TIAMAT - Transformation through Play (Training / Tier 1 / Toronto)
FIRST TIME IN TORONTO AND SPACE IS LIMITED!
## Some experiences create a **before and after.** This is one of them.
There are workshops. And then there are experiences that truly give you the chance to **reorganize how you see yourself, your work, and the people around you** — that create a genuine fork in the road. TIAMAT is the latter. It has done this for performers, clinicians, seekers, and skeptics across four continents. Now, for the first time, it is coming to Toronto.
This is not a weekend of concepts and takeaways. It is a **full-body encounter with a framework** built at the intersection of cognitive science, philosophy, contemplative practice, and embodied performance — designed specifically to transfer. What shifts in the room follows you home.
We are in a moment of profound disconnection — from purpose, from one another, from a sense that our lives cohere. Most offerings gesture at this problem. **TIAMAT does something about it.** It gives you a living, rigorous, embodied practice for navigating the world differently — and access to a community of people taking that seriously alongside you.
Awaken to Meaning is proud to bring this to Toronto for the first time. **This is a rare opportunity**, and seats are limited.
**Two audiences. One experience.**
Whether you come as a practitioner or as someone who knows something is missing, TIAMAT meets you there.
**Clinicians, Coaches & Therapists:** Sharpen your sense of transference and countertransference in real-time / develop a more robust lens for where clients get stuck - somatically and relationally / expand capacity to track body, affect and relational field simultaneously / deepen self-awareness as your primary clinical instrument / gain a shared language you can bring directly into practice
**Seekers, Builders & The Curious:** A framework that bridges cognitive science, philosophy and lived practice / Real agency over how you think, feel and act - through skill, not willpower / Entry into a fellowship taking the meaning crisis seriously / A language for your inner life that holds under pressure / Transformation that doesn't fade by Monday morning
## **TIAMAT has travelled. Now it visits a new place.**
## Before Toronto, TIAMAT has been delivered across **four continents** – to performers, clinicians, researchers, educators, and people who simply knew something was missing. Each cohort has shaped the practice.
## TAIWAN \| JAPAN \| INDONESIA \| FRANCE \| NETHERLANDS \| CZECHIA \| UNITED KINGDOM \| SINGAPORE \| UNITED STATES \(MAY 2026\)
**Schedule**
\- Friday\, May 22nd \- 6pm to 10pm
\- Saturday\, May 23rd \- 10am to 8pm
\- Sunday\, May 24th \- 10am to 5pm
**Fee:** $650 USD
**Facilitation** by Ethan Hsieh, Taylor Barratt & Dr. John Vervaeke

🎬Movie: I Love Boosters - Food & Drinks after the movie 🍿!
🎬 Let’s Go to the Movies (and Actually Talk… or Not)
Whether you're a film nerd, popcorn enthusiast, or just looking for a chill night out with interesting people — this one's for you.
We’re heading out to see a movie together, then grabbing food or drinks after. If the film's great (or terrible), we’ll probably talk about it forever. If it’s just okay, we’ll talk about it for 10 minutes and move on to everything else — books, dating apps, weird dreams, how Toronto keeps getting more expensive, etc.
The vibe is relaxed, friendly, and not too serious. No film degree needed. No icebreakers. No pressure to “perform.” Just come enjoy the film, connect with some thoughtful people, and see where the night goes Click here to watch trailer!

🏛️🚶 DOORS OPEN TORONTO: HIDDEN BUILDINGS & CITY STORIES WALK 🚶🏛️
🏛️🚶 **DOORS OPEN TORONTO: HIDDEN BUILDINGS & CITY STORIES WALK** 🚶🏛️
Historic Spaces, Community Landmarks & A City Revealed
Some buildings you walk past every day without thinking twice… until the doors open.
Join us for a second day of Doors Open Toronto, where we’ll explore a mix of historic, cultural, and community spaces across the city — each with its own story, purpose, and evolution.
This walk is about contrast.
Old and new. Exclusive and inclusive. Grand and everyday.
And how all of it shapes the city we live in.
This is not a formal tour.
It’s a social, story-driven walk — with moments to pause, look, and see familiar places differently.
👉 📲 **Join Our WhatsApp Group:**[ Click here to join](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DRFTkxRlHS4B3IL1lMleUd)
\*\*\*
🚶♂️ What We’ll Do
We’ll move through a curated route of Doors Open, stopping at a variety of buildings and institutions that reflect Toronto’s layered history and community life.
Some of the locations we may visit include:
* **Fire Station 315** – Opened in 1889, this historic fire hall is built of brick with stone detailing, reflecting early 20th-century civic architecture.
* **The El Mocambo** – Opened in 1948, this iconic music venue is housed in a brick building with a classic mid-century commercial façade.
* **Daniels Building (University of Toronto)** – Opened in 1875 (as Knox College), this Gothic Revival building is constructed of sandstone with intricate masonry detailing.
* **U of T Bookstore (Koffler Student Centre)** – Opened in 1958, this modernist structure is built primarily of concrete and glass.
* **Polish Combatants' Association Branch 20** – Opened in 1950, this community hall is a modest brick structure reflecting post-war institutional design.
* **St. George’s Hall (Arts & Letters Club)** – Opened in 1891, this heritage building is constructed of brick and stone in a Victorian style.
* **St. George Greek Orthodox Church** – Opened in 1897, this church is built of brick with classical detailing and later Byzantine-inspired elements.
* **Street Health** – Established in 1986, the facility operates out of a practical brick building adapted for community healthcare use.
* **Street Haven** – Founded in 1965, this women’s shelter is housed in a converted brick residential building typical of the area.
* **Jarvis Street Baptist Church** – Opened in 1875, this Gothic Revival church is built of brick with stone accents.
* **The 519** –This building actually dates back to 1858 — long before it became The 519 we know today — and started as a Georgian-style home before evolving into a community space.
* **Foy-Smith House** – Built in 1891, this historic home is constructed of brick in the Queen Anne Revival style.
* **St. Paul’s Bloor Street** – Opened in 1889, this Romanesque Revival church is built of stone with a commanding tower and detailed masonry.
Some locations we’ll enter, others we’ll experience from the outside depending on timing and lineups.
⚠️ Please note: wait times are part of Doors Open. We’ll move as a group and make decisions along the way.
\*\*\*
🏛️ What Is Doors Open Toronto?
Doors Open Toronto is a free annual event where the city opens up buildings that are normally closed to the public — from historic homes and cultural institutions to places you’d never usually think to step inside.
It’s one of the best ways to explore Toronto beyond the surface.
\*\*\*
🌆 Vibe & Expectations
This is a longer, more exploratory walk with:
✔️ Multiple stops
✔️ Some waiting in lines
✔️ A mix of indoor and outdoor spaces
✔️ Members can leave any time the like
It’s not about rushing — it’s about discovering.
Also — this is NOT a formal historical tour. I’ll share context and stories as we go, but the focus is on the experience and being social.

Feminine Embodiment Women's Circles & Coaching
https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/c/2/f/0/600_460789904.jpeg
There is a cosmic shift happening on the planet and women are tired of playing second fiddle in this game of life. Playing small not only keeps you from manifesting what you truly want, but it also holds you back from living out your divine purpose. I’ve been there, stuck, held back, and yearning to break-free and frankly being in that place plain 'ol sucks!
What if you could step-up and make a difference; a meaningful contribution in this world by just being you? How might the landscape of your life look?
Over for the past six years, I’ve worked with women who are looking to break out of the spell of smallness. It pangs me to see women depressed, depleted, disconnected and downright insecure. One of the reasons many of my clients rave about the work we do together is because I provide immediate results. What I teach is inherent within you but there are layers of gunk bogging you down from accessing this wisdom. Spinning your wheels, and living a life of lack is no way to live, beautiful. You are so much more!
What can you expect from our sessions together:
• A solid understanding of what feminine energy is, and how to use it to have your way with the world
• Develop a physical and energetic presence that attracts what you want: personally and professionally.
• Feel more comfortable with your sensuality, and with receiving positive attention.
• Experience more passion in your life - particularly your love life.
• Be more at ease setting clear boundaries with others.
• Learn to be in flow rather than always pushing and striving to make things happen.
• Look and feel more sexy, confident and radiant
• Gain clarity about your life purpose and the greatest gifts you have to offer the world
• Establish or strengthen your intuitive guidance
Book a FREE 30-minute discovery call to learn how I can help support you on your journey to coming home to yourself as a woman. This means MORE self-love, MORE self-confidence, MORE clarity, MORE empowerment and saying YES to living out your divine mission.
For more information on my coaching packages please visit www.lusciousfeminine.com or to book a FREE 30-minute complimentary Discovery Call, email Amanda at lusciousfeminine@gmail.com
“Before working with Amanda, I was the dried-out, work-obsessed intellectual. I lived in my head and felt completely severed from the neck-down. I over-intellectualized emotionally-charged situations to avoid being present…I am [now] able to ease my ‘mind-babble’, step into my power as a woman knowing that I am safe and secure within my own space, and practice expressing my needs and desires from a more authentic place… Amanda helped me to be trust in the power of vulnerability, surrender, and acceptance. It has been a pleasurable journey! \~ Stefanie T.

🏙️🔭 DOORS OPEN TORONTO: SKYLINE VIEWS & HIDDEN SPACES WALK 🔭🏙️
Observation Decks, City Icons & A Once-a-Year Experience
Some places in Toronto you walk past every day… but rarely get to go inside.
This is your chance.
Join us for a special Doors Open Toronto outing, where we’ll explore two of the city’s most iconic buildings — including access to spaces that aren’t usually open to the public.
This event only happens once a year, and it’s one of the best ways to experience the city from a completely different perspective.
This is not a formal tour.
It’s a social outing — with incredible views, a bit of history, and shared discovery.
📲 **Join Our WhatsApp Group:**[ Click here to join](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DRFTkxRlHS4B3IL1lMleUd)
\*\*\*
🏙️ What We’ll Do
We’ll start at TD Bank Tower (66 Wellington St W), part of the Toronto-Dominion Centre — one of the finest examples of modernist architecture in the city, designed by legendary architect Mies van der Rohe.
We’ll head up to the observation area (approximately 223 metres high), where you’ll get a stunning view of Toronto’s skyline from a space that isn’t typically open to the public.
From there, we’ll walk over to Toronto City Hall and visit its observation deck.
Opened in 1965 and designed by Finnish architect Viljo Revell, City Hall’s curved twin towers and central council chamber make it one of Toronto’s most recognizable landmarks.
From above, you’ll get a completely different view of Nathan Phillips Square and the downtown core.
⚠️ Please note: both locations are very popular during Doors Open, so there will likely be wait times. Part of the experience is the buzz and energy of the day.
Afterward, we’ll head over to CF Toronto Eaton Centre for a casual lunch in the food court. 🍔🥗
You’re welcome to join or head out whenever you like.
\*\*\*
**🏛️ What Is Doors Open Toronto?**
Doors Open Toronto is a free annual city-wide event that opens the doors to architecturally, historically, and culturally significant buildings across Toronto.
For one weekend, you can explore spaces that are usually closed to the public — from office towers and historic sites to creative and civic spaces.
It’s one of the best ways to connect with the city and see what’s normally hidden in plain sight.
\*\*\*
🌦️ **Weather & Expectations**
This event will run rain or shine.
Be prepared for:
✔️ Walking between locations
✔️ Standing in lines
✔️ A busy, energetic atmosphere
Wear comfortable shoes and bring patience — it’s part of the experience.
Also — this is NOT a guided historical tour. I’ll share context casually, but the focus is on exploring together.
\*\*\*

At Unity of Columbus, our Youth and Family Ministry nurtures the spiritual growth of children and families through love, joy, and practical spiritual teachings. Each Sunday, children explore timeless spiritual principles through stories, creative activities, music, and group sharing in a safe and welcoming environment.
Our program encourages children to discover their own inner light, express kindness, and develop a personal connection with God.
