Core Evolution^®

Come with an open mind and an open heart, and allow consciousness to meet you where you are.

Across cultures and throughout history, humans have reported subtle perceptual capacities—deep intuition, nonlocal connection, and heightened sensitivity to energy and emotion—that extend beyond ordinary awareness. While such experiences were once considered natural aspects of being human, modern education and cultural conditioning have often narrowed perception, privileging only what can be measured and easily explained. In the process, many people may have lost access to dimensions of awareness that remain quietly present within them.

Drawing on decades of clinical work, interdisciplinary research, and personal exploration, Diane Hennacy and Siegmar Gerken offer an experiential approach to expanded consciousness that emphasizes embodiment, emotional coherence, and nervous-system regulation. Rather than relying on mental effort or concentration, participants are guided to attune deeply to body, breath, sensation, feeling, and heart—forming an integrated Body–Feeling–Mind Field.

Within this unified field of awareness, intuitive and so-called “extra-ordinary” perceptions often arise spontaneously—not as special abilities to be forced or performed, but as natural expressions of coherence, presence, and connection. This workshop does not ask participants to adopt any particular belief system; instead, it invites direct experience, self-inquiry, and integration.

Through guided practices, dialogue, and gentle somatic exploration, participants will explore how expanded awareness can be accessed safely and meaningfully—and how it may be integrated into everyday life, relationships, creativity, and service.

Join us for a transformative weekend of embodied exploration, community, and remembrance of the vast potential of human consciousness.
