Individual Mentoring
I work with clients via Skype and Zoom.
Clients often come to me suffering from a lack of self-trust, self-love, and self-worth. Opening together in fundamental consciousness begins the process of restoring trust. We experience wholeness pervading both of us. It is the sacred nature of our connection that allows you to experience love disentangled from confusion, shame, and fear. In this intimate space, you can gently meet and gradually release the bindings that separate you from your authentic self. Over time, as we sit together, we attune more and more deeply to fundamental consciousness, which allows unresolved issues from your life to be recognized, experienced, and released. In this process, you come to realize the essential goodness of your true nature. Joy, steadiness, and an ease of being spontaneously emerge.
Clients tell me: I offer an open, generous heart; I provide warmth, safety and steadiness; I listen deeply; I track intricate threads of meaning; I express a loving, grounded and wise presence; and I hold and reflect back to them a clear, palpable sense of their own wholeness.

Realization Process in Nature Workshops
Old growth “cathedral” forests in the Pacific Northwest are ancient, tall, complex, unspoiled, quiet and beautiful. They have the power to take your breath away, to evoke wonder and gratitude, and to deepen your connection to life and mystery. In this workshop near Portland, Oregon we will open into the space pervading us and the rich environment of old growth forests. Meandering through the forest, we will explore and experience the core teachings of Realization Process. Read More.
Healing Ground Teacher Certification Training: The Spiritual Psychotherapy Aspect of the Realization Process
In person! Spring, 2022
This training teaches the main Realization Process practices for embodied nondual awakening, and their application to personal maturity and psychological healing. Specific practices are taught for listening and responding to another person as fundamental consciousness, for subtle reading of constrictions and openness in one’s own and another person’s body, and for recognizing and releasing emotional wounds and trauma-based constrictions from the body. The Realization Process practices can help people access a dimension of themselves that has never been injured, that is deeper and more subtle than even the most strongly held negative beliefs, depression and anxiety. They also develop sensory and emotional resilience, grounding, self-possession, and self-acceptance. They can help sensitive people live more comfortably in the world.
Format: The training is taught in two five-day parts. For Part One, you have a choice among the senior Realization Process teachers listed below. Part Two is taught by Judith Blackstone. Registration is limited to thirty people (ten in each Part One group).

Descriptions of the Realization Process Teacher Trainings
Meditation
The main Realization Process practices for embodied nondual awakening, as well as specific practices for cultivating the subtlety, openness, luminosity and steadiness of nondual realization. This training includes sitting, standing and walking meditations and practices for relaxation, concentration, vitality, subtle perception and the deepening of our innate capacities for love and mental clarity. Absorption and subtle breath and energy practices will be taught for opening the subtle core of the body and for realizing oneself more completely as the pervasive expanse of fundamental consciousness. Participants will learn how to perceive and help people overcome individual obstacles to nondual realization, and how to accelerate results in meditation practice for both beginning and advanced practitioners.
Certification: Realization Process Meditation Teacher
Schedule: In-person two-module format in Spring, 2023.
Embodiment
The main Realization Process practices for embodied nondual awakening, as well as specific embodiment and gentle movement practices for cultivating internal unity, balance, fluidity, presence and subtle energy within the body. As the embodiment of fundamental consciousness, we become both empty and present at the same time. We know ourselves as the integration of awareness, emotion and physical sensation. We perceive, understand, touch, move, and express ourselves with the whole breadth of our being. Participants will learn how to recognize and help people resolve chronic imbalances and tensions in the body that limit their embodiment and realization of fundamental consciousness.
