The Details

• If you’ve clicked on this page, you’re on a spiritual journey; so are we. We are all awakening from a life of separation and confusion into an experience of Divine Peace and Love. We’d like to share the journey with you.
• We believe you are a significant part of this Universe, that you matter, and are valued and important.
• Our work here is to help clear the obstacles to Love’s Presence in an active participation and moment-to-moment experience.
• We’re softening the formality of traditional religious practices and moving into an awakening of the spiritual journey in this moment as life unfolding.
• We believe everyone has potential, and that we can fulfill our potential and make a positive difference in the world.
• We honor all life-affirming paths and focus on uplifting truth teachings. We provide a philosophy that is spiritual, not religious; and love-based, not fear-based.
This is a new model of spirituality for the 21st century. The mode of consuming spiritual teachings and being engaged in community is rapidly changing. There is an obvious shift, even more prevalent in younger generations, away from religion and toward personal spiritual experience and awakening:
According to a Gallup poll, “The rate of U.S. church membership has declined sharply in the past two decades after being relatively stable in the six decades before that.” It is reported that the majority of the American population is alienated from traditional church, and this percentage continues to rise.
We are in a worldwide movement away from the historical modes of worship and a movement toward an inward experience of the Divine. Research now shows that mystical encounters with God have increased from 22% in 1962, to 49% in 2009.
This time is an opportunity for innovation. The way we share and engage with spiritual teachings can change to meet the needs of the seeker wherever they may be.
This spiritual community offers a new opportunity for life-enriching teachings to be made available online (and in person), in a way that is convenient for the seeker, and made specific to the needs of the individual. This change in how we engage with spirituality offers an opportunity to meet where people are; while assisting one another in growing, understanding, and realizing personal spiritual experiences.
We are here to support and share a deeper spiritual understanding of how one fits into a universal picture. We share how we’re empowered by the Universal Life Source to live a meaningful life, a life where we fulfill our innate potential.
We share a map to more awakened levels of consciousness through our experience and those of Awakened Teachers. We share spirituality through listening, interacting, and engaging in applying teachings that support our awakening and experiencing our true nature.
We’re sharing spiritual teachings with those seeking a more joyous and meaningful life experience.
• We create open spaces to share in love and appreciation, welcoming laughter, kindness and curiosity.
• Kristen and Brian host conversations sharing spiritual Truth and Love where we share and awaken together.
• All participants in our interactive experiences agree to group agreements which include:
• Respect for one another: in the forms of loving kindness, appreciation, good will and laughter
• Listening: to be with one another and hold space for one another, being willing to engage and share in conversation with curiosity
• Confidentiality: we can share our own experience and we hold what others share in confidence.
• The environment we are creating is one of mutual respect, safety, collaboration, compassion, joy, fun, aliveness, beauty and spaciousness. It is a space for Love to flow, for connection, and to heal, create belonging and enjoy our lives.
