Clove&Clive

Creating the possibility of conscious loving and conscious living through a transformative journey of MINDFULNESS




Clove&Clive wishes you a Blessed New Lunar Year.

We will be closed from
23 - 27 Jan 2012 (inclusive).


The search for a life of meaning and purpose, free from stress, frustrations and problems, is the quest of every person's existence. Facing up to life's challenges often calls for a wholesome state of mind and clarity of our thoughts and feelings before we can make a clear and conscious choice in whatever we do.


Why mindfulness meditation?
Mindfulness meditation is mind work, the work of being aware. Mindfulness, also known as awareness, is the art of living in the now and giving our fullest attention to its presence. A mind that is still, calm and alert is an invaluable asset in handling life's tribulations. With clear awareness, we can begin to see things as it is, and not from the world of concepts, ideas and judgments.

By learning to understand the way the mind works, we are able to overcome perceived obstacles and difficulties with greater ease. We begin to create more authentic, peaceful and harmonious relationships, and will come to have a deeper degree of love, patience and understanding for ourselves and others.

Mindfulness or awareness will add immeasurable value to the quality of our day-to-day living.

What we offer
Courses offered at Clove&Clive are based on the theme of mindfulness of the here and now. Waking up to reality is the first step towards accessing deeper wisdom and insight into what life is all about. As we continue along our journey of spiritual and self discovery, we’ll come to realize that happiness, inner peace and contentment comes from within, and cannot be found on the outside.

  The YOU Session
Listening to YOU

Recognizing the need for each of us to have a sacred and safe space to express ourselves, Clove&Clive is now hosting a one-to-one session for those who need someone to listen to, or to talk to.

This session is aimed at providing a space for individuals to express themselves freely in a loving, non-judgmental environment, and at the same time seek clarity on matters which are deemed private relating to their inward journey or any others which they hold dearly in their hearts in areas such as relationships, family, careers, self and etc.

These sessions are private and will be kept confidential between the facilitator and the individual. Strictly by appointment basis. Walk-ins are not entertained.

Please inform that for this week, the YOU session will be held on Monday instead Tuesday. 

Monday, 30 Jan 2012,
8:15pm - 9:00pm & 9:15pm - 10:00pm
(2 slots - please choose either)
There is no fee involved but your heartfelt appreciation to sustain the sessions are helpful and most graciously welcomed.



  Book Exchange
Gift exchange for mutual upliftment

Yes, it is that time of the year again... Clove&Clive’s 5th annual book exchange session.

Supporting the continuous practice and growth of individual's spiritual path has always been one of Clove&Clive’s objectives as we believe that broadening of our understanding in each of our journey is essential. Knowledge coming in any form is never too much and is important as they serve as a sound foundation in each of us for further growth in the path.

This event uplifted many who have attended past years' sessions and we trust that this year will be no different.
 
For this event, you are invited to hunt for a right title of your choice; be it in the form of a book, audio CD or movie with spiritual theme; as a form of gift during the book exchange session. This will provide an opportunity for another blessed friend amongst us to benefit from your gift. You will never know how your choice of gift may uplift another or bring further insights to deepen the understanding of self. And yes, if you wish to, you may also wrap your gift to surprise the receiver!

We request your confirmation of registration and attendance to the Book Exchange Event via call/sms or email to ensure comfort for all. Contact us now to join in the fun!

  Mindfulness—A Starting Point
Exploring the Foundations of Mindfulness Meditation

What is Mindfulness Meditation? In simple layman terms, it is the cultivation of mindfulness, keen awareness and right understanding of the reality and true nature of our mind and body processes through moment-to-moment observation.

We are conditioned to react endlessly to external stimuli such as people we meet, situations we are faced with. In short, external factors influence and determine our “mood”, “happiness” or “unhappiness”. The benefits of this course is to enable you to cultivate positive factors such as calmness, contentment, and concentration, which ultimately leads to true peace and happiness.

This course allows you to start up a daily meditation practice, develop a calmer mind, become more loving, forgiving, and patient and apply basic knowledge and techniques of Mindfulness practice.

Wednesdays,  8 Feb – 14 Mar 2012, 8:15pm-10:30pm
(6 evening sessions, excludes 15 Feb.)
Open fee structure applies. Read more for details.

  A Course in Miracles Study Group
Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists.

Understandably, some of us hold different versions of the Course; one being published by Foundation for Inner Peace (FIP) and one being published by Course in Miracles Society (CIMS). We would like to point out that although there are varying degrees of the text expressed in both versions of the Course, the essence of the Course remains the same, that is,

Nothing real can be threatened.
Nothing unreal exists.

We noticed that each chapter, with its sub-topics is a little too much and too vast to cover in each context of its own during our previous sessions together due to the constraint of time.

We are now streamlining the coverage of text to be read, discussed and pondered upon with the objective of deriving the true meaning of each context of what is being expressed by the Course for the benefit of our journey with the Course.

For the upcoming study group session on 18 Feb 2012, Saturday, 3:00pm – 6:00pm, kindly read the following: -

For FIP version
Chapter 7, THE GIFTS OF THE KINGDOM
III)  The Reality of the Kingdom
IV)  Healing as the Recognition of Truth

For CIMS version
Chapter seven, The Consistency of the Kingdom
IV)   THE UNIFIED CURRICULUM*
V)  THE RECOGNITION OF TRUTH

*This is to note that under IV. THE UNIFIED CURRICULUM (CIMS version), Line 19 up till half of the Line 24 is not found within the Text of the FIP version. Those who wish to obtain the additional text in the CIMS version is welcomed to contact Geraldine.

Saturday, 18 Feb 2012, 3:00pm – 6:00pm
Financial contributions are welcomed towards the maintenance of our venue.






  BUSTING the Mind Game
Bringing Wisdom to the Frontier

Have you ever given a moment of thought of:

Why is this happening to me… AGAIN?!
Why are they doing this to me… again?!
Why am I doing this to myself… again?!
Why can’t life just cooperate?

If your answer is “yes” to any of these questions, you’ve been unknowingly playing the Mind Game. You either learnt in a default way or were taught certain rules and regulations, with which you’ve been following them without questioning their real­ity. And you become a pro at playing this game where you pile up more and more winnings—except you can’t win this game as it has no ending.

The only way to bust yourself loose from this Mind Game is to discard the rules and regulations that binds you, and start creating a new programme with a new set of ideas that leads you to a freer direction.

This workshop presents radical ideas and practical tools for transformation and requires courage to face what may not always be pleasant or “feel good” — however, the rewards and results will bring about positive and loving transformations to you and your family in many wonderful and beautiful ways.

Friday night, Saturday & Sunday, 24 - 26 Feb 2012,
Friday [8:15pm - 10:15pm], Sat & Sun [9:00am - 6:00pm]







  Free Talk: The Boon and Bane of Perception
by Tuck Loon

Fortunately because of perception we are able to experience what we have now. Unfortunately, perception also make us remember our difficult past as if it is actually happening now and thus we can still feel the pain though it is already gone.

So what's in perception and how can we wisefooly:) work with it so as to give us the best ride in life, with minimum bumps? A topic that involves you, necessarily.

Journey with Tuck Loon in another one of his free talks with Mindfulness as its central theme.

Saturday, 25 February 2012, 8:15pm-9:30pm  (With Q&A)
Admission is FREE and financial contributions are welcomed towards the maintenance of our venue.



  Wisdom Meditation
Redefining meditation and its practicality in daily life

Wisdom unlocks the mystery of our stress and brings forth a meaningful life. In this course participants are guided to recognize for themselves that the choice of a complain-free life is ever possible here and now by fully embracing what is offered in the present.

By taking each step in the Now, this course enables us to develop the skill of silent recognition into the reality of things as they truly are, instead of the unreal created by our concepts of judgments, ideas and opinions of what is out in the world by our resistance and holding on. By encouraging recognition and understanding of our inner mind through mindfulness, wisdom begins to blossom in our life.

Thursdays, 1 Mar - 5 Apr 2012, 8:15pm-10:30pm
(Total 6 sessions.)
Open fee structure applies. Read more for details.
