The Fullness of the Ground: Practices for Embodied Nondual Realization
Four Mondays: February 24, March 3, 10, 17, 1:00-3:00 PM Eastern
This series is full. Please contact us to be put on a waiting list.
With Judith Blackstone
Online, Via Zoom
Judith will teach the practices from her latest book, The Fullness of the Ground, for experiencing the wholeness, steadiness, depth, fluidity, subtlety and permeability of nondual realization, the realization of your own nature as fundamental consciousness. She will teach ways to stabilize as fundamental consciousness in your daily life. As taught in the Realization Process, nondual realization has a profound effect on your senses, your breath, your experience of your own authentic existence, your relationships, and your ability to love. You mature as an individual as you transcend your individuality to experience oneness with everyone and everything around you. You are both empty and present, at the same time.
Small group format. Judith will work individually, in front of the group, with anyone who wants assistance with the practices. Classes are recorded and available to participants.
Everyone is welcome!

Realization Process: an Embodied Approach to Personal Healing and Nondual Awakening
With Judith Blackstone
Presented by East-West Books
Online
Saturday, May 3, 2:00-4:00 PM Eastern
Judith will teach the main practices of the Realization Process, a unique series of meditative practices for embodied personal and relational healing, and nondual spiritual awakening. These gentle attunement practices can help you feel both more present and more receptive within your whole body. They cultivate wholeness, sensory and emotional resilience, grounding, authenticity, and the ability to connect deeply with others without loss of inward contact with yourself. They uncover a subtle, undivided dimension of fundamental consciousness, pervading our body and our environment as a unity. Judith will also discuss how these practices can contribute to healing from trauma, to feeling more balanced and relaxed, and to helping sensitive people live more comfortably in the world. Judith is the founder of the Realization Process.
Cost – $40 To Register

All of the Realization Process practices facilitate your realization of nonduality – the uncovering of your own nature as undivided, fundamental consciousness, pervading your body and environment as a whole.
Small group format, so there is time for individual attention, and brief (optional) individual sessions with Judith in front of the group.

With Judith Blackstone
In Person. A Residential Retreat at Omega Institute in Rhinebeck, NY
September 21-26, 2025
With Judith’s careful guidance, the Realization Process practices can help you uncover the undivided, fundamental ground of your being, and experience its profound effect on your senses, breath, vitality and authenticity, your capacity for understanding, love and pleasure, and your oneness with other living beings. You will also learn how to apply these subtle attunement practices to help heal yourself from the effects of trauma, and to release chronic patterns of pain, imbalance and tension from your body. This is an opportunity to practice all aspects of the Realization Process: meditation, embodiment/movement, the relational attunement practices, and the Healing Ground trauma release work.
This workshop will provide a safe space to go deeply into the integrated process of psychological healing and nondual spiritual awakening. However, it is not appropriate for someone who is currently in crisis, or working with severe, unresolved trauma.

Awaken into the Wild Heart of Reality: A Deepening Retreat
With Roma Hammel, PhD
Los Altos Hills, California – in Person!
July 21-25, 2025
Do you seek to realize the nonduality of your innate nature? Do you long to feel the utter truth of it throughout your whole body?
Weaving Realization Process and Taoist practices with movement, touch, sound, art, dialogue, and nature, we unbind the senses, free the mind, and release subtle fragmentations within our own Being and between us and our environment. Implicit in this extraordinary process is a cosmological kind of wild freedom. Thoughts, sensations, and perceptions occur as a unity. Nourished by nature and nurtured by the kindness of others, our hearts become wild and fierce, our bodies luminous and self-aware, our minds keen and clear. This retreat is for experienced RP meditators who can sustain consciousness of the unified field for 90+ minutes. It is not focused on psychological work but instead on deepening attunement to the unified relational field of consciousness pervading us as and our environment.
