Basic Intensive Program
--Session One--
Creating, Expanding, and Holding Presence within ourselves, with others, and as a community.
The first week of the Healing Den program is an introduction to self-awareness, presence, and energy dynamics through a variety of exercises and experiences. This is often experienced as a mind-bending experience as the mind does not know how to make meaning or to do its job as healing presence suspends the common functions of the mind.
We will learn
- What is presence
- What is grounding, grounded presence?
- Everything is energy is easily explained until we begin to experience it and realize that it is the core of our existence.
- What is the felt sense of experience and what wisdom lives within it.
- What is the intimate edge of vulnerability and presence and why do we seek it and are afraid of it.
- We connect energetically to everything consciously or unconsciously. Self-awareness can lead to greater presence
- The mind is an organic intelligence that has created ways to think, feel safe, survive, thrive, and understand that undermines our presence
- Rocks and Crystals connect to us when we slow down and shift our sense of groundedness and expansiveness.
- Meditation is the doorway to presence, your presence, and the unwinding of the person your supposed to be.
We will experience
- The confusion of the mind when engaged with healing energies, commonly, inducing disconnection in the form of sleep or dissociation.
- The expansive sense of oneself as we surrender to the energies by allowing them in
- The power, awareness of the presence of what is present, within every rock and crystal that impacts our sense of self.
- Energy fields and vulnerability that can be mastered through presence.
We will be changed
Our sense of awareness of ourselves will create a completely new sense of self through the expansive nature of presence. Presence is the essence of who we are and has been forgotten by most as their mind developed into the master of interpreting your experience.
Basic Exercises
Sensitizing to energies, through an assortment of experiences such as crystal energies, forming circles of energies, and basic energy practices.
Energy exercise will include
- Hand on front and back of partner at 6-12 inches to feel the connections of the two hands and for the partner to feel the energy moving through the body.
- Range of 4-6 exercises with rock and crystal awareness to feel the energies while beginning to sense the formation of a circle of connected energies.
- Range 4-8: Table and chair exercise of learning to be presence in the multiple roles focusing on supporting client to be present with eye contact. Repeat these often in different configurations.
- Teaching as supportive.
- Basic facilitation skills
- Do Unto versus Be With.
- Understanding and dissolving performance anxiety.
- 1-2 per day: deep guided meditations.
- Applicable artwork to learn to trust and express that which has not words to build trust within oneself about the processes.
- Process. Process. Process to develop awareness and language for experiences.
Core Theories & Teachings
- Contact Model
- Indepth review of presence
- Internal versus external authority
- Intent with Attentiveness increases presence.
- Conscious awareness reveals your created reality
Basic Intensive Program
--Session Two--
Creating, Expanding, and Holding Presence within circles and many sacred ways
The second week of the Healing Den Program is a cumulative process of pulling forward what has been practiced and learned in daily life, through practice sessions, zoom teachings of the theory, and evolving insights through the mentoring processes. Frozen moments in time will be revealed as a core concept of the importance of healing presence. Awareness and insights may fill the week’s many experiences.
We will learn
- What are time crystals, frozen moments in time that seek re-entry to the present moment for integration into who we are.
- What is internal versus external authority that leads either to being more presence or to be absent to ourselves and others.
- What is sacred space/liminal space, that space between time where are healing occurs.
- How to make a time crystal tool that supports dissolving frozen moments in time.
- How to facilitate with more awareness and presence.
- How to build basic altars that can support recentering ourselves in a world that seeks to keep us self-absent.
We will experience
- Sacred circles from more self-aware spaces that has focused our attentiveness to the presence of what is present.
- Release of time crystals through shungite/selenite that naturally and painlessly dissolves the emotional pain/fear energy surrounding time crystals.
- Release of time crystals from allowing emerging parts to surface through art.
- Many practice sessions within fields of energy, experiencing time crystals and their release.
- Many stones and crystals support allowing the mind to release and the heart to open.
- Deep meditations into the inner worlds of ourselves.
We will be changed
These expanding energies will begin the unfolding of the many hidden, frozen, forgotten, or banished energies that seek to be released into wholeness and not frozen in time. This can create a sense of wholeness, feeling more like oneself, that acknowledges how much of our energy has been frozen in time that has sought to be freed and integrated.
Basic exercises
Continue the development of confidence by doing multiple exercises of healing with clients while learning to language the releases as moment frozen in time.
Energy exercise will include
- Rock and crystal awareness to feel the energies while expanding the sense of the formation of a circle of connected energies.
- Refine language of a moment frozen in time and how to personally sit with these at the intimate edge to develop self-trust and reveal the hidden
- Table and chair exercise of learning to be presence in the multiple roles focusing on supporting client to be present with eye contact. Repeat these often in different configurations. Add without words to learn to trust sensing.
- Teaching as supportive.
- We will introduce the intimate edge of presence
- Several deep guided meditations.
- Basic facilitation skills
- With descriptive phrases
- With presence and no words.
- Applicable artwork to learn to trust and express that which has not words to build trust within oneself about the processes.
- Process. Process. Process to develop awareness and language for experiences.
Core Theories & Teaching
- Edges of Presence
- Further review of contact model to understand vulnerability and presence
- Liminality/Sacred Space
- Internal versus external authority
- Intent with Attentiveness increases presence.
- Conscious awareness reveals your created reality
- Map Of Consciousness
Advanced Intensive Program
--Session One--
Creating, Expanding, and Holding Presence in the Liminality of Sacred Space
The purpose of the first session of the Advanced Intensive (third week of the Healing Den program) is to stretch into a deeper and broader understanding of presence, energy, and sacred space. This is a profound expansion of the prior two weeks of experiential learning. Constant staying in the connection with oneself, the circle, and the earth energies will require focused attention and the emergence of fully aware presence.
Note: The Advanced Intensive may be used as a certified practitioner path. It will require attending both weeks as well as the monthly video training meetings.
We will learn
- How to create and invoke sacred technologies such as medicine wheels, different types of altars, and healing circles.
- We will create different rituals and ceremonies after learning the processes required to create the healing presence of them
- We will apply prayers as a state of being that which is prayed
- We will utilize different stone and crystal energies
- Sensing expanded energy fields
- We will open ourselves to deeper meditative states of awareness.
- We will stay tethered to ourselves as ground-in fully connected human beings seeking wholeness through expanding our self-awareness.
We will experience
- Using Time crystal tools to discover our normal energetic boundary whether stretched or compressed so as to learn to form a healthy energetic boundary that ensure presence.
- Different rituals and ceremonies that can be for oneself, for others, for creating a community healing, etc.
- The exponential experience of being on medicine wheels and within ceremonies that can expand our energies beyond our normal sense of self.
- We will continue to create art as self-expressions of what cannot be expressed in words.
- We will seek our connection to ourself as a fully connected person within the community.
Basic exercises
Continue the development of confidence by doing multiple exercises of healing with clients while learning to language the releases as moment frozen in time. In an advanced process, we will expand internal constructs of what is real by experientially stretching awareness in a safe environment.
Energy exercise will include
- Rock and crystal awareness to feel the energies while expanding the sense of the formation of a circle of connected energies including learning about disturbances in the circle when people leave through thoughts, fears, or disconnection..
- Refine the language of a moment frozen in time and how to personally sit with these at the intimate edge while using time crystal tools to develop self-trust and reveal the hidden. This will be done individually in guided meditation, and in healing exercises.
- Table and chair exercise of learning to be presence in the multiple roles focusing on supporting client to be present with eye contact. Repeat these often in different configurations. Add without words to learn to trust sensing.
- Teaching as supportive. Add with eyes closed to make the energies more real

Advanced Intensive Program
--Session Two--
Creating, Expanding, and Holding Focused Attentiveness within and with others through Healing Presence.
The purpose of the second session of the Advanced Intensive (fourth week of the Healing Den program) is to stretch into a deeper and broader understanding of presence, energy, and sacred space. This is a profound capstone of the prior three weeks of experiential learning. Constant staying in the connection with oneself, the circle, and the earth energies will require focused attention and the emergence of fully aware presence as we expand beyond day-to-day reality to learn about prayers, and long distance healing.
Note: The Advanced Intensive may be used as a certified practitioner path. It will require attending both weeks as well as the monthly video training meetings.
We will learn
- How to expand your capacity to manifest prayers by being the prayers.
- How to direct long distance healing for others.
- How to create healing for others through formation of matrices of healing presence.
- How to create and invoke sacred technologies such as medicine wheels, different types of altars, and healing circles via presence.
- We will continue to create different rituals and ceremonies after learning the processes required to create the healing presence of them.
- We will utilize different stone and crystal energies.

- Fields create network or matrix connections such as community forming an energetic connection as individual and as a whole.
- Understanding you co-create the fields.
- We will lead different rituals and ceremonies that can be for oneself, for others, for creating a community healing, etc.
- The exponential experience of creating your own medicine wheels and within ceremonies that can expand our energies beyond our normal sense of self.
- We will continue to create art as self-expressions of what cannot be expressed in words.

- We will seek our connection to ourself as a fully connected person within the community.
- We will facilitate a ceremony or community ritual or a long distance healing. Projecting healing presence to another not located in close proximity.
We will be changed
This final week of the program, generally provided for those seeking to be certified HD practitioners, is designed to stretch your bounds while seeking massive integration of your own healing presence. Constantly grounding oneself to know that grounding is not just being in your body but being in your body while being fully aware of others and your environment. It is knowing a healing presence has cleared the assumptions, scripts, and imprints of the past so that you can be fully present.
Basic exercises
Continue the development of confidence by doing multiple exercises of healing with clients while learning to language the releases as moment frozen in time. In an advanced process, we will expand internal constructs of what is real by experientially stretching awareness in a safe environment. This means that we will experience the edges of self-identity of what is real or not.
Energy exercise will include
- Rock and crystal awareness to feel the energies while expanding the sense of the formation of a circle of connected energies including learning about disturbances in the circle when people leave through thoughts, fears, or disconnection..
- Refine language of a moment frozen in time and how to personally sit with these at the intimate edge while using time crystal tools to develop self-trust and reveal the hidden. This will be done individually in guided meditation, and in healing exercises.

- Teaching as supportive.
- Several deep guided meditations.
- Applicable artwork and build time crystals to learn to trust and express that which has not words to build trust within oneself about the processes.
- Formation and teaching of long distance healing, one-to-one, by forming a healing presence in spaces not here physically.
- Process. Process. Process to develop awareness and language for experiences.
Core Theories & Teaching
- Time is a place
- Space is a container with intention
- Intent with Attentiveness increases presence.
- Conscious awareness reveals your created reality
- Presence can be projected anywhere
A thought
Living in these energies is like rearranging our DNA and creating a crossroads that can involve confidence or conceit. Confidence will be in the form of humble confidence to understand that the one is only the vehicle to invoke the presence of what is present. Conceit will be in the form of how to invoke a personal sense of greatness while opening the liminality of sacred space. This will lead to absence of oneself. We will support the release of the time crystal that invokes conceit instead of humbleness.
Advanced Healing Den Classes
After completing at least one intensive (two week) program, there are several workshops that focus on more depth and internal experience of the capability and capacity of healing presence.
Here are a few examples.
- Matrix Formation and Healing Practices
- Manifesting: How We Subconsciously Create our reality
- Liminal Space and Prayers: Being the Prayers
- Edges of Presence: Doorways or Places?
- Understanding the energetic Creation of Reality: Entropy & Syntropy
- Medicine Wheel Intensive: Indepth Step into Sacred Space and Grace.
Others will be offered as they emerge, and we evolve
Generally, workshops are never taught exactly the same way as we are evolving and emerging beings.
Sacred Prayer
I ask for a strong heart, one where I have the courage, commitment and discipline to Show up and be present without preconceived notions, while having the Ability to Take Action and Enforce Boundaries
I ask for a clear heart where I have the inner self-respect and the sense of responsibility to Assess, Analyze and Consciously make meaning consistent with my true integrity, while saying what is so when it is so, without blame or judgment.
I ask for an open heart where I have the compassion and openness to be able to Connect and Feel with myself, those around me, and the environment, while surrendering to what has heart and meaning to my deepest soul.
I ask for a full heart where I have the generosity, patience, wisdom, conscious awareness, and maturity to be able to Initiate, Support and Create Order while being open to outcome wherever I walk in this world.
