Who We AreInspiration Community was founded by Jessica Dibb, Spiritual Leader and Facilitator. In 1983, Jessica started to facilitate classes and intensives, including "Celebrating Life" and "Awakening." In 1985, Jessica started calling these trainings and ritual celebrations "The Inspiration Community."Over the next few years the curriculum expanded, calling to increasing numbers of people who were also seeking stimulating ways to awaken and heal authentic selves. The fundamental principle of these studies is the love filled commitment to realize potential awakened status and essential life in order to respect ourselves, our relationships, and planet earth in complete harmony. These classes have come to be known as the Inspiration Mystery School. In 1989, some people from the courses and intensives came together to form the "Inspiration Visionary Collective." They wanted to contribute to and co-direct pathways for the principles of the trainings to be experienced in activities integral to daily life. They wanted to be of service to anyone who was looking for community fostered around conscious living lifestyle habits. This group of people has come to be known as the Inspiration Community.

What's New (cont.)It is vital that individuals doing service work in the world continue to evolve their capacity for self-awareness, wholeness, and actualization. This balance and flow between inner transformation, which is best supported by doing both solo and group practice, and helping others in their journeys is an important and pivotal part of being a fully flowered human being. Here at Inspiration we have become even more committed to encouraging all of our students in cultivating their life journeys with this balance. Whether we are working with first-time students or those who have been journeying with us for over twenty-five years, the willingness and open-heartedness of our students continues to deepen and grow. Through this dance of inner and outer work, we are learning to make a difference, and feeling the gratitude of getting to participate and contribute to changes arising in all areas of life. In the book, Blessed Unrest: How The Largest Movement in the World Came into Being and Why No One Saw it Coming, the author, Paul Hawken, explains that this movement “is about people who want to save the entire sacred, cellular, basis of existence.” While the author did not intend his book to be optimistic, he discovered that the optimism found him. In order to support this movement, Inspiration Consciousness School is strengthening and revisioning our class curriculums and support systems. We are also adding three new classes to the curriculum over the next six months-- the first of which is featured in this mailing. The Awakening course continues to be our most energizing and galvanizing journey. The Spiritual Apprenticeship is the pivotal and deep commitment to the lifelong marriage of the Seeker and the Beloved. The Essence course is the realization of the highest way of living possible. This curriculum culminates in the flowering of a full human being walking in the balance of inner fiery transformation and outer devotion to all life in the Bodhisattva course. We are offering special discounts so that if you are take two classes, you will receive a 5% discount on each class. If you enroll in three or more classes, you will receive a 10% discount on each class. We are doing this because the call to awaken is becoming more urgent and speaking passionately to so many of us. I want to invite all of us to delve more deeply, passionately, and authentically into our consciousness studies and into our service with our loved ones and vocations. I look forward to continuing the journey with you. Please call if you have any questions about the Fall semester. May every breath cultivate boundless love,Jessica |
Integrative BreathingIntegrative Breathing is a potent, safe and natural healing process which utilizes breath expansion and awareness to induce transformation -- physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. Breath is our most important connection to life energy, because it is the first and last action that we take during our life. As we expand the quantity and quality of breath into our body, healing energy is created and intensified. This promotes an increased state of aliveness and a connection to what is most essential to ourselves, both on a personal and transpersonal level. This energy can also facilitate awareness and release physical, emotional and mental blocks. Each breath becomes an opportunity not only for self-nourishment, but for the release of unconscious barriers one has to experiencing life harmoniously. Integrative Breathing promotes the possibility of experiencing and healing trauma and tension carried from birth up to our present day life. It is a process that teaches and guides us towards our essential capacity to experience each moment of life as pregnant with possibility, a moment of rebirth into life and love. In this context one can integrate physical, emotional, mental and spiritual experience, and all aspects of self/Self, this moving into profound acceptance of oneself, others, and life. Each person's process of self-discovery is individual and unique. One can use this transformational process for a variety of reasons, such as:
