Transformative Meditation 3: The Way of the Future

There have been prophecies that our future is to build group channels for energy distribution, based on what has been achieved in the past. Within the power, safety and balancing effect of our group we use the energies we have refined earlier in the course to develop experience in layers of group consciousness. We learn practices that use our own growth and expansion to foster evolving consciousness in the world.

Topics include:
• Sensing physical and energy bodies.
• Detecting energy qualities through meditation.
• Sandpile exercise to access astral awareness
• Chakra rotation to find the ‘sweet spot’
