Lynn Marie Lumiere, MFT, SEP ~ NONDUAL TRAUMA HEALING ~ A Deep Dive Retreat into Embodied Presence

Friday, October 17, 2025 @ 9:00am - 12:00pm (Pacific Time), 3 Day Retreat includes Oct 17, 18 & 19

We have all been touched to by trauma to some degree. Trauma can be defined as any experience that takes us out of our window of tolerance and leaves us with high levels of stress in our nervous system. It has also been defined as the inability to be present in the here and now because we get stuck in the past, or in overwhelm. Therefore, healing trauma is an integral part of our nondual awakening and embodiment process. When all of who we are is met in/as our essential nature, there is no more division and we are whole, empowered and healed. We become embodied presence.

Lynn Marie will focus on awakening to true nature as well as developing a balanced nervous system, so you have more ability to remain awake and meet all that arises within the body-mind in your undivided nature. She will also provide skillful means that are often needed to be present with highly stressful experience. Lynn Marie offers a rare blend of embodied spiritual wisdom with a skilled therapeutic approach that facilitates healing of psychological trauma/wounding and the embodiment of awakening.

Pamela Wilson ~ Offer Everything to Love ~ 4 Part Online Retreat

Monday, October 20, 2025 @ 10:00am - 12:00pm (Pacific Time), part of a 4-Part Retreat, includes Oct. 20, 23, 27 & 30

If we offer everything to Love, then the body does not have to carry anything, especially the past. What is uncomfortable is the accumulated weight of the past. As Stillness said recently within: "The birds do not keep their old feathers, nor do snakes carry their shed skin in their mouth!" We have full permission from Stillness to be free of our own and humanity's shared history and cultural beliefs. It is okay to be free of the past! It has passed!

What if Love knows best! The unwinding ribbons of constraint respond beautifully when they notice there is no time required for freedom. And no need to maintain enough conditioning to fit in.

Please join your fellow sages to explore Inner Satsang, blessing all within that felt it was hiding us to keep us safe!

Pamela Wilson evokes through dialogue, inquiry and her very presence the qualities of unconditional love and radical acceptance. She is celebrated for her ability to open the heart and create a space in which long-cherished struggles and notions about one’s identity relax.

Dorothy Hunt ~ Forgiving the Dream

Saturday, October 25, 2025 @ 9:30am-11:30am (Pacific Time)

What occurs between the feeling of “I can’t forgive” and realizing “there is no one TO forgive?” In this exploration, we will exclude any “shoulds,” and focus on what is real, what is true, and what is here beneath our judgments, anger, hurts, and fears. Are we curious and courageous enough to look deeply? What happens when we find ourselves in a bigger energy field than the wounds and identities we seem to carry?

When something truly awakens to who/what we are, we may realize we have been living in a dream of separation that really isn’t true. If all of life is an expression of the “One without a second,” who is there to forgive? And yet, the Love we most deeply ARE, may one day move to forgive both the dreamer and the dream.

Dorothy Hunt serves as Spiritual Director of Moon Mountain Sangha, teaching at the request and in the spiritual lineage of Adyashanti. Her teaching blends Advaita and Zen with a deep welcoming of the human expressions of the Mystery. In addition, she is a contributing author to two books on Nondual Wisdom and Psychotherapy, and the editor of Love: A Fruit Always in Season.

Stephan Bodian ~ Just This! An Invitation to Rest in the Joy and Fulfillment of Nondual Presence

Saturday, November 1, 2025 @ 9:00am-10:30am (Pacific Time)

All those spiritual words mean just one thing: Coming home to the ease and simplicity of right now, beyond the limiting projections of the mind! Most of us spend most of our time suffering in the dream of past and future, of how it should have been then and should be next week. But in the Now there are no problems to solve, just Being endlessly unfolding in its innately perfect, unarguable, and mysterious way.

Let’s come together to rest in the joy and fulfillment of Being as it is.

Stephan Bodian is a teacher in the nondual wisdom tradition of Zen, Dzogchen, and Advaita Vedanta. As a licensed psychotherapist, he brings a deep understanding of the impact of trauma and early conditioning on the process of spiritual realization. He studied for many years with Advaita master Jean Klein and received Dharma transmission from Adyashanti in 2001.

Susanne Marie ~ Awakening to Connection: Why Belonging Matters (In-Person Event)

Sunday, November 2, 2025 @ 2:00pm~4:00pm, with refreshments until 5:00.
Sebastopol, 8476 Sonoma Ave.
Sebastopol, CA,
+ Google Map

At the heart of being human lies a deep longing to belong: to one another, to Spirit, to the Earth, and to ourselves. True wholeness arises when we honor both our inner autonomy and our connection to the greater web of life. Without a felt sense of belonging, we can become isolated, untethered, and alone.

In this gathering, we’ll explore what it truly means to come home within ourselves, in relationship with others, and as part of something larger. As we recognize our deep interconnection, we open to the care and compassion that naturally arise, the essence of a full-circle spiritual awakening.

Susanne Marie offers integrated teachings in support of freedom, and the celebration of our common essence of love and unity with all life. As a natural empath, her teaching style is heart-centered and practical, with a focus on supporting you in your unique awakening journey.
Note that Daylight Savings Time ends at 2 am Nov. 2nd.. Set your clocks back 1 hour!

Join Jeannie to explore how unconscious habits of identification, personalizing, and victim stance keep us chained to suffering. By slowing down to meet our raw sensations rather than spinning them into stories, we reclaim responsibility for our inner life and discover the gold hidden beneath our discomfort.

Jeannie Zandi is a nondual spiritual teacher and guide for embodied awakening, inviting students to fully inhabit their human lives with presence, clarity, and love. 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.

In these immense times, we need the refuge that spiritual practice provides to nurture our access to the luminous love and clarity of our shared Being.

Together, in this experiential daylong Miranda Macpherson will hold space for all that we are navigating both personally and collectively, and offer insights and practices to help us harness the intensity of our times into the path.

Lynn Marie Lumiere, MFT, SEP ~ Integrating Nonduality and Somatic Trauma Healing

Sunday, November 16, 2025 @ 9:00am-12:00pm (Pacific Time)

Trauma healing and nondual awakening come together in the present moment, the eternal now. The ability to be present here and now is essential for awakening to our deeper Nature and embodying that in our lives. It is also necessary for healing the effects of traumatic stress. However, trauma profoundly disrupts this ability, making it difficult to fully inhabit the present moment.

When it comes to trauma, skillful means are needed to regulate the nervous system and expand our window of tolerance, so we are more able to both rest in Being and be present with our human wounding. Trauma healing is primarily a somatic process and is an opportunity for experiencing embodied Presence.

Lynn Marie Lumiere is a seasoned psychotherapist, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, spiritual mentor, and author. She offers a rare blend of embodied spiritual wisdom with a skilled therapeutic approach that facilitates healing of psychological trauma/wounding and the embodiment of awakening.

Susanne Marie ~ Turning Toward Wholeness

Sunday, November 23, 2025 @ 9:00am-11:00am (Pacific Time)

At any given moment, we can tune into one of two streams. One arises from the natural wholeness of our being: open, still, and complete. The other is formed by the mind’s projections onto Reality, creating a sense of separation and confusion. This mental stream veils what is already whole and true.

In this meeting, we will explore how to rest in the stream of wholeness, learning to recognize and gently turn our attention away from the mind’s content. Through shared inquiry and practice, we’ll deepen our capacity to abide in what is real, whole, and ever-present.

Susanne Marie offers integrated teachings in support of freedom, and the celebration of our common essence of love and unity with all life. Her teaching style is heart-centered and practical, whose focus is on supporting you in your unique awakening journey.
