Explore the dynamic tension between the peace and well-being of infinite consciousness and the wild, raw rub of material reality, and how to leverage this tension to deepen your awakening process.
Some questions we might digest together include:
- What is Life asking of you right now?
- What are your habits of avoiding or resisting Life's invitation?
- How might you access the deep well of peace at your core, even in the midst of madness and heartbreak, virus-induced or otherwise?
- What alchemy awaits you at the heart of your experience?

In Memory of CJ Mortinson
Our community lost a dear friend in CJ Mortinson when she died on November 11, 2019. CJ started attending Olympia Trillium events in February this year. She jumped in with both feet while at the same time speaking about her hesitation and reluctance to believe Trillium could be all it promised. She would routinely ask, "Are you people for real?" It meant a lot to her to have the recognition that she was significantly changed by her involvement in Trillium. The way she described it, she "woke up brand new" and got to know herself all over again.
Those who got to spend time with CJ remember her most for her sense of humor. She could quip a one liner that cut to the essence of a discussion or lesson. She was humble and yet very wise.
CJ was aware that her health problems were life threatening and she very much wanted to live. She had plans for her business and her Trillium path. She was intimately involved in raising her grandchildren and longed to see them grow to adulthood. CJ had a trust in Being that carried her along in life and no doubt was with her to the end. Her legacy will carry on in her grandchildren and in the many lives she touched in her business and personal lives. She is and will be sorely missed in our community.

Celebrating our new Interning Teacher!
Kirstin Eventyr was "ordained" in June, 2019 through unanimous vote by the Trillium Awakening Teachers Circle, and we are so lucky to have even more of her brilliance and skill available to serve our collective awakening!
Kirstin, a long-time counselor, teacher, and energy healer, and one of the founding members of Trillium Olympia, brings exceptional depth and breadth to everything she does. She is skillful at holding space, supporting nuanced inquiry, and creating transformative learning environments. Her embodied, full-hearted, full-on, nature is grounded and real, yet fluid and responsive and balanced with a robust sense of humor and humility.
Kirstin is a fierce advocate for the tender, messy, dignified magnificence of being one's Self, and is a true gift to all who choose to work with her.

Honoring our new mentor!
Debi Bailey recently completed all the training requirements and the lengthy application process to become a Trillium Awakening mentor, and was unanimously voted in by the Trillium Awakening Teachers Circle in early August 2018!
A warm and wide heart, generous nature, and commitment to serving others are among Debi's many gifts. Her years as a parenting educator and certified counselor have honed her capacity to be with others in a deep and supportive way. We appreciate her stepping forward into more leadership in the Olympia community, and and look forward to watching her grow and flourish in her new role of supporting spiritual aspirants.

In Memory of John Tatman
Our dearly beloved friend and companion in awakening passed away on Tuesday afternoon, October 17, 2017. John found Trillium Olympia in late March, 2014, and quickly blossomed in the radical acceptance and unconditional love that our community practices. He came to know himself as the all encompassing and infinite Heart of Love, and his radiance glowed increasingly strongly in his last months of life. John blessed us with his room-illuminating smile and big bear hugs. We miss him, and will love him forever.
