OPEN HEART EXPERIENCE
Discover the depth of your human heart
“In the heart of a human being, emptiness becomes Love.” ~ Adyashanti
The Open Heart Experience with Adam engages your visceral (human) experience prior to the habits of controlling, dissociating or reacting.
If Who You Are is the body or vehicle of your joy, service, healing and evolution, then What You Are is the source code, the underlying intelligence, for that embodied awakenedness.
Our Heart is the place where genuine experience happens. It’s where truth is our present moment. It is the source of our human intelligence, bridging earth and heaven, body and mind, known and unknown.
Our Heart is our vastness, where the entirety of our moment is happening in Love. All the old wounds and avoided blessings remain suppressed until we experience them in Love without any agenda to get something, get out of something, or have the experience continue.
There is compelling evidence to suggest the physical heart is coupled to a field of information not bound by the classical limits of time and space. This evidence comes from a rigorous experimental study that demonstrated the heart receives and processes information about a future event before the event actually happens.” ~ from Science of the Heart: Exploring the Role of the Heart in Human Performance, HeartMath Institute
In the Open Heart Experience, we don’t give in to emotional and psychological processing — we give in to ourselves with Love holding us so that processing becomes completely free to move and self-liberate.

“The deeply open heart is the Heart that feels life and does not protect us from it; the Heart passionately and equally open to both the pain of loss and the joy of connection without resistance.” from: Chiron, The Wisdom of a Deeply Open Heart
Workshops are facilitated by Adam in a safe and courageous field of Love, which our heart instantly recognizes. In this space without agenda to heal, fix, or get us somewhere, our heart’s wisdom exposes our hidden patterns of isolation, victimization or arrogance, all at our own pace.
Through Adam’s gentle and skilled facilitation, we relinquish our need to be in control and discover we are always in charge, regardless of how much we are or are not liking our experience. This frees our endogenous heart intelligence to take over.
Group Workshops
- Are generally 1 day or a half day, held over Zoom
- Require a discovery call with Adam prior to attending
- Provide a strong, loving container for more self-honesty and show us our true commitment to Love First
- Can be challenging to our entrenched self-images
- Are held in a vast and very tangible field of Love without agenda
“I find it completely astonishing how Adam can hold a workshop with people who don't know each other, that we can expose some of our most painful or embarrassing parts of ourselves and there is not one ounce, not one speck of judgment anywhere. Adam's circles are so safe, so filled with love and acceptance! Many, many years of attending powerful group experiences and ceremonies and I finally found the one I know I can grow more and heal more than ever before. Thank you Adam!”

“As others were sharing I could feel their openness and raw truth. I could feel it call to me and something started to weave within me, through me and with the other. The experience touched me in a way I haven’t experienced before in a group setting. I’ve had deep meditation experiences or felt like I’ve expanded out to touch the universe in large and small groups. But to be fully present in my body, to not go anywhere energetically, and have that unlocking take place was unique and treasured. Going through the harder feelings and truth I have, what challenges me the most, and then feeling it transform into joy.. It’s a gift. A very beautiful and rare gift. Writing it out like this doesn’t really do it justice. ”
~ Amaali, Taupo, N.Z.
“Adam cuts through bullshit. He is genuinely kind. He is brave and can stand on his own holding space for himself and others to be exactly what they are in that moment. He has tremendous feeling capacity with clearly developed, healthy emotional boundaries.”
~ Tara Aal, L.A., CA
“I am so very grateful for the OHE work in what it has done in my life…. This work is so very powerful and needed in my heart and my being. It also has helped me show up in the world in a more powerful way.”
~ Dr. Melissa Patterson
“The work with you a couple months back has continued to inform my own human journey in beautiful ways as well as overflow into the impact it’s having on my clients… I cant thank you enough!”
~ Ajaya S., Core Embodiment, Novato, CA
“I deeply trust Adam — his kindness surpasses all of my former experiences with other modalities or teachers. The paradox is that his having no agenda for me to get somewhere has resulted in profound shifts in my life. I’m living my life now much more honest with myself and others, as an easeful expression of my true essence.”
~ Dana Mazurkova, Seattle WA
" I feel like 3 and 300 years old at the same time."
~ Dr. Jane Tornatore, Seattle, WA
“We must reclaim and embody our original wholeness, our indigenous human nature granted to us by nature itself. And the key to reclaiming our original wholeness is not merely to suppress psychological symptoms, recover from addictions and trauma, manage stress, or refurbish dysfunctional relationships, but rather to fully flesh out our multifaceted, wild psyches, committing ourselves to the largest story we’re capable of living, serving something bigger than ourselves.”
~ Bill Plotkin, founder, Animas Valley Institute
“Our task is to apprentice ourselves to the mystery, to have the eyes to see What Is.”
