Is there a subtle dimension of ourselves that pervades our thoughts, emotions, and sensations? Through inhabiting the internal space of our body, can we experience this dimension as our own undivided nature and the basis for our unity with our environment?
The Realization Process by Judith Blackstone is a series of powerful but gentle, precise, attunements to contact this subtle dimension — called fundamental consciousness. It includes individual and relational practices, movement, and an innovative approach to emotional healing. It focuses on direct experience and fosters maturity that directly benefits everyday situations.
In this series, we will explore how fundamental consciousness can bring clarity and depth to how we encounter ourselves and others. We will have the opportunity to allow this depth of contact to uncover and transform knots that may arise within ourselves and between us. No prior experience in the Realization Process is needed. Experience in meditation or somatics may be helpful but isn't required.
Through the practices, conversations, and movement, we will go on a journey to collectively ask: what can arise when we relate from the ground of our being?
Week 1: Opening We meet each other and introduce the main principles of the Realization Process (RP).
Week 2: The Relational Field We bring in relational practices, exploring fundamental consciousness in pairs and collectively.
Week 3: Deepening Contact We deepen contact in the group and navigate whatever arises together.
Week 4: Closing and Integration We reflect on the journey and how we might allow it to transform our daily lives.
Mikael Ibrahim is a somatic practitioner deeply interested in how insight can break out of the workshop room and flow into real life. His voyage of recovery from burnout and chronic pain has led him to become a student of his own body as a doorway to healing and growth. He is trained as a Realization Process teacher and a Pantarei Approach practitioner.
