Louise Kay ~ Embodied Awareness
If you bring your attention fully present into the now, and inquire with a open curiosity into the truth of this moment, what is discovered is that underlying all experiences lies an invisible, potent presence or awareness. All else appears in and is perceived by this awareness. As this consciousness penetrates the physical body, unconscious beliefs, conditioning and unprocessed emotions rise to the surface to be consciously felt and transmuted. This process of deep healing and maturing takes place over time, while one remains anchored in the formlessness of the unending now. In her early thirties Louise felt a deep call in her heart to visit India, where she experienced a profound spiritual awakening. As she opened more to this non-dual truth, she experienced a deepening and integration, and a new form of expression revealed itself. Louise is passionate about supporting people to live a life of presence and unconditional love.

Sunday, November 8, 2026 @ 12:00pm-2:00pm (Pacific Time) at Online Video Meeting (phone access also available)Ishita Sharma ~ The Spiritual Ego and Walking in Joy
Spiritual bypassing is inevitable and often invisible. The spiritual ego is often one of the subtlest mechanisms of obscuration on the path to awakening. As our sense of self expands, our ideas of that expansion can themselves become veils to it. Let's explore the metaphysics of that innocence and ignorance, and find a sweeter, softer way to relate within and without. Ishita Sharma serves as a spiritual teacher, healing mirror, embodiment partner, and Core Energetics Practitioner of body-based psychotherapy. Teaching Universal principles of healing and mysticism, she is devoted to supporting healing and awakening in all those committed to living a bright and connected life, sharing their gifts for the good of the Whole.
Saturday, November 14, 2026 @ 10:00am - 11:30am (Pacific Time) at Online Video Meeting (phone access also available)Mikael Hedman ~ Working Directly with Consciousness (In-Person)
A shift in consciousness can change your entire relationship with what is already here. You may find freedom where you once felt confined, or a directness of experience that the effort to understand have kept just out of reach. Visiting from Sweden, Mikael Hedman offers an evening devoted to helping you experience this for yourself. His work draws on an intimate knowledge of consciousness and a precise sensitivity to where your attention becomes caught. The emphasis is on direct experience and integration: recognizing a shift for yourself, learning to sustain it, and allowing it to inform how you live. Mikael Hedman is a former military officer whose work arises from a profound and enduring shift in consciousness in 2015. He combines an unwavering clarity of consciousness with a warm interest in you as a person. At the heart of his work is a simple willingness to meet you where you are. He helps you approach what you habitually turn away from, and discover what becomes possible when you can finally meet yourself there.
