"In response to the killing of George Floyd, and the recognition that he is just the latest of hundreds of years of lives sacrificed on the altar of white supremacy, racism and violence, Olympia's Trillium Awakening teachers stand with Black Lives Matter. Our three fold path holds within it the intrinsic recognition of:

Consciousness — Our True Nature is One with all beings regardless of skin color, economic status, ability, and other marginalized qualities.

Embodiment —  Our embodied hearts break for the ongoing pain and suffering inflicted upon all people of color and for our role in causing this pain. We acknowledge action must be taken to change how oppression operates within in ourselves and within our society. 

Mutuality — Our deeply held value of mutuality compels us to devote our energy to continually educate our selves, listen deeply to people of color (and to members of other marginalized groups), and take action to create change as we are each uniquely moved. 

We dedicate our actions to our continued awakening and the awakening of humanity. This inevitably includes awakening to our own and society’s racism and other categories of embedded oppression."

Written by Margit Bantowsky, Joanne Lee and Kirstin Eventyr
Honoring our newest, but not so new mentor!
Picture
Jim Hutcheon 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 March 2021!

A warm and wide heart, generous nature, and commitment to serving others are among Jim's many gifts. His years as a college professor and service on the Board of Directors of the Olympia Food Co-op have honed his leadership skills. He has been serving the Olympia TA community as our Lead Link as well as in various other leadership roles. He has a deep capacity to be with others in a supportive way. We appreciate him stepping forward into this new role, and and look forward to watching him grow and flourish as a mentor. 

Honoring our mentor!
Picture
Debi Bailey 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 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.
