THE AWAKENING WORKSHOP, The Developement of Emerging Human Consciousness
WELCOME to THE AWAKENING WORKSHOP For Developing; Consciousness, Spirituality and Joy!
Awakening is a solo journey. However, in this website we will provide you with the tools, experiences and insights, that can help guide you through the process.
When you become aware of the process beginning, it is a Gift from God. What you do with the Emerging Consciousness that follows, is up to you.
As I saw my personal journey beginning, a desire to understand and gain further information on the subject matter, became a driving force behind the new direction my life was heading.
This site is the culmination of the most profound material and resources that have benefited my wife Deniece and I over fifteen years of Extensive Study and Personal Experience.
This study and spiritual developement, led us to write our book; Manifesting Consciousness Sub-titled; A Very Personal Journey Through the Awakening Process To further share the challenges and pitfalls that we encountered through this life altering transformation.
As Higher Consciousness manifests within you, your day to day life will begin to change as you start to perceive yourself and the world around you in a new light. Eventually, happiness and joy become your primary experience, but not without some serious inner work and self evaluation on your part.
Our book and this website are designed to Stimulate and Encourage Dialogue about the process so we can learn together how the experience alters our lives, and how we can integrate that emerging consciousness into our daily activities.
You won't find stories in this website about traveling to distant lands or climbing mountains to sit under a tree with a "Spiritual Guru" that instantly transforms you into an enlightened being. Instead you will find down to earth, real life examples of how the awakening process has changed our lives. Our choices in dealing with common, ordinary situations, is where we find ourselves occasionally operating "out of the box" from traditional society. This is a natural byproduct of increased consciousness which makes you aware of the dysfunction and insanity that is common place in the world today.
In our work, Deniece and I get very personal because it reveals that we all share similar thoughts and experiences, pointing out that we are in this together and that we can challenge ourselves to see beyond what we currently perceive. By exposing our insecurities and weaknesses, we start to diminish the power they have over us by shining the light of truth and consciousness upon them. Once these painful, and sometimes terrifying aspects of our lives are seen for what they truly are (illusions created by the ego), we can finally start to challenge the stressful, unhealthy, un-true thoughts that create them thereby giving us the opportunity to let them go. This in turn will eventually give us the peace and happiness we wish to experience in our lives.
Each of us is on our own unique journey and we want to encourage you to share your experiences and insights with us. So with your permission, we may share your story in our monthly Newsletter. Every aspect of your life has meaning and is perfect by design, and in sharing ourselves with the world, we learn how to undo the negative social stigmas and judgments that the ego uses to keep us imprisoned. This illusional prison is designed to create fear that prevents us from making the choices that will challenge the ego and diminish it's power to rule our lives.
Consciousness exposes the lies and misconceptions that the ego has created, thereby giving us the opportunity to realize the insanity it creates. It may not be easy for you to see the dysfunction in your life, but the concept itself is a simple one. We are the ones who make it hard by judging ourselves harshly.
The Awakening Process has been tough for me at times but that was only when I allowed the ego to take controll and therefore cause me to feel victim to the changes and insights that were unfolding. However, when I challenged the ego's story, the rewards that accompanied this new awareness, have far exceeded my wildest dreams! Those rewards are Peace of Mind and Increasing Joy.
Globally, as consciousness arises, our current fear based operating system will start to collapse as love, integrity and authenticity emerge in its place.
Through this process, we have discovered that it can be helpful to find support in understanding the ordinary struggles that most of us face on a daily basis. If you're wondering if the process has started for you one way to know that it has is your interest in this subject matter.
This website was created for the individual who is serious about understanding truth and discovering who you really are.
Change can be difficult, but when you have reached the point in your life where you are truly tired of the way things are, this website and our book provide resources and examples that may help you with your journey.
The following web pages offer further insight on each topic. One could literally write volumes about each, but that is not the intention here. Consider reading a page or two in the morning while you sip your favorite beverage. Then contemplate what you read throughout the rest of your day. I prefer contemplation to meditation because there are no special conditions required to do it, such as a quite room. Meditation is helpful in getting us to slow down from our hectic lives and take a moment to be still, which for many of us can have a profound impact on our daily routine. However, it's like taking a "Time Out" from life instead of integrating a contemplative state at all times which allows us to take part in worldly experiences without being controlled by them. This is what it meant when Jesus said "Be in the world but not of it".
When this material isn't enough and you are really ready to delve deeper into this work, our Awakening Workshops are designed to do just that.
"For real change to occur, we must first understand and accept who we really are." Travis Dumont
"The basic thing is that everyone wants happiness, no one wants suffering. And happiness mainly comes from our own attitude, rather than from external factors. If your own mental attitude is correct, even if you remain in a hostile atmosphere, you feel happy." H.H. The Dalai Lama

OUR BOOK
Our Book entitled Manifesting Consciousness, took an entire lifetime to write because it's the culmination of everything we've learned and experienced since we were born. The books manifestation is a pinnacle of sorts because it expresses a chapter in our lives where it's time to share what we have come to understand. That being said, we know it's just the beginning of a new phase in our personal journey towards consciousness.
PREFACE
Our Preface will give you a small taste of what our book is about, and you can find a link to it from the "OUR BOOK" page.
Our story is the foundation that this website was created on. Facing one's fears is a monumental undertaking, but if you accept that opportunity you may discover that no challenge is to difficult to handle and no obstacle is to high to climb.
The Goal of this Website
The creation of this website is for the purpose of stimulating dialogue about the Awakening Process and to assist individuals who are going through it.
