64 - Judith Blackstone: The Realization Process

For millennia the wisdom keepers of various traditions have espoused the merit of awakening - of realizing our true nature - generally through shunning the body. But what if awakening could happen through the body? In this episode with Judith Blackstone, a somatic psychotherapist and nondual teacher, we look at how trauma-release can go hand in hand with spiritual awakening, how subtle sensing forges connection and healing, and how we as coaches can tune into our client’s experience without needing to feel it in our own bodies. Judith Blackstone, PhD, is a somatic psychotherapist and nondual teacher who developed the Realization Process, a method of embodied psychological and relational healing and nondual spiritual awakening. She is the author of Trauma and the Unbound Body, Belonging Here, The Enlightenment Process, The Intimate Life and The Empathic Ground and is the co-founder of the Nonduality Institute.
