Peter Bedard
You know how impossible it seems to heal at times? How some people live in fear of never being able to heal their pain and end up relying on drugs and surgery to survive? Well, Peter has healed himself of everything from chronic anxiety to arthritis, asthma, fibromyalgia, depression, sciatica, and he’s died before and come back to a body wracked in pain, a mind trapped in fear, and a spirit broken. He’s healed from all this and more and he can help you to do the same.
Peter is a consultant at the Huberman Lab at Stanford University and he has a MA in Consciousness Studies. He has helped thousands of people heal. Through his expertise working with anxiety, addiction, and pain (physical, emotional, spiritual) Peter has developed a tried and true process for creating your own path to wellness, Convergence Healing, and he can help you (www.ConvergenceHealing.com). Throughout his personal healing process Peter discovered the power of holistic therapies.
With this understanding he has created a thriving one-on-one private practice, workshops, and talks. He teaches around the world and he has an online healing tea store, Convergence Healing Teas, that is filled with delicious healing tea blends that take advantage of the traditional healing qualities Mother Nature has for us through roots, barks, leaves, flowers, spices, herbs, and teas. This is yet another way that Peter brings wellness to people. His lovingly crafted teas can be found at www.ConvergenceHealingTeas.com.

Russell Feingold
Russell Feingold is a respected and renowned Earth-honoring ceremonialist, shamanic sound healer, and author who has dedicated the past 25 years to the pursuit, study, and practice of the healing arts. His pursuit of truth and natural healing ultimately led him into the potent and magical world of Peruvian Shamanism. It was here that his heart felt at home, as he was initiated into the life-long study of these sacred ways by internationally acclaimed shamanic teacher Don Oscar Miro-Quesada Solevo — respected Kamasqa Curandero and Altomisayoq adept.
Russell furthered his “education” under the guidance of Maestro Curandero Ricardo Amaringo, a revered ceremonialist and Shipibo shaman, in which he completed a rigorous apprenticeship in the Shipibo lineage of Amazonian plant medicine at Nihue Rao Centro Espiritual. Russell is also the founder of Heart Wisdom and The Fellowship of Vine, which are devoted to restoring safety and sacredness back into the heart of humanity, as we “restore the sacred trust between our humanity and the natural world” (~ Don Oscar). Recognized for bringing some of the most powerful ceremonial and transformational work to the transformational community,, Russell’s work seeks to honor the integrity of these indigenous cultures and traditions while serving as a bridge to make them accessible to those who are called, without diluting the inherent potency of these sacred medicines and practices.
He is also the author of Heart Wisdom, and has recently released his first solo flute album aptly entitled Savor Eternity. More important than all his credentials, however, is the fact that Russell is a loving human being who deeply cares about people and Pachamama — Mother Earth — and all her creatures. He is a master at nurturing community using the gifts of humor, insight, and compassion, as he impeccably and magically weaves a safe and sacred space so that hearts, bodies, minds and souls can be healed to further the evolution of our earth-bound tribe towards peace, unity, and wellbeing.

Markabadi
Markabadi is a wellbeing specialist, focused on creating space for advancing personal excellence and wellness. He is a Holistic Somatic Therapist, Spiritual Life Coach, Event Producer, Meditation teacher and Author.
As a public speaker Markabadi has lectured across the globe in the science of energy medicine and the quantum consciousness of wellbeing, teaching and coaching 1000s.
He’s been lead producer on many large (and smaller) in person (and online) festivals, conferences and gatherings. He is a ‘scaler’ and a diligent multitasker, managing multiple diverse teams to coordinate the synergised symphony of the creative process.
His current passion is in empowering social permaculture and systems change at every level. He is a dedicated sacred space holder for the greatest transition of Human evolution towards courage, compassion, collaboration and community.
He’s currently living in the Bay Area, California, USA
In The Beginning:
Markabadi was born and raised in Manchester, England. After a chance meeting with a spiritual teacher at age 14, Mark began his inner exploration through meditation and philosophical investigation. He went on to red two degrees in Psychology focusing on health as well as multiple diplomas in Holistic and complementary medicine.
Early Work:
While studying Psychology, Markabadi observed a gap in the curriculum, the holistic nature of being was missing. Applying research techniques he dove into the study of complementary holistic therapy techniques, including reflexology, nutrition, aromatherapy and deep tissue massage. Markabadi joined a research institute exploring the physics of energy medicine. Working with this center he travelled to India and began presenting at scientific conferences across the globe. Markabadi hosted conferences and workshops in Singapore, South Africa and USA. He spent 10 years researching the electromagnetic nature of wellbeing. Around the same time he also began teaching meditation and spiritual life coaching.
Along the way he realised his ability to disseminate intricate theory in a fun, entertaining and creative way. He is a born stage performer, making the complex simple and exciting. His passion for the truth and reality comes through in his live performances and now his writings. Having lectured at international conferences on energy medicine and holistic integrated health, he was invited to host several conferences and teach on the new module in Energy Medicine, part of the Masters in Wellness at RMIT University in Australia.
Therapy Practice:
Markabadi also developed a unique integrative holistic platform called Psychapressure, providing space for people to shift their non-serving habit patterns. This is an interactive journey into the person’s pain to allow them to ‘burn in the fires of change’. Its principles include: there is nothing to fix, simple self acceptance, honoring your emotions and surrendering to the truth of who you are. You can find out more about this on the Somatic Therapy Massage page
In 2008 Markabadi began to collate his research on Science, Spirituality and Self. He’s an expert on the interactive nature of the body’s energy systems and at maximising change through a multileveled therapy practice. With a great interest in how space resonates with Human health, happiness and wellbeing. In November 2012 after many years of working, Markabadi published his first book ‘evolve’. “It was difficult”, says Markabadi, “to know what to leave out. I have so much to share and I’m realising more and more daily. Evolve is a handbook for well being, it embodies the principles of complete happiness, freeing people from the thoughts of who they should be, so that they can be themselves!” – Take a look inside his book
In 2014 Markabadi moved to California, United States to connect with community and build structures to support and serve wellbeing. He has been involved deeply in event production and continues to bring people together around the common goal of community support and service. He produced 5000 person Yoga festivals as well as small 500 person gatherings. He ran social and environmental justice campaigns for non profits, as well as cultural festivals and online conferences.
In 2020 Markabadi began a live online interview show exploring the effects of COVID on luminaries and wisdom keepers. He conducted over 100 1hr interviews. While conducting these interviews he further realized the benefits of how enquiry serves to offer a healing space for people. Remembering the key Carl Jung said “The greatest gift we can give anyone is the space to be heard”.

Applying the knowledge and tools from these sciences firmed her belief that health is a mind body spirit journey that evolves through our lifetimes.
Rita and her husband raised their two daughters in Aspen and Carbondale, Colorado. Their choice of living environment immersed them in the natural world – hiking, camping, skiing, cycling, gardening and opened them to the world of the Nuche the original people of the land. Learning from the indigenous continues to be a passion in Rita’s life.
In 2003 Rita joined with a group of local practitioners who dedicated their energies to form a non-profit educational organization dedicated to presenting programs, workshops, seminars, films in integral health. Now located in Third Street Center in Carbondale the organization is fully embracing its mission by assuming the name The Center for Human Flourishing and utilizes the Integral Health model evolved by Dr. Elliott Dacher in his book Integral Health The Path to Human Flourishing.
The original name of the organization Davi Nikent, the Nuche words meaning “Always Light” is held now as the byline. After years of struggling with the roller coaster of weight gain and weight loss Rita adapted a plant based whole foods lifestyle and continues to enjoy robust health and well-being.
The Center for Human Flourishing advocates and supports programs and practitioners that advocate for this lifestyle for personal health and for the health of the planet. The aspects of the Integral Health model are held equally in the programming presented at the center; Biological (nutrition, fitness and self-regulation) Psychospiritual, Interpersonal, Worldly.

Pat Montgomery
Pat Montgomery (born Pat Clancy) was the seventh of eight children born of Irish immigrants in Pittsburgh, PA in 1934. At the age of 13, she began her life in the convent of the Sisters of Divine Providence, a teaching order of religious nuns, and she remained with them until age 25. Her teaching career then switched to public schools.
When they wed, Jim Montgomery and she searched for an alternative school for their two children but found none. So, they started Clonlara in 1967 as a campus school in Ann Arbor, MI.
Today, it has branched out to places all over the world. In addition to its campus school, it is a distance learning center, home education center, and a counseling program for independent alternative schools in numerous countries. (See www.Clonlara.org)

Micki O’Brien
@Micki.OBrien.Integral has a vision of a world in which every person is aligned in their education. She believes in an education that supports each person’s unique neurology, passions, strengths, and authentic connection within all of life. She sees education as more of an ecosystem, less of a mechanical factory system like conventional education.
Micki barely survived her high school conventional education experience. She attended college at a Jesuit university, where she dove deep into social and environmental justice, non-violence, disability rights, and decolonization. Then she went on to work on environmental issues and disability rights in Budapest, Hungary, and then to a Master’s Program in Environmental Leadership at Naropa University (a Buddhist-inspired contemplative education institution).
At Naropa Micki was involved in national and international movements of alternative and environmental education. She realized that there already exists effective models for connected, self-empowered education across the globe. She studied with powerful, tuned-in, life-full teachers who supported her in beginning to heal herself, and to grok that there is no “silver-bullet” answer to how to “do” education.
A Naropa mentor introduced Micki to Ken Wilber’s work with Integral Theory, and she immediately began applying it in alternative education settings. This led to her Master’s thesis: An Integral Perspective on Education Systems.
Micki has been meditating daily for 23 years and believes that her inner work is the foundation for a healthy world, especially as it helps to provide a coherent/aligned field for children. She went through Montessori teacher training (and has a whole-being understanding of it), and has worked with the young ones who conventional schools deemed broken. To go deeper into this field, and improve her efficacy, Micki became an Advanced Nurtured Heart Approach® Trainer, and a strengths-based autism expert. Interestingly, she found this put her at odds with the “gold-standard” of autism treatment, Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).
Presently she’s building a Montessori-inspired farm school in Hawai’i called The Sovereign Heartland (.com). On a global level, she’s nurturing and supporting the Integral Education Ecosystem, a network where individuals can find alignment for their own, unique learning.

She-She O’Donnell
She-She is a Life, Love & Relationship Coach and Angel Intuitive with over 20 years of experience.
After a series of synchronistic events where the Universe guided her in 2001, she moved from Chicago to Los Angeles to deepen her intuitive abilities and to share her music. From a young age she always had what felt like gifts from God and just an innate “knowing” and being able to hear angels whispering in her ear the important things that people she loved needed to hear, that helped take away their stress and fear and bring them back into a space of peace, love, and connection with God.
Throughout many courses, workshops, and constant self-practice and study, she learned how to take her natural abilities and focus in with the guidance of high vibrational angels and guides to assist people in moving through their inner obstacles to gain clarity. It is truly a deep joy she feels in being able to assist people in this way. To be able to facilitate divine guidance for people brings her at least as much joy and peace as her thousands of clients from all over the world are also experiencing after their readings or coaching sessions with her.
As a Divine Lifestyle Consultant, she guides clients to design the highest version of their “Divine Life” and offers retreats, workshops, events and a year-long Divine Life Mastery Program to help people connect with their own divinity and to live a fun and heart-centered life free from the effects of fear.

Pratim is a student of life and his dream is to create an Open Source Religion which catalogs the multiple paths that lead to more joy and reduced suffering in human life. In 2017, after a failed marriage and dropping out of a top MBA program, this dream went from being merely an intellectual pursuit to a deeper engagement with the spiritual traditions from around the world in mind, body and spirit. This is when he found Tantra, arguably an open source religion from ancient India and its practices infused life into the words that all spiritual traditions have been pointing at. For the first time he lifted his gaze from the map that he was staring at all along and looked at the terrifying yet enchanting terrain. Pratim has lived in consensus based intentional communities for about a decade and is a software engineer by day.

Cynthia Rose
Cynthia Rose has been studying and practicing alternative methods of healing since the spring of 2014, when she experienced a rather… ahem… extreme and instantaneous shift in consciousness. Cynthia’s path toward becoming a Holistic Healing Arts Practitioner began as a result of her persistent efforts to find answers and solutions to the health challenges she had faced her whole life, since being born with a primary immune deficiency. Strange physical symptoms and chronic pain patterns were manifesting one on top of the other, and the complexity of the clinical presentation didn’t match any identifiable cause. When Cynthia realized that Western medicine was not offering her the help she needed to truly heal, she sought the assistance of an Alternative Healthcare Professional, who reminded her that she possessed the power to heal herself. In one sentence, a whole new world of possibility revealed itself to her, when Dr. Bob stated to her, “You mean you USED to have an immune deficiency…” From that moment on, a whole new world of possibility opened up, and she discovered that her path was one of becoming a healing arts practitioner to others.
In the summer of 2014 the world of quantum healing opened itself to her with her first seminar in Matrix Energetics, and from that point on, her deeper work began. Cynthia Rose is a Certified Emotion Code Practitioner, Certified Healing Touch Practitioner Apprentice, Certified Shamanic Practitioner, Certified Usui Reiki level 1&2 Practitioner, and Certified Master Teacher of the Navajo Featherway.
Cynthia Rose also has extensive training and experience with Quantum Healing, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapies, amongst many other Holistic Modalities. She currently operates her Multi-Modality Holistic Healing Arts Practice from Cynthia Rose Healing Arts Sanctuary, located in Monument, Colorado.

Spirit is not just a teacher of this way of life, she is a student. The Journey never ends. We are Forever Evolving. From humble beginnings in Brooklyn New York, growing up with social injustice all around her, feeling she had no control over her life and just part of this system with no real voice. Life changed for Spirit June of 2002. At this point she was a housewife of 2 sons, 2 years old and 5 months. She looked at them while hearing the words of a song “Think I made a wrong turn back there somewhere.” By one of her favorite artists Erykah Badu.
Thinking of some of the wrong turns she made during her life. She said to herself what can she do to help her family not be part of this system that affects so drastically people of color. The answer she received was to work on herself. That’s when the journey started. She had to step out her comfort zone, break traditions, culture norms , stereotypes and learn new ways of thinking and life skills which changed her life drastically and allowed her to be CO- Creator of her life and take charge of it.
Spirit is dedicated to Empower others to be CO -Creators of their lives and live the life they dream using the holistic approach. They speak of this in the medical field but most are not following it or using it correctly. When used correctly you will be Truly Liberated. This doesn’t just affect the individual. When done properly affects the family, future generations and Humanity as a Whole. “If you want something you never had, you must be willing to do something you have never done.”

Personal Statement
ILLUMINATE found me. Just as “the one” falls into one’s life and screams “this is it”, so did this love of my life. More than a film festival, ILLUMINATE is the vehicle by which I have chosen to make my contribution to the planet. I humbly watch as the genuine, the talented, the seeking, and the conscious are inextricably called to this venture and compelled to join me in expanding consciousness through cinema. I spent many years in professional training for this project – in organizational management, film production and film festivals -but the true preparation was done in the deep soul-searching, powerful releasing, and enlightened recentering. My experience, passion, love of film, and year-long Eat-Pray-Find-Myself tour ushered me into a new space and a new career, where your awakening is my every joy. I invite the world to join us, and be illuminated.
