Awakening to Spirit
A long distance apprenticeship program through the
Toltec Center Of Creative Intent
"The deep understanding that everything we know is a false reflection of the Truth is the fire that keeps us on the path toward truly BEING the Mystery that stands at the core of our being. Without commitment to questioning what is real, the illusion soon begins to creep in yet again, pacifying us with its boring substitutes of drama, stimulation, and knowledge. These substitutes hook our attention and keep us from standing in the EXPERIENCE of The Great Mystery that is our birthright."
Join us for this exciting and inspiring program. It will introduce you to the basics of Toltec Wisdom:
Understanding the necessity of change
and how to deal with it.
Uncovering your unconscious beliefs
and the ways they limit your life.
Transforming those beliefs by taking
actions in your life that serve your highest purpose.
Reclaiming lost energy from your past
and applying it to your awakening.
Integrating these practices into to
your life through ceremony and practical application.
The program includes the following:
- The Four Elements of Change by Heather Ash
- The Four Elements of Change Companion CD by Heather Ash
- The Handbook of Awareness and Intent by Raven Smith
- The Recapitulation Workbook by Raven Smith
- Four facilitated one hour conference calls each month. These calls will consist of lectures, tips on working with the materials, and time for questions and answers.
The program is broken into four sections.
The first section is based on Heather Ash’s book The Four Elements Of Change.
When we step onto a spiritual path we do so because we are searching for change. We are looking for a transformation of our lives because we know beyond a doubt that there must me something more to existence than what we have experienced to date and we want to know what it is. This book, CD, and phone sessions will deal with how to handle that change gracefully from a place of centeredness and openness, rather than a place of fear and contraction. The phone sessions for this section will be facilitated by Heather Ash.
The second section is based on The Handbook of Awareness and Intent by Raven Smith. The first tool we need on the path of awakening to our true selves is awareness. Without being aware that you are suffering there is never an end to the suffering. We have to be willing to tell the about how we are limiting ourselves before we can stop doing it. Next we have to hone our Intent to make a different choice than the one that has led to our limitation. Intent is the alignment of our feelings and thoughts with our energy to manifest choice and freedom from our unconscious belief system. This workbook is a complete methodology for uncovering your unconscious belies and learning how to set intents that serve you, rather than limit you. Phone sessions are facilitated by Raven Smith.
The third section will be based on The Recapitulation Workbook by Raven Smith.
As mentioned above a big part of intent is rounding up your energy and putting it behind what you want to manifest. Recapitulation is a Toltec tool that is specifically designed to reclaim the energy you have trapped in the past. All our lives our energy has been leaking out into our attachments to the beliefs, events, and people we have interacted with. Everywhere we have judged ourselves, felt victimized, or acted unconsciously in any way based on our beliefs we have lost energy. Through the practice of recapitulation we can reclaim that energy, freeing it up and bringing it into the present to be used to manifest the intents that will serve us the best. Phone sessions facilitated by a Circle Guide from the Toltec Center of Creative Intent.
The fourth section is about Ceremony
and Integration.
During these phone sessions we will discuss how to create ceremonies to help you stay grounded and focused. We will also work with ceremonies to mark transitions in your life and help you set stronger intents for the future. The rest of this section will be a time for questions and answers about how the process of this apprenticeship is going for you. It will be a time to get answers and integrate what you are learning. We will work in this section to make the tools meaningful to you personally and answer questions about the process.
Integration for the recovery community
This is a special section open to those who are in recovery. Facilitated by Jeniffer Menks this section will focus on integrating what you are learning in this program with the process of your recovery. Again, ceremony will be discussed by Jeniffer and she will answer questions specifically around those challenges faced by those in recovery.
