Foundational Courses

Essential courses for providing you with the context + the tools to do effective one-on-one and group work with us. All pre-recorded courses are $75 USD and come with extensive video, audio and written content.

 

The Art of Inner Communication
An Intuitive Skills Practicum

Generally, we recommend that anyone interested in doing ongoing group or one-on-one work with us take this six-session course. It lays our approach to developing the fundamental skills of intuitive inquiry - the ability to see, hear and feel the wisdom-information emanating from true nature - as well as how to enter into healing and repartive dialogue with parts (facets of self) that have taken on conditioned adaptive strategies as a substitute for being connected with the Self and its many essential qualities.

Strong Knowing
The Beginning, Middle & End

For new folks who don’t have significant experience in presence/mindful awareness practice, we recommend taking this ten session course. The material is designed to awaken the heart-vow to know our inner experience strongly, clearly and continually throughout all states and situations. To awaken the commitment to seeing the mundane realities of life as path. To root us firmly in the observation of everyday mind and conduct as the absolute core of the path to liberation. There is no other place where freedom can actually occur!

The Body Unwinds
A Non-Directed Movement Intensive

For folks looking to develop a core understanding of somatic movement, fascial unwinding and the nervous system. This course is particularly helpful for practitioners working with significant emotional or physical activation, as well as those that find themselves getting habitually stuck in dissociative/freeze states in meditation and/or daily life. Discover “living stillness” - a stillness that is not the result of a control state enacted by a manager part, and that is also not fundamentally “separate” from physical and energetic movement.

Sessions

One-on-one work with Megan & Chris

In addition to our group work, both of us do extensive one-on-one psychospiritual counseling work that allows people to receive specific, confidential and intuitive feedback about any aspect of their inner process.

 
The inner guidance comes in a variety of forms. Sometimes as a whisper like sound, sometimes as a vision, sometimes as an angel. There can be a variety of manifestations for the inner guidance to come. During one realization, the inner guidance appeared as a jeweled diamond, or as an entity of diamonds. And it felt like ‘this is the inner guide’, but made of diamonds. These diamonds are diamonds of light. Each diamond provides for humans a capacity of knowledge, of experiential knowledge.

So, the knowledge was not coming just as intuition, not just analytical, not just as practical, but it involved all of them, and it involved precise knowledge. Each diamond provides the precise knowledge of its particular domain of essence and it helps to articulate it.
— Faisal Muqaddam
We must simply start with accepting ourselves. Sitting brings us back to actually who and where we are. This can be very painful. Self-acceptance is the hardest thing to do. If we can’t accept ourselves, we are living in ignorance, this darkest night. We may still be awake, but we don’t know where we are. We cannot see. The mind has no light.

Practice is this candle in our very darkest room.
