Consciousness Training Classes
Your Map of Consciousness
The human chakra system that lies within our energetic bodies is known primarily as the delivery system of our life force energy. It also serves another very powerful purpose: that of literally connecting us to our expansive, multi-dimensional selves. Understanding this energetic body wisdom is a path to wholeness in and of itself.
Conscious Creation
Be a conscious creator by tapping into universal principles of manifestation, such as the Law of Attraction. Grow your awareness of these important principles and begin creating the life you imagine.
Living a Conscious Life
Bring your coffee & join our conscious community as we dialogue ways to become part of the solution & live more consciously
Components of Love
We all desire love, but so often feel it is missing in our lives. In this workshop we will look at the components of love and see clearly how to open up the space to receive the love that is our birthright.
Go With the Flow
Ease of manifestation requires an understanding of the flow & structure inherent in all of creation. In this class we will grow our awareness of this concept & practice applying it to our everyday lives.
Find Your Voice, Touch your Soul
Dive into the heart of devotion through the practice of sacred mantras, finding the voice of your true essence as you do.
Expression!
Held expression is a common experience of the human experience taught in every culture. Unfortunately, it also creates limiting belief structures that block our energy flow and can be toxic to the human body and psyche. In this workshop we will practice reception of expression and begin to open up to the whole expression of self.
Personal Sessions – in person or by phone
Now is the time to grow your personal conscious awareness. Remove the layers of limitation that seek to hide who you really are. The universe awaits you!
Conscious Couples~ Gain a fresh perspective and learn new ways of relating to yourself and others. Rejuvenate your relationship as you move to a whole new level of experience together
Corporate Consciousness~ train your staff to prepare for the world to come!

MEDITATION BASICS
Anyone can meditate. It is a matter of learning to relax your focus on the present moment, for it is in that moment that we open space to access to our inner being, which is always receptive and joyous.
The mind tends to wander to the past & future,so the idea is to practice being here now. That can be done when walking, gardening, painting, dancing, even doing the dishes can be a meditation.
Focusing on the physical body is always a good place to start, so I always start with slow deep breaths, which draws your focus inward, flowing your life force energy through your entire body.
Deep breathing elicits the relaxation response, so that practice alone could be your entire meditative process. To get you started, try the meditation below which I wrote at the request of one of my students who said she only had five minutes a day to meditate. I recommend you say it outloud to yourself every day.
After each statement, take a least one deep breath before moving on. Don't skip this, as that is the part that opens the space for the magic to happen. This meditation actually morphed into a song one day, all by itself it seemed, and became the song Yes I AM on OM GAIA.
So, the purpose of meditation then is to stop the exhaustion of constantly DOING and consider just BEING for a moment or two, for it is in that moment that all of our unrealized potential awaits us.
DAILY MEDITATION
Begin with three slow, deep breaths, then say the following words out loud
I AM ME ~ the director of my energy (slow deep breath)
I AM HERE NOW ~ I call my consciousness into the present moment (slow deep breath)
I AM CENTERED within my being ~ placing me within the center of my essence (slow deep breath)
I AM GROUNDED to the earth ~ present & connected as I co-create with earth’s magical energies ( 3 deep breaths) ~ opens space & allows my life force energy to move
And I TRUST ~ take a leap of faith
that All That I love & desire flows into my life with ease & grace now ~ setting my intention
As I focus on WHAT IS in my life ~ allowing it to grow and SURRENDER into my unknown potential ( 3 more deep breaths)
And so it is ~Letting go & allowing my intention to manifest & my next step unfold
INTENTIONAL PRACTICE For ABUNDANCE
To increase the effectiveness of this intention, stop after each space, focus on the space, and take a slow deep breath before proceeding
Print out & practice daily to create new neural pathways for this intention to manifest.
I AM ME, the director of my energy flow
AND
I AM financially secure
AND
I allow my thoughts, emotions
and belief systems to adjust
to receive new opportunities awaiting me
AND I FLOW
a rich vein of financial & personal abundance
that I willingly accept
and richly deserve
NOW
In this moment
Rest your worries Recall your dreams
And allow the magic to happen
Use this version of the 5-minute mediation to set intention for radiant health
Intention for Health
I AM ME, the pure essence of being in a continuous flow of ease
AND
I AM in Radiant Health
AND
I allow my thoughts, emotions
and belief systems to adjust
to manifest a body free of dis-ease now
AND I FLOW
An innate vein of personal joy & love
that I willingly accept
and richly deserve
NOW
In this moment
As I rest my worries Recall my dreams
And relax into the vibration of my pure life force energy, calling each healthy cell to entrain the cells around it to come into alignment
I will continue to add additional info and new mantras & meditations, so check back often...
NAMASTE BEAUTIFUL BEINGS AND BREATHE!!!!! Om Shanti, Terri
