Integrative Awakening
Psychospiritual Integrative Awakening offers a revolutionary and creative approach to transformation. These sessions facilitate the direct, body-centered experience of awakening, conscious connection to Source, and the integral union of emotion, mind and body. The depth of transformation is greatly enhanced and facilitated by both meditative and embodiment practices. Much of the psychospiritual training develops feeling awareness within the midline/central channel/core of the body, allowing for an opening into an ease of being. Further cultivation into feeling awareness of the head, heart and hara allows for an ease of navigation, and is discovered as a doorway for the feeling-experience of heart (union with self/soul integration).Private and couple consultations are an hour to an hour and a half long. Weekend workshops are available. During this work, there will be guidance, breath-work, movement, and occasional gentle touch. Here you receive the opportunity to relax cognitive mental perceptions and be guided into feeling and sensing the body's domain. With this gentle perceptual shift, through awareness and breath, the natural world of your body begins to open. Learning to navigate through feeling and sensing brings primal aliveness to your body. By using a precision enfoldment sequence or map of awakening, one's feeling awareness is skillfully guided into the precise areas of the body and psyche where love, understanding and integration are most needed for nourishment, vitality and awakening. Supportive facilitation is offered for embracing the ground reality and complete validity of our human feelings, needs and desires, as well as for opening into a direct, authentic, feeling-experience of the heart (true intimacy / union with self / soul integration). This is the authentic relationship, intimacy and connection we are seeking! Psychological transformation and spiritual awakening are inseparable, a continuum. And this cultivation is a subtle yet dynamic process of relaxing cognitive and emotional resistance and choosing to open the heart and body. This grand evolutionary opportunity is available in each and every moment, in each and every breath...either meeting with our fear and resistance or with our willingness to relax into the undefended intimacy of awakening. This work is not about trying to feel good by gaining or adding something new. Integrative Awakening is about letting go, about releasing cognitive and emotional misperceptions of reality and directly experiencing one's true self, the heart. This is the experience that brings deep transformation. The work of Integrative Awakening is about feeling what is real. It is about coming into emotional sobriety and intimacy with reality! As we navigate our awareness through the layers of fear and misperception that obscure our essence, we touch the heart-the true self. As we learn to assimilate this experience of heart directly into our body, without contracting in fear or resistance, we begin to know and feel authentically who we are. We can share this authenticity of heart with one another...this is tenderness...this is intimacy...this is community. This is the path of psychological and spiritual awakening. Consultations During our work together, you will learn a way of allowing your awareness to deepen into the heart and body so the unconscious sources of your fear, anxiety and confusion can be recognized and transformed. You will have the choice to feel, embrace, recognize and relax into the next stages of our personal and collective evolution. In the work of Integrative Awakening, I listen deeply as you express your emotional and/or evolutionary challenges. I sense and read the subtle energies in your body, mind and heart, helping you navigate your awareness into the precise areas where your soul (heart) and personality (humanness) are most needing harmonious integration (union and balance). Our sessions are positive, accepting and empowering. Many existing therapies are based upon models of lack, deficiency and wounding-that something is wrong with a person and needs to be eradicated, fixed or healed. That is an old model with limited benefit. In the work of Integrative Awakening, deep change, empowerment and awakening occurs through the art of being completely present and consciously embracing whatever is unfolding in a relaxed and open manner. In this way, one learns to stop judging and fighting their experience; ending the internal resistance, stress and war. Anxiety, confusion and pain are simply a reflection of how we are grasping at or trying to push away our experience; they are not dysfunctional or defective! In our work together, we develop a heart-centered and co-creative partnership, involving subtle listening, empathic skills and dialogue. This allows me to see and sense your specific evolutionary needs. I will support you in feeling, recognizing, embracing and transforming the actual root causes of your fear, anxiety or pain. I assist you, in an effective and non-invasive manner, to transform disempowering cognitive and emotional misperceptions of reality. You will also learn how to open into a more direct and conscious experience of Source, your true self or heart. Through our work together, you will be empowered with the understanding and practices you may use to cultivate greater physical, emotional and spiritual health and well-being. |

"Sara Kendall Gordon has studied the work of Psycho-spiritual Integrative Awakening with me personally and within the context of numerous professional group trainings. Her heartfelt sincerity and dedication has been most outstanding. Above all, her willingness to apply, integrate and take responsibility for these teachings, in relation to her own psychological and spiritual development, is truly the most important part of the certification process for this work and what makes for an excellent, well-trained facilitator. I fully endorse and feel confident in Sara's ability to effectively and lovingly support her clients in the psychological and spiritual development required for the path of awakening. "
