Description
This presentation will be both experiential and didactic. Judith will teach the two main Realization Process practices for inhabiting one’s body and attuning to a subtle ground of consciousness pervading one’s body and environment as a unity. She will explain how these practices can be applied to helping our clients feel safe and steady within themselves and, at the same time, deeply connected with others even in the midst of our present chaotic and divisive times.
When we live within our body we have a tangible experience of our own existence, the potency of our aliveness. We uncover the actual feel of our love, intelligence, sexuality and personal power within our body.
When we attune to unified consciousness pervading our body and environment, we have a tangible experience of our essential oneness with other people. This can give us the safety to explore our differences with other people, and the courage to appreciate our own differentness, our own uniqueness, without feeling estranged from other people. We can more easily respect and support each other’s differences when we know (and feel) that they emerge from a foundation of basic human kinship. Inhabiting our body and attuning to unified consciousness can give us a sense of belonging, within our own body, and within the world.
Unified consciousness is spiritual only in the sense that it is subtle. As a subtle attunement to ourselves, it is readily available to anyone who wants to experience it. It is a resource within ourselves that has never been injured, that is unbreakable and whole. Accessing it can help counter the discouragement and despair that many of our clients feel in their healing process. As a deep level of contact with ourselves and our surroundings, it can contribute to healing the dissociation, fragmentation and the many forms of bodily defense and dysregulation that often result from trauma.
Presenter Information
Judith Blackstone, PhD is the founder of the Realization Process, a method of embodied psychological and relational healing and nondual spiritual awakening. Her approach differs from many other nonduality teachers in that she views the realization of self-other oneness as maturing and enriching our experience of our individual existence, rather than eradicating it. Judith teaches workshops and teacher certification trainings world-wide and online. There are now many hundreds of Realization Process teachers throughout the world. She was a psychotherapist in private practice for thirty-five years and before that, a professional dancer. The Realization Process includes practices for stabilizing in nondual realization, as well as a method of recovering from trauma called Healing Ground, a method of embodied movement called Stillness Moving and a method of relational healing called Empathic Ground. She is the author of seven books, including Trauma and the Unbound Body: the Healing Power of Fundamental Consciousness; The Empathic Ground: Intersubjectivity and Nonduality in the Psychotherapeutic Process; The Intimate Life; and Belonging Here. Her latest book is The Fullness of the Ground: A Guide to Embodied Spiritual Awakening. www.realizationprocess.org.
