For Women

Way of the Heart

2025 Course is fully booked

When women come together with a collective intention, the miraculous happens. 

We invite you to join us on this profound year-long journey to the seat- of the soul. 

As we walk the Way together we will share our unique life lessons, be vulnerable together, encourage each other with our presence and gain new perspective in a shared container of non-judgement. 

Significant change whether personal or societal, usually happens gradually over time, requiring patience and consistent devotion rather than dramatic shifts.

Way of the Heart (the first of three texts in the series of Christ Mind texts) reveals depth, clarity, and wisdom, and is designed to unfold any soul truly desiring to awaken into a lived Reality of profound peace and joy.

Way of the Heart is a roadmap. Only you have the key to your own healing, and through this universal spiritual text your given education and supportive mindfulness tools to unlock the door. 

Any true spiritual path is a personal, individual journey focused on the inner connection with Divine Spirit, Source of all Creation.

Not from mere thought or belief but through radical transformation. 

Amber and Lauren have been teachers of the Christ Mind path for a combined 11 years. 

They have co-facilitated embodiment 8 day-Embodiment retreats together.  

This path is a deeply personal journey for each of us, as it guides the reader into self-reflection, and each of our own, ever unfolding attunement with the Divine.

About Lauren and Amber

Lauren has been on a 14-year journey uncovering the true message of Christ for herself.

She grew up in Christian religion in South Alabama and felt deeply connected to Jesus (Yeshua) although the message of dogma and judgment did not land as truth in her being.

After a profound experience in yoga of deep Peace, she wanted to know the truth, and she asked Jesus to lead her to that.

Soon after A Course in Miracles and Way of Mastery came into her life and along with that, her own Guidance and connection to Jesus (Yeshua) began growing.

She found herself travelling to Africa, Costa Rica and different parts of the world, practicing and also teaching the mindfulness and well-being practice of yoga.

She began discovering, He never taught religion or a belief system, but the profound journey of radical transformation in all aspects of our being.

Lauren has walked with close to thirty friends through Way of the Heart text since 2015, guiding and mentoring through friendship and mutual devotion to awakening. She is co-facilitating two Way of the Heart groups now.

Lauren has held 9 embodiment retreats in New Mexico, Florida and the UK (co-facilitating with Israel for some of them.)

Lauren loves supporting others through these texts and enjoys the fruits of continually growing friendships grounded in Love. 

She has a degree in Communication studies, is a Certified yoga teacher, Breathwork practitioner and is in her final mentorship at the Somatic Sex Institute.

She brings a grounded, evidence backed approach to all her offerings.

Amber found her way to Way of Mastery after asking God to show her why she’s here. She felt like she had all the things the world said should make her happy and yet she felt great despair inside. It was soon after this that her life began to shift.

She felt a nudge to try a local yoga studio where one of the teachers was sharing from A Course in Miracles. The words felt to her like Truth and like going home.

Amber’s path then took her to yoga teacher training where she began to learn tools of mindfulness to also be able to share with others as she learned herself.

She then began teaching and learning with a mindfulness and social-emotional learning organization which brought education to children in public school classrooms.

One day, she saw Lauren visiting the yoga studio where she taught, and they had coffee after class together. It was then that Lauren shared with Amber how she’d been learning about somatics and somatic sex education.

They stayed in touch over email and began to meet on zoom to read Way of the Heart together. Amber found that Way of the Heart and somatic education were pointing at the same things, healing the relationship with body.

To Amber, Way of the Heart welcomed the body-mind, and welcomed her right where she was. She felt supported by reading it with a friend, someone who was in their own process of inner transformation at the same time. It felt easier to be vulnerable and self-honest, and she was learning how to communicate.

All along Amber has felt these opportunities have come from the initial questions, of why am I here? What’s the real cause of peace and joy? Why did some systems which she pursued (religion, medical, psychology) feel just off the mark/incomplete to her?

To her, it felt like some systems denied the body but emphasized the Spirit and some systems denied the Spirit but emphasized the body. The poetry of the mystics, like Rumi, always touched Amber. What she wanted to know was of being Spirit in body.

She’d tried to find a knowing of peace and joy through many avenues and nothing seemed to last. Discovering a pathway and like-minded others, has brought Amber to a world of spiritual Self-discovery, where learning continues to unravel constriction from her system.

Amber studied psychology in college, and is currently a student of somatic sex education. She feels deeply held and supported by Nature, being outdoors feels like a sanctuary to her.

I promise you this

If you become wholly committed to awakening from the dream you have dreamed since the stars first began to appear in the heavens, and even before that, if your one desire is to be only what God created… then lay at the altar of your heart with every breath, everything you think you know, everything you think you need, and look lovingly upon every place that fear has made a home in your mind, and allow correction to come.

It will come. Regardless of how you experience it, it will come.

~ Jeshua, The Early Years, “Choose to See”

“A more accessible version of “A Course in Miracles, and at the same time, the best books on the deeper nature of yoga  I have ever seen. Perhaps the most important spiritual texts ever. “ – Philip Urso, International Yoga teacher, and studio owner; Harvard graduate student of psychology and A Course in Miracles podcast host. 

“I have been a student of Jesus and the New Testament since I was very young, a minister for many years, and have always wanted to know “the rest of the story.” In these teachings I found “the rest of the story.” – Rev. Kay Hunter Senior Minister at Cathedral of Light.

How this works

  1. If you want to receive info about the 2026 course, sign up to receive info.
  2. We meet as a group once per week on zoom for 75 minutes.
  3. You will also have a study friend you are given for each chapter to meet with, twice each month for 30 minutes, to share what you are learning together.

*Throughout the year Lauren and Amber will also offer three additional opportunities to join together on zoom for education on somatics, IFS, trauma release/ body dearmouring depending on what would most be of service to the shared group’s learning.*

Lauren and Israel are authentic, honest, transparent and real. They bring forward learning opportunities in science and spirit, love and wisdom in a very approachable way. I feel seen and understood when I need steadying. I feel valued and encouraged when I need support. They are wonderful individual facilitators, and incredible facilitators together.

- Amber, Yoga Teacher, Mother

Through my session with Lauren I had this insight which was Power. I feel like the deeper I went with the breath, the more I was tapping into “power” or “my power center” I had been holding on to people, things and holding my breath to feel safe. Letting go is scary. But letting go helps me grow and ironically stand in true power.

- Scott, Gym Coach

Before I met Lauren I had went to several counselors and read every self help book I could get my hands on, nothing truly worked. Then….. I started doing Breathwork) with Lauren. I am calmer, I have more inner peace, and I can handle my emotions and events in my life with a level of control I  have never had. Later, I started doing body  embodiment sessions and doing naked yoga. Since then I have more self love. I don’t focus on what people might think-it is just a thought and has no affect on me. The first time I went to the beach after working with Lauren, I put my swimsuit on without anxiety, fear, and tears. I even walked around! My body is fine with all the “flaws” and there is no shame in it. Now I can walk around in front of my husband without trying to hide and telling him not to look. I have more self-love.

- Sarah, Mom, Warrant officer

I went into this breathwork session with so much built up fear and made up stories. Through the breath we transcended the barriers of this fear. I opened up and felt safe enough to allow miracles.  By the time we were done I had lost tract of time and transcended into Gods hands. I felt no more physical pain, only peace and love.

- Aspen, Mom, Real Estate Agent 

This was the first class that really challenged me physically and psychologically. She was absolutely so inviting, an excellent teacher, a wonderful mentor, and became a supportive friend. She has this wonderful gift to inspire our self-worth, to explore ourselves, to try new things, and challenge our ‘why not’ resistance to change.

- Paul, Doctor, Dad

As the somatic sessions continued, I started to reclaim parts of my voice that I’d lost. I was able to speak up for myself around the authority figure that I had always walked on eggshells around. The miraculous thing to me was, it wasn’t scary or hard to do! Practicing in the sessions with Lauren, helped me to regain access to my own inner authority and to connect it to my voice.

- Mahila, Teacher 

I have had low libido as a result of a few things, childbirth, ME/Chronic fatigue, and shutting down emotions as a coping mechanism. I wanted to open up to fully reconnecting with myself but never came across anyone that I felt could help or trust. Lauren has been brilliant. Her approach is extremely nurturing, Loving, and honors me and where I am, which is slow with plenty of resistance. She is teaching me how to honor the feminine in me. I trust her implicitly.

- Janet, Mom and Spiritual Community space holder

While practicing with Lauren, I learned a lot about myself. It’s ok to be comfortable being uncomfortable. We can find breath in all experiences in life. Apply meaning to the important, while allowing the unimportant to go. Lauren provided an amazing space to practice, breath, and improve my physical and spiritual self. Also attending naked yoga opened a space to be free and open without worry about judgment. I am more comfortable in my own skin and more confident in myself.

- John, US Army, Dad

Wow. I’ve been in therapy for 26 years exploring the topic of self love; the insights I received at retreat with Lauren and Israel have never come up in all those years of therapy. I learned to listen to my body’s wisdom and to speak my truth with kindness (instead of swallowing my truths in the name of politeness…which has created a lot of resentment in my life.)  The insights are too many to name.  I’ve been home for two days and can already see how this is positively impacting my relationships. Both Lauren and Israel create such a safe space and channel so much wisdom; I’m so grateful to both of them for their courage in offering these experiences.

- Beth, Mom, Photographer 

Beginning my Way of Mastery journey with Lauren has been revelatory.  She listens in non-judgement in a way that allows me to become more and more honest with myself.  She is not a meek coach that simply wants you to like her.  She will question and challenge your beliefs.  She speaks from her heart with what I believe is a true desire for my own awakening because she trusts so completely in the interconnectedness of us all through Love.  Her commitment to Truth is commendable and her trust in her own inner voice is inspiring.
