The S.U.R.E.A.L. system & the 9 Alchemical Steps to
Unlock the Conscious Creator in you:
Phase 1 — Find Your Body: Somatic practices, breathing exercises, and learning your body’s responses.
Spark
This stage is about burning away accumulated tension and stress in your body, and allowing for a clearer awareness of how the body responds to various stimuli.
Phase 2 — Find Your Light: Meditation practice and deep listening.
2. Melt
Here, the focus is on dissolving rigid mental constructs and understanding the fluid nature of bodily sensations. This involves using meditation to explore and release old reactions to information and learning to ground the body in the present moment.
3. Sort
This stage focuses on distinguishing essential aspects of yourself from distractions, cutting away what doesn’t serve you. Using meditation and deep listening, you will learn to separate the voice of the ego from the voice of the spirit. To do this, we must develop a deep sense of self-awareness.
Phase 3 — Find Your Story: Identify the core stories shaping your worldview.
4. Fuse
This phase combines knowledge gleaned from working with the body with meditative insights from the mind, leading to a cohesive understanding of one’s desires and fears. First, identify the existing thoughts and behavioral patterns that form your reality, the “core stories.” Next, discover how your body and mind record and reinforce your core stories.
5. Grind
This stage is the ultimate destruction and elimination process. First, break down your core stories to their most fundamental elements. Next, step into your inner alchemist and transform the rot and decay of pain and trauma into fertilizer from which your new life will sprout.
Phase 4 — Find Your Truth: Habit formation and maintenance.
6. Ferment
Identifying desires and fears through journaling and deep listening unlocks the door to inner transformation. Now that you know which beliefs you want to affirm, time to breathe new life into fresh thought patterns and behaviors.
7. Distill
Here, the focus is on refining and clarifying the core stories and beliefs that shape your worldview. It involves streamlining the essential elements of your personal narrative, removing distortions, and gaining a clearer perspective on your identity and goals.
Phase 5 — Find Your Faith: Cultivating a lifelong journey with spirituality.
8. Transcend
This stage is about transcending the old stories and fully committing to your new spiritual practice. It involves the ongoing application of your chosen patterns, and continuous enlightenment and integration of new spiritual insights into your life.
9. Solidify
This final phase represents the solidification of new habits and practices into your daily life. It’s about embodying the new routines and behaviors that align with your desires and truth, leading to a stable and integrated lifestyle change.
