Birthed by popular demand, The Emergence Process Advanced Practicum guides you to embody and fully express your Essential Self in your daily life, and inspire and facilitate others to do the same.
The Emergence Process was co-created by Patricia Ellsberg and her sister Barbara Marx Hubbard as a spiritual journey into literally becoming the next stage of our human evolution. It’s about incarnating our divine humanity in flesh and blood, not as a future potential but in everyday life.
So many of us have flashes of inspiration and spiritual opening but are not able to sustain them as we engage the world.
You’ll learn how to lovingly, gently, powerfully build internal resonance between all parts of your self, creating an integrated local self that welcomes in more of your higher Self.
As you do so, you will become a magnetic, centered, and radiant force for positive change quite naturally.
The Emergence Process is different than psychotherapy or even conventional meditation practice because it is a co-creative process of creating internal and external resonance.
This state of higher resonance literally connects us to the unified field and higher capacities which would otherwise be very difficult, if not impossible, to access. Rather than following a strict formula, the Emergence Process tracks the truth of the moment, leading to new possibilities of healing, co-creation, and higher intuitive guidance.
On the deepest level, it’s about creating a homecoming for your soul, welcoming in the upper octave of your being to land fully in your body, your emotions, and your daily life. It works with the alchemy of the human heart, which extends a relaxed, loving presence to welcome the fullness of your being.
This 24-week advanced and expanded presentation of the Emergence Process has never been offered before–anywhere.
It offers a unique opportunity for both new and continuing students to receive personal guidance and delve more deeply than ever before into each step of the 10 step Emergence Process.
And, for the first time, you will learn how to facilitate the Emergence Process with individuals and lead Emergence Circles, making it a core part of your transformational toolkit, which can be an important adjunct to a coaching, therapy, group, or leadership practice.
You will be empowered to share and lead this process, which is so valuable for all those who want “to be the change they wish to see in the world”, and spread it as a powerful tool for social transformation.
Part of the reason for this program is that we began noticing something fascinating about the 8-week Emergence Process introductory courses taught by Patricia Ellsberg: they have had - by far - the greatest rate of repeating students of any course offered by The Shift Network.
A significant number of people have taken the journey as many as four times!
We learned a number of things from this. First, because the Emergence Process is an ever-unfolding, organic journey, each time someone cycles through there are fresh insights, openings, and learnings. Second, the quality of the resonant field created is so transformative and powerful such that people want to stay connected to it and continue to grow. Third, the birthing of the Essential Self needs a longer time and steady support to really unfold in the deepest way.
That’s why we recognized that a six-month format would be ideal for those who recognize the power, depth, and importance of this work and want to go deeper with a strong field of community, practice, and support.
The Emergence Process is unparalleled in its capacity to restore internal wholeness, align us with our truest self, dissolve the internal schisms that pit parts of us against other parts, and create an open invitation for our Universal Self to birth in our day-to-day life.
This is more than a course.
It is a way of living, being and doing.
The Emergence Process is transformative as it guides you to experience, live, and express your Essence in the world, and inspire others to do the same.
You will be guided by transformational teacher Patricia Ellsberg, and inspired teachings from her sister, Barbara Marx Hubbard, as well as a team of Senior Emergence Process Facilitators for whom living as Essence has become the very foundation of their lives.
Through The Emergence Process Advanced Practicum, you will learn and help others to:
- Experience a place of peace, ease and inspiration as you leave behind the concerns, pressures, compulsions and stress of your daily life
- Incarnate your Essential Self, becoming the Beloved you have been seeking
- Awaken a loving presence within you and live as loving awareness
- Release the illusion of separation, letting ego guide you to Essence
- Find your true purpose, with your ego aligned with and in service to your Essence
- Heal long-held “sacred wounds” within you, transforming limiting beliefs and developing strategies that empower you
- Surrender the “figuring out mind” to access higher intuition
- Allow your life to re-pattern, deliberately releasing what no longer serves you
- Develop your own authentic power and discover greater flow in your work and life, seamlessly blending being and doing
- Commit to taking steps that manifest your life’s passion
- Create a support team and find a community with whom to co-create
Also, as you learn to facilitate each of the 10 Steps of the Emergence Process with others you will be guided to:
- Transmit the “Essence” of each step in your own way
- Create and facilitate Emergence Circles
- Cultivate group resonance
- Sustain and deepen a “resonant field”
- Speak and inspire others to speak from Essence
- Honor the silence
- Listen deeply
- Lead attunements and powerful guided meditations
Now is the time to deepen your experience of Emergence, expand your knowledge, share your wisdom and your gifts. The Emergence Process Advanced Practicum offers you powerful teachings, practices and a community of support if you are called to evolve yourself and the world.
What You’ll Discover in This 24-Week Practicum
Each LIVE training session will build harmoniously upon the next, so that you’ll develop a complete, holistic understanding of the practices, tools and principles you’ll need to permanently sustain your Emergence and catalyze it in others.
Each week Patricia Ellsberg, along with Senior Emergence Facilitators, will support you to breakthrough to your highest potential and live more fully as your Essential Self. For each of the 10 Steps, two weeks will be devoted to delving in deeply. There will be time for you to share your experience of each Step, and your successes and challenges.
You will also receive guidance on how to share each Step with others. You will be invited to engage in regular practice sessions where you learn to teach the material and lead Emergence Circles. Additional practice sessions will be offered throughout the course for those who want to receive more guidance from Patricia and the Facilitation Team.
You will be encouraged to find an “Emergence Process partner” or participate in an Emergence Circle, and meet at least once to discuss each step. You’ll be supported in finding these partners among either the participants in the course or from your own circle of friends and can meet virtually or in person.
You will also have access to a dynamic online community to discuss and practice the teachings with fellow participants. Senior Emergence Facilitators will be available to offer individual advice and support.
The main course sessions will air live from 5 pm to 7 pm Pacific/ 8-10 pm Eastern time on Mondays. However, even if you cannot make the live calls, you can still get the full benefit of this training.
We have also incorporated the invaluable feedback that we have received from Patricia’s students and graduates to create the most powerful online format we have offered at the Shift Network for transformational learning and practice.
Here are just a few of the ways we have enriched this 24-week Advanced program
- Longer, more in-depth teachings and lectures

- In-depth instruction into the nuances of the key practices and tools

What Students Say about The Emergence Process and Patricia Ellsberg...
"I loved it ...Answering the call and listening to the useful steps, linked me regularly with my higher self and it gave me the courage and the enthusiasm I needed to continue the work I have already begun 20 years ago in my community."
– Monica Huber Fontaine, Geneve, Switzerland
"For me it was really an amazing experience, especially considering that I have been on the spiritual path for a long time so I am not so frequently surprised! But in this case, I feel Patricia helped me to build a profound and deep connection with myself. This was invaluable for me and helped me to emerge. I loved Patricia‘s leading the course and meditations."
– Laura Gabriela Rey, Buenos Aires, Argentina
"I have been searching for an expansion into a broader community where individuals hold ’the space’ of integrity and essence as a group. The experience with you all was that community for me at this time in my evolution. I felt deep resonance with the meditations, the words, the stories and the voices /folks on the conference class calls. I was able to experience a deeper and longer connection to my core soul ’I AM’ in the group energy."
– Holly Hubbard, Wilmington, North Carolina, USA
"As someone who has been searching for truth and healing for many years, this Emergence course has been the richest, most powerful and transformative experience of my life. I now feel connected to a palpable loving radiant inner presence or I could call it an inner fullness of love and peaceful joy that just wants to overflow towards others and towards the world. I have experienced the soothing and healing energy of this loving presence towards the wounded places in me. People I come into contact with, often tell me they feel something positive emanating from me. There has been a quickening, an intensification in the circumstances of my life, moving me towards a richer, more loving life.
I want to thank Patricia for her wonderful presentation of the course. I was so touched and inspired to feel how steady and unflinching was the unconditional love emanating from her at all times and present in her every word, making it easy for me to invoke the presence of essence. I feel that she is giving a precious gift to people by delivering this course with such skill and depth. Sometimes I find myself wondering if I could ever learn to do that so I may contribute in such a valuable way to people and the world."
– Sarah Igelfeld, Montreal, Quebec
"In my over three decades of seeking self and spiritual growth I have not experienced anything more profoundly transformative than the From Ego to Essence teleclass with Patricia Elsberg. I have all of Patricia’s meditations on my iPod and listen to them daily. I have never felt such joy, safety, comfort, compassion and gratitude as when I am in the space of full surrender to my Universal Self, and I would still continue to struggle to find that state without the guidance of Patricia... Thank you so much."
– Kathryn Brewer, Arroyo Grande, CA, United States
“Participating in the Emergence Process with Barbara and Patricia has been one of the most meaningful and powerful processes I have ever done. I use one of their recorded meditations every morning. Their profound depth of wisdom and love are carrying me ever more deeply into my Universal Heart.”
– Cynthia Volpi, Oakland, CA, United States
"Being part of the Emergence Process provided me with an unique opportunity to expand my consciousness through the concepts and models that they provided and the regular contact that I had through the Ning site with fellow travelers.”
– Thomas Harris, Johannesburg, South Africa
“The Emergence course was truly the guiding force to the shift within me. I was deeply able to fully feel and experience the loving presence to my inner wounded child. The beautiful meditations led by Patricia and the sharing of Barbara’s experiences in this course is profoundly guiding my emergence process. I am forever deeply in gratitude.”
– Carolyn Temes, United States
“Each morning when I write from my egoic self, I often feel concerned and annoyed. Yet when I read I write back as Essence, I am struck by the calmness of the words and compassion of the tone.”
– Harvey Austin, Pompano Beach, FL, United States
"For me the course grounded and stabilized my inner work I have done before. I have learned many new aspects and perspectives by the teachings of Barbara and Patricia and the other members of the course whom I met through the course via the internet."

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is a virtual course?
A: It’s a great way to engage live teachings and each other from the comfort of your home! All you need is a phone line (or an equivalent voice service). If there is more than one person in your household taking the course, you will each need your own line. We use MaestroConference to make it just like an in-person event, where you can ask questions, participate in groups, and deepen your exploration of the course themes.
Please note that dialing MaestroConference from your phone is a regular toll call to California, and your telephone service provider will charge you according to your existing long-distance calling plan. You can also use Skype credit/subscription or Google Voice to dial in to MaestroConference, and you’ll need to use your virtual keypad to enter your PIN and to indicate that you want to ask a question. Other options include calling cards and discount long-distance carriers, and we also have a webcast which is free to use from anywhere in the world.
Q: Can I get benefit from the course if I miss the live classes?
A: Absolutely! You can download the recordings and transcripts of all course sessions from our online media archive, so you never need to worry about missing live calls. You can also engage the full community and leaders on our private community website.
Q: Can you tell me about the Private Course Group?
A: We will have a private community group for all course participants on our Shift Movement that will support you in making connections with others, sharing insights, engaging in discussions, completing homework assignments and exchanging information about events and other activities that can supplement your transformational journey.
