Tipping Point Group Activities/Resources
Updated: 1/20/2025
The following are resources shared by community members that you might find interesting or helpful.
Study Groups
Spiritual Study Buddy
Study buddies have been used successfully by students for many years to support them in their learning processes. Several sets of Spiritual Study Buddies in our community are meeting regularly with activities such as discussing their spiritual work, meditating together, and to use as a sounding board for new concepts and planning future activities. Identify a potential buddy for your Tipping Point efforts from among your friends and try out this concept. You might find you want to create multiple buddies for different areas of your life.
Julian Study Groups

"You are Unique" Study Group
There is still room in a study group meeting on the last Friday of each month from 12:30 to 1:30 pm Eastern Time. This group is facilitated by Beverly Stern and uses Julian’s book, “You Are Unique” (1998, June K. Burke). For information, contact Beverly.
"Introduction to Meditation" Study Group
Here is an opportunity for a study group using Julian’s booklet, “Introduction to Meditation” (1995, June K. Burke). This wonderful booklet concisely and precisely defines meditation, its purpose and benefits. June Burke and her husband, Bill, developed this material to help people understand what meditation is and to help them find a method of entry suited to them. Several entry techniques are provided, along with guidance on follow-through and committing to the practice. For the beginner, experienced practitioner, or teacher, this booklet is a powerful tool for growth. For those interested in forming a study group, contact Camille Albrecht. She has copies of the booklet available at no charge for work group participants.

Ho’oponopono (Hawai'ian) prayer
The ho’oponopono prayer goes like this:
“I’m sorry, Please forgive me, Thank you, I love you.”
The word ho’oponopono roughly translates to “cause things to move back in balance” or to “make things right” or “cleanse” yourself of bad feelings. Chant the mantra repeatedly while sitting with your eyes closed, as a kind of meditation.

Mt. Shasta Trinity Ashram
It is the mission of the Shasta Trinity Ashram to establish a center of learning where intellectual and spiritual development go hand in hand, where a new science will be taught, based upon true knowledge of the fundamental laws of the Universe, and where at the same time students will be taught how to obtain mastery over themselves in preparation for service to humanity.
Through the activities of the Ashram its students will become instruments for service through the inspiration, incubation, illumination, and implementation of solution-oriented approaches to resolving the challenges facing humanity and our planet as a whole.
Additionally, in keeping with the teachings of the Ageless Wisdom, as outlined by the Tibetan, and building upon the mission statement, a major Ashram initiative will be establishing a relationship with the scientific community assisting in the synthesis of occult wisdom and scientific discovery.

In-Person Connections Light Circles with Camille Albrecht
Here is how Camille describes them. She would like to help others create these opportunities for connecting.
While Zoom classes are convenient, there’s something truly special about gathering in person. In West Michigan, I’m excited to reintroduce my in-person Connections Classes, now known as Connections Light Circle. You might even want to start a circle of your own!

• Frequency: Bi-weekly
• Duration: Approximately 1 hour
• Cost: Free (no room rental or attendance fees)
• RSVP: Not required
• Guests: Feel free to bring friends, family, or come alone - everyone is welcome!
Agenda
1. Opening Ritual: We begin by lighting a God candle to invite the Divine presence and state a shared affirmation to help us leave our daily concerns behind.
2. Presentation: I’ll offer a 15-20 minute talk on a spiritual topic, which may include insights from a Julian book or workshop, guidance from Aca’u (see posted Solstice and Equinox messages on my website), or open discussion on other topics suggested by participants.
3. Meditation and Healing: We’ll engage in a meditation followed by a collective healing session for the earth, our country, its leaders, its citizens, and those placed on our healing list.
These gatherings are designed to be simple, accessible, and profoundly impactful, creating positive energy for all participants and the wider world. If you're interested in starting a Connections Light Circle in your area and would like some guidance, please contact me. I’d be delighted to assist.
