ANYONE interested in deepening their understanding of Imetics methodology, and EVERYONE who wants to enhance their use of Imetics tools in daily life.
Our goal in this course is to provide an additional entrypoint to the foundational elements of Imetics methodology in order to better support your personal explorations in facilitated group experiences and daily life. In this online format, we have focused on forms that can be easily shared and discussed with others, both within our community and beyond it. We have also created and gathered a range of materials that can be accessible to different learning tendencies (such as for visual, audio, and kinesthetic learners), and we always want to know if there are additional types of materials you would find helpful.
Ultimately, we feel that Armand summed up our goal best when he said: "This is like if you were going to a mountain to hike. I’m the outfitter. You come to me, and I’m outfitting you for the trek. This is an internal trek, more of a spiritual trek than a physical one, but it has similarities."
We look very forward to hiking every step of this new adventure with you.
Dawn is the executive director of MomentsOfAwe.org and an experienced Imetics facilitator. She began her studies in Imetics in 2011, and has been working full-time with Dr. Bytton since 2013. She brings more than twenty-five years of experience in established self-discovery and integration techniques, as well as comprehensive studies of psychology, belief systems, indigenous traditions, therapeutic arts, and collaborative community building. She specializes in developing heart-based leadership models within nonprofit and social-enterprise settings, as well as individual consulting focused on the navigation of relational imbalances, sexual trauma, depression, and anxiety.
The course can be navigated through both:
- Self-guided study, with optional alumni Course Guide* support
- Live six-month courses facilitated by Dawn
*Course Guides are community members who have already completed the live course with Dawn and have an understanding of materials through their personal experience of being facilitated through the entire syllabus. For more information, see the answer below to: What is a "Course Guide"?
Self-guided study, with optional alumni support, is particularly helpful for individuals with independent-learning habits and complex daily schedules.
Live courses facilitated by Dawn are geared toward individuals who want to teach Imetics in their own client communities and guidance-related careers, and who can commit to the weekly work and participation needed to fully benefit from this focused six-month group experience.
Basic (self-guided) course membership ($45/mo*) includes access to:
All online course materials, which grow every month and currently include:
