This Integral Life Experience is only available to the supporting members

In this Integral Life members’ forum we begin each session with an objective topic & move into an internal, 1st person exploration to develop greater insights into our inner wisdom. Through meditation, guided reflection and personal sharing as a group, as well as in smaller breakouts, we explore our unique personal experiences that help us embody the Sage within each of us. We apply an Integral lens to investigate how wisdom evolves across our lifespan both individually and collectively. Join us every 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month.

Phyllis Barrie, a native New Yorker, began her lifelong meditation journey at 16. Her career as an actor and acting teacher highlighted the importance of a multi-perspectival approach in both art and life. This insight, learned through arduous development of perspectives, revealed that true inspiration arises in moments of presence. Transitioning back to education, she immersed herself in developmental language models like Piaget, Maslow, and Gardner, igniting a lasting passion for growth, language, and learning. Obtaining her BA at 40 and MA in Communication Disorders at 42, Phyllis excelled as a clinician, directing a mentorship program for graduate students in a hospital setting. Amidst personal challenges, she discovered renewal through Ken Wilber’s Integral Theory and practices, reigniting her zest for learning. Now, empowered by integral life practices, Phyllis aspires to guide others in their unique journeys towards personal growth and authenticity.

Wheaton Griffin, Ph.D., received his doctorate from United States International University, known for being one of the pioneering schools to offer a graduate degree in humanistic psychology during its inception. He directly studied under Victor Frankl and close associates of Abraham Maslow, Fritz Perls, and Carl Rogers. With a background in Gestalt, Existential, Expressive, and Relationship-based therapies, Wheaton practiced psychotherapy for years, while also assuming leadership roles in diverse fields such as special education, early child education, and organizational transformation. He has been a national consultant for developmentally appropriate practices and expanded his expertise through studies with influential figures like J. Krishnamurti, Ken Wilber, and Susanne Cook-Greuter. Wheaton’s teaching and consulting approach centers around adapting to uncertainty and evolving towards personal growth, aligning with the challenges of our changing world.
