Overview

The Men’s Study Group is a small, exclusive group for men who are serious about diving deeper into a life of purpose, power, and sexual fullness. In this 10 month program we will build from foundational practices to the deeper Tantric applications as well as new embodiment and shamanic material. Notoriously rigorous and challenging, this is not for the faint-hearted.

This program is intense, highly personalized, and extremely practical. It is dedicated to emotional, spiritual, and sexual practice as it applies to being with women and the world. You will receive one-on-one attention, group support, and in between assignments.  We will meet four times across the 10 month for a full day, with assignments, supervised self practice and group assignments in between. This group coincides with the women’s study group to create occasional opportunities for joint practice meetings.

Furthermore, becoming a member of this group automatically qualifies you for a 50% discount on all events hosted by Michaela.

This study group will be led by Michaela Boehm and Steve James.

Overview

In this Women’s Study Group we will build from foundational practices to the deeper Tantric applications, as well as new embodiment and women’s group material.

The Women’s Study Group is a small group dedicated to specific personal practice and by application only. The intent for this Women’s Group is to offer each woman the opportunity to unveil more of who she is, her gifts and closures alike. Together we will dive into the psycho-sexual realms and into areas that can only be explored in the company of great women.

True Women’s practice is non-linear and does not follow an agenda or clearly defined curriculum. There are no perfect “10 tips, or 5 steps”, it’s a winding path of unraveling and discovery. Women learn through their bodies and hearts and through praise and assimilation.

In this intense, highly personalized setting you will receive one-on-one attention, group support and monthly assignments. We will meet four times for a full day, with assignments, supervised self practice and group assignments. The focus will be emotional, spiritual and sexual practice as well as developing devotional gifts specific to each woman in the group.

This group coincides with the men’s study group to create occasional opportunities for joint practice meetings.

Furthermore, becoming a member of this group automatically qualifies you for a 50% discount on all events hosted by Michaela.

What Others Are Saying

I’ve never done any work in women only groups before. I’ve had resistance to it, activating fears of old-story feminism and anti-masculine energies. In stark contrast to any expectations i came in with the Wild Women’s workshop was by far the most intense, powerful and yet integrated experience I’ve put myself through. We were hand-held through integrating rapid and personalized transformation in every cell of our bodies. I came in a confident and open women and left more loving, more erotic and more connected than I’ve ever managed to sustain as a state of beingness and it’s held subsequently. The work has been anchored into my very essence and now i can’t wait to sign up to further work with Michaela and the team. This is world-class teaching and i feel blessed and grateful to Michaela bringing it into the world in the way she does and to have stumbled across her path. I feel a renewed and deeply supported intention to deep soul embodiment. I no longer feel alone on that journey. Emma

Dates

November 11-16, 2018

 

Overview

The Wild Woman is an archetype that represents a connection with our “wildish” nature.

This is the part of us that connects to the earth, feels the movement of tides and stars, submerges in the waters, and dances through realms of mystery.

This is the part of each woman that intuitively knows.

Our wildish nature is unique in each of us; no two women feel it alike. Yet, we all yearn to be more, move more, feel more, and be fuller and more passionate.

This experiential course is a chance to discover who your Wild Woman really is, and how she expresses herself. Through exercises, movement, dance, immersion in the Esalen baths, and art, you can discover how you express yourself as a woman and experience a deepening of your relationship to yourself and those around you.

This workshop is for women only.

Michaela is the real deal. She is a scholar, practitioner, teacher and embodiment of what she teaches. Her authenticity made it possible for me to trust her process and embrace her methodology. I would take her course again in a heartbeat. -Debbie

Location

San Jose, CA

 

Dates

October 24-28, 2018

 

Overview from SAND

For most of human history we’ve been trying to comprehend who we are through the lens of spiritual traditions. Then the Age of Enlightenment ushered in science, giving us a powerful new way to look at ourselves. New disciplines such as cognitive neuroscience, evolutionary psychology, quantum physics and genetics are delivering fascinating findings, redefining our view of reality and human nature. At the same time there is a new conversation emerging in spirituality. We are challenging the traditional view of spirituality as esoteric, transcendent and removed from daily life

This year at SAND we will be bringing together some of the brightest minds in science along with spiritual teachers from various traditions, to expand and deepen our understanding and experience of what it means to be human. Through these two lenses – of science and spirituality – we will be asking:

  • What does it means to be fully human and fully alive?
  • What can evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and psychology tell us about human behavior?
  • What are emotions, and how does trauma lodge in our bodies?
  • How does language shape the way we think and perceive reality?
  • What can we learn from the new science of psychedelics?
  • How are mathematics, physics and cosmology redefining reality?

Understanding our humanity, the very essence of who we are and how we live our lives, is one of the deepest mysteries and biggest challenges. As we move into this exploration, what emerges is a completely new relationship to our spiritual life and to our idea of what an integrated human being might look like. Embracing our humanness means including our limitations and shortcomings as well as our unlimited potential, our suffering as well as our wholeness. When our heart opens to all of it, the truth of who we are begins to shine. The spiritual search is over. There is no refuge but this moment. We become lovers of what is.

Join us for five days contemplating and celebrating our humanity!
