With Spiritual Teacher, Author, Feminine Mystic & Interfaith Minister
Miranda Macpherson
26-Module Self-Paced Video Training

Turn within, relax into Unshakable Presence, and expand into deeper dimensions of consciousness — so you can embody your deepest love and transform fear without getting caught up in the mindstream of negative emotions.

Focus on What it Takes to Live in These Uncertain Times — While Remaining Spiritually Grounded & Strong

As these complex, uncertain times continue on, we need the refuge that spiritual practice provides more than ever.

There’s a great need for more of us to not only find inner peace, but to stabilize our realization so that our way of being provides spiritual shelter for others.

We need all the help we can get.

We need one another — and we need Grace.

Grace is so much more than a beautiful state that fills your heart with gratitude. It’s direct experience of Divine Presence coming alive from within — reconnecting you to the Source of boundless love, peace, clarity, strength, and joy that are independent of external circumstances.

How does Grace come alive? Through surrender — which isn’t about giving up or submitting to an external authority. True spiritual surrender is an ongoing process of Ego Relaxation — learning to be present and undefended with what IS.

Grace is available to help you navigate these challenging times with peace and inner calm — and help you harness your life situation as an opportunity for authentic transformation and constructive change.

Welcome a Renowned Spiritual Teacher & Modern Mystic as Your Mentor

Join us for a 26-session advanced program with interfaith minister, modern mystic, and author Miranda Macpherson — and learn to respond to the Divine Invitations appearing in your life.

As your spiritual maturity deepens, you’ll evolve into the most noble version of yourself, which is what our world needs most right now.

With Miranda as your guide, you’ll turn more substantially within, recognizing the Mystery that birthed you into being — the one that’s known and loved you all the days of your life.

You’ll cultivate the courage to face whatever scares you, grow more spiritually resilient, and open to new depths of awareness and possibility...

You’ll come to truly embody your noble qualities in service to your loved ones, community, and our world in transition.

As you move through this advanced program, Miranda will share further nuances of her feminine, holistic approach to spiritual surrender based on the practice of Ego Relaxation.

Expanding on the foundations in her book The Way of Grace: The Transforming Power of Ego Relaxation and her previous Shift courses, Miranda will share how to drink more substantially from the inner stream of nourishment that’s always flowing — even while we navigate COVID-19, racial injustice, and financial instability.

You CAN find shelter from the storm in the place where it can always be found — at the very core of your own being.

Join an international spiritual community with a teacher who's passionately dedicated to loving you all the way home to the freedom and wholeness that is your birthright.

Miranda will provide you with a rich, potent, and integrated map of awakening. She’ll guide you to turn more deeply within, relax into the luminous presence at your core, open your heart to all you find — and expand into deeper dimensions of consciousness, so you can respond gracefully to the invitations of our times.

Move Deeper Into Your Spiritual Practice in This 26-Session Online Sangha

Each session includes a rich teaching and transmission, with precise inquiry practices, nuanced meditations, and exquisite chanting.

If you’ve worked with Miranda before, this course will go deeper into chanting (with a harmonium and Miranda’s own recordings) and leading guided meditations before each inquiry — including inspirational visuals and more nuanced instruction on the meditation practices and the mantras she’s shared in previous Shift courses.

And if you haven’t studied with Miranda before, this extended, holistic journey is the perfect place to begin — she'll address the specific spiritual issues we’re all facing during these uncertain times...

In addition to the regular 30-minutes of Q&A within each class, each of the six modules will include a 90-minute integration and expanded satsang session — where Miranda will work directly with the group questions and reflections, modeling exactly how their obstacles can be transformed into wisdom.

As you learn to relax — stepping outside of the confines of your mind and into the Grace that’s always been here and is with you now and always — you’ll recognize that, even amidst these challenging times, you can always experience joy... and you are infinitely blessed.

Miranda designed this journey to help you harness these times as a Divine Invitation for a substantial shift in your way of being — inwardly, yes, but also in the way you live your daily life...

She’ll help you not only shelter in place but in GRACE, so you’ll emerge from these times as a truly graceful human being — one who remains present and open-hearted in chaotic and difficult circumstances.

During this experiential course, you’ll:

  • Grow roots in a Presence that’s unshakable — and soothe your nerves, regenerate deeply, and receive the spiritual nourishment you need
  • Cultivate the 3 qualities of your deep heart — courage, compassion, and curiosity — that give you the capacity to truly be with everything in your personal sphere, and also in our collective environment with Grace
  • Explore how trust helps you open to the ways in which Loving Presence is always here, nourishing and sustaining you, now and always
  • Learn how to open to the ordinariness of your day with joy and gratitude — receiving all of life loving you... and reminding you that even in moments of chaos, all is well
  • Forgive yourself for your mistakes — and for all the ways in which your impact has been less than a blessing to others
  • Allow the Grace of forgiveness to cleanse our collective shadows of systemic racism and the unconscious hatred at the root
  • Cross over from the shore of me — your separate self that’s bound in historically based reactions and patterns — to pure freedom, the universal promised land for us all
  • Discern the difference between trying to be graceful from within your ego structure, and remembering that your ego and its effort has never been the doer
  • Integrate everything you’re learning much more deeply into your daily life — to share the blessings with your loved ones and community

What You’ll Discover in These 26 sessions

In this 26-part transformational intensive, Miranda will guide you through the fundamental body-mind-spirit skills and competencies you’ll need to live as a truly grace-filled human being who’s awake, present, grounded, and open.

This course will feature step-by-step teachings and experiential practices with Miranda. Each session will build harmoniously upon the previous ones, so you’ll develop a complete holistic understanding of the practices, tools, and principles you’ll need to turn within, relax into the luminous presence at your core, and expand into deeper dimensions of consciousness.

Module 1.1

Module 1.1 Grounding in Grace: Yielding to the Luminous Presence Within Through the Practice of Ego Relaxation

 

These uncertain times where our “normal” routines have been powerfully interrupted presents many challenges...

However, it also presents us with an opportunity like never before to befriend this time of change as the Divine Invitation it really is — a chance to wake up out ofeverything that does not truly serve you, yield to a deeper intelligence that has always been running the show... and allow for positive change.

In this 4-week opening module, Miranda will share how to look upon these times as a collective birthing process — and as we know, birth is often intense, wild, and unpredictable.

If we’re wise, we learn to surrender INTO the process, and do our best to align with it, saying “yes” rather than “no”. (The ego’s default is always NO!)

We must learn to wake up OUT OF ego fear, control, conditioning, defenses, and wake up INTO our essential qualities — where we recognize our interconnectedness with everything in existence.

Connected and unified from within, we naturally respond from a consciousness of love and clarity in daily life. As our world is being born anew, we can also be born into a new way of being that is powerfully loving, liberated and wise.

How can we harness this situation to evolve us into the most noble, graceful human beings we can possibly be? The Practice of Ego Relaxation is the “how” of Miranda’s methodology, and she’ll guide you to engage it through Holistic Inquiry, Meditation and Devotional practice. The underpinning principle is:

“You” don’t “do” spiritual transformation. Relax the resistance, and it finds you.

Miranda will introduce you to the four dimensions of Grace, and how we apply Ego Relaxation to the invitations’ life is bringing to you in these times — so that it can come alive within you.

You’ll discover how to harness the precise circumstances you are facing as a divine curriculum, and to take the attitude ofthe happy learner.

Miranda will show you how to discern the difference between authentic surrender and collapse.

Ego Relaxation does not ask you to be passive and not take appropriate actions in your life, rather, it asks for you to understand and learn to relax your EGO ACTIVITY, the ways we are so often getting in our own way through trying to bypass or push past our challenges.

You’ll learn to yield into what IS, which is the essence of the great Sanskrit liberation mantra “Om Nama Shivaya”. Such surrender brings us back into the receptive condition where we feel the Grace that is always present...as our very foundation, bubbling up from within to give us sustenance and support.

This provides us with an instantaneous oasis of calm inside. It is where we can rest in natural great peace, even though the outer world outside may be quaking. Learning to rest inwardly, you can respond in daily life from your deepest center.

In this opening module, you’ll:

  • Embrace your present life circumstances as a divine curriculum, and review specifically what you’re being asked to wake up out of — and what you are being called to wake upinto
  • Recognize the Grace that’s always present, and how your willingness to yield to what IS, brings alive the love and support you need
  • Discover how Ego Relaxation soothes your agitation, helps you settle, and transforms obstacles into wisdom, so you can flow gracefully to life’s invitations
  • Illuminate your defenses as you soften, open, and allow your experience with unconditional acceptance
  • Ways to cultivate a daily practice that sustains you, as you ground into the infinite
  • How to practice Ego Relaxation as a form of meditation — and lean into the Om Nama Shivaya mantra to melt your resistance
Integration & Extended Satsang

In the final session of this 4-session module, Miranda will lead you in a special integration session...

You’ll move through chanting practices, meditation, and a review and deepening of the previous weeks’ sessions.

Miranda will then guide you through a full hour of satsang, where she’ll work more deeply with your questions, grapplings and realizations.

The teachings will come vividly to life in response to the group field, as Miranda models how everything you experience can become a gateway into ever-deepening Grace.

Module 2.1 The 3 C's: Facing Your Challenges With Courage, Compassion & Curiosity

 

Right now we’re all navigating the turmoil of the collective — trying our best to process the uncertainty of our future, and what our world will look like at the end of this tunnel.

While these times potentially can offer us expansive new possibilities, we must not bypass the human challenges.

The spirituality that our world needs now recognizes that human suffering must be met deeply with love.

In this module, Miranda will encourage you to ask, How can we harness these times of change and uncertainty in a way that comes from spiritual maturity — rather than fear and reactivity?

She’ll help you turn towards your challenging emotions of fear and anger — as well also unconscious self-centeredness and reactivity. While these responses are all-too-human and inevitable in these unsettling, intense times... you can instead meet these challenges with courage, compassion, and curiosity.

Together, you and your fellow participants will learn surrender — not through struggling to transcend your ego, but by opening in and through the authentic truth of your direct experience...

In this module, you’ll:

  • Discover how to cultivate Courage, Compassion, and Curiosity with your human emotions — and understand what causes you to react from ego rather than judging yourself for it
  • Explore how to face what scares you, transforming fear into responsiveness
  • Learn to stay present and meet your fears all the way so you can discern the difference between the mind stream of fear (anxiety) and your survival instinct, moving you into wise action
  • Discover what’s always alive underneath your fear
  • Face what enrages you — transforming anger into strength as you stay present with your fire rather than suppressing it or acting it out... shifting the energy within anger into constructive change
  • Explore the difference between your good intentions and your actual impact on others
  • Transform self-centeredness into empathy, moving from me to we
Integration & Extended Satsang

During the closing session of this second module, Miranda will lead you in a special integration session...

She’ll begin with a mantra (Om Tare Tutare Ture So Ha) and a Mountain of Presence meditation to help you stay present and meet everything with Courage, Compassion and Curiosity, as well as a review and deepening of the previous weeks’ sessions.

She’ll then once again move into an hour-long satsang, where she’ll work more deeply with your questions, grapplings and realizations. The teachings will come vividly to life in response to the group field, as Miranda models how everything you experience can become a gateway into ever-deepening Grace.

Module 3.1 Nurturing Spiritual Resilience: Receiving Deep Inner Nourishment

 

At this point on your journey, you’ll be awake to the Divine Invitations appearing within your life. You’ll understand how to practice ego relaxation, with the waves of emotion and energy coming up...

You’ll have removed the “sting” from the reactivity that’s inevitable when there’s great suffering in your midst. You’ll have deepened your capacity to stay present and undefended with what is — and gained deeper access to the Grace that is our inherent foundation...

In this pivotal third module, Miranda will guide you to receive deep inner nourishment, opening to the subtle-yet-substantial forces that are available to help you regenerate.

She’ll introduce you to her powerful teaching, “Trusting the Mystery,” and how this pivotal virtue can be applied specifically to help us in these uncertain times.

Miranda will share the stages in the development of Trust outlined in theA Course in Miracles manual for teachers, opening the possibility of trusting that all is well — even when outward circumstances don’t appear that way.

Miranda will share a teaching on “Taking Refuge” where you’ll make a connection with an enlightened being you’re drawn to — or work more deeply with a mantra you’ve explored in the previous module...

In this powerful, beautiful, restorative and nurturing part of the program, you’ll:

  • Deepen your capacity to recognize and receive the loving goodness that’s always with you
  • Receive a teaching of Ramama Maharshi who speaks of the power of “admitting your inability, and that you need a higher power to help you” in the process of surrender
  • Relax your defense against love and vulnerability that’s rooted in the holding environment of early childhood — and allow Loving Presence to pervade your Being, and dissolve “you”
  • Harness helplessness as a gateway to Grace — and explore how practicing Ego Relaxation makes you soft, open, and humble. .. ushering you into the exquisite celestial state of grace
  • Open to a Divine Helping Hand so you can receive vertical support — and learn to drink light and nourishment just as a plant drinks the light of the sun
Integration & Extended Satsang

In the final week of this third module, Miranda will lead you in a special integration session...

You’ll learn the rejuvenating, enlightened Gayatri mantra — known as the mother of all Sanskrit mantras — including the body movements... as you’ll discover, it’s like taking a light bath each day.

Miranda will also share a Shower of Grace meditation, and review the previous weeks’ sessions.

Once again you’ll conclude with an hour-long satsang, where Miranda responds to your questions, aha ! moments and breakthroughs.

Module 4.1 Heart of the Absolute: Transforming Ancient Hatred Into Present Love

 

By now you’ve opened to taking refuge in a depth of Grace beyond conceptual understanding. You’re learning to trust the mystery that’s unfolding...

In this module, you’ll enter the heart that’s deeper than emotion — the Heart of the Absolute.

The Absolute is the silent depth where everything is absorbed into a great silence. It’s the mystical womb of the universe, the place of the deepest rest — and the deepest resolution.

Having seen some of your subtle or not-so-subtle ego defenses, self-centeredness and reactivity, you’ll likely be feeling quite humbled...

And so Miranda will guide you through the next step of becoming the graceful human being you want to be — facing yourself honestly and opening up to the correction of errors.

This isn’t a process of righting wrongs or judgment, but of understanding thatTrue Forgiveness requires Grace. It requires the non-dual foundation that we’re all innocent in eternity, but not in the realm of time.

Over two sessions you’ll explore Miranda’s teaching, Grace of True Forgiveness — one part will address the need for self-forgiveness, the other will address our need to let forgiveness cleanse us of our hate and demonization of the other. .. even when we feel sure we don’t have hatred within us.

Unfortunately, harboring hatred (even giving someone the cold shoulder without realizing it) is very human, and it’s clearly a huge problem on our planet today.

Hate drives racism, and the ugliest forms of us vs. them mentality, preventing us from being graceful with different perspectives and values.

Once you’ve started working through hatred and forgiveness, though, you’ll find JOY and GRATITUDE much more available...

In this module, you’ll explore:

  • The meaning of the Absolute, where duality, division, and conflict — as well as parts of your personal experience and the collective sphere — can be dissolved
  • A practice where you’ll open to the Presence of Forgiveness within the Heart Cave of Absolute Love, laying down on the inner altar all that needs cleansing
  • How it feels to be cleansed by the living waters of Grace, as a natural gratitude slowly arises within
  • Miranda’s teaching on how you can find JOY in each moment — even in these times of social distancing and limited connection with the places and activities we love most
  • How joy and delight are natural qualities of your deep heart, and bubble up spontaneously when you stop grasping for stimuli and embrace your life exactly as it is
  • The difference between forgiveness and reconciliation — and how forgiveness requires Grace
  • How to allow differences without dehumanization of one another

Module 5.1 Grace Beyond Your Story: Crossing Over Onto the Shore of Freedom

 

At the heart of spiritual transformation — and indeed, every life question we grapple with — is the perennial spiritual question... who am I?

If you understand yourself to be your personality, the roles you play in life, the character of YOU — you’ll continue to be shaken up by life’s ups and downs.

In this module, Miranda will guide you to address the bondage in your mind and open into the spaciousness and pure awareness that is I AM — who you truly are and always have been at every age and stage of life.

Uncovering the jewel of your essential self demonstrates YOU are the love, peace, beauty, meaning and freedom you’ve been seeking all this time. This module is dedicated to helping you experience this, not just understand it conceptually.

You’ll work with Miranda’s powerful “unwinding your core ego identity” process. It unlocks the rubik’s cube of your familiar self and its patterns...

This work integrates rare psychological insight into how personality structures are constellated in our earliest childhood experiences — with spiritual understanding of the “fall from grace” that all human beings go through...

You’ll explore the curious phenomena of how the ego tends to re-constellate back to familiar stories, even after you’ve dropped through them to a deeper reality.

To determine whether a story binds you or serves you, you’ll learn to spot the difference between immediate direct experience and the meaning you give to the story. Also, you’ll learn to relax your attachment to adhering to this story as though it were true.

From there, you’ll stretch out and explore the spaciousness within — the pure freedom and possibility. You’ll discover there’s no beginning, middle, or end to what you are...

In this powerful module, you’ll discover how:

  • You can regard your personality structure as a GATE to open through, rather than a problem to be fixed... and explore your True Nature, the luminous truth and beauty of your pure being
  • Too often, our sense of security is based on others’ approval
  • We’re often not graceful with change because we do not know who we really are – and are thus dependent on external forces that we can never control
  • You can unwind your sense of not feeling good enough and harness it as a portal to discover the luminous truth and beauty at your core
  • The script you created to make sense of your most difficult moments of feeling separate — and how it now drives the story of repetitive patterns in your life
  • To open into spaciousness of nondual awareness, where you truly know your fundamental unity as One, recognizing your Divine nature everywhere
Integration & Extended Satsang

In this module’s integration session, Miranda will lead you in a chant of I AM along with two meditations, “Abiding as Loving Awareness” and a classical Advaita meditation on “I Am” — and a review and deepening of the previous weeks’ sessions.

You’ll once again be able to ask Miranda your questions and get feedback in real time during the full hour or satsang.

Module 6.1 Rising Into Your Spiritual Destiny: Embodying Grace as You Walk This World

 

Just as nature continues to cycle and unfold, there’s no end to becoming more fully who you truly are.

In this final module, Miranda will show you how to embody what you’ve been realizing deeper into daily life — to share the blessings with your loved ones and community.

You’ll recognize that there is no such thing as “your” awakening, if it doesn’t contribute more truth, goodness, beauty and virtue deeper into this world.

Now is the time to stop holding your love back, take creative risks and share your inherent goodness, latent talents, creativity, and kindness.

You’ll explore what it means to live your life Resting in Grace while becoming a refuge for others as you walk this world. You’ll stabilize your relaxation by prioritizing your practice.

Miranda will explain the difference between trying to be graceful from within your ego structure, and remembering that your ego and its effort has actually never been the doer.

Putting this into practice, so you truly learn to become graceful human beings is a long-term project that takes ongoing commitment.

You will be supported as you create the necessary structures in your life to prioritize staying grounded and present with all that arises, so your actions and responses are less clouded by your personality...

This includes being awake to the places you know you’re vulnerable to reactivity — and how to reset quickly when needed.

Miranda will share simple, informal practices that have woven themselves organically into her regular life — and encourage you to find a daily rhythm that works for you to be a more grounded, graceful human being in your daily life.

In this module, you’ll discover:

  • How you can serve your family, loved ones, and your community by putting all you’re learning into action in your daily life
  • Ways to practice unity with unapologetic authenticity — being fully who you are and living according to your deepest values, while remembering that underneath it all, you’re not separate
  • How to walk this world in Grace and serve its evolution.
  • How you can support others as you radiate your noble qualities and inherent goodness in your relationships, work and life.
  • The master key to being graceful amidst it all: letting doing happen from Being
  • How to forgive ourselves when you falter (and you will!) and reset when you need to
Integration & Extended Satsang

In this final integration and extended satsang, Miranda will lead you in the usual chanting (you’ll choose one that nourishes you best, weaving it into your regular routine), meditation (on-the-spot versions of the practice that best serves you, and applying this throughout the day)...

... and review of your journey together. Then, you can share your most important reflections, questions, and realizations from your journey.

This session will provide an opportunity to have a rich and meaningful conclusion, and go forward drenched in blessings and rich in inner resources, radiating all the Grace you’ve received deeper into your life.

Introduction to Holistic Self-inquiry

Mantras for Living From Grace

Sometimes, ordinary language cannot accurately express the deepest dimensions of our being — the love for the sacred mystery that is boundless being and bliss. Yet, we can contact our nonlinear depths through sound, silence, and prayer. This is the way of devotion. It opens up courage, compassion, and joy, and supports true fulfillment.. Sanskrit mantras are ancient syllables that exert precise positive effects on the body, heart, and mind.

Lean into the mantras as you lean your head into the pillow at night. Dissolve into the mantra and it draws you back into the origin of your being. As you chant, feel into your own prayers — your truest yearnings for yourself and for the world. Intoning these ancient sounds, you join with all beings throughout time who have ever prayed these prayers. Now your prayers are part of a continuing stream of the awakening heart. May they become part of your daily life — supporting you to reside AS the heart of Being.

In this special bonus, you’ll receive recordings of:

  • Om Nama Shivaya Bliss

A powerful version of the Hindu mantra for surrender, the god Shiva is part of the trinity consisting of Brahma (creation), Vishnu (sustenance), and Shiva (destruction)

  • May All Beings Dwell in the Heart

Dedication to the benefit of all beings, which you are invited to speak each time you practice

  • Gayatri

The Gayatri is considered to be the “mother of all mantras” and the most powerful for optimizing the awakened condition

  • Tara

Tara's primary activity is to liberate beings from FEAR and the root causes of fear

2 Chapters From the Ebook by Miranda Macpherson

Many of us struggle to truly live a spiritual life. What if it’s not about trying harder, though? The Way of Grace is a guide to spiritual surrender and nondual realization based on the practice of ego relaxation ― a holistic, feminine approach to welcoming all of your experience and responding with compassion and wisdom in a world in need of your unique gifts.

Bonus

Ego Relaxation
Video Teaching From Miranda Macpherson

Authentic surrender happens when you relax out of the tension, stress and conflict of your familiar ego identity and its activity — which is always trying to DO something to change, fix, or rearrange your Self. Ego relaxation invites you to just BE HERE, where you are, learning to relax out of your ego doing. Without trying or forcing, you can melt back into a more fluid, easeful state of being.

Bonus

Ego Relaxation Reset
Audio Meditation From Miranda Macpherson

Ego activity keeps you separate from the natural peace, clarity, and joy of your inherent true nature. Like progressive muscle relaxation, ego relaxation invites you into loving awareness of your fear and contraction — and supports a natural letting go. While the goal is to practice ego relaxation in every moment, you can move into a simple practice for long periods of silence, or for just five minutes as a reset.

Bonus

Shower of Grace Meditation Reset
Audio Meditation From Miranda Macpherson

Harnessing devotion and visualization, the Shower of Grace meditation invites you to receive the refuge of non-conceptual blessings, whether you understand this to emerge from enlightened beings, celestial forces (bodhisattvas or angels), or light itself.

Bonus

Mountain of Presence on the Spot
Audio Meditation From Miranda Macpherson

Your unconscious ego activity is often busy trying to fix or change your current state in one way or another — often without even realizing it. This keeps a sense of disconnection firmly in place as you live on the surface of your personality only. This meditation allows the surface agitation in body and mind to settle into stillness. Practiced over time, you’ll cultivate a felt sense of inner support and a quiet mind.

Bonus

Audio Dialogue With Miranda Macpherson and Russ Hudson

Russ Hudson, revered Enneagram teacher, co-author of The Wisdom of the Enneagram, and fellow Shift faculty, joins Miranda for a robust dialogue on what it truly means to walk the mystical path amidst the dizzying level of change and uncertainty of contemporary culture. You’ll learn to determine whether your practice is truly supporting your awakening process.

“Miranda is the epitome of what we most need in a postmodern spiritual guide...”

“If there is such a thing as angels walking the Earth, then Miranda is one.”
Miranda is the real deal. She is a standout as a spiritual teacher, and she is a stand up as an individual in that she truly walks her talk. Life is not perfect, and Miranda lives that with a grace and authenticity that is unparalleled by many teachers. If there is such a thing as angels walking the Earth, then Miranda is one. Do not be mistaken in assuming her softness and beauty is as deep as she goes. Miranda is a powerhouse and a force for change in this world.
Laura Bergman Fortgang
Author of Living Your Best Life
“Miranda is one of the clearest, purest, most eloquent voices for spiritual truth...”
Miranda is one of the clearest, purest, most eloquent voices for spiritual truth I know. She courageously shares both gritty challenges and lofty visions, and weaves them into powerful teachings from which we can all benefit.
Alan Cohen
Author of A Deep Breath of Life
“... a shining light.”
Miranda’s presence and teaching bring to life the spiritual wisdom of the ages. In my life, she is a shining light.
Susan Jeffers
Author of Feel the Fear and Do It Anyway
“Let the thirsty cup of your heart be filled...”
Miranda Macpherson is the hollow reed through which an enormously alive current of feminine wisdom flows. Let the thirsty cup of your heart be filled with this stream of practical, deliciously subversive, luminous nectar. Nondual awakening is not some detached and impersonal condition, but rather a warm and intimate state of being, generous and restful, drenched in grace.
Mirabai Starr
Author of Wild Mercy: Living the Fierce and Tender Wisdom of the Women Mystics
“I'm often sitting on the edge of my seat while listening...”
Miranda Macpherson is a brilliant teacher! Her combination of feminine grace, practical and totally down-to-earth tools, and her deep knowledge of the spiritual journey is so potent, particularly for long-time seekers. She provides a map, a very detailed instruction manual, while transmitting such a palpable depth of love and presence. I’m often sitting on the edge of my seat while listening, as Miranda masterfully articulates spiritual truths that I always somehow knew about, but nobody had communicated quite like she does. Thank you, Miranda, for all you had to go through on your own journey to be able to channel and pass on such wisdom treasures.

Miranda’s teachings are profound and cut through to the core. This comprehensive course is brilliant and reflects her profound understanding and also her years of experience working with students, so the material is built up in a safe way. Her presence is strong, compassionate, luminous, and full of integrity. I have softened to myself and others, and I’m experiencing the unraveling of my ego’s most limiting patterns. I am experiencing Grace daily. I will be eternally grateful.
