What we’re about
For those who want to awaken from the mind to their true nature and embody more freedom and fulfillment in their spirituality, relationships, and soul expression.
We come together to explore embodied direct experience, remember what is always here, and support each other in awakening and living awake in daily life.
There are three types of gatherings to support this:
- Live Awake Meetings — for those who want to awaken to their true nature and live that in daily life.
- Essence Relating Circles — for those who want to experience the fulfillment they know in solitude while being with people.
- "Awaken From Your Mind" Free Experiential Talk — for those who sense they may be missing something essential and want to explore the shift of perception that can change everything.
If you feel drawn to awakening and living awake with others who care about truth, you’re welcome here.

💧Awaken From Your Mind • A Free Experiential Talk
Boulder Main Library Boulder Creek Room, 1001 Arapahoe St., Boulder, CO, USWould you like to live more awake? To experience the spiritual fulfillment and clarity in daily life you sense, or hope is possible?
Awakening from your mind is a powerful first step.
So many sincere seekers spend their time in spiritual practice trying to control, calm, accept, or watch their mind. Some of these practices can be very useful, but they're not the same as awakening from your mind. Intimately experiencing your essence—and gaining the clarity to live more freely as that... this often requires a more direct approach, and skilled guidance.
Most people want a life filled with what matters most: Spiritual fulfillment, enriching relationships, enlivening soul expression, and meaningful contribution—with a felt sense of belonging. Yet even after powerful breakthroughs, many get pulled back into overthinking, doubt, confusion, and old behaviors.
This free experiential talk will show you why awakening from the mind is the shift that can change everything. Instead of giving you a theory or more concepts, you’ll be guided through a simple, direct experience that helps you:
• Cut through mental noise
Wake up to what’s true, beyond the limits of thinking
• Clarify what matters most
• Reconnect with the fulfillment that's already here
It’s not abstract. You’ll feel the shift in your body.
If you’re sincere, curious, or quietly longing for something more real, join us and discover why I call awakening from your mind the first step to living what matters most.

💛 Essence Relating • Connecting From Essence Instead of Conditioning
Boulder, CO, https://maps.app.goo.gl/BbnCTffweDTuZeoVA, Boulder County, CO, USHave you been longing for more depth in your connections?
If you’re interested in awakening, living awake, or are highly sensitive—and want to experience more fulfillment when your with people—Essence Relating was created for you. We connect through embodied presence, silence, and the speaking that arises from this. Be aware: tears, laughter, and deep insights are common occurrences.
Join us and experience what it’s like to abide in the steady fulfillment of your own essence while connecting with others.
This is more than a sharing or authentic relating circle. It’s a deeply intentional space to:
- Embody present moment awareness in connection
- Transform your relational nervous system
- Relate from essence to essence rather than old limiting patterns
- Discover the nourishment that arises when truth is felt and expressed together—through speech and silence.
- Come away with a simple powerful tool to bring what you gain into your daily life.
Join us in this safe space where we deepen awakening and hone the skills for transforming our relating experiences—within the circle, beyond the circle, and with each other.
“I don’t think I have ever felt this at peace in a circle of people.”
—Danae Yume Shanti
