Judith Pennington
• Founder of the Institute for the Awakened Mind
• Certified Awakened Mind Practitioner and Practitioner Trainer
• Co-developer of the Mind Mirror 6 with Vilistus
• Author, singer
Judith Pennington is the founder of the Institute for the Awakened Mind and a certified Awakened Mind Practitioner and Practitioner Trainer. She assisted Anna Wise in her thrice-yearly seminars at Esalen Institute from 2006 until Anna's passing in 2010 and has since dedicated her life to the furtherance of the Awakened Mind and higher states of awareness.
Co-developer of the Mind Mirror 6 with Vilistus software engineer Steve Clark, Judith has won the TransTech 200 award for IAM for the past two years. This month she will travel to the conference to represent the Mind Mirror among the leading innovators and entrepreneurs in the health and wellness field.
She is particularly interested in gamma brainwaves and has shared her discoveries with the IAM community during webinars and in the User Manual and Practitioner Training Manual, as well as on the IAM website.
Of equally great interest to her is the field of research. She spearheaded IAM's current research partnerships with The Monroe Institute and iAwake, and seeks to expand these efforts. She promotes the Mind Mirror and Awakened Mind training in order to attract clients and students to this work as a means of supporting Awakened Mind Coaches and Practitioners throughout the world. As part of that effort, she has spent the past two years exploring the possibility of a frontal Awakened Mind pattern. She believes that if a frontal Awakened Mind pattern produces the same mind-expanding results as in the back of the head, the easy hookup on the forehead would bring the Mind Mirror 6 into global prominence.
A professional journalist, singer, and the author of two books, four meditation CDs, and two websites (thestillsmallvoice.org and oneworldspirit.org) published prior to IAM, she is the writer of the Mind Mirror 6 User Manual, the Awakened Mind Self-Training Guide, the IAM website, and the "Eureka Times" newsletter located on this website.

Oxana Bondarchuk
• Certified Awakened Mind Practitioner
• Moderator of IAM Online Events and Designer of Eureka Times Newsletter
• Gr. Dipl. In Psychology, Teacher of Psychology, Dipl. in Transpersonal Psychology
• Ex Business Trainer and Marketing Executive at international corporations.
Oxana was born in Moscow (USSR at that time) into a family of engineers. She studied English from the age of 7 and two other languages—Dutch and French—at the prestigious Russian Economic Academy. In 1998, she graduated with a Russian Diploma in Finance from the Russian Economic Academy and a Bachelor's Degree in International Marketing Management from the International Business School of Hanzehogeschool, Hoheschool van Groningen, the Netherlands.
Beginning in 1997, she worked for three international corporations in marketing, research, finance, public relations, and business training. In the midst of burnout and depression, she rose like a phoenix from the corporate world and turned her attention to what makes her soul sing: study of the brain and human consciousness. In 2004, she was graduated from Moscow's Institute of Psychoanalysis with a degree in Psychology and a second diploma in Transpersonal Psychology. Her final thesis on "Consciousness Transformation" and the work of Anna Wise ultimately led to her study and certification as an Awakened Mind Consciousness Trainer in June of 2017.
Oxana's interpersonal skills, coupled with her keen observation abilities and talent for data analysis, make her a rising star in this work. You have seen her aesthetically presented and highly organized (volunteer) work in creating this website, IAM's webinar program, and the "Eureka Times" newsletter.

UPCOMING EVENTS
What's on this month?
All Consciousness Explorers Welcome to Webinar (LIVE ZOOM):
ENERGY PERSPECTIVE OF TRAUMA
by Oxana Bondarchuk
Transpersonal psychologist/neurofeedback student Oxana Bondarchuk presents a timely program in taking a wider and deeper look at personal and collective trauma. She found that she could not fully embrace her role in a helping profession without first healing her own trauma, even though she was not aware of any particularly shocking precipitating event. She felt that her life experiences were perfectly normal, yet she was an extremely sensitive person, which energetic sensitivity is often an outcome of trauma. In this program, she shares what she found in herself as it relates to every consciousness explorer. Oxana will talk about the deep energetic essence of trauma and whether there is a precipitating factor to it or the trauma relates to being an imperfect human in our limiting and traumatizing world.
Because alpha-theta trauma healing is foundational to Awakened Mind development, she will suggest ways to approach this work in yourself and others, covering the types of trauma; subjective and objective Mind Mirror indicators of trauma; how to deal with trauma as a therapist or someone in a helping profession; and whether trauma can be healed energetically and in the mind and body.
This program is recommended for sensitive people interested in the subject and/or how to deal with it as part of their helping profession as well as anyone interested in personal growth. If you are a trauma professional or expert on this subject, you are warmly invited to complement the program with your knowledge and insight.

We will also have another session of the Mind Mirror Meditation Club this month, where we try new meditation and analyze the brainwaves. On November 26, we will analyze and experience "The Pyramid" meditation from "Far Journeys" album by Max Cade's friend, Geoff Blundell. For more information, go to The Mind Mirror Meditation Club.

Revisit our last program on Energy Reading
5. Energy Reading And The Mind Mirror:
It's All About Perspective - 2
Our previous program on Energy Reading and the Mind Mirror (click to watch if you have not seen it) was stimulated by the COVID-19 virus. Did we get the lesson? A year later, transpersonal psychologist Oxana Bondarchuk revisits this topic with new insights and understanding of energy as well as helpful keys and anchors on how to sustain our mental health and further awaken our awareness in these even more turbulent times.
Besides (mental) health itself, we will review these subjects from an energetic perspective: life as well as truth, healing, stress, crisis, depression, disease, trauma, perception, attention, fear, uncertainty, creativity, and spirituality.
We'll refresh metaphors behind Mind Mirror brainwave patterns and look into the universal laws of energy flow (as described by Berth Hellinger known for his Family and Systemic Constellations work as well as Movements of the Spirit-Mind) to see how they correspond to Mind Mirror brainwave categories interaction.
We'll play with short exercises and meditations to test and challenge your perspectives (including navigating the brainwaves on demand) to help you go beyond the ordinary, mundane, and material. Lastly, you will experience the Personal Transformation meditation from the Mind Mirror Portal's Meditation Center to help you develop energy vision and better manage your energy resources, thus improving your ability with withstand stress.
