The Awareness Barn is a magical place, where conscious interacting and contact with the plant, animal and spirit realms is the norm. Resting in the arms of inner and outer silence, deep respite and resourcing simply happen by means of interaction with the natural world and the larger energetic field. In this space, we find deep intra-psychic connection within ourselves and also are given the opportunity to be consciously relational with one another.
Located 10 minutes from downtown Santa Rosa, California atop a lovely knoll on Sonoma Mountain, the Awareness Barn overlooks the Bennett Valley and Bennett Peak to the east and Taylor Mountain to the west. The property's meditation gardens and panoramic views offer the peace and tranquility of a world apart.

What other say about the Awareness Barn:
"The Awareness Barn is a special place, filled with the love and spiritual vibration and sense of safety that make it an ideal atmosphere for doing inner work." ~Judith Blackstone, Founder, Realization Process The Awareness Barn is the perfect place for retreats and workshops. It is super quiet and intimate. It's a place where people can find their personal space while staying connected with the rhythms of nature. Claire takes meticulous care of everything while respecting the privacy of each group. I highly recommend it to all teachers and facilitators. ~Peter Fenner, Ph.D, Founder, Timeless Wisdom and Radiant Mind, www.wisdom.org "The Awareness Barn has an ecumenical feel inside, with statues, photos and altars honoring various spiritual leaders of many traditions. The space is open and inviting with an energy that feels very meditative. A perfect place for intimate gatherings and sacred explorations." ~Dorothy Hunt, Spiritual Director, Moon Mountain Sangha, www.dorothyhunt.org "When I arrived at the Awareness Barn for the first time, I was greeted by a young fox and then a young buck. I felt I was coming to Assisi and would soon be meeting Saint Francis." ~Susan Harper, Founder, Continuum Montage "The Awareness Barn is a spiritual haven, imbued with a healing, inspired vibration, not only from Claire's presence, but also from the many amazing teachers and students who have explored the wonders of the human experience within those walls. I personally feel that The Awareness Barn has been a significant piece of my own transformation." ~Jon Hansen, Spiritual mentor/guide, www.therememberingroom.com |
