The Spiritual Healing Journey
A 5-Month Intensive to Explore the Spiritual Dimension of Healing Individual, Ancestral, and Collective Trauma and Wounding
Registration for this course is now closed.
An Invitation from Thomas Hübl
Dear Friends,
I want to invite you to join me in an all-new 5-month immersive program called The Spiritual Healing Journey where we will explore how the spiritual dimension plays an integral role in all types of healing, including individual, ancestral, and collective trauma.
In every type of trauma where there is an inappropriate relationship, we see an underlying spiritual component that often gets overlooked or ignored. Inside this new course, we will help you to connect your spiritual path to trauma healing and if you work with clients, also help you to see how it can be used as a resource in sessions.
The other major theme includes the effects of trauma in spiritual contexts such as religious institutions, spiritual communities, and larger societal movements such as the suppression of feminine spirituality in patriarchal structures. These types of spiritual traumas directly affect a person’s inner compass and ability to trust their own perceptions.
For the most part, as a society we have not yet addressed how to heal spiritual traumas, which inherently require deep ethical restoration. We will explore together how to work with this type of wounding so that our innate self-healing mechanism, the fabric of life, can be reactivated again, to return us to wholeness.
Here’s an overview of the 5-month curriculum and of our 10 LIVE sessions:
Session 1: Building a Framework for Spiritual Healing
Session 2: Pathways and Practices to Create a Direct Connection
Session 3: The Spiritual Dimension of Healing Individual Trauma
Session 4: The Spiritual Dimension of Healing Trauma at the Ancestral Level
Session 5: The Spiritual Dimension of Healing Trauma at the Collective Level
Session 6: Creating Ethical Restoration and Soul-Aligned Solutions
Session 7: Reawakening Our Spiritual Connection with the Earth and All Living Beings
Session 8: Special Application – The Meeting of Psychotherapy and Spirituality
Session 9: Special Application – Science, Mysticism, and Spirituality
Session 10: Embracing the Spiritual Journey and Stewardship of the Soul
This course will be experiential in nature and you will explore specific topics as a group as well as hearing from guest experts at the forefront of this field.
In each session, you will also receive practices, frameworks, and guided meditations to create a stronger connection to our higher sources of wisdom.
If this speaks to you, we hope you will join us.
In appreciation,
Thomas Hübl
Founder, The Academy of Inner Science
P.S. We offer this type of online immersion program only once per year. Being together for 5 months allows us enough time and space for deeper work. Our previous courses have brought together people who feel called to be of service in these times, including therapists, coaches, consultants, organizational leaders, educators, medical professionals, alternative healing practitioners, and others.
“Every trauma has a spiritual component,whether it is fully recognized or not. When we access and bring in the spiritual dimension we can accelerate the full healing for ourselves and our clients.”
Thomas Hübl
What is The Spiritual Healing Journey?
The Spiritual Healing Journey is the meta-view of our life as an evolutionary process. This path includes our spiritual and growth practices such as meditation or the work we do in the world to serve and inspire others.
We will explore the following:
- How spirituality can be a valuable resource in healing individual, ancestral, and collective trauma
- Methods for creating stronger connections to our higher self
- Creating restoration and healing for those who have suffered spiritual or religious trauma
- Coming together in community to address large-scale historical wounds
- Our shared responsibility to engage in both personal and collective spiritual work
Spiritual healing means activating the connection with spirit or higher self as a resource for ourselves and for the work we do with others. It also means embodying core spiritual principles that act as an inner guidance system.
The Intersection of Trauma Healing, Psychotherapy, and Spiritual Practice
More and more, the role of spirituality in healing is being recognized and integrated in various fields, including psychotherapy, addiction recovery, and medicine. Inside the program, we will look at how our spiritual journey can influence our path of transformation and be a powerful resource in working with trauma and wounding.
When we include the spiritual dimension in healing work, we are able to access information from the soul level as well as from our body and our ancestral lineage. It is this unique combination that opens new insights and can accelerate our growth and healing.
Of course, it is important to guard against spiritual bypassing, both on our own path and when we work with clients. Thomas and guest speakers will address this risk and offer guidance for how to recognize when spirituality is being used to avoid rather than face our traumas.
Whether we follow a particular religion or tradition, or whether our spiritual path is more self-directed, with proper guidance and care we can draw upon deeper spiritual wisdom and insights when navigating the difficult terrain of personal, ancestral, and collective traumas.
Embodying Core Spiritual Principles
Within all religious or spiritual systems are universal principles that form the basis for ethical guidelines. These principles offer us a way to activate the natural inner guidance from our soul.
When we connect with and embody true ethics and universal law, then we don’t need externalized rules because we will genuinely want to feel and live in alignment with these higher values.
During the 10 LIVE sessions in this program we’ll explore the following principles:
“A greater ethics of spirituality is simply learning to listen to the natural inner guidance from the Soul.”
