This workshop, the first in a series on taboo, will focus on sex, sexuality, sexualities. We will be exploring and embodying taboo topics through the vehicles of creative expression: art, poetry, movement, sound. Morning sessions will be engagement in experiential creative expression and afternoons will be an opportunity to process and integrate in small groups. Thursday evening will start with the creation of a safe ritual container for our time together. Monday evening will be integration and ritual closing.

"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."

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.
