Mutual Awakening - Meditating as a WE
Driven by the forces of love, the fragments of the world
seek each other so that the world may come in to being.
- Teilhard de Chardin
Many of us recognize that the mindset of “What’s in it for me” is neither satisfying us as individuals nor serving life on Earth. There is a longing for a shift in consciousness. For most of us, that path of awakening has been strictly an individual journey. And while it’s essential to awaken and develop individually . . . it can make us feel achingly alone – as if we have to carry the future all on our own.
Instead of retreating within ourselves . . . to truly wake up from our separateness, we can turn towards each other to bring forth a new consciousness, together.

What is Mutual Awakening
Mutual Awakening is an emergent, spiritual practice that's done together, speaking and with our eyes open. Our shared attention awakens the space We are in, allowing for a shared, unitive experience that's beyond our social personas, or strategies for communicating. We feel a sense of unity with each other, opening us up to more freedom from the ego, and more intimacy with Life and ourselves.
People's experience in their own words...
In the very beginning, the practice takes a little getting used to. After practicing Mutual Awakening for over a year, I’ve noticed that it allows me to have a more present experience of life, dependably. It has helped me more fully connect with the people around me so that I participate in what’s going on from a connected space. I’ve noticed that the practice has softened me and helped me go toward things instead of holding back, making up a story, analyzing or compartmentalizing. - BP

“The changes I’m noticing in myself include an ongoing dissolving of unsupportive 'me' traits, a deepening peace, the beckoning of more possibilities, more, more. This is such a joyous awesome privilege, thank you. Becoming part of the shared experience of Mutual Awakening with other beautiful hearts is a pristine gift. Indescribable Love!” - JR
_________
It’s a doorway to the softest, most open and reverent way I’ve ever experienced another human or myself and the most “Oneness” I’ve ever felt. - EM

Seen and Met
What if we had shared rituals & practices that reminded us of the future world we so deeply desire, and met our longing to be authentically seen?
Not the sparkling personalities, or conforming expressions of ourselves that we think we have to show to the world, but our sacred, inner self.
To really know our fundamental Unity in a direct and real way... helps to resolve so much of the things that cause pain for ourselves personally --
the stress,
the fear,
the control,
the insecurity,
the mistrust,
and resolves so much of what causes us to contract and be with one another in ways that cause unnecessary suffering for the whole relational ecosystem of humanity that we are a part of.
In this live 4-week online course you will be guided by me, Mutual Awakening Teacher Stephanie Shindler, through a new course module each week. Each session is 90 minutes in length, focusing on entering practicing with others, coaching, and Q & A.
Unlike so many offerings out there,
that are either passive downloads, or live classes where once you've paid, it doesn't matter to the group if you attend or not,
in this course, your unique presence & engagement matter.
