Holding What Is and Serving What Calls
for change agents, leaders and activists
Sept 29 11am-1pm Pacific Time
A participatory webinar with Jul Bystrova
by donation
We are all feeling it. The planet, and humanity, are in trouble. Feeling grief, despair and overwhelm are becoming the norm. It is essential that we build into our lives more ways of supporting our personal resilience around these very collective feelings. In a way, activists are the “antibodies” in the cellular structure of humanity, tending to the pain and suffering of our world. We need tools and practices to keep ourselves going and thriving.
In this two hour session, Jul will offer a brief introductory talk on the physiology of the mind-body relationship and a 20 minute guided meditation, the “somatic holding process”. This practice is a potent tool for meeting us wherever we are at, whatever we are feeling, and bringing relief, insight and awareness about how to be with what is happening. When we take time to acknowledge our pain and bring compassion to our darker places, we build and maintain the inner reserve that we need to take inspired action.
The meditation will be followed by time to share and inquire deeply about our experience.

The Healing Power of the Sacred Feminine
Retreat in Southern France
In this course, we will take a deep look at the nature of feminine energy and its relationship with the masculine. We will use the symbolic character and mythology of Marie Magdalene to illustrate the idea of feminine balance and power. Why is she so compelling for so many and what does she have to teach? Everyone has an innate healing power within themselves. We can learn to work with it to enable the healing and balance of our lives and our self. Very often, we work against this power without knowing it, and this brings unnecessary suffering.
In this course, we will learn the feminine approach to our own inner healing. We will dive deep into the mystery and learn the 'secret' teachings of the Goddess. We will understand how to care for ourselves and others in times of need and how to help the healing of the Earth.This course is important for both men and women. We all have both masculine and feminine within us. The healing of this world is inviting a new and much more beautiful relationship between men and women. But first, we must bring our own feminine and masculine nature into a loving balance

w/ Julia Bystrova
Learn some of the most effective, scientifically based techniques and practices to access your intuition more effectively and ways to apply it. ou will learn and amplify your ability to create health, vitality and well-being for yourself and others.When you access your intuitive abilities, you can more effectively address real needs and issues. Intuition is priceless in one's practice as well as one's life. With heightened intuitive abilities, some of the things you will experience:
Receiving information: We need to learn ways to develop and open our senses in order to be available for more information. This includes our listening and viewing abilities as well as the practice of our body or kinesthetic sense. Tuning into different information can be compared to learning how to dial into a station on the radio. You need to know how to 'dial' and which 'station' is the right one. We will learn practical ways to clear, strengthen and maintain our channels and develop the power of focus.
Discerning information: We are being bombarded with information all the time. How do we know what to listen to and what is just 'junk' or 'static'? This aspect of development is invaluable. We will learn techniques that help us to filter our information for accuracy.
Translating/communicating information: This is where having a strong knowledge base is of vital importance. Knowing the language and concepts of the issues you are addressing will help you and your client better work with the condition.
