Podcast appearances and mentions of judith blackstone

On this week's episode, I was fortunate enough to sit down with the founder of the Realization Process, Judith Blackstone, PhD. Combining her 35 years of private practice as a psychotherapist and deep spiritual investigations as a meditator and dancer, Judith has refined an incredible process of nondual spiritual awakening which she now shares with other practitioners. She is also an author of several books including ‘Trauma and the Unbound Body: the Healing Power of Fundamental Consciousness', ‘The Intimate Life', and ‘The ‘Enlightenment Process'. Her most recent book, ‘The Fullness of the Ground: A Guide to Embodied Spiritual Awakening' released in the fall of 2023 and is available wherever you get your books. In this conversation, we explore the outline of how the Realization Process works. Namely what Nondual Spiritual Awakening is and how we can incorporate it into a therapeutic model. It's a conversation that focuses heavily on the theme of embodiment and the nature of constriction with an introduction to the method of releasing those constrictions so we can be more expansive. If you want to check out Judith's work, head on over to RealizationProcess.org or pick up some of her books from your online retailer of choice! Show Topics - What is Nonduality? - Is Nonduality Inherent or Cultivated? - The Obscurations of Nonduality - How do we Embody Nonduality? - Making Contact with Ourselves - Relating to Challenging Situations - Top Down vs Bottom Up Psychological Approaches - Does Nonduality Mean “I” Disappear? - Nonduality in a Therapeutic Context - Fundamental Consciousness and Core Breath - The Nature of Constrictions - The Experience of Fundamental Consciousness

I'm joined by Judith Blackstone. Judith has 35 years experience as a psychotherapist and teacher of the realization process, a direct path for realizing fundamental consciousness, as well as the application of nondual realization for psychological, relational and physical healing. She currently has seven books in publication, including her latest, The Fullness of the Ground: A Guide to Embodied Spiritual Awakening. Judith explains the importance of inhabiting the body and developing a strong connection to the core, to integrate the fullness of the self, cultivate wholeness, and connect deeply to life, rather than dissociate or numb through misguided attempts at transcendence. We discuss the value of modalities such as talking therapy, somatic work, and meditation, the risks of catharsis, maintaining boundaries as consciousness expands, as well as subtle distinctions between non-dual awareness and energetic dimensions.

We discuss the unique path of awakening and internal growth.

Let yourself relax into yourself through this guided meditation inspired by Judith Blackstone's book, Belonging Here: A Guide for the Spiritually Sensitive Person. Presented by Bill Epperly, this technique enables you to pull yourself back into a witnessing stance where you can be at ease in your body when it feels like you're trying too hard to accomplish something.

Dr. Laura starts the show by talking about the profound experience psychedelics and plant-based medicine have had on her life. She then welcomes facilitator and guide Reanna Costa to the episode. Reanna talks about her path to becoming a “midwife” in all senses of the word, where she helps people birth whatever it is they need to and helps let go of whatever is holding them back. She talks with Laura about creating a space for safety and trust in her work, how the ego can show up in our healing, why we need to move at our own pace, how to unwind and rewire the subtle layers of tension that keep us locked in old patterns and the effect plant-based medicine has on our brain.   What You'll Hear In This Episode: How trauma imprints on us and gets stuck in our bodies. Powerful ways to release trauma and get into an altered state of consciousness. How our ego gets in the way of our healing and why we don't want to push too hard when doing self-work. How Reanna defines trauma and how plant-based medicine can potentially help us get out of the story we tell ourselves and find new perspectives. Reanna talks about the way somatic therapy unwinds the stress and trauma response. Reanna shares the names of a few of the healers that have influenced her, such as Judith Blackstone. Healing is an inside job, yet we also need the help of others to get through it. Reanna explains the sacred nature behind the ceremonies she facilitates and what to potentially expect at a plant-based ceremony. Reanna and Dr. Laura dive into why sacred reciprocity is so important to receive life's blessings.   Quotes: “Trauma is essentially anything that we're not able to be present for.” — Reanna “There's so much of the human experience that is unprocessed.” — Reanna “Anything that has the power to heal also has the power to harm.” — Reanna “If someone's psyche or nervous system is not ready to move through something, there's a possibility of retraumatizing.” — Reanna “I feel that one of my gifts is patience: working slowly and having time for the person to gain trust.” — Reanna “When you're ready, your healer or teacher will present itself.” — Dr. Laura “It's such a habit to not be compassionate with self. It's such a habit to betray ourselves and turn away from ourselves.” — Dr. Laura   Take Dr. Laura's Free Quiz! — What's your Divine Feminine Sovereign Style?

“Ultimately, I think for anybody who is struggling, just find that tiny bit of spark, that little bit of hope, and hold onto it.” ~Natalie LeSueur There’s no better way to end this ____(insert your fave adjective here)___ year than hanging with Natalie LeSueur and me for Part II of our conversation. If you’ve not yet listened to Part I, go back! Get acquainted with this luminous lady and then join us for our high-vibin’ finale!  “I think for most of my life, I didn't want to be here. I didn't have a place. I didn't feel safe,” Natalie explains, retracing her journey from abused child to breathwork, embodiment, and yoga teacher - a healer born from multiple complex hurts. The aching familiarity of her story affirms one of my favorite NARM truisms: we instinctively want to move toward healing. And we keep trudging onward until we find our beacon.  Natalie knows what it’s like to bob alone on rough seas. These days she shines her light so others can find their way, holding safe space online, a format that’s offered some unexpected benefits in terms of quieting and creating. Natalie invites everyone to develop a daily sacred practice that we can live with, shedding preconceived notions of how one “should” approach such things. Move, breathe, sit in silence; the mechanics are unimportant. What matters, says Natalie, is the intention: rooting down into yourself and integrating the majestic and the mess residing inside all of us.  If you recognize that invitation as a return to the divine feminine, you’re right! This is a balancing balm for the overwhelming masculinity that’s ruled these last few years. It’s time we course-corrected to calmer waters. May we all take Natalie’s suggestion and cultivate a more integrated approach to our healing in the New Year. May we all follow her example and project our gifts outward.  Thank you for your love, your support, and your spirit this last twelve months! About Natalie: I am an adoptee.

“I really feel like I not only deserve love, but I am love. I really am.” ~Natalie LeSueur The brilliant, wise-hearted Natalie LeSueur of The Light Collective is many things: mother, breathwork teacher, intuitive… the list is extensive. Natalie’s also a survivor of complex psychological and sexual trauma. I’m grateful for her honesty and willingness to share her multi-layered experience. To that end, for listeners who are feeling fragile with this type of content, please take care of yourself first. Bookmark this episode for a later date; we’ll be here when you’re ready.  In this first of our two-part conversation, Natalie and I discuss her adolescent traumas and how she finally found support on her journey to becoming a source of light for others. Her healing is centered on the belief that inner work evolves rather than finishes. It’s a lesson which circles back to the connectedness in all things: science and survival; client and therapist; podcaster and listener. “I just really liked listening to how people arrive where they are, I suppose, and then there is this really lovely honesty about it because I think we just all need to get a little real.”    About Natalie: I am an adoptee.

"We actually can know ourselves beyond the momentary flux of our disparate sensations, feelings, thoughts and perceptions. We can know the knower, or more accurately, the knower can know him or herself." - Judith Blackstone Judith Blackstone, PhD, is an innovative teacher and author in the contemporary fields of nondual realization and spiritual, relational and somatic psychotherapy. Over the past four decades she has developed and taught the Realization Process, a direct path for realizing fundamental (nondual) consciousness, as well as its application in psychological, relational and physical healing. The Realization Process teaches that we can enter a subtle pervasive consciousness from deep within our own bodies. We can experience the unified ground of our individual being, and  experience it pervading everything in our environment. In other words, we get to know our own individual wholeness at the same time as we transcend ourselves. Central to this approach is the conviction that we all have access to an inner source of well-being that helps us heal when we embody ourselves fully. Judith's career as a professional dancer began at age 9. For a decade and a half she pursued this path as a highly trained modern dancer -- until an injury shattered her back and her lifelong dream with it. She sought help from a series of doctors, alternative healers, and body workers but found little recourse. Then one day, lying on her back on the floor of her NYC loft, in a state of prayerful grief, and desperation, Judith turned her attention deeply inward, looking for "the key that might free me from this seemingly insurmountable situation." Remarkably, she found it. It began with the discovery that simply by releasing her weight to the ground, subtle currents of energy could be felt arising from the floor, moving her body organically towards balance.  From earliest childhood Judith had felt the sense of a numinous presence around her, and longed to bring it closer. Her experience in the NYC loft was a first taste of that presence within. Other experiences followed. She taught her dance students what she was learning about the subtler aspects of the body, and witnessed their radiant ripening as they began to fully inhabit their bodies. Some time later, sitting by a creek, during a year in residency at a Zen monastery, Judith entered a realm of experience she refers to as fundamental consciousness, or, "the ground of being" -- a direct experience of a transparent space-like presence pervading not just her body, but her environment and everything in it. In further explorations she discovered that this realization could be stabilized through a series of specific practices. To Judith this isn't an esoteric or highly advanced realization, but one that she maintains is very accessible, "Pretty much everyone I teach is able, with some practice, to realize this."  Her most recent book, Trauma and the Unbound Body: The Healing Power of Fundamental Consciousness (2018), speaks to the profound implications of this work. In it, she speaks of inhabiting the body as "a kind of reclaiming of ourselves." Because fundamental consciousness is deeper than any of the events, memories or emotions of trauma, when we attune to it, we establish deep contact with our underlying wholeness and reclaim the universal qualities of our being -- the qualities of love, power, voice, understanding, and gender/sexuality (each with a specific felt sense to it). In the face of traumatic events, these qualities are often suppressed, and constrict along with corresponding parts of our physical anatomy. For healing, it is crucial to release these constrictions and regain these lost qualities.  The Realization Process teaches specific practices to inhabit the whole body, attune to its central channel (that runs through the head, torso and pelvis), and open to fundamental consciousness. It also includes specific practices for discerning, and releasing along the exact pathways that we have constricted ourselves in response to traumatic events.  Judith's formal credentials include a Masters’ Degree in Transpersonal Psychology and a PhD in Psychology, Eastern Religion and Embodiment. She trained at the Institute for Integrative Psychotherapy in New York City. She has 35 years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist and is now retired from private practice. Her essays have been published in a wide array of reputed journals, and her other books include Belonging Here: A Guide for the Spiritually Sensitive Person; The Enlightenment Process; The Intimate Life; The Subtle Self and The Empathic Ground. A six-CD audio series of Judith explaining and teaching the Realization Process is available from Sounds True.  Along with her husband Zoran Josipovic, Judith is co-founder of the Nonduality Institute, a nonprofit dedicated to the scientific study of nondual awareness which contributes to the understanding of the nature of human consciousness and the brain’s functioning in optimal states of well-being. In addition to Zen, Judith has received teachings in the Mahamudra and Dzog-chen paths of Tibetan Buddhism, and has also studied in India with several teachers from Hindu traditions (Advaita Vedanta, Bhakti and Kashmir Shaivism). She does not view herself as a guru of any kind, and is clear that the Realization Process practices themselves are not situated within a specific traditional lineage. In Judith's experience, her main teacher "has been nature -- the subtle emanations from all living forms, the challenges presented by a severe back injury, the natural unwinding, in meditation, of the body, heart and mind toward openness, and the spontaneous emergence of fundamental consciousness." Over the decades she has taught numerous workshops and teacher certification trainings across the United States and Europe. During this current pandemic, Judith continues to offer trainings and retreats online that are often booked to capacity.

Certified embodiment coach, Priscilla Rodgers, helps her clients release childhood trauma and live a more sensual life through her guided treatments, which incorporate self-massage and breathwork. She joins us today to teach us how to tap into our sensate body to heal ourselves and to experience our sensuality. We wished we had these tools our whole life. She also shares all about her new course focused on racial trauma, oppression and the body. Topics We Discuss: Trauma Sensuality Proprioception In the Episode, We Learn: About the internal senses and what happens when they are suppressed. Why trauma stays in your body when you are a child if you were not taught how to release it. She uses a combination of breathwork and massage in her trauma release treatments. Techniques that help you tap into our senses. How we can use our internal felt senses and proprioception to find presence. About the power centers of the body that she focuses on when releasing trauma. What a trauma release treatment with her is like. About the barriers to sensuous living. About her upcoming course on racial trauma, oppression and the body in October. How staying in your head can be a defense mechanism to prevent you from processing trauma.

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.

As we make deep contact with the internal space of our body, we connect with our essential nature. We realize our authentic self as vast, clear, unbounded space. The more fully we open to the absolute stillness of this fundamental consciousness, the more freely the movement of life takes place. Non-dual realization is an actual transformation of our being, not just a change in our beliefs. It's not that we know non-duality. It is that we are non-duality. –Judith Blackstone, Realization Process founder In this episode, Valeria Teles interviews Michael Lydon. Michael is a Realization Process Advanced practitioner. Realization Process is a form of body-focused meditation for spiritual growth, transformative healing, and embodied wholeness.

For our conversation today we are joined by guest Judith Blackstone, who also was one of our mentors. Judith Blackstone, PhD is an innovative teacher in contemporary spirituality. She developed the Realization Process, an embodied approach to personal and relational healing and nondual realization. She is author of several books, including her latest work Trauma and the Unbound Body. In our talk we speak about a subtle field of awareness within each of us that Judith calls Fundamental Consciousness. We cover how traumatic experiences are unconsciously bound into constrictions in our bodies, limiting both our personal expression and our experience of wholeness, as well as how when we discover ourselves as FC we can experience ourselves as an unbreakable, unified ground of being. Of course we also speak about how the Realization process has changed both of our lives, and how these practices can mean the end of objectification and co-dependency.

In this episode, we discuss: Embodied nonduality – Judith’s definition of embodiment and nonduality Fundamental features of the Realization Process and the 2 main exercises (inhabiting the whole body and tuning into the subtle vertical channel) Her new book Trauma and the Unbound Body Realization Process techniques that contribute to trauma work Importance of inhabiting the body and the space of consciousness before releasing trauma Judith Blackstone, PhD, 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. An audio series of the Realization Process is available from Sounds True. For information on Judith's teaching schedule, visit www.realizationprocess.org.

Judith Blackstone is a pioneering teacher of contemporary spirituality best known for developing The Realization Process, a direct path toward nondual awakening. With Sounds True, she has most recently published the book Trauma and the Unbound Body. In this episode of Insights at the Edge, Tami Simon speaks with Judith about applying The Realization Process to the healing process—whether it's physical, relational, or psychological. They discuss the Process's application to unprocessed trauma—especially how fully inhabiting the body can highlight long-term physical constrictions. Tami and Judith talk about the methods for releasing that constriction, as well as the difference between awareness of the body and inhabiting it. Finally, Judith leads listeners in a core breath practice for settling into the body and attuning to the fundamental consciousness that is always available to us. (57 minutes) Tami's Takeaway: As part of our conversation about "disentangling the constrictions" that are held in the body as a result of trauma, Judith Blackstone teaches one of the central practices of The Realization Process—the Core Breath Practice. This is a powerful technique for quickly entering the subtle core of the body (a vertical channel that is described in many spiritual traditions). Once we enter this subtle core, we have a powerful resource available to us for releasing traumatic experiences held in the body. The takeaway: do the Core Breath Practice regularly as a way to stay in deep inward contact and "unbind the body."

Today’s episode is a little different! This episode is actually an interview with Judith Blackstone, the founder of The Realization Process- which Vanessa and I both became certified in this spring. I did this interview originally over on my other show, Liberated Body. If you haven’t discovered her work, allow me to introduce Judith to you. She is the creator of The Realization Process, which is an integrated approach to embodiment, psychological, relational, physical healing, and spiritual awakening. Judith is a clinical psychologist and a meditation practitioner and student of contemplative traditions with more than 40 years of experience. She is the author of several books including Belonging Here and The Enlightenment Process, and she is also the co-founder of the Non-Duality Institute which is dedicated to the science and practice of non-duality. In this conversation we’re talking about “the issues in the tissues”, or how emotional pain gets bound in the body- and also how it can be released, what fundamental consciousness is and why it’s useful to attune to it, how your experience of gravity and your fluidity of movement changes with this embodiment work, what happens when people bypass their stuck emotional pain, and how this work can help what I call the “senseys” of the world- the empaths- to do their work and to live fully without feeling overwhelmed much of the time.
