Description:
Awakening and awakened whole being realizers are invited to come together in Thailand to accelerate your evolutionary unfoldment through deep mutual engagement, potent group transmission, and transformative whole being processes.
This will be a mutuality-based retreat experience in which the collective conscious interconnected nature of the group will contribute a heart activating field of expression and creation to contribute to the content, focus, and flow of the retreat each day.
Large group, small group, dyad, and triad activities led by teachers and mentors will be used to enhance interactions, experiences, and realizations for maximizing evolution for each participant. Regular sharing and processing in small groups facilitated by a teacher and a mentor will offer opportunity for individual exploration of personal life issues, whole being realization processes, and awakened evolution living.
The beautiful tropical environment and the planned schedule will provide the basis for a deep personal retreat. The retreat is being hosted by the Link family in their quiet, treed, ocean-side compound of quality homes: each participant or couple will have a private bedroom and bathroom; swimming is available in the on-site pools or in the warm ocean from the lovely sand beach out front; and delicious meals are provided on the patio framed by palm trees and overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
For the 10-Day Retreat, we will arrive at the retreat facilities two days before the structured program begins to decompress, settle in, and enjoy personal retreat time. We can choose to take pleasure in the beach, water, and views, go for a Thai massage, or walk in the local area. The structured schedule that begins at dinner on the third day after arrival, will be spacious to allow relaxation and ample personal time; we will have time off one day in the middle of the retreat in which you can participate in group recreation, sightseeing, or take time off to yourself; and we will depart at our ease the morning after the retreat ends.
The 6-Day Retreat Extension, begins with 2 personal retreat days up to dinner of the second day when the structured program begins. You will have relaxed time to enjoy the facilities, visit the local area, or take time off to yourself. The spacious daily schedule used during the 10-day retreat will continue to be followed throughout this advanced retreat extension.
Our international retreat team of seven seasoned teachers and mentors is very much looking forward to participants joining us for this wonderful Thailand Retreat. This event offers a special opportunity to deepen into the nature of whole-being mutuality, in a beautiful tropical location, with a group of conscious, loving, embodied beings, in the longest retreat offered in this path. This is an extraordinary opportunity to care for your personal evolution and to contribute to the collective conscious evolution of our whole being community.

Retreat Team
Teachers:
Rod Taylor
ROD TAYLOR is an international teacher of conscious embodied non-dual awakening, known for his pioneering work in the field of spiritual evolution. He is the originator of the Whole-Being Evolution Teachings, creator of the Whole-Being Evolution Map, and author of the book New Principles of Awakened Relationship.
For over 50 years he has been teaching spiritual awakening knowledge and techniques to individuals and groups. Since 2007 he has been offering workshops and coaching services as a member of the Trillium Awakening™ Teachers Circle, and since 2019 he has also been offering workshops and coachings services as a Whole Being Evolution Guide.
Rod is a member of the Trillium Awakening Core Teachings Committee and a certified Trillium Awakening Whole Being Realization Clarifier. He has a Master of Adult Education degree and post-secondary certification in Conflict Resolution.
Teaching and coaching in the field of whole being realization is Rod’s passion and his joy. He lives with his beloved wife Andrea on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.
Ralf Humphries
RALF HUMPHRIES is a midwife of awakening, supporting individuals in the birthing of their whole being self. In this process, the subtle soul-nature is welcomed into full embodiment and increasing love-expression in the world. Ralf’s postnatal support continues to be valuable as these awakened individuals mature through further evolutionary stages of their whole being unfoldment.
Ralf first intuited a fundamental, irresolvable paradox at the heart of things in his teens. He mapped the contours and evoked the experience of this paradox throughout a distinguished career of transdisciplinary academic research, conference presentations and peer-reviewed publications, which was followed by five years living as a Buddhist monk in a Theravada forest monastery. In 2013, with the support of Trillium Awakening, he was delighted to discover the ever-present paradox of infinite-in-finite at the core of his embodied nature.
In the last eight years, Ralf has worked as a psychotherapy educator and a senior clinician in a residential addiction treatment facility. He currently has a private practice as a therapist, is an interning teacher with Trillium Awakening, and is a Whole-Being Evolution Guide. Ralf lives with his dear one in Melbourne, Australia.
Cielle Backstrom
CIELLE BACKSTROM had a significant spiritual awakening at age 15. By age 19 she found Transcendental Meditation (TM) and became a TM teacher in 1973. She grew in consciousness realization through 2002. At that point she recognized that she was missing embodiment in her awakening and found Trillium Awakening (formerly Waking Down). Her embodied awakening unfolded in 2003. She became a Trillium teacher in 2006.
Her journey on the Trillium path opened multiple inner doorways revealing just how “whole” life is and the huge range that it includes. This led her to study several certification courses with processes she uses as aids to assist her students on their path of awakening. These processes include Inner Relationship Focusing, Holotropic Breathwork and Peruvian based energy healing.
Cielle was a member of the Trillium Teachers board of directors from 2006-2011 and again from 2023 to present. She has been part of the Trillium Awakening Operations circle since 2012. She is also a member of the Trillium Teacher’s Core Teaching Committee. She was certified in 2019 to conduct Whole Being Realization Clarification Conversations.
Her passions include symbolic art journaling, geometry, traveling, being a grandmother and supporting people on their awakening journey, especially through compassionate listening.

Mentors:
Felix Link
FELIX LINK is a long term participant in Trillium Awakening and now as an experienced mentor he is excited to be of service to you on your journey with Trillium. Born to German parents and having grown up in Thailand, he moved back to Bangkok in 2017 after 12 years or so of being a passionate seeker. He’s lived in Nepal for a couple of years to dive deep with Tibetan Buddhism, a year at a spiritist centre in Brazil, and beyond that has spent years with different paths and various forms of therapy, trying to find what he eventually found with Trillium. Which is to say: much greater well-being, connection and a sense of freedom.
Sharlotte Eiland
SHARLOTTE EILAND: I think a big strength I can offer is that I’ve looked deeply inside myself, encountered excruciating pain and fears, seen the worst of my survival patterns, and have emerged to feel huge compassion and understanding for myself. I know all my parts are divine, and that all my survival patterns are there to try to help me, no matter how shameful they may feel. I know the incredible healing power of being able to hold myself, and know this to be true not just for myself, but for all of us.

Rebecca Reble
REBECCA REBLE joined Trillium Awakening in 2014. Since then, she has journeyed deep into self-discovery, facing the depths of personal challenges – emerging with a profound sense of compassion and love, for herself, and others. Recognizing the sacredness in every aspect of her being, Rebecca appreciates that even our shadow serves a divine purpose in our whole-being evolution. This realization has cultivated an immense healing capacity and a profound desire to be of service. As a seasoned mentor, Rebecca Reble brings a wealth of experience and a uniquely embodied perspective to her work. Having engaged with various spiritual and therapeutic practices, Rebecca has found a profound sense of well-being, connection, and freedom that enriches her approach to life, work and capacity as a mentor.
