Meditation into Wholeness: The Art of Relaxing the Thinking Mind with June Konopka
It’s easy to go into meditation with the intention of improving your situation, or changing something about our reality.

This often creates the space within that’s needed to integrate the challenges…
Embodied Consciousness Meditation with Sanji Hills
We invite you to join Trillium Teacher Sanji Hills in a meditative exploration of embodied experience as a route to consciousness.

Gravity Meditation with Steve Boggs
Gravity is an attractive force present throughout the universe drawing everything into closer communion. Embodied awakening is an apprenticeship to love–we fall into it.

Nurturing Our Capacity to Hold Meditation with Denise Gallagher
These unusual times are calling each of us to deepen our capacity to “hold” ourselves, others and current events. In the Trillium dharma, holding is defined as being in Presence with something or someone with heartfelt support for the other as they are. There’s a way in which this definition engages the three petals of the Trillium teaching. In…

The Quiet Corner of the Ardent Heart: A Guided Meditation with Steve Boggs
“There’s a quiet corner of every human heart that longs for release from continual pressure at the heart of their spiritual quest: a restless quiet hunger that there must be something more than all of this.” This meditation starts from that quiet corner, the start of your spiritual quest, “the sacramental impulse that has shaped…

Dragon’s Heart: Love’s Only Sacrifice Meditation with Bill Miller
In some traditions, the Dragon is a creature that is comfortable in any environment. Like us, whatever the world she’s in, she is what she is, and she has to be able to respond.

Mutuality Discussion with Fax Gilbert
In Trillium Awakening, Mutuality is the key to relatedness. A common misunderstanding is that it means getting along. In actuality, it means that we are able to stand in our own truth while allowing the other to do the same. This requires several key factors: mutual respect, vulnerability, the realization that knowing is always partial,…
Embodied Presence Meditation with Cielle Backstrom
Join Trillium Awakening teacher Cielle Backstrom in the present moment for an “Awareness Tune-up.” As we awaken, three major energy centers start to come alive.

It’s something that’s filled with mystery…
