Fridays 10:30 am – 12:30 pm Pacific
2025: January 17, 31, February 14, 28, March 14, 28, April 18, 25, May 9, 23, June 13, 20 (June 27 Alternative)
Welcome!
I’m honored to embark on this transformative journey with you. This program invites you to deepen your embodiment of Realization Process principles while refining your capacity to facilitate profound healing and awakening in others.
“My vision is that new teachers have a chance to learn from very experienced teachers what has been most important, and most transformative, for them – the alchemy of their own personality and history with what I have taught – as well as how they have each brought it out into the world, and I think you have managed to do that beautifully.”
— Judith Blackstone, PhD, Realization Process Founder
Who This Is For
Graduates of Mentoring I who want to:
- Deepen their embodiment of Realization Process
- Refine their capacity to facilitate healing and awakening
- Cultivate a transformational presence in both personal and professional settings
The Journey Ahead
This six-month mentoring program is an opportunity to lead a 30-40 minute live healing session designed to catalyze transformation for both you and your peers.
Through private meetings, we’ll refine your session to ensure it emerges from your depth, creativity, and authentic presence. Afterward, we’ll engage in group dialogue, exploring what has unfolded and deepening our insights together.
In the second half of each session, I will follow the energy and interests of our group, guiding somatic inquiries that illuminate the chapter’s themes. Together, we’ll refine our perceptual and relational sensitivities, exploring subtle ways of facilitating healing through presence, attunement, and direct experience.
We’ll immerse ourselves in Judith Blackstone’s The Intimate Life: Awakening to the Spiritual Essence in Yourself and Others, engaging in experiential practices that bring its teachings to life.
