Teachings from an Awakened Heart
Gatherings offered to groups anywhere in the world on invitation — whether you are part of a large group or seek a gathering for a smaller circle of seekers. Over 450 workshops on six continents, held in an atmosphere of safety, depth and confidentiality.

Welcome to ‘Teachings from an Awakened Heart’. It is my deepest longing to uncover even deeper awakenings within my own heart, in service to you who long to re-discover your own awakened heart.
Shavasti shines when he teaches. Anyone who has attended one of his 450 or more workshops witnesses a mature teacher able to hold a safe space whilst being his most inspired self, weaving together profound truths with deep healings that truly transform lives.
A workshop with Shavasti is an experience where you can meet yourself as your heart, seeing yourself through the eyes of one of the most richly experienced spiritual teachers, seers and healers of our times.
Join Shavasti in an exploration of healing the heart without masks or pretences, in a way that will lead you to discover your authentically grounded heart.
The centre of our being is our heart, not the mind. It is within this centre that we touch the inner sanctum of our being and can experience what the sages of old have given many names: the presence, the beloved, God, the All That Is.
Come with your relationship difficulties, your doubts and your pain, your fears and grief, and allow yourself to be shown an authentic way of healing the heart that will touch you in ways you cannot anticipate.
During this workshop
Shavasti weaves together many years of experience with Family Constellations, shamanic practice, bodywork and energy healing to give you a profound and safe container of world-class quality.
Advanced Family Constellations training
This training is designed for therapists, healers and Family Constellation practitioners, trainees and aspirants who seek to deepen their experience with finding solutions for systemic entanglements and ancestral healing — whether in a workshop setting or when working one to one with clients. It will profoundly change the way in which you work with your clients.
