In this Q&A session from the 2022 Valentine’s Intensive, John gives participants nuanced answers to common questions that arise during solo and partner practices.

Who this compilation is for:

Our weekend intensives attract participants from all levels. Some are advanced practitioners. Others are experiencing John and this work for the first time. So the questions and teachings offered here will cover a wide range of terms and topics. If you have a question about any of the content in the Virtual Workshop, we highly encourage you to bring it to John during one of our monthly Office Hours calls that are included with your membership. You can find the dates and times of the upcoming calls here: https://www.johnwineland.com/streaming
