ENROLL NOWWhat to expect — Online Level 1
CRT is a truly unique experience in that participants are encouraged to practice radical honesty in thought and feeling: to share thoughts, fears and judgments; to express emotions however feels true in the moment; and to clear out the backlog of repressed thoughts, fears, judgments and emotions that block us from real, deep connection.
We 10× the transformational power of these practices by performing them wholeheartedly in a room full of people committed to doing the same thing. The cost averages around $100 a session — or only $33 an hour for deeply transformational integration work we're told is "better than therapy" and "like finding gold". Online video classroom and course manual PDF included.
Course Contents & Training Manual
Founded in 1994 by transpersonal therapist and author Phil T. Mistlberger, Conscious Relationship Trainings (originally ‘Shamballa Society’) is a community that offers workshops and long term trainings on the Principles of Conscious Relationship. Formulated over thirty years of field work, Mistlberger's teachings are distilled here over 10 weeks of immersive group experiencing, with material derived from sources including Psycho-Spiritual Alchemy, Jungian shadow work, Red and White Tantra, A Course in Miracles, Family Systems Therapy, and more.
Sessions explore Conscious Relationship through applied shadow work, including:
- projections and ego-mind identification
- the familial roots of relationship patterns
- victim-mentality and co-dependence
- conscious ownership and personal power
- orienting toward something greater than oneself
The course manual is available to you at all times during and after the training. Conscious Relationship via the Teachings of Alchemy, Shadow-Work, Tantra, and ACIM is a deep dive into the history, theory and practice of Mistlberger's CRT formula including:
- Basic Principles of Conscious Relationship
- History and Theory of Spiritual Alchemy
- History and Theory of Tantra and Sex Magic
- The Ego, Identification, and Projection
- Relationship
- Sex, the Body, and Male-Female Gender Issues
- Pre-Trans Fallacy, Defence Mechanisms, the Shadow, and the Enneagram
- Meditation and Self-Realization
- Basics of Tantric Practice
- Principles of Happiness and Unhappiness
How to Participate
This is an experiential, highly participatory, and confidential training — expect to have your camera on, and to join in group activities and sharing including large group, small group, and dyads. To participate you will need privacy, a webcam and mic (or smartphone), and a reliable internet connection.
Attendance is required at all 10 sessions except in cases of (1) family emergency, (2) work emergency, (3) debilitating illness, or (4) non-exchangeable travel that was already booked at the time of enrollment up to a max of 2 missed sessions.
Arrive at each session 5 minutes early — fed, watered, and well-rested. We ask that participants not use drugs or alcohol the day of or the night before. Sessions begin promptly and there's a 10 minute break midway through.
Sessions sometimes run a few minutes overtime — stay if you can. Once the group is a bit more familiar, participants tend to hang around in the video room chatting for an hour or more afterward, which you are welcome to do.
Your facilitators and assistant teachers are there to help you — make use of them! You're welcome to contact the group leaders with questions throughout the training period, or for 1:1 sessions if you'd like more in-depth support.

Curious but not sure if it's for you?
If you're new to this work and its founder or to Georgianna and Steph, you might feel unsure. Contact Steph to see if the training is a good fit for you.
Online vs in-person — When COVID hit we had to move these powerful in-person trainings exclusively online. We had our doubts that it would work, but it did! This is owing to the fact that shadow work requires us to explore parts of ourselves we've repressed and hidden away — a potent practice even alone in your living room. More potent still in front of other people, whether on video or in person.
There is a certain interpersonal energetic element that can't be replicated online, but most of the energy raised during the training is a personal and internal affair anyway. If you can attend in person, you should — otherwise, online works well.
