The principles we teach in PTCI are a deep dive into a variety of spiritual wisdom traditions and contemporary, complementary theories found in psychology and neuroscience about how we change and grow. This wide array of concepts and practices are really not found in any other training of which I am aware.
The Capstone program is designed for our advanced students who have taken the basic PTCI programs over the years, and are ready to continue their journeys toward wholeness, dedicated to personal growth and transformation to benefit oneself and to benefit others. The program’s goal is to deepen your mastery of the core principles and exercises taught in the PTCI foundational courses so that you “become the teachings” – confident and ready to live them more intentionally and share them with others.
Why this program may call to you:
- The first and most important reason to join this program is because you are eager to deepen your individual spiritual journey and personal growth and reunite with the PTCI community in a meaningful way. This is an opportunity to bring back together members of the PTCI community and learn from some of your long-term PTCI friends and colleagues who have walked the path of personal transformation and courage with you. It is also an opportunity to learn and benefit from Mark’s and my understanding and experience of these principles, which has matured, deepened, and expanded over the past twenty-five years of teaching and living this material.
- You may feel drawn to this program to deepen your understanding and experience of PTCI principles and use them in your current or future service to others. Because of the range and depth of the PTCI teachings, Mark and I have found that these teachings can be adapted to a variety of disciplines and audiences, meeting participants where they are and supporting them on the next step in their personal journeys of transformation.
- Remembering that we are “teachers” simply by the way we live our lives, you may feel drawn to this program to become a master teacher of the PTCI principles and practices. The Capstone program will guide you in using these materials in a variety of ways that you meet and engage others. It can include mentoring sessions with others, and/or lead or co-lead PTCI foundational programs. You have personally experienced how the PTCI foundational courses have deepened your Journey Toward Wholeness. Now, you may feel called to become masterful in teaching these principles to others and to guide them on their own Journey Toward Wholeness. Think about this: “knowing something deeply” and “being able to embody and teach it effectively” are two distinctly different skills. The challenge is to move from mastering the PTCI principles for your own transformation to becoming masterful in teaching PTCI principles to guide others on their own Journey Toward Wholeness.
Your intention in taking this program may include one or more of those goals. And you can be sure that by joining this Capstone Program you will be part of a special community of loving, supportive seekers, with high Ideals and a readiness to share themselves deeply and take the next step in their spiritual journeys.
The Capstone program will prepare you to be a leader in sharing this material, whether it’s simply by your way of Being, or working one-on-one with people in a spiritual mentoring process or eventually assembling small groups to work with you as the teacher, with the foundational PTCI courses, such as Vision and Courage.
Here are some of the growth opportunities this program offers you. These opportunities will arise from online webinar meetings of our group, one-on-one mentoring sessions with Mary Elizabeth, and participation in face-to-face and/or online multiple-day PTCI foundation courses.
- You will cultivate and master a deeper understanding of a wide array of spiritual approaches to personal transformation and healing,
- You will deepen your experiences of embodiment through practices that reveal the underlying oneness of all spiritual wisdom teachings,
- You will build on current areas of expertise and professional skills by adding a deeper conceptual understanding of PTCI principles and practices,
- You will build confidence in your unique style of imparting knowledge and wisdom to others on their spiritual paths,
- You will fulfill a calling to share PTCI principles and practices through individual mentoring and/or by teaching in a group setting.
- You will be prepared to step into your own calling as Mark and I move toward the culmination of our own work.
