Romantic relationships are a major part of our lives and an area where many of us have very little training–outside of the behaviors modeled by our families, social circles and the media.Join Michael as he dives into some of the most empowering findings regarding relationships, including how to identify specific relationship dynamics, an overview of helpful spiritual teachings regarding partnership, and practical tools to deepen our connections, change behaviors and have a more mindful approach to dating. 

The workshop includes an interactive talk, followed by Q & A, and is excellent for partners or singles.

Attendees will:

• Understand the spiritual/psychological reasons behind why you choose the partners you do (why you are “attracted” to certain people) and why you argue.

• Learn how to cultivate more understanding, intimacy, depth and connection with yourself and your partner.

• Gain insights into making the transition from a transactional relationship to a more conscious relationship.

Doors open at 6:30pm. Class will begin at 7pm under the covered terrace next to the large ballroom. If it is raining too much, we will move into the large ballroom. Garden gates will close at 7:10pm.

Parking is available at Miami Beach City Hall, Lincoln Road Mall Parking, and if you are lucky, right next to the garden.

Michael Stasko was born and raised in Miami, Florida. He earned a master’s degree in aerospace engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology as NASA research fellow. Later, while working as an analyst in spacecraft control, Michael was deeply moved by a series of personal insights and spiritual experiences that prompted him to leave his career and spend the next 10 years living in South India.

From 2010-2019, Michael lived in an ashram and dedicated his life to spirituality and deepening his practice of meditation, philosophy, breath-work and Sanskrit chanting. In 2019, he moved back to Miami where he offers coaching on spiritual growth, conscious relationships and integration as well as teaches meditation and chanting (both in person and online).
