The mystery of the soul has captivated humanity throughout time. In this new conversation, Aviv Shahar and Portalsfriends continue exploring The Soul's Journey, now delving into the enigma of spontaneous healing. This live event weaves contemplations, soul dialogue, music, and visual expression. The invitation is to slow down and release the pressure to instantly agree or disagree. Instead, allow space to gently listen to the soul's subtle, quiet voice. The soul's knowledge is immense, largely untapped. By uplifting the meaning of “knowledge” beyond conventional learning, we begin to perceive the self and the soul as distinct yet deeply interwoven: the self as the "choice-making you," and the soul as the intelligent companion forever tethered to infinite creativity and all knowledge. Eight core soul premises serve as perceptual gateways, inviting deeper recognition of the soul's role and subtle influence as it nudges us forward with the capacity to mediate the uncertainty of a new epoch and an unknown future. Spontaneous healing is one such soul capacity — rare, mysterious, and historically documented. The soul already works as healer, and has the potential to access the knowledge to bridge to higher energies and intelligence that are faster than the planetary speeds of conventional healing. Can we release the pains of our yesterdays to create space for such renewal? If we don't trust the intelligence of the soul and the natural systems we're part of, how can they deliver capabilities beyond the known? What mindset, energy, and connections are needed to open the gate to this higher possibility? Significant opportunities: Create space to release the pressure of having to agree or disagree and open to the soul's natural rhythm. Discover a wider intelligence that transcends conditioned ideas of learning. Recognize the agency of the self and how the soul supports our alignment with higher intelligence to help us mediate change, especially in times of great uncertainty. Ask: What is spontaneous healing? What blocks it? What inner gateways open it? This conversation is part of the continuing Portals discovery into what is emerging on the frontiers of human experience in this time of profound change. Information about upcoming special events can be found on the Events page. Also visit and subscribe to our YouTube channel. TWEETABLE QUOTES “The Soul reads the subtle, energetic properties of everything. So every sound, every color, every object, every shape, every internal feeling, every registration of the environment, all of those, each and every one of those dimensions and elements, they carry knowledge. Every word carries knowledge, but it's not just a word; it's the intonation, it's the sound. So when we say the Soul is intimately connected with all the knowledge that exists on the planet, we are inferring the full range is available by potential for the Soul.” (Aviv) “What does it feel like when you embrace this idea that there is a part of you, an intelligence loom within you, an intelligence loom that accompanies you all the days of your life, including when you are asleep, never leaves you without, affords you all that you know to do, supports you every moment of your life, and that it has all that you may need to encounter the challenges in front of you?” (Aviv) RESOURCES MENTIONED Portals of Perception Website Aviv's LinkedIn Aviv's Twitter Aviv's Website Spontaneous Healing – Event Part 2: The Soul's Journey In Between Epochs

How can we bring the whole human intelligence to strengthen and steady us as we navigate an epochal shift? In this engaging workshop, through inquiry and ground-breaking insights, Aviv Shahar and a group of international friends explore the story of the soul alongside the unfolding story of the evolving epoch. Movement, music, painting and drawing are shared as live, experimental methodologies to liberate our unique inner capacities. Beginning with a summary of Chapters 1–6 of Portals into the Soul, the workshop opens the challenging invitation to attune to the greater versatility of one's soul. At its core, the premise is a calling to the human family to re-engage the soul as a vital force in our time. Rather than offering answers, the invitation is to live into the inquiry. Within each of us, one part may be dying while another is being born anew. Participants' contributions illuminate this inner panorama, revealing that what we see happening in the world is also stirring within us. As we come to see that the energy crisis is not only planetary but also a concern of the soul — expressed in inner fragmentation, fatigue, and the depletion of human faculties — the search for greater intactness and soul range becomes a path to renewed vitality. This awakening can unlock inner resources to meet the demands of our time. In the face of a global leadership breakdown, the soul's journey calls us to step into a deeper initiation, toward becoming fully self-arising, self-responsible, and self-directing beings. True self-leadership emerges as essential for personal growth and for navigating transformative times. How do we engage in three essential tasks at once: release the conditioning of the old epoch and its operating system, embrace the liminal transition into the unknown, and facilitate liberation in the emerging epoch? The meta-crisis is not merely a problem to solve, but an expression and symptom of an epochal transition. What triggers chronic conflict in humans and what could enable deep settlement, peace, and well-being? How do we discover and cultivate the inner technologies that support process leadership? What we need now are process catalysts and facilitators of emergence. We are tenderly hospice-ing a dying epoch and caringly midwifing the birth of a new one — not only in the world around us, but within ourselves. This sensibility is arising in many people who feel called to this threshold. This conversation is part of the continuing Portals discovery into what is emerging on the frontiers of human experience in this time of profound change.

TWEETABLE QUOTES “Any crisis point you can describe, and look at, on the world stage, has an interior dimension that mirrors it, that we can frame by way of an inquiry that is a Soul concern. So we'll abide with that for a bit, and there again, the inquiry will be, okay, what is it that we are observing that we can do, individually and collectively, to help facilitate the Soul to be more fully resilient, and all of us as people, wherever we find ourselves?” (Aviv) “Part of the awareness in this is that we cannot make the transition from one epoch to the next just with our heads, just with concepts. We actually need the whole human person, the full inner orchestra, the inner lives, all the faculties, all the capabilities, all the talents, all the intelligence lines to participate in the discovery.” (Aviv) RESOURCES MENTIONED Portals of Perception Website Aviv's LinkedIn Aviv's Twitter Aviv's Website Navigating the Shift – Event Part 1: The Soul's Journey In Between Epochs
