Dragonfly Rising: Wild Soul Embodiment
Friday September 13, 2024 2:45pm - 4:00pm MDT
This movement practice will help set the energy and intentions for the Awake Festival both personally and collectively, through allowing the body to move freely, discover energy flow, and explore sensation. A central componenet of this embodiment session is knowing there is no way to do it wrong, and that its right when it feels authentic. Inviting the mind to follow the body, rather than the other way around, can be an expansive new experience in rewilding!

FREE! Breathing through your mouth is like eating with your nose
Friday September 13, 2024 4:00pm - 4:30pm MDT
Understanding your breath and using it functionally is bigger than you think.
It effects all areas of your life from digesting, to sleeping, to energy level and consumption, your mood, your productivity, your immunity, muscle recovery, and much more. 
Functional/nose breathing isn't a few hours of breath work once in a while. This is your everyday practice. Every moment you take a breath you can make a significant difference in your well being.

And what is the best part of all of this? You’re already breathing….all you need to do is switch the way you breathe. No special tools required. Let's practice together how to breathe functionaly so you can benefit your overall being. Let's take ONE breath at a time!

Opening Ceremony "One Mind, One Body"
Friday September 13, 2024 6:15pm - 6:45pm MDT
"Let’s put hearts and minds together to see what lives we can make for our children."

- Chief Sitting Bull

Join the AWAKE Team to drop into "One Mind, One Body" to set the container for the 4th Annual AWAKE Festival. We can't wait to kick off year 4 with you!

We'll drop into the AWAKE vision together that, peaceful minds are creating a peaceful planet with AWAKE Founder, Erik Vienneau. Next you'll meet Doug Good Feather of the Lakota Tribe, who will inspire you to be part of a global movement of healing by being willing to be with our emotions as we collectively heal and come alive. He'll remind us all that there is nothing to fear, evolution is happening just as it should. We'll experience Lakota prayer to open our hearts and get into the real reason for gathering at AWAKE this year.

Next Anca will help us all tune into what is ALIVE in this sacred moment of NOW. She'll connect us to the earth through a Light Language Activation. We'll see that we are all just one facet of a beautiful Gem that is all one with Source. We'll understand that AWAKE is so much bigger than this weekend - we are part of a global awakening and transformation of energy. This is our chance to transform past karma into awakened energy... together... so we can make space for what is next.

We'll conclude the ceremony with Mr. Good Feather quoting the spirit word bringing in, story telling and song.

Meditation on identifying with our Buddha nature
Saturday September 14, 2024 8:15am - 8:45am MDT
Buddha taught that each living being has a limitless potential for perfect peace and happiness, and effortless ability to help others.  But to manifest this infinite, indestructible potential we need to start to identify with it from the beginning - to root both our meditation practice and daily life in this potential.  In addition, if we learn to see all others as their potential, as future Buddhas, we will find it very easy to extend patience, kindness, and compassion to them in any situation.
In this meditation we will get in touch with our Buddha nature, our pure potential, and spend time enjoying, identifying with, and nurturing this potential.

Saturday September 14, 2024 1:30pm - 2:00pm MDT
In this wellness talk, Carrie Varela will provide a discussion of the origins of Reiki, the meaning of Reiki and the connection between Reiki and Japanese religious and spiritual practices. Reiki is a Japanese healing art that was created during a time of great transformation in Japanese history.  

Reiki is an energy healing modality that supports physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health. Reiki connects you deeply to your spirit. It clears, aligns and heals your subtle body so your life force energy can flow in a natural way. It always helps.

We will complete the conversation with a traditional Reiki meditation which is interlinked with the five healing elements (earth, water, fire, air and either).  This meditation is meant to help you harmonize with the five elements in your body so that you can harmonize with the five elements in nature.  

Join us to gain a deeper appreciation of the origins of Reiki. Suitable for anyone new to Reiki, those who have taken a Reiki training as well as experienced Reiki practitioners.

Embody the Flow of Energy
Saturday September 14, 2024 4:15pm - 5:30pm MDT
Have you ever walked into a yoga class, settled onto your mat and felt an immediate state of peace and calm wash over you?

Or perhaps the movement of a great yoga class brought you a sense of presence that you could take with you off your mat into the rest of your week?

In a great savasana have you ever felt a radiant glow around your whole body that made you feel bright, vibrant, awake?

The subtle energy you access in yoga is called prana. Prana is your aliveness. It is often translated as the breath but this is considered to be only one of its manifestations. Prana is physical, mental, intellectual, sexual, spiritual and cosmic energy. In this class at AWAKE Festival, Carrie will share with you an understanding of how prana intrinsically moves through the body and guide you through a juicy, flowing vinyasa practice to help you embody the flow of energy. Leave this practice with greater awareness of how you can support yourself to ground, flow and align your energy in your daily life.

Transformative Breath breakthrough Experience
Saturday September 14, 2024 4:15pm - 5:30pm MDT
With roots in Shamanic breath journeys, this is a powerful data based healing system done laying down in a relaxed position and using elements of guided meditation, deep relaxation, a powerful yet gentle breath technique, healing sound, and healing touch. It encourages a theta brainwave state, which is a deeply intuitive and creative state that helps us tap into our intuition and let go of habitual thoughts and behaviors that no longer serve us. Because the process is designed to be deeply  somatic, rather than cognitive, working with the body, nervous system and subconscious, it offers an accelerated form of transformation.With repeated sessions this practice can calm the nervous system and allow people to access deep peace, higher states of consciousness, and their highest intuition.

Meditation on the dream-like nature of reality
Sunday September 15, 2024 8:15am - 8:45am MDT
According to Buddha’s teachings, the root of all our suffering - all pain and problems - lies in our misunderstanding of how things really are.  Normally we feel that the world we experience is objective, inherent, independent of our mind.  But if we check with wisdom, we will see that the world we experience is totally and completely dependent on our mind - there is no world outside of our perception of the world.  This is great news and shows that through changing our mind we can change the world - both for ourselves and others.  In this meditation we will explore the initial levels of this wisdom, paving the way for deeper understanding in the future.

Sunday September 15, 2024 1:15pm - 2:30pm MDT

Rest your body and ease your mind with 90 minutes of calming breath work and restorative shapes, accompanied by hands on craniosacral techniques. 

Our nervous system affects the way we think, feel, and behave. Relieving tension in the central nervous system promotes a feeling of well-being by eliminating pain, regulating emotions, and managing reactions. When the body relaxes and the brain slows down, stored emotions surface for healing.

What is Craniosacral Therapy?

Craniosacral Therapy (CST) is a gentle hands-on technique that uses a light touch to examine membranes and movement of the fluids in and around the central nervous system. By normalizing the environment around the brain and spinal cord, we enhance the body’s innate ability to self correct. and enhancing the body's ability to self-correct, Craniosacral Therapy is able to alleviate a wide variety of dysfunctions from chronic pain to neurological impairments, migraines, and TMJ.

Yoga Nidrā is a practice of deep relaxation, resembling guided meditation, that takes place in the liminal space between wake and sleep.  Using a series of body-awareness and brain-balancing techniques, one can transcend the conditioned mind and awaken undiscovered potential.  As the deepest levels of the mind become accessible, one can release the very seeds of tension, anxiety, unwanted habits, and self-limiting beliefs in order to reveal the underlying peace beneath them.  Often emphasized for its therapeutic applications, like alleviating stress, depression, trauma/PTSD, it ushers the practitioner into a place of expanded self-awareness where one can realize an undisturbable calm as their most essential and natural state.

Don't you carry stones in your bowl of light...We forget and remember, And we forget again, But this life is a circle, And it's coming back around, It's coming back again...Oh, creator, I can hear you thinking, This is my offering, All I'm saying is thank you"

- Trevor Hall, Bowl of Light

How we end is as important as how we began. In this experience we call AWAKE Festival I hope you will have dropped away your worldly stresses and concerns and feel that you are now centered in the truth of who you are - authentic, peaceful and free.

As you go back into the world it's normal to have a few days of bliss and balance. Then something happens to trigger your old "pre-fest" patterns. If we get hooked by these old, self-limiting thoughts we'll go back into the same old cycles. This is normal but there is a way to re-enter the world more skillfully and maintain the peace you've returned to this weekend.

In this closing ceremony you'll receive heartfelt advise from the AWAKE Leadership team on skillful re-entry and integration. You'll also be held and supported by the inspired lyrics and sound of John Brewster that you can take with you as you say your goodbyes and head off peacefully and safely home.
