Program Description

The Awakened States are our inherent states of wholeness, which generate our inner luminous being, our inherent goodness, and a sense of fullness, well being, and connection to the greater cosmos.  We feel whole and complete.  They are resonant states of harmonious being, living in right relationship to the living energies of the Earth and Sky, as spoken of in spiritual cultures from Tibetan Buddhism and Bon shamanism, to Native cultures throughout the Americas and other spiritual cultures across the world.  Our natural goodness and wisdom arises, which helps us to navigate the world around us, our relationships, the work we engage in, in most fulfilling ways.  We come into resonance with our inherent Knowing and Purpose.

Because we have lived in societies devoid of this understanding or lifestyle for centuries, and indeed, for many of us, for lifetimes, we have 'entrained' to, and become entangled in, lifestyles of emotional and mental confusion, chaos, or 'dissonance', if not outright suffering, trauma or abuse.  Most of us carry significant remnants, or 'obscurations' of those entanglements we have experienced throughout our many lives.  These obscure our view, and our ability to live in a cohesive manner, in right relationship.  Many in our society do not even think of these qualities, or what drives our dissatisfaction in life.  But the wisdom based cultures of the world have explicit understanding of these rightful states of being and living, and methodology of how to attain and sustain these Awakened States.  It involves a basic understanding of who we truly are as spiritual beings, and what our sacred purpose is in being here.  If you are reading this, you are on this path of spiritual awakening, though perhaps could use some assistance, or mentors who have walked this path to assist you in achieving a greater sense of fulfillment, wholeness, and purpose.

Zacciah and Dorothy are master facilitators in bringing forward the ancient and living wisdom of the Awakened States, and in sharing the experience through direct meditations and revelations using the art of Sacred Sound Transmissions.

Because they embody the wisdom of these teachings, they can articulate it clearly and directly, in ways that apply to our everyday ways of living.  They offer meditations that are transportive into other dimensional states of being, or Awakening, that are often revelational, even life changing, as often described by the participants themselves.

Their explicit methodology, and co-creative energies bring forth a field of sound that facilitates and allows for the elevation of an individual’s meditative experience and allows for a field of potential that holds the promise of sacred Union with the energies of transformation. Their merging of the seen and unseen worlds fosters a deeper understanding of our role in humanity’s journey into higher octaves of reality.**

They partner to bring forward the voice of unity of divine essence and purpose, through our inherent relationship with the the unseen worlds, to more fully awaken, embrace and embody our innate wisdom, grace, and Light, for the well being of All.  

We invite you to join us in this program.  It currently, is the only time it will be offered this year.

This, also, is our entry level program into our Consciousness Studies Series. You may take it alone, but if you have interest in continuing your studies into the art and nature of healing and self realization, this is a gateway program into further studies with Zacciah and Dorothy.

This program is appropriate for novice and experienced practitioners, as well as for those in our Sound Healing programs, and other practitioners, wanting to deepen their understanding of the interrelation of Healing and Consciousness, the nature of the authentic self, and our relationship to the principles of the Greater Cosmos. You are likely to gain extraordinary experience through this work, no matter your current level of practice, and understanding in the healing arts. This can be most beneficial for practitioners in other therapeutic fields as well, for both personal and professional insight and use.

This program format will be through direct presentation and experiential sound healing practices with Dorothy and Zacciah. There will be time for question and answer, as well as connection and exchange with the community of attendees itself. This is an excellent segue into or complement of our Sound Healing Training, as well. And, it will qualify you for our Intermediate Consciousness work later in the year, which leads to qualification in our Advanced Studies programs, and most other programs we offer which may have prerequisites to attend, including some of our outdoor Earth Journey and Wisdom work.  Though sound practices are a principle tool for experiential practice in this program, this is not a sound healing training.  Yet, those interested in sound healing work will have deep, rich experiences in the use of sound that can be inspirational and guide one deeper into their own practice.

Though this is an 'introductory program' into this body of work, Zacciah and Dorothy's programs are by no means 'introductory'. They have the potential to provide deep insight through direct experience, as well as the Wisdom presented, according to the participants readiness to receive the messages and visionary states that can arise from within the practices.  Zacciah and Dorothy both are sacred sound channels, which can bring direct experience and transmission of high and clear energies into one's meditative experience.  There is no pre-requisite in this program. This program will qualify you for registering in our next Intermediate program, which serves as an introduction and opening pathway into our Advanced Level Studies.  Our current Advanced program is in this winter, but others will follow.

This program meets online over Zoom. The Zoom link will be provided to you as a download at checkout and in an introduction mail days before the program.  You are expected to be present with video on during each program.  A recording will be provided each attendee.

Who are we as humans?

What is our purpose and destiny here, embodied on this Earth?

What is the nature of healing and self-transformation?

What are we missing or lacking?

Why do we seem to be caught in cycles of emotional entanglement, neglect, an inability to stabilize our healing or insight, or continue other forms of suffering in our lives?

How do we discover an authentic pathway of healing and incorporate it into a state of continual Self Discovery, Self-Empowerment, Transformation, and Self Realization?

How do we establish a connection to the Greater Whole that we can truly feel and sustain?

Why are these components considered the final destination of our time here by so many wisdom schools on the planet?

How, and why do they view this as the very nature and path of healing?
