MEDITATION AND CONTEMPLATION

“Practicing stilling the mind and focusing on the breath and Dantian. With the understanding that meditation fuels the cauldron, electrifies the heart, and awakens the third eye, we drop beneath the realm of emotion as a pathway to diamond consciousness. By embodying the ways of the Bodhisattva and Buddha, we recognize that both the feeling and contemplative paths are necessary for self-realization.”
— Jennifer Millar, 2022

The Cellular Transformation Teaching Program consists of 9 fundamental principles. These 9 principles are synergistically connected, relating to and depending upon one another as an expression of one living body of wisdom. Nevertheless, in order to absorb and integrate them, we take each one on its own and focus intently on its vital role and function within the transformational process. We do this in a community setting to both utilize our environment for substantial learning purposes and to accelerate the process by virtue of mutual effort and intent.

MEDITATION AND CONTEMPLATION

In the eighth module of the CT Teaching Program, we learn to use the power of stillness, silence, emptiness, and visualization to integrate the power of the transformational process. We recognize that both the feeling and contemplative paths are necessary for self-realization. Meditation serves as the glue that binds the work of the nine principles together.

WHAT WE WILL EXPLORE

• Traditional Mindfulness Meditation: observing the mind; concentrating on the breath, heart, and hara; no self.

• Cultivating the good use of ‘lesser mind’: focusing on the light; serving ‘greater mind’.

• Dropping beneath emotion; letting go of processing; not getting hooked.

• The transformational process diagram: how and why meditation nurtures our integrated whole self; the final furlong on our way home.

• “Getting off the horse” (stepping off the merry-go-round of samsara): letting go of self, structure, teacher, time, meditation, spirit, and enlightenment.

• The essential relationship between feeling and contemplation, psychotherapy and meditation: why both are necessary to awaken the integrated whole self.

• Overprocessing and spiritual by-pass.

• Radical acceptance of who we are and where we’re at in this moment: we are already awake, perfect in our imperfections.

• Meditation.

WHAT TO EXPECT

This module is a 1-week immersive residential process. We dive into the theoretical teachings of the principle supported by an experiential structure consisting of CT Healing Circles, meditation, psycho-spiritual inquiries, private sessions, bodywork and movement, somatic release, and other practices. The structure will, above all else, be determined by the flow of energy and what is needed in the field.

You will be staying and participating in DIMA’s community center. The community center not only serves as a safe container but also accelerates the integration of the Cellular Transformation Process. We will be creating and holding space together for the entire week (both during the group work and within the community household).

Arrival day is on Wednesday (Sept 27th), with the program commencing on Thursday morning and finishing on Tuesday evening (Oct 4th).

THE FACILITATORS

The modules will be facilitated by a team of experienced and dedicated facilitators. Jennifer will be working closely with Kanika and the team throughout the year but will not be physically present during the modules. The facilitators will also be participating as students of the modules, as well as in the community center. We are all teachers to each other and are truly committed to walking the talk. We dedicate ourselves to creating a safe and confidential space in which each individual feels enough trust to open up to the magic of the Cellular Transformation Process. If you haven’t participated in a CT workshop with Jennifer Millar before, you must schedule a private session with one of the CT Teaching Program Facilitators as a prerequisite to participate in one or more of the modules.

PREREQUISITES

• The modules are residential. Please commit to staying in DIMA for the entire week.

• We ask that you don’t consume any alcohol or drugs during the modules and for 4 days prior to and after the modules.

• Since the tendency to distract ourselves strengthens during intense processes, we ask that you follow the suggestions given by the facilitators regarding times of silence, limited time on the internet, or particular food intake.

• We are acutely aware that the ego comes up with a myriad of excuses to sabotage growth and healing (even manifesting situations to prevent you from following through with your commitment to this program), so we are asking for a registration deposit of €300 that is non-refundable, 30 days prior to the start of the module. (In case of cancellation beyond 30 days, you will be refunded in full minus an admin fee of €50).

• We ask for your flexibility. The schedule might change depending on the group's needs, energy, and circumstances. Opening up to the mystery is our guiding principle, so being flexible and welcoming the unpredictable is part of the journey.
