhouse brands like Starbucks\, Marshall Field’s\, and The Levy Restaurants at Disney\, Glenna has always been fascinated by how human connection can transform outcomes—whether caring for people in a company or caring for a loved one. For the past 15 years\, she has led her own firm\, Humanistic Consulting\, delivering leadership development\, training\, and HR expertise to organizations across the country. She has worked with more than 70\,000 employees\, but her most personal and life-changing role was as a caregiver.\n\nHer memoir\, How Old Are You Today? Dementia\, A Mother\, A Daughter\, and The Game That Transformed Their Lives\, blends brutal honesty\, vulnerability\, hope\, and humor to share what it’s really like to navigate dementia—and how one simple question can keep a relationship alive even as memory fades.\n\nGlenna is a two-time author\, a sought-after speaker\, and the voice behind the What the Hecht? blog\, where she brings wit and candor to conversations about work\, life\, and the human side of leadership. She’s committed to service and making a difference\, volunteering at Dallas theaters\, serving on a nonprofit board\, and creating the GJ Hecht Scholarship for Women to Make a Difference. Through her business\, she donates proceeds to 13 global charities — because for her\, making an impact means giving back.

Early Bird Registration before October 26 $100 \n  \nRegister Now\nMeet Your Facilitators: \nChristine Volkmer\, RScP\nNow in my sixth decade\, I have traveled a long road with no road map…starting with how to leave an unconscious marriage\, and a faith that no longer worked for me\, to a new life as a lesbian mom\, raising six boys with my partner\, all while drowning in fear of losing my kids\, my mind\, my job\, and pretending I didn’t have a ridiculous problem with low self-esteem. I battled guilt for the pain those around me experienced as I learned to use my voice and make a choice for a life that called me. And all of their pain\, real or imagined\, ran around inside my body manifesting as one health issue after another. I survived with the help of a therapist\, but I learned to thrive with spiritual tools that shifted the ground of my being\, my perspective\, and my ability to work through emotions and emerge with a deeper sense of me\, of my true Self. I bring my passion for teaching\, spirituality\, coaching\, connection\, and personal growth with a holistic approach to just about everything I do. Learning to live FROM that place is the game changer I love to share. \n  \nSherry Wood\, RScP\nSherry has joyfully served the CSLDallas community in many capacities since becoming a member in 2003. She has served the community at every level of leadership and is recognized for the wisdom and consciousness she brings to the table. Since becoming a licensed Practitioner/Spiritual Coach in 2008\, Sherry has taught classes\, provided 1-1 coaching for individuals\, co-facilitated community retreats\, as well as providing prayer support for community members and the CSLDallas staff.  Creating containers where transformative experiences can occur is one of her passions…the place where authentic human connection dances with the divine\, no matter our age or stage in life. It’s the willingness to suit up and show up\, and to embrace the Good that is available to each and every one of us.
