Cultivating your unwavering, inner-body Presence of Stillness is a crucial preparation before you undertake a Sacred body Rites training. A daily meditation practice of sitting in Stillness is fundamental.
It is also just as important to navigate your Core Erotic Wounds and the shadows that unconsciously create snake behavior. By undertaking your Grail Journey, you integrate your shadows that drive your unconscious snake behavior (See Stillness Touch Union of Body & Love Chapter 6 & 7).
Then, if necessary, you receive Stillness Touch sessions to embody your Presence of Stillness, which leads to learning how to give Stillness Touch sessions. You may be required to enroll in a Stillness Touch Master Class, or receive a private Stillness Touch training.
Once Stillness has established itself as your fundamental state while touching and being touched, the next preparatory stage is navigating your Core Erotic Wounds. You do this by walking your Grail Journey (See my book Stillness Touch Union of Body and Love). After your Grail Journey, you are inwardly prepared to receive a series of Sacred Body Rites sessions. Receiving Sacred Body Rites, you gain experience ‘being present with’ personal Core Erotic Wound shadow issues that arise during SBR sessions. Beyond engaging your personal Grail Journey, it is the body itself that reveals the specific Core Wound shadow issues that we learn to ‘be present with,‘ which prepares you to offer Sacred Body Rites to others (who also have, and thus need support in, navigating their Core Erotic Wounds!).
Before joining the Sacred Body Rites Training, you may be required to receive a series of Sacred Body Rites sessions that give you the opportunity to navigate the multitude of shadow issues that arise in you. You gain crucial experience navigating shadow issues IF they arise in you or a recipient.
Elements of a Sacred Body Rites Training
1) Establish a Daily Sitting Practice
2) Navigate Your Grail Journey to Integrate Your Core Erotic Wounds and Shadows
3) Learn Stillness Touch
4) Receive Sacred Body Rites Sessions
5) Learn Sacred Body Rites
Note: Sacred Body Rites is not a series of bodywork techniques that we apply to other’s bodies.
Rather, to competently offer Sacred Body Rites, we are morally obligated to navigate our most pivotal Core Erotic Wound shadows before ever offering SBR to others.
Navigating your Grail Journey is the foundational practice for the competent offering of Sacred Body Rites to others.
That means, to offer Sacred Body Rites requires that you navigate your personal Core Erotic Wound shadows. Specific Core Wound issues will arise while you receive Sacred Body Rites, which provide your personal map for undertaking your Grail Journey. While engaging in Sacred Body Rites session exchanges, you not only experience the practical steps of SBR, your shadows also arise from the wisdom of your body that reveal what needs your navigation.
In addition to the preparation steps of a daily meditative Stillness Practice, engaging your Grail Journey, proficiency in offering Stillness Touch, and receiving Sacred Body Rites sessions, the Training involves up to 10 to 12 interactive session and exchanges – all of which depends on your prior bodywork experience.
During your four-hour interactive training session exchanges, you will receive and give a session to gain experience on how to offer each specific aspect of Sacred Body Rites in detail.
Each 4-hour session exchange provides experience with a particular aspect of Sacred Body Rites

The final 2 session exchanges integrate the specific aspects of Sacred Body Rites. Each specific aspect is combined and integrated into a full Sacred Body Rites session. During this interactive process, you mutually receive and give full Sacred Body Rites sessions. Refinement of the practices and principles of Sacred Body Rites occur during these final experiential sessions. Finally, the training is completed by you offering 2 full 4-hour Sacred Body Rites sessions that are given over two days.
Note: The exact number of Sacred Body Rites sessions depends on your previous training and experience, all of which influences the flow of and content of the training. Therefore, the above is only a general scheme.
