Embarking on a path to embrace and express the fullness of your being, both in individual experience and in relation to others, can be profoundly transformative. As a nondual teacher and mentor, I invite you to journey where powerful practices reveal the radiance of your true nature and dissolve obstacles to living joyously. Rooted in the inherent nondual wisdom of fundamental consciousness, I share the route I’ve traveled. A compassionate physician led me into deep meditative states following a life-altering spinal injury. Amid a mid-life crisis, a sage Taoist revealed the art of transmuting suffering into peace. With the guidance of Judith Blackstone, visionary founder of the Realization Process, I released unresolved traumas, allowing me to live within my whole body—substantive and secure, open and responsive to the world around me. With gratitude to my mentors, I invite you to awaken, embody your true self, and live joyously.​ Read more

The Realization Process revolutionized my psychotherapy practice and enlivened my spiritual practices. Ever since my spirited exploration of Self during my early twenties, I knew that psychotherapy and meditation go hand in hand as tools of transformational change. After earning a Master’s degree in Social Work from the University of Michigan, I incorporated the teaching of meditation into psychodynamic therapy, a specialty in trauma recovery techniques and somatic release.

Primary assistant teacher for online certification trainings. Teaches the Summer online certification trainings.

The Realization Process guides each of us to be our own enlightenment guru. I don’t claim to be enlightened or a guru, but I am stable in my embodied experience of fundamental consciousness. I live and breathe in the subtle core of my body. My internal experience is settled within and as an unwavering pervasive unified spacious stillness. This ongoing feeling of me awake and conscious everywhere inside my body is because of Realization Process, a simple, elegant, clearly discernable, well-studied, and brilliantly practical method to reliably awaken and stabilize subtle nondual experience of embodied wholeness of being.  Read more

Teaches Realization Process Therapy training, and Assistant teacher for online certification trainings.

I have run a private practice as a Massage Therapist and Bodyworker in Edinburgh since 1990. I began training as a dancer, until a period of illness turned my attention to my own healing journey and from there to studying Therapeutic Massage, Counseling and Psychotherapy (DTM, DHTC). My focus has been to enable people to come into their bodies, creating space for healing. When I met Judith in 2011 I felt immediately I had found an approach that made sense on every level of my being. I then trained in all three aspects of the Realization Process. The outcomes for my clients and myself have been profound. It has brought greater depth and precision to my Bodywork, and a language that facilitates deep release and integration. I offer private sessions in the Embodiment, Psycho-therapeutic and Meditation aspects of the Realization Process. It is such a privilege to see people becoming more their own person, disentangled from the past. This work is both gentle and profound, it inspires me continuously on my ongoing personal journey and in my support of others. I run twice weekly classes in the Realization Process, with wonderful committed people who teach me as much as I teach them!

Assistant Teacher for online certification trainings.
 
I specialize in coaching clients in Realization Process to find the part of themselves that is already well and at ease. Feeling into our own radiant ground of being (fundamental consciousness, Buddha nature, divine ground, etc) can help us deepen our sense of expansive consciousness and aliveness, in addition to achieving resolution of emotional holding patterns and energy blocks – whether due to trauma or self-limiting beliefs. My goal is to facilitate noticeable shifts in well-being from our very first session.  A key principle from Realization Process that I follow closely is that, since each constriction in the mind-body system was formed along a specific pathway, this very same pathway can be used to release it. This means that the solution to many presenting problems is already “in the room,” and thus it is possible to experience a noticeable shift in well-being from the very start of our work together.

Seattle, Washington

Assistant Teacher for Online Certification Trainings

Studying with Judith since 2010, I have experienced a deep connection with myself that has wholly transformed my life. I teach the Meditation, Embodiment and Spiritual Psychotherapy aspects of the Realization Process to help people experience their own embodiment as a foundation for resilient engagement with the world around them. I offer private sessions and have been able to help clients experience healing and trauma repair as well as greater internal coherence and the cultivation of Joy.

My clients say about my work: “Sono appeared in my life at just the right moment. She is down-to-earth, kind, good-humored and tranquil. I’ve meditated for 30 years and explored many healing modalities in depth.  Sono guided me to a place I’ve never been, where I can connect to the depth of my self with the subtle breath to work internally and also connect my deepest self with the world beyond me in a balanced flow.  I’ve seen remarkable changes in just one session. She facilitated my energetic release of a chronically troublesome shoulder. Practicing on my own at the grocery store, I’ve found that I am more present. Practicing while in a group, I have increased comfort and ability singing. I look forward to working with Sono more and integrating this profound work.” -Anne A. And: “I had the good fortune to work with Sono over a period of a few months and in that brief time I dropped into a depth of self-connection that I had never before accessed in years of therapeutic engagement. I attribute this directly to Sono’s grounded, intuitive and imaginative embodiment of the Realization Process work. She listens from a luminous, playful and attentive heart allowing the process to unfold organically in the spirit of collaboration and curiosity. Sono is for me an insightful, warm and lucid guide whose recognition of our fundamental equality permeated every aspect of our engagement. I recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone interested in embodying a deeper intimacy with the self and with the world.” -Sayde P.

Assistant Teacher for Online Certification Trainings

I am deeply committed to living my life from the ground of being, embodying the alive stillness that we are, while deeply embracing being human.  In my work with others, it is my intention to open up a space where intimate contact and healing arise naturally.  Radical transformation and healing are possible.  My classes and sessions are an invitation to anchor ourselves in the stillness of consciousness, find healing in ourselves and deeply embrace and enjoy our humanness.  I am a nondual meditation, embodiment and yoga teacher living in Switzerland in the countryside with my husband, our two girls and pets.  Since my twenties I have devoted myself to meditation and inner spiritual work and explored realms of consciousness, embodiment and psychology.  I am fascinated by the Realization Process as a direct, profound and powerful path to the realization of fundamental consciousness and the unfolding of our full human potential.  The Realization Process supports me in becoming more and more connected to the richness of my being in my everyday life and in offering intimate contact and a loving presence to myself and other beings.

In private sessions (in English and German), I support people to deeply anchor in the depth of their being, and recognize and release limiting patterns and traumas from mind and body in order to experience their wholeness as well as the richness and joy of being.  I am also happy to offer support in integrating spiritual awakening into everyday life.

Realization Process has revolutionized my psychotherapy practice, and transformed my spiritual path. After 30 years of learning skillful and compassionate therapy techniques, I trained with Judith Blackstone. Judith taught me with exquisite precision how to be in Core to Core contact with my clients, and sit in the information rich ground of being. Without moving away from myself, without leaving my Core, I’ve learned that all I need to know, to feel, or to sense is available in the ground that unifies everything. This process leaves room for all the useful therapy techniques I learned previously, but now they go deeper. Post traumatic Stress becomes Post traumatic Growth. Disentangling into Wholeness reveals the Beauty of being human; extraordinary and ordinary at the same time.

Teaches part one of the in-person certification trainings.

A spiritual mentor, I recognized long ago that immersion in nature reveals the sacred aliveness of all life. When I first trekked into the wilderness decades ago, I was still entangled in the confusing swirl of my childhood. Fueled by an undeniable call to love my life, I embarked on vision quests into old growth forests. Attuning to the visible and invisible web of life, I discovered a profound stillness, the quiet vibrancy of my true nature. Three decades after awakening, I realized my body is a portal into that sacred aliveness. Read more

The Realization Process is by far the most practical, efficient and effective change process I’ve ever experienced. It has transformed my life. I gratefully share this revolutionary process with those who wish to replace stress with calm and peace, dissolve conditioned behaviors, heal trauma, find joyful intimacy, discover loving power, and awaken their true nature.I help you build a sense of safety, discover resilience and confidence, and let go of self-harming beliefs. My students say:Robert is an extraordinary guide, who accurately discerns my state and coaches me in optimal practices to stabilize my awareness. He is a compassionate and skillful teacher, who has helped me develop tools to reliably access fundamental consciousness – enormously empowering!  Robert creates a lovely, warm heart space: empathetic, very encouraging, deep listening. He tailors sessions to my needs, interests, questions and self-observations. He is very insightful and exudes a deep understanding and love of this work. 

I have worked in for-profit and non-profit settings and taught in CIIS’ Transformative Leadership MA Program. I earned an MBA in organizational effectiveness and a PhD in collaborative creativity and transpersonal psychology.I teach individuals and groups via videoconferencing or, in the Seattle area, in person.

I have been teaching the Realization Process meditation class in New York City once a week on Mondays from 7-8:15pm for the last seven years. I also use Realization Process indirectly to help my students do T’ai Chi Chih and Qigong.
Lately for me, the biggest insights I have had about Realization Process have come from actually teaching it on a regular basis. The “Space” that I so dutifully would find during my own exploration, is so much more available now that I teach others. At first, I struggled with that impulse to go outside myself. I felt I was stuck, I just wouldn’t budge. Teaching has given me the opportunity to let the Space un-fold. With this, the other people show up more, to me. This was such a huge revelation; and feels evolutionary because I do not have to work so hard.

My active mind can rest and with that comes less projection on my part; so I have more clarity; with that, comes peace.

I started studying martial arts and meditation in the early 90’s and eventually added psychotherapeutic inquiry into the mix. I benefited from many great teachers, peers, therapists and mentors along the way, but when I encountered Judith’s Realization Process, I encountered a path to a more subtle and yet embodied sense of self than I had previously realized was possible. I utilize RP healing ground work and meditation along with Tai Chi and Loving-Kindness Meditation for my own daily practice and for healing and enquiry with many clients. In the clinical realm, working as a licensed Psychologist-Masters in the state of Vermont, I have always found RP techniques especially valuable in healing from trauma, both single incident and complex, and for promoting subtle exploration of our moment to moment experience. In the realm of personal practice for health and wholeness I like to combine RP with non-judgmental group relatedness work (practicing speaking and listening as our unique selves from non-dual presence in a group), and with all of the many techniques I have learned through the years from Focusing to dream interpretation, that help us hone in on our own leading edge of inquiry and development.

It is a joy to work with those to whom Realization Process calls. Please visit me at ezramaurer.com or call 802-735-7138 for a consultation.

I met Judith Blackstone at an Esalen retreat, and her work filled a gap in my soul. For the first time in my life, I was able to be fully present in my whole body. I thought I’d been present all along, but this was beyond what I’d known before. Through Judith’s work, I’ve been able to create such deep connection to my Self that now I never lose the thread of me, even when I’m with other people. In the past I was consumed by fear, and now the realization process has allowed me to show up for myself and my clients with true compassion, presence, understanding and deep listening. I guide people to feel, know and experience the part of themselves that has always been whole and complete – the Self that has never been broken or wounded. I’m a fully certified realization process teacher, a Certified clinical hypnotherapist, a certified life coach, and an ordained spiritual clairvoyant minister. The purpose of my work is to help others to know themselves intimately, as Spirit in a body. I work one-on-one with people, guiding them through deeply transformative presence processes, and I also teach group classes in the Realization Process.

I am especially drawn to working with beginning meditators. I use readings, music, questions, and guided Realization Process exercises. My hope is to help students free themselves from the past and savor their present moment eternal inner radiance, as well as feel it permeating everywhere. Clients feel more peace, more connection, and more at home. I am also a certified Interfaith Spiritual Director (One Spirit Interfaith Seminary) and Executive Coach.

I offer private sessions, multi-week courses, and retreats in The Realization Process, virtually online and in-person. As a teacher and a practitioner The Realization Process has offered me a clear and powerful way to seamlessly integrate awakening, healing, and embodiment both within the practice of The Realization Process, as well as offering a wonderful, open bridge and meeting point for multiple paths and modalities of being. In my work with students, we are able to go wherever is needed to disentangle and make deep contact with fundamental consciousness, ground of being, and nourishing contact with our self and all of our foundational capacities. In this spirit I take an approach of integral dharma that includes waking up, cleaning up, growing up, and showing up.

Since I was 16 years old, I’ve had a deep hunger to become and feel real, be comfortable in my own skin, and be joyful in my own being. Over the last 18 years, I have intensively explored the worlds of personal development and spirituality. I learned how to still my overactive thinking mind through thousands of hours of Mindfulness and Vipassana meditations, how to create internal and external change through some of the world’s best coaching trainings, and how to be successful in business and lifestyle design through a combination of experimentation and great mentors. However, until I found the Realization Process, something crucial was always missing. After my first Realization Process retreat with Judith Blackstone, I knew in my bones that I had finally found a teacher and method that could guide me all the way home to myself (and reveal why I wasn’t already). To this day, I have never found anything close to the brilliance, directness, and potency of the Realization Process. Through this work, I’ve been able to uncover and reclaim my authentic self, heal from childhood traumas, experience life with deeper intimacy, and uncover the innate joy in my being I somehow always knew was hidden inside me.

As a teacher, I offer workshops, series, and courses in the Realization Process. I’m also offering groups and classes specifically for men interested in doing this work alongside other men. In my one-on-one work, I facilitate deep and lasting transformations by combining the Realization Process with my skills as a Professional Life & Leadership Coach. I invite you on an extraordinary journey, home to yourself. If you feel a resonance to work with me, I’m happy to be your guide.

I work in the tech industry, coach, and serve as a Realization Process Teacher.  In personal life, I devote myself to my family, alongside a journey committed to personal and spiritual healing. The Realization Process has helped me seamlessly weave the threads of my life into an inclusive and harmonious whole – I am dedicated to living life as an embodied being, deeply connected to my humanness and immersed in the shared experience of fundamental consciousness that unites us in oneness. As a Realization Process teacher, I offer gentle and nourishing guidance to help you heal, embody the alive stillness that we are, and thrive in whatever you do. I interlace the embodiment, meditation, spiritual movement and the psychotherapy aspects of the Realization Process. When I started my doctoral program over three decades ago, I aspired to become a Computer Science Professor in academia. Life took me down a different path—one of Engineering Leadership, Executive Coaching, and teaching the Realization Process. In recent years, my work as a coach and teacher has been deeply shaped by my experience in leadership roles and my work with leaders striving for higher levels of success and fulfillment. I have been drawn to study the enduring impact of stress and anxiety in the corporate world, a phenomenon I term ‘corporate trauma.’ I find myself integrating trauma-informed somatic healing modalities along with the Realization Process in my private work with clients.

I hold a Ph.D. in Computer Science and certifications in various contemporary approaches to growing leaders, strategic thinking, communication methodologies, coaching, somatics, mindfulness, and trauma work. I am also certified as a coach with the International Coaching Federation (ICF).

In the words of Ralph Waldo Emerson, “To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.” Since 2001, my professional path as a psychotherapist has deepened from Bowen Systems Theory to incorporating Somatic Experiencing™ and the Realization Process. Beyond psychology, I am an internationally certified meditation teacher in analytical, compassion, and somatic meditations. 

Approaching each client with a “beginner’s mind,” my practice is enriched by an arsenal of over two decades of frontline healthcare experiences. From emergency rooms and ICUs to prestigious academic university settings, I have navigated diverse and challenging environments. I have encountered myriad expressions of human pain and resilience and was ceaselessly encountering the unknown where fear and courage meet. These experiences sharpened my intuitive skills, making me adept at navigating the intricate human condition from every angle—inside, outside, and in between. This is my specialty. What is required now? 

I stepped out of acute crisis care in 2014 and founded Be Here Now Mindfulness, LLC—a boutique therapeutic practice and training center where I could explore the confluence of spirituality and psychology. My fascination has always been with the unseen, the layers of existence that lie beyond immediate comprehension. The Realization Process has significantly deepened this inquiry, enhancing my embodiment and capacity for trauma recovery. RP, beyond any other modality, has helped me unfurl this spiritual passion, and I now blatantly recognize that it was the missing piece in my own healing. When the therapy hat comes off, catch me reveling with my fun-loving family at music festivals, embodying the free spirit that infuses my work and life.

As an intuitive and empathetic Realization Process teacher, I work with clients who feel overwhelmed, anxious, or stuck. Whether they need to release hidden emotions or disentangle from challenging thoughts, I relate to each individual as a whole person, addressing tension and stress trapped in their heart, mind, and body. In addition to being a Realization Process teacher, I am also an experienced bodyworker, somatic therapist, and clinical hypnotherapist. Therefore, sessions may include talking therapy, bodywork, and guided meditations. It’s important to me that people can arrive in the messiness of their human life without leaving anything out. I invite them to vocalize exactly what’s on their mind and to present themselves as they truly are. I also work with companies to provide regular wellbeing support to their teams, which can lead to enhanced productivity, better decision-making, and improved company morale.

Whether in a private session or a corporate-sponsored session, my clients often report experiencing increased self-confidence, a reduction in stress and burnout, and more clarity and purpose. I seek to help clients find freedom—freedom to be who they are, to be curious, to explore, to grow, and to live more joyously, achieving their full potential. “Louise is a wonderful, kind, and extremely caring person who is outstanding in her profession. I’m so grateful to have her lovely safe space to help navigate through this complex and complicated life we seem to be living.”

I am passionate about living these gentle yet powerful exercises, which is to say, growing in our capacity to meet life directly, with our whole being.  I bring reverence and whole-heartedness to this most precious work: that of contacting our depths, following the most sincere longings of our heart and meeting our most tender vulnerabilities with patience and compassion.  I carefully integrate the Realization Process with other transformative modalities, namely Coherence Therapy, letting your specific needs and the spontaneous wisdom of the moment guide our work. Several years in the nonprofit field working directly with teens and adults in particularly vulnerable life-situations helped me learn what it truly means to meet someone where they are. When I encountered the Realization Process in 2019, I was struggling to recover from a life-altering back injury amidst significant life transitions.  Despite how challenging it was for me to be in my body, I was captivated by RP’s radical invitation.  I find myself continuously amazed by the power of deepening inward-contact. 

As a Realization Process teacher and Coherence Coach, I offer group classes and private sessions to support you in befriending your sensitivity, contacting a felt-sense of your wholeness, and resolving self-limiting patterns from a place of safety and inner-resource.  As you begin to inhabit your body more subtly and fully, a natural deepening and reclamation of your being unfolds.
