The feminine and masculine paths illuminate and engage different aspects of energy, attention and anatomy in remembering Wholeness. A man's body and a woman's body are designed differently, and that has ramifications on the maturation of our mystical paths. Popular wisdom traditions are skewed by a primarily masculine lens.

In this event just for women, we will explore what embodiment beyond awakening entails uniquely for our feminine incarnations, learning from and honoring the female mystics who have walked before us, while mining the gold hidden in our own unique blueprints.
Ishita Sharma 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.

We live in a world that celebrates doing. We measure our days by what we accomplished, and even our spiritual life can become another project, another attempt to improve ourselves or to get somewhere in particular.

But what if we've gotten the order backwards?

What if doing was never meant to define who we are, but to arise naturally from who we are?

In this gathering, we'll explore the relationship between being and doing, and how much of our striving comes from forgetting the ground of our own Being. We'll look at what becomes possible when we rest more deeply in the simple fact of our existence.

Jeannie Zandi is known for her fierce tenderness, irreverent wisdom, and unwavering presence, she creates powerful spaces for transformation, where truth is met in the raw, and awakening moves beyond concept into lived reality.

What does it mean to surrender to love? Is it possible to do so and live in the world? These are some of the questions that arise in the desire to awaken. Love is the medicine and the essential teacher that reveals the living truth, freeing us from the burden of unnecessary suffering.

Together we will inquire into what it is that we believe is in the way of loving or being loved. We will discover the truth about who we are and what our essential desire is for our life, and we will open to the living truth of what does not come and go, and the possibility to realize that it is your essential nature.

Lisa Schumacher has been a devoted student of her beloved teacher Gangaji, who, in 2005, invited her to begin sharing Satsang. Lisa's approach is rooted in direct self-inquiry, stillness, and the intimate discovery of truth of who you are. She offers a rare and grounded presence, inviting everyone she meets directly into their own loving heart and the quiet recognition of what is already whole and free.

For centuries, meditation instruction has rested on a single assumption: that awareness must be held — apply effort, sustain attention, and don’t let go. The result is a state of focus that is genuinely useful, but which remains conditioned and maintained by concentration.

This workshop teaches the opposite.

Rather than sustaining awareness, you will be instructed to release it.
The aim is to bring to rest the grasping, efforting, and attempting functions of the mind — the very machinery that keeps the present moment feeling like something to be reached rather than something already fully here.

Ryan Burton is a meditation teacher and guide in the non-dual traditions, with over seventeen years of practice across Dhammakaya Theravada, Dzogchen, Vedanta, and Zen.

When the separate self dissolves and awakens to one's natural being, in deep meditation, in nature, in love, what remains is not emptiness. It is intimacy. With everything.

And yet most of us cannot sustain it. Because the nervous system learned early that connection was not always safe.

But the very places we feel most broken, most defended, most disconnected, are not obstacles to that intimacy. They are the doorway into it. What if the path is not away from attachment but through it, into the embodied realization of being both awake and attached?

Awakening to our true nature does not automatically resolve the nervous system patterns organized around protection. This series explores that meeting point — where spiritual realization and the living body learn to breathe together.

Ajaya Sommers' work lives at the intersection of somatic intelligence, embodied awakening, relational intimacy, and non-dual inquiry, helping people reclaim presence, coherence, and deeper connection to themselves, others and Life itself.

What is the purpose of identity, and how do you surrender through it into True freedom? Come explore the divine role of Identity. Discover how to surrender through the conditioned self and experience true freedom during Satsang and soul transmission in person with Kristin Kirk.

Kristin Kirk is an international healer, spiritual teacher and writer who has been gifted extraordinary vision and healing capacities from her 2003 awakening. She accesses our enlightened self and multidimensional true nature to dissolve our wounds, karma, and conditioning into light and reveal our innate wholeness. Her transformative energy and powerful transmissions accelerate the awakening process and foster deep spiritual growth for many.

Awakening can bring greater peace, clarity, and freedom. And on this path, many of us eventually encounter another invitation: the call to live more fully.

Beneath our habits, fears, and familiar identities, there is a natural impulse toward authenticity, vitality, creativity, and expression.

In this gathering, we’ll explore what it means to listen for, and trust this call of aliveness, and explore how awakening can reveal the gifts, qualities, and possibilities already seeking expression through us.

Sarah is an awakening trail guide, intuitive energy healer, and mystic whose work explores awakening, embodiment, and the fullness of being. She offers grounded and compassionate support for realization, integration, and authentic living.

In this session, Stephen will energetically shift you out of the narrative of the seeker and draw you into the silent presence that is already here.

Following a brief meditation and a reflection on the mechanics of awakening, the floor will open for personalized guidance and deep inquiry.

Whether you'd like the opportunity to ask your most pressing spiritual questions, or simply wish to resonate in a palpable field of heightened awareness, this space will help clarify the way things are.
