The Presence

Isira lives and radiates Presence. She invites you to enter into the power of your own living presence.

The Presence - A living meditation - is a foundational practice…a potent and fundamental method to engage fully in the NOW, and BE in your own Presence.

The Presence I - Awakening in Presence
2-Day Program

In this 2-day non-residential weekend you will directly experience the freedom and potential of your true Self.
You will be given clear and effective tools to:

transform pain, past hurts, blocks and other challenges
bring love and awareness into your everyday life and relationships now
go forward in living a life of peace, happiness and liberation

Through meditation and awareness the practice focuses on integrating the state of Presence – so that you become the actual experience. This anchors the tools of The Presence as a living application to respond to life from your liberated Self. No longer do you have to remain in the meditation room to be present. This is potent, powerful and life-changing.

Isira will teach you clear steps to utilize the kundalini, through breathwork, meditation and centring your attention in the conscious Self. You will align with specific energies and become fully present and fully alive. You will learn to recognize the energy of being totally present now, living in The Presence, and also the energetic cues for when you forget. This is vital to attain a true state of transformation and awakening. You will be shown how to integrate the living stillness and the living flow of kundalini energy into your everyday life. You will be truly in your power... living in the now, living in The Presence. Your whole life will be changed – for the better!

During this 2-day program you will be receiving Shaktipat. This is a potent activation and acceleration of conscious awakening through the transmission of direct liberation energy. This powerful energy transmission activates, supports and amplifies your deepest potential and essence of Self Awakening.

Although there are no "instant coffee" solutions to anyone's journey, with your dedication and willingness to apply the simple tools in everyday living, your life will become filled with Peace, Love, Truth and Freedom.

Katja White

I felt a large shift in my consciousness from being totally in the head (mind) to being able to truly connect/rest my attention totally in my body- especially the heart chamber... It’s as though I’ve woken from a sleep and now there is a real choice in whether I want to fall back into believing the stories/illusion.
Cheryl Wright

It has again made me REALISE just how powerful the practice is...and the enormity of its benefits.

Thank you Isira for changing my life, showing me the way to my heart’s truth

By the end, the stillness of the mind...WOW
Mark McAlpine

I thought (ha) the more I learnt, experienced, that I would move closer to the source, a process over a long lifetime. I never imagined a doorway to the source that is always there, anyway, quietly gently there. There is no other way! How simple and profound!
Patrice Kennedy Artist and Carer

The depth of the experience as Presence is beyond words- it feels like Heaven on Earth
Elmira

Why Re-attend The Presence?

We asked Isira why it helps to re-attend The Presence again and again and again, even when we are applying ourselves to it, in our everyday lives and she said:

“The human journey in nature is one of evolution. At each stage we are able to absorb according to our degree of openness. As we enter a new level of opening and apply ourself we reach certain degrees of integration until we are ready to open more. This is not an instant coffee process; it is a journey.

Each time you invite yourself into The Presence you do so from a new moment, a new perspective, and with greater potential. You are able to receive more deeply what you could not before. When you first sit a spark ignites and begins to grow. When you sit again that spark catches on, it becomes a fire. When you sit again and again and again it becomes a blazing flame that cannot be extinguished.

Repetition creates a power in the process of manifestation that accumulates according to our activities. Having been so deeply conditioned humanity is habitually giving repetition to the mind, to being out of the centre of Presence. Hence why most people feel their lives are so disconnected from sustained love, joy and freedom. The spark that was caught alight is smothered again. When you give repetition to The Presence you create a very powerful flow in your life for deeper integration, to truly live as your greatest potential in all things in every moment. You go deeper, higher and wider. You become the stillness of the mountain, the flow of the river. You become the blazing consciousness bringing light to all things.

Anyone who is truly sincere in the intent to BE living Presence will follow the course of repetition. All of the Masters have done so and have given the same path, the same advice. It is simply the natural course to follow. For it is only when we revisit our conscious Self over and over that we truly come to know it in every degree of our being. Then we bring our true Self, the gift we are, to the whole world.”

Testimonials of those who have re- attended The Presence

An ever deepening... I feel such gratitude to have a teacher who can bring me a technique honed over lifetimes of experience- a practice that enables me and others to awaken as quickly as possible. In its simplicity and potency, the Presence is clearly a method of streamlining spiritual life to its core.
Joya-Rose McIntyre editor

It is so obvious that the repetition and commitment to this process of The Presence leads to a natural and beautiful evolution. Bit by bit story dissolves and awakening progresses. Patanjali’s yoga sutras supports this by saying that for us to reach the state of union, it requires practice without attachment, consistency and faith. In other words, do the practice, experience it and keep moving until you arrive in the union of form and formless, space and place, movement and stillness. This is where Isira leads us with such authority, such simplicity and clarity, such efficiency, such beauty. I will be taking every chance I can to sit in the Presence of Presence until I fully radiate the Presence of Presence free of resistance.
Danny Freemantle of Divine Wellbeing, Yoga Centre owner and instructor

Even after so many weekends of The Presence, I still get so much and insights into different aspects of myself/of the all.
Edwina Van Der Westhuizen Director, Business owner

The Presence II - Manifesting in Presence
2-day program

At this level of the practice you begin to KNOW that you are creator.

You will:

directly experience your inner power and consciousness – heart awareness and Presence
be able to manifest your dreams, consciously, from your inner power
transform and dissipate unconscious manifesting loops and circumstances

Isira facilitates specific energetic and meditative practices that align you directly with the power to manifest consciously.
She introduces a breath meditation called Full Phase Breathing which is an ancient practice from the time of Shamballa, based on sacred geometry and quantum energy. Isira shows how it can be used as a precursor to anchoring into deep Presence and from this state you intend and create that which your heart desires.

“Truth lights the candle of all our dreams and hopes – but it is only when you KNOW and LIVE the truth that it makes all those dreams and hopes REAL.” Isira.

The Presence II gives you the power to KNOW and LIVE your greatest truth.

The Presence Retreat - general information



	This retreat (usually over 5 days and 4 nights) provides an optimum environment of support and facilitation to saturate yourself in the connected state of Presence. You cultivate continued opening and expanding of your true being which is limitless, eternal and awake. You will be engaging with silent and guided meditation - specifically applying the practice of The Presence, kundalini energy work, pranayama ( breath consciousness and energy work), yoga, some toning and chanting. Isira will guide us further to deepen and expand through conscious dialogue, questions and answers and activities of sense awareness to integrate the experience of The Presence as a living continuum.

The dominant focus will be establishing yourself in the deep stillness and flow of The Presence meditation. The other activities are to support and assist the deepest alignment with The Presence.

It is a much deeper integration of the tools explored in the previous sessions.

Your integration is directly related to your dedication to applying yourself to BE the Presence that you are. No words can describe this state. You are the living meditation, The Presence.

The Presence I Retreat – Transforming in Presence

Working with the foundation practice – The Presence – we dive deeply into what it means to live in this state. We take the principles to a deeper level by expanding on the practical application. Each exercise can lead us to new and profound levels: witnessing awareness is increased, centred presence is deepened, opening of the heart expands and we find ourself in a more sustainable state of walking, breathing, living awareness. Profound insights occur and former blocks and limitations dissolve as you make a clear connection with your essential self. This is the state of power that underpins every quest for mastery.

The Presence I (2-Day Progam ) is a pre-requisite to attending The Presence I Retreat

The Presence II Retreat - Living in Presence

Following on from The Presence II program we once again take the principles and exercises to a deeper level. In this retreat you saturate yourself in the state of Self Mastery and conscious manifestation. By deepening and expanding your state you continue the journey of seeing, feeling and experiencing yourself as the creator. This is no longer about the hope to feel and know the power in the unity between our self and the universe as one: this is the experience. It is no longer about your prayers for all you dream of. This is where YOU become the creator of all you can dream of.

The Presence II (2-Day Program) is a pre- requisite to attending The Presence II Retreat
