Motherhood has many meanings to each of us from "mother out there" to the "mother within" regardless of gender, and whether we have birthed children or not. Often, it is a relationship that spans, plunges and rises through love, compassion, complexity and hardship. As we commemorate Mother's Day, let us take a loving and healing journey back to us through ...

“To be in contact internally with our body is, at the same time, to be open to our environment. Everywhere we are in contact with ourselves within our body, we are alive and responsive to the world around us. This produces a lived experience of continuity and connection with everything and everyone we encounter.” -Judith Blackstone Through a cultivation of ...

Many spiritual traditions speak about a balance of mind, body, and spirit. But let's face it - today's culture is all mind, mind, mind. It feels like we've lost connection to something deep: our inner guiding voice, the "North" point in the compass of our soul - in a word, the intuition. Join mindfulness teacher Nate Macanian for An Intuition ...
Spiritual development is often seen as a solitary affair. Yet we live in community. When we practice together, we open up and focus on the space between us. We will practice a Sufi form of awakening called Sohbet, where we come together and slow down—to what integral teacher Terry Patten calls “super slow motion” — where we notice each sensation, ...

As 9s there can often be a tendency to easily abandon one’s own primary agenda, focus, and direction in favor of secondary agendas for others that don’t hold as much meaning, weight, or impact for what we uniquely want. This next session is tailored to looking at a weekly practice that can help us stay on target with our own ...

“Every bad feeling is potential energy toward the right way of being if you give it space to move toward its rightness.” So said Eugene Gendlin, the originator of the Focusing practice. And given the current circumstances: pandemic, racial tensions, political unrest, just to name a few, it’s likely that you’re experiencing some so-called “bad feelings” and wish that things ...
"Spiritual bypassing," a term that was coined by psychotherapist John Welwood, means a "tendency to use spiritual ideas and practices to sidestep or avoid facing unresolved emotional issues, psychological wounds, and unfinished developmental tasks." In such a similar fashion, friends, let us explore if and how we may be falling into "integral bypassing." Meet Your Practice Leader Nomali Perera, MA, ...

The Ladder doesn’t go anywhere. The race isn’t real. The things we have are not as important as the grooves we carve. Deep down, we know this. Yet, we do nothing. We’re called to something more in our life, yet we’re anchored to the life we have. Most of us would prefer to have a calling, but we’re unwilling to ...
Although our capacity for deeper connections actually increases with self-development, many of us have found that as we progress on our journey of growth that the friendships we once enjoyed no longer nourish us in the same way. Wouldn’t it be nice to develop friendships with women who share your values of waking up, growing up, cleaning up and showing ...
Feelings are the communication of life. They make us feel alive. When feelings can communicate their messages, we can act accordingly, but we lose their wisdom when they are blocked and suppressed. In the interactive Unity Within practice, we let feelings speak in the first person to distill their data to us using the Big Mind Method. In each session ...
We all have unconscious bias - those blindspots that cloud our judgment, robbing us of our power. We all experience discomfort hearing that we have biases that prevent us from living our potential. In spite of everything, self-awareness is a definite possibility and the only way to reclaim our destiny. Imagine what can be different when you become more skilled ...

Ken Wilber once said, “It is lonely at the top”. By "top," he meant the higher reaches of the developmental stages where there are fewer and fewer self-identified integral folks...like us! He encouraged embracing this evolutionary space with both pride and humility. Let’s face it…the integral community is tiny. We aren’t always surrounded by a like-minded and like-hearted integral community ...
Isn't tea an amazing thing? In times of joy, tea reminds us of what's worth celebrating. In times of sorrow, tea can help us see the path to wholeness. Sipping this wonderful plant nourishes the innate part of us that's gentle, flowing, and easy. It's almost impossible to sit peacefully with a cup of hot tea and get stuck thinking ...
How does your core fear of being unworthy of being loved or your core desire to to be loved show up in your daily experience?
