Leçon 1
Defining
Comprehending awareness; physical, emotional, mental, sensory. All of it. Every rock turned. Door opened. Nuance and subtext. Meaning and non-meaning. Metaphor(s) and platitude(s).
Conditioning oneself into this active state is key. Getting to the auto-pilot stage. Not only the musing, gazing reveries, and what-ifs? But the deeper burning big whys. Bring yourself to full circle, where no answers are necessary or significant.
A visceral consciousness. Rooted connection. And unrestrained detachment. To unify the paradoxes within your observations. We set off on our adventure fully equipped.
Leçon 2
Curiosity
This is where it births. From baby to Brahma. To make the unknown known. The koan clicks. The aha moments. The rabbit holes. Spiritual tests and tangents. Satisfying, solitudinous seconds of serene stasis.
Learn what serves you. And how you best serve "it". Cultivating that probing, inquisitive form. Not settling, backing down, or shying away from.
Curiosity of the healthy kind. The growth mode. The nourishment needed. Even if danger and risk lurk.
Assessing the way to go about this. And how to conclude upon the clues that fill your basket.
Leçon 3
Discipline
Be both teacher and student to yourself. As the word disciple indicates. Your aptitude and attitude are heightened daily. The micro changes. Details. Mini-shifts. Repetition. Moving the needle. Getting out of ruts. Doing what may seem boring or trite. Having patience.
These all point toward a more refined discipline. Which builds towering self-reliance. Confidence. Safety.
Leçon 4
Authenticity
Awareness and Authenticity have a symbiotic relationship and enhance each other. Honesty. Sincerity. Integrity. The thrust to be your sharpest. Most receptive. Intuitive. Highest-serving decision maker.
True and unmitigated clarity cuts through the fake, the superficial, the misinformed. The guileful.
Genuine and pure, when you clock all the signals. Define the downloads. Pay attention to the meanings and metaphors. Sit on the throne of your sacredness. You accept yourself. The deepest version.
Greek: "Authentes" = "One acting on one's authority."
Having agency. Being accountable.
We see the magnitude of this supreme theme. Completely aware. The spiritual fitness we must commit to.
The compensation is exponential, limitless, and loving.
Leçon 5
Rewire
Neuroscience. Plasticity. Reconditioning. New routines. At the seat of all this is your astute awareness.
Reprogramming requires a heavy investment in examination. Inner/outer. Analysis. Circumstantial. Hypothetical. Factual. Fantastical. The works.
Personal growth rests on this activity. Results encourage new and regenerative skills.
Rinse and repeat. Change is measurable. Scalable. Triumphant.
Terrifying and Tremendously worthwhile.
Leçon 6
Organizing
Having a system is integral. It keeps things in place and knows where also to direct attention. Providing us with a method by which to not expend extraneous energy. Knowing what to use for our constructs is doing away with the dross and pieces that are stale, harmful, and unfavorable.
We embark on fashioning ourselves into that beautiful work of optimum functioning creativity. Or a state-of-the-art invention. Efficient. Dependable and resourceful.
We explore the ways that unwelcome thoughts barge their way into our psyches and souls and what to do when this happens. How to strengthen the communication within.
To button up the fortress and recalibrate the loose ends.
Leçon 7
Egoless
This session reflects on being able to exercise patience and understand neutrality. Being able to be kind to ourselves whilst also not compensating with too much excessive self-coddling. Finding the middle ground. Having the cognitive openness to see multiple facets of the same dilemma, the same wants and needs. The empathy necessary to not be unbendable and the self-assurance to be resolute toward our most paramount goals.
This mindset is imperative when we hit our hardest blocks and conversely soar to our most spectacular stratospheres.
Leçon 8
Compassion
To completely know oneself, one must also love oneself. With courage. With might. With Willpower. Submission. Compassion. Breathing into your heart. Tending to your body. Listening to your intuitive callings.
Be a caring shepherd to your spirit. Carry it safely through the underground worlds. The deep abysses. The Homeric journeys. Limbos, limp, and lowly moments. Respecting your mission. Your timetable. Your medals. Your scars and failings. Forgiveness. Forgetting the already used up and now useless. Or worse, undermining.
Hold yourself with kindness. Joy and dignity. This leads the way on the path to the divine.
Leçon 9
Breathwork
This part of the course may be the most vital. We are all on individual trails. Yet, this is a collective act that we do daily. Breathe. Many shy away from the "work" part due to a lack of grasping the potent force this basic practice/exercise does for us. Either it sounds oversimplified and too easy to wash away our pain and tilt us toward enlightenment. Or we deep down know, in our soul, how intimidating and difficult it will be to face that part of our most profound selves. Hinduism, Buddhism, Taoism, Sufism, Shamanism, and fitness, athletics, and martial arts all point to this.
Giving birth. Taking your last breath. This is ancient. This is eternal. This is our life force.
Our mind-body connection.
It is the portal by which we travel. Use to move. Shift energy. Take in surprise. Awe. Fear.
Regulate. Traumatize. Stabilize.
This tool. This gift. This is our shared superpower. Sitting right under our noses.
The peaceful infant's diaphragm rises and lowers. The thread-worn adult who might be stuck in the upper chest.
What we can learn is we all have an access route back toward our paradise. Our perfection. Our limitlessness.
Our crystalline oneness.
Mindfulness and somatic healing. To activate absolute awareness.
We submerge and melt into this magnificence.
Where we need no books. Classes. Writing instruments nor videos.
It is everything we all need to exist in, that can situate itself in the floating ether.
Work... toward effortlessness.
Leçon 10
Expansive Fearlessness
Here we lean into our most daunting apprehensions. We take the bull by the horns. Jump in with both feet.
This section is all about trusting in the way. And getting out of our own when we prevent the universe from showing us what we need to know and grow.
Doing the tasks and hard jobs that we find most challenging. Most vulnerable. With the most over-accumulated resistance.
We befriend this fearlessness and hospitable virtue to make gains in our leveling up.
The awareness we dwell in can determine our bondage, as well as release us from all and any pain.
It is the choice we make.
The options we take.
And the contracts we break.
When we discover our truest essence and appear before our supreme awareness, we become absolute.
We die with completion and with all of the abounding supernatural possibilities in existence.
Leçon 11
Awareness Meditation
A guided meditation that offers ideas and direction to formulate a sensation of awareness.
An opportunity to practice deep breathwork.
