Realization Process Retreat: Healing the Five Qualities
With Judith Blackstone
In Person!
This retreat is now full. Please contact us to be put on a waiting list.
At the Stone Chalet in Ann Arbor, Michigan
November 13-17, 2024, Wednesday-Saturday, 10:00-4:30, with a break for lunch, and Sunday, 9:30-12:00
When we uncover fundamental consciousness as the undivided ground of our being, we can also experience the innate qualities of our being within our body. This retreat will focus on healing and deepening your embodiment of the five primary qualities your being: sexuality, power, love, voice and understanding. We will use the Realization Process meditation, embodiment and trauma release practices, along with movement, sound, self-inquiry and group discussion and support to help heal early wounding and enhance both the feel and the function of each of these qualities. As fundamental consciousness, we mature as individuals at the same time as we transcend our individuality to experience oneness with everyone and everything around us. Everyone is welcome!

The Fullness of the Ground: Practices for Embodied Nondual Realization
Four Mondays: February 24, March 3, 10, 17, 1:00-3:00 PM Eastern
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!

Thursday-Sunday, 10:00-4:00, with a break for lunch, and Monday, 10:00-12:00
This retreat is an opportunity for the deep, concentrated practice of all aspects of the Realization Process: meditation, embodiment/movement, relational attunement, cultivating internal balance and fluidity, refining sensory perception and the breath/energy, and releasing trauma-based constrictions from the body, heart and mind.
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.
Everyone is welcome. This retreat is both a comprehensive introduction to the Realization Process, and a chance for advanced practitioners to deepen their realization. Come experience the beauty of spring in Woodstock.

Cultivating Foundation, Uncovering Wholeness
With Jason von Halle
Online, via Zoom
6 Tuesdays, Oct 15th – November 19th, 10:00-11:30am Pacific
As we transition from the activity of summer to the mellowing of autumn, we find ourselves naturally inclined to turn inward, settle deeply and feel more resourced. This series is designed to support you both in experiencing true foundation within your body and in uncovering your innate, unbroken wholeness. Cultivating foundation, we feel more grounded and supported. Uncovering wholeness, we contact profound inner-resource. We will creatively explore a wide variety of Realization Process exercises that help us to feel more settled in our body, more open to the quality of physical sensation, more substantive through our whole being, and much else. This will be a highly experiential series with plenty of opportunities for questions and discussion. Meetings will be recorded and shared with participants.

Cost: $185 (sliding fee available)
Parenting from Wholeness: Making Real Contact
With Marijana Jozic and Margaret Brittingham
Online, via Zoom
Six Tuesdays, Oct 15th – November 19th, 11:00 AM -12:30 PM Pacific
In this 6 week small group, we recognize that nurturing the being-essence of our children and making real being to being contact is the primary job of parenting, and all the other tasks are secondary. Using practices from the Realization Process, we will illuminate and begin to dissolve the barriers to making real contact with our unique children, and we will deepen and refine our access to unchanging/ever-present resources in the body, awakening more love, joy and freedom from which to live and parent. There will be space for sharing in intimate community with other parents, embodied healing and meditative practices from the Realization Process, and support for resolving triggers evoked within the parent-child relationship.
