[symple_divider style=”solid” margin_top=”10px” margin_bottom=”10px”] Meditation Mount was the creative idea of Florence Garrigue who lived at the Mount and oversaw all activities. The facilities were completed in 1971 under the direction of Zelma Wilson, Architect. coque iphone 6 Zelma sought to make the buildings reflect the spirit of the participants, and serve as highly functional structures attuned to their setting. Grant Castleberg of Santa Barbara served as landscape architect for the center. Florence, the Mount’s founder, came to Ojai in 1968 to establish a center for the work of Meditation Groups, Inc. which she had begun 10 years earlier in New York City. coque iphone xs max After selection of the site in the east end of the valley, she worked closely with Ojai architect Zelma Wilson in planning the beautiful Tibetan – style buildings and arranging the financing of the project with generous gifts from people who believed in the work of the organization. The center at the end of Reeves Road then became known as “Meditation Mount.” Their purpose was the fostering of meditation to benefit the world. They achieved this by using small booklets written on various aspects of spiritual topics, sending them by mail to individuals in a rhythmic pattern of every two months. Taking a step back into Florence’s past we can see how all of this evolved. When Florence retired in 1943, she moved to New York to join the Arcane school, an institution for esoteric studies founded by Alice A Bailey. After 10 years there, she and a group of friends started the School for Esoteric Studies in New York which is still active. coque iphone 8 She then became a member of a small informal group of individuals from several countries who met in England for the purpose of fostering meditation to benefit the world. They achieved their purpose by using small booklets written on various aspects of spiritual topics, sending them by mail to individuals in a rhythmic pattern of every two months. It was from this group and its concept that she returned and founded the US branch of Meditation Groups, Inc. Many of the booklets were written by Roberto Assagioli, an Italian Psychologist whose lifework was to bring meditation and spirituality into the realm of psychology and human development. In the mid 1990′s the distribution of meditation booklets was discontinued. Since that time Meditation Mount has functioned an educational center offering spiritual programs that enhance the awakening of the human soul in all aspects of social endeavor. coque iphone 8 Daily and Monthly Full Moon meditations continue to be an important part in the daily rhythm in the Mount’s life.

Makeover guru makes over meditation in new L.A. studio Los Angeles, CA (April 8, 2014) — A peaceful haven is emerging in a surprising location. As drivers whiz past concrete buildings on Wilshire Boulevard in West L.A., they speed by an oasis of calm they’d be delighted to discover. Hidden next to a courtyard, with a bamboo garden and 15-foot water fountain, is the perfect place to take a grown-up time-out. Starting April 15, 2014, unplug meditation will provide a serene studio where you can take a break from traffic, devices, kids and bosses, morning, noon and night. coque iphone 8 Suze Yalof Schwartz, whom the New York Times called “the fairy godmother” of makeovers, is now making over meditation. The busy mom and fashion editor was looking for a place to meditate but couldn’t find anything that fit her fast-paced life and high-end taste. She tried all the venues at which you could possibly meditate in Los Angeles, but instead of tuning into her breath, she cast her editor’s eye on all the things she could make better, from the spaces to the classes to the instructors. coque iphone 8 Yalof Schwartz wanted to merge soul with science, and balance the best of both. So she took over a dark, grey, head-hunting office and transformed it into a contemporary, clean, light studio for meditation. And she set classes for 30- and 45-minute intervals, so busy people could drop in, tune out the world and tune into themselves. “Can you meditate at home?” Yalof Schwartz asks. “Absolutely. Do I wish could? I could, but I don’t. I’m much better when I’m guided. And frankly, it’s a lot easier.” Yalof Schwartz wants to disprove the most common meditation myth: I can’t meditate because I think too much. acheter coque iphone en ligne The truth is everyone thinks too much and everyone can meditate. coque iphone pas cher It’s all about learning how to deal with those thoughts and move back to your focus point. “I’ve yet to meet anyone who has been able to stop thinking,” she says. unplug medition is a space for people who want to try out meditation and learn that they actually can do it. But it is also a great space for experienced meditators to get away from the world and be guided by exceptional teachers who understand real people. “Meditation has a host of scientifically proven benefits, yet so few people know how to do it,” Yalof Schwartz says. “I want to show everyone just how easy it is to learn, and how great it is for your mind, body and soul.” Opening April 15th, unplug meditation, 12401 Wilshire Boulevard, Studio 101, will offer daily classes at all hours, including lunchtime “quickies.” Clients can drop in and pay $20 per-class, purchase packages of 10 or 20 classes, or buy unlimited monthly memberships.

Winging with Whitehawk
Surfing the winds of change with a radically buoyant spirit.
LS Whitehawk is a lifelong questing spirit whose various modes of professional expression include writing, editing, publishing, software & web site development, group facilitation, and producing/promoting evolutionary media & events. She considers herself an agent of change primarily, and her passion is ignited by creative collaborations that resonate with the tone of this blog. 
Integrating the infusion of Spirit with form (i.e., via kundalini,spiritual emergence, and other transformative awakening orascension experiences) comprises the conceptual hub of the wheel here. A profound awakening is descending throughout our world – ready or not! Relative to this increasing merge with Spirit (higher planes & consciousness) on earth, Whitehawk’s interests include learning to gracefully negotiatekairos (the fertile moment); increasing her multisensory, multidimensional, and manifestation abilities; applying such gifts of Spirit to healing by any means available; “deep meeting,” plumbing the greater depths and heights of soular awakening, and probing the intriguing & impending galactic phenom of a dimensional shift. Also dear to her are innocents & innocence (including one’s own); animals & nature; indigenous cultures; clean green cuisine; juicy reading; exploring the quantum edge, and of course — convening with inspired friends & colleagues to ignite synapses together toward illuminating ends. Also: “laughter is carbonated holiness.” ~ Anne Lamott
Parallel Planes … Awareness of other dimensional realms began when Whitehawk was a baby; her earliest memories include leaving the crib and flying around the house. acheter coque iphone As time went on, the breadth of her OBEs (out-of-body experiences) grew to include other cities, countries, and continents; other time frames, other lifeframes, and reality systems that exist in parallel to our own. Befitting her bestowed name, she has traveled on the wings of her spirit her entire life. One of her more common journeying “themes” involves assisting souls cross over when they leave the physical plane (for an example, click here). Whitehawk believes her somewhat atypical spiritual trajectory (other-dimensional awareness in particular) has been preparing her to serve as a conduit – a passage for flow between earth and incoming energies during the penetrating, all-encompassing shift that is now live online. The sheer scope of this event is so “unimaginable,” it’s easily dismissed as lunacy by those who can’t open to the possibilities of the literal quantum leap at hand. coque iphone xs Whitehawk’s only response to this is … all water finds its level. The imminent interdimensional fusion (‘ascension’ is actually a fusion of higher frequencies with this one) is bringing tremendous and challenging change to us all. The essence of life itself is being reconfigured; evidence of this percolates throughout the universe. How these events will be perceived, received, and integrated (or not) depends upon variables including each soul’s own inclination. Whitehawk’s ideas are not for everyone. coque iphone 2019 She offers her experiences and insights to serve those who feel resonance with them, or are seeking expansion of their own parameters of consciousness. When ‘shift happens,’ she knows from experience, a seeker’s search turns to nonordinary channels for clues. Ignition: Kundalini Soon after the turn of the millennium, a lengthy, profound, and often harrowing initiation with kundalini – the transformative, electromagnetic, living & highly conscious “energy of transformation” – dominated Whitehawk’s life. This mysterious and powerful force of nature lies idling quietly at the base of the spine until activated by any of a variety of triggers, often associated with spiritual practices. coque iphone x Once awakened – like a power pack plugged into an unfathomable energy source – it is virtually guaranteed that one’s life will be profoundly and forever changed… which was the case here. Her reality-changing experiences and learnings via kundalini are integral to her current perceptions, and catalytic to her emergence as a voice on behalf of the massive shift underway. She now believes ‘new’ galactic energies are flowing into and through the local universe, triggering human kundalini energies by sympathetic resonance, in what amounts to a mass evolutionary ignition. [To clarify: this galactic energetic influx is real; its impact and effects on life are where observation, experience, and hypothesis come into play.] Revelations – ‘revealings’ – are moving through people from the inside (where there’s no denying something is happening), outward (to the collective) in an unprecedented evolutionary wave. This will be happening to/for many who are not prepared for such an awakening; perhaps not even aware of thepossibility in the first place. This scenario, en masse, could resemble entire populations on hallucinogens while simultaneously exhibiting a highly peculiar series of physical symptoms, even illnesses … all of which lie beyond the purview of the AMA. This is a very big, very confusing ordeal –a mass “shamanic dismemberment” of sorts. coque iphone 7 Dismemberment tends to be necessary for re-memberment (remembering the spiritual beings/aspects of the Oneness we really are) or re-creation (of integrated wholeness; a balanced life and world) to occur; this transformative event is not served by band-aides, intellectual rationalization, or denial. Fortunately, Whitehawk knew what was happening early in her kundalini activation, and received tremendous support from her Guides during the several years she spent working through it. She now understands she traveled this passage ahead of the curve to enable her to extend a helping hand to subsequent waves of others – perhaps you? – as this intricately choreographed series of events escalates over the next few years. A dance with kundalini ultimately permeates every aspect of life once it begins. The experience is extreme, profound, daunting, frightening, revelational, expansive, and ultimately the most wonderous immersion possible with divinity ~ the blissful unification, the return to unified oneness with the All. If kundalini is of interest to you, a helpful resource for your perusal might be here. Whitehawk The name Whitehawk was given directly by Spirit during a powerful meditation in the early 1990′s. coque iphone 8 Prior to this, visions of – and visits from – numerous white birds had been a recurring phenomenon, following an earlier encounter with a bird of Light on a vision quest in New Mexico in her 20′s. The understanding was given that this was a manifestation of the Holy Spirit. Whitehawk’s overall intentions are to live lightly & love largely; explore the holographic & sacred nature of reality; support & celebrate the spectrums of energy and Light now penetrating our rapidly-evolving planet, and co-create a healed world — one that works for the highest good of all. coque iphone 8 Whitehawk’s personal accounting of some of her experiences with awakened kundalini (entitled Deep Light and the Great Retruthing) appears in the anthology, Kundalini Rising: Exploring the Energy of Awakening, published by Sounds True. May your awakening be divine.
