ONLINE CLASS – SPIRIT SCHOOL COLLECTIVE
Free for Collective Members (Membership | $150/Month)
Monday, July 7
11:00Am PST / 2:00pm EST
We are at the edge of a paradigm shift, one where science is beginning to validate what many energy workers and healers have always known: that consciousness is not a byproduct of the brain, but the root of reality.
In this workshop, we’ll explore the foundational principles of postmaterialist science, a growing field that challenges the materialist view that consciousness is a side effect of biological functions and that only physical matter is real. This outdated model falls short in explaining the full scope of human experience, intuition, and energy healing.
Together, we’ll examine how energy, connection, and consciousness form the bedrock of our existence through a scientific lens.
Led by Will McDonald—PhD student in Mind-Body Medicine, researcher, energy worker, and intuition teacher—you’ll gain practical tools to apply this emerging science to your daily life and wellness practice.
What You’ll Learn
Why the materialist model, focused on symptom management, often fails to address the deeper roots of healing.
How a postmaterialist framework helps us understand emotions as energy in motion, and the heart and nervous system as energetic translators, not just isolated biological systems.
Why healing, wellness, and intuitive effectiveness are interconnected, and how this perspective supports a more dynamic, co-creative relationship with life.
Interactive Elements
A gentle, guided experience on working with emotions as energy, offering insight into how energy in motion is expressed through the body, and why that expression is essential for emotional and energetic health.
Nervous system regulation and wellness practices viewed through a postmaterialist lens, demonstrating how perception and insight shift when the body is supported.
A journaling and/or group reflection activity to help you recognize your unique energetic patterns, how they show up in your mind and body, and how to become more familiar with your own intuitive signals.
By exploring and applying the postmaterialist framework, we see that wellness, understood through the lens of energy, is key to unlocking our human potential. While the materialist model has brought valuable insights, it now limits our ability to care for the growing number of people experiencing mental and emotional overwhelm. At this stage in our evolutionary path, expanding beyond what we think we know is not just important—it’s essential to our survival.
I hope you join me and be part of this important conversation.
