Open Contribution
What is Open Contribution?
Making the shift to a new financial paradigm.
We invite you to move beyond the old paradigm of exchange and conditional giving to a new realm of conscious trust and unconditional generosity.
In this model of open contribution we do not demand a set fee for our courses, sessions or retreats. Instead we offer them to you from the profound truth of unconditional giving. We then invite you to make a contribution based on what you feel is a true expression of your heart. This is a powerful commitment to fostering a new conscious paradigm with money and exchange.
This can be confronting and challenging for both sides because we rely on your generosity to survive and you have to take full responsibility for how you share your wealth. The consciousness required to make this system work is a radical step for business and human relationship, founded on trust, respect and generosity.
It is through this new paradigm that we can collectively step beyond the old model of exchange into the new model of unconditional giving and receiving. Step with us…..

Open Contribution, a new a paradigm of human relationship
Money is one of our great modern training grounds but for many it’s a source of stress, worry and control. Much of our current financial system is centered in a consciousness of lack, greed and the illusion of ownership. For many their current relationship with money is not a true expression of their deepest hearts calling but are unsure where or how to transform it.
The Art of Living Awake is an invitation in a new way of being as a human. An invitation beyond the concepts of mind and form, to live from the deep heart within. This goes to every area of life including our finances and how we relate to money.
At the Art of Living Awake we are committed to fostering an awakened relationship with all our financial affairs, and to inspire a new financial paradigm for all who are involved.
In the evolution as a species many of us have moved from taking to exchange. This is when rather than killing someone for what you want you offer them something in return. The concept and system of money has been born to make these exchanges effortless. This financial system has been built from this consciousness of exchange and has been the foundation of our capitalism fueled growth.
Yet, like all stages in development, exchange is being revealed as flawed because of human need and greed. The system has been warped so individuals can benefit, and others are taken from, all in the name of a good exchange. This system has taught us much but no longer supports our conscious evolution, it is time to evolve beyond it.
It is time to step into a new realm… The realm of pure hearted giving without wanting anything in return. This is not some fantastical concept or utopian ideal, it is a conscious practice to live in a new way with our fellow human beings. A way that invites the qualities of responsibility, trust and unconditional generosity.
This new way of being is a natural expression of our awakening. As we wake up to the limitless generosity of the creative force within us and all around we see a new perspective what it is to be alive.
When we look to the earth that gives us life, (food, shelter, air etc), we see her extraordinary unconditional generosity and we invite you to see this generosity as her teaching and model yourself and how you give on this profound sharing. As we do this we find a fertile abundance within us that grows beyond anything we could imagine. Sharing the abundance within and without becomes a natural expression of who we are and the only way to live into the new paradigm.
