Jerry Stocking – Spiritual Seduction
Welcome to the edge where nothing is at it seems. The intensity is delicious and accompanied by confusion and a mandatory release of the illusion of control. Existence hops into the driver’s seat. Diversions and superficiality are relegated to the trunk, less useful to your futures than the spare tire.
Earthly existence is sufficiently finite to have rationality and thinking seem to rule the day in a sea of emotion. Spiritual Seduction invites you to the other side where reality rules and consistency is a thing of the past. Here attention span stretches intensely around everything bonding you to perfect pleasure so certainly, though shadowed, within you.
Shine, it’s a bumpy, funny sometimes unsettling ride but it’s yours to take. The least available is a purified Earthly existences. What’s beyond? Read and find out.
About Jerry Stocking
A philosopher when you need one!
Jerry Stocking is a modern day Thoreau living in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains in North Georgia with a view of our culture from the outside. Each day in his mountain retreat is an endless exploration of existence, consciousness, and feeling what it is to be a human being. Being present and mapping the terrain back to who we really are is Jerry’s main occupation. His thirty-two acre farm creates an atmosphere conducive to introspection, opening, and playing, which are often lacking in our fast-paced world.
Jerry Stocking has two children, Emily (23), Judson (18), and a growing cast of friends and players. There is a continuous stream of fascinating and interested people traveling to the farm. Home to various seminars and retreats, it has unlimited areas for wandering, ponds for dipping, a rock garden for Chi Kung, owls, deer, coyotes, great oak trees, a blueberry orchard, and a daily sunrise and sunset inviting reverence.
Jerry’s credentials are impressive in education and experience alike. A Master Practitioner of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Jerry has been studying and using NLP for 18 years. He is an Associate Instructor of the art of Chi Kung. He has done extensive training in other-than-conscious communication and no-fault psychology. He graduated in 1974 from Northern Michigan University with degrees in psychology and philosophy.
Still learning and exploring daily, Jerry has reached a point where he is able to give back some of what he has learned in hopes that it will improve the quality of life for others. In addition to personal coaching he now hosts frequent tele-classes, and leads workshops in NYC, throughout the USA, and abroad. His courses and coaching are a mixture of art and craft uniting mind and body into a personal and pragmatic alliance.
Hasn’t always lived in the mountains. He used to live in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and drive to work wearing a suit and tie. He was a successful financial consultant at Shearson-Lehman Brothers. His past careers span the gamut of experience from owning two retail stores, to industrial design, to selling investments. Yet all of Jerry’s occupations have some things in common; he was successful at each of them and all of his job changes required a greater commitment to people and an increased ability to relate effectively with clients and co-workers.
Jerry Stocking loves people and is committed to finding out what is possible for “us” as human beings. His love of people and desire to contribute to them are apparent in his writings, books, and seminars. Jerry is founder of a non- profit educational corporation, A Choice Experience, Inc., which focuses on exploring human possibility and gently exposing illusion. He also runs a publishing company named
