    Content vs. Process: the Key to Durable Transformation

    “Content” are the emotions, stories, beliefs, and challenges that come up in therapy and ceremony. “Process” are the tools by which we can transmute our content into love and peace. While the felt-sense of a new way of being with your content is the compass, the process is the map on how to get there.

    The Human Experience: the Mind, Body, and Spirit

    The human experience consists of three layers: the mind, body, and spirit. The mind is a sharp tool. The body experiences emotions and projects intuition. The spirit is the ever-present, incorporeal knowing that is Love.

    The Pursuit of Wholeness

    Wholeness is more than a state of being. It is a practice of persistently feeling truly and deeply. It stems from a value of consistently honoring one’s Self, allowing the beingness of life to exist, and surrendering pain before it becomes suffering.
