Certification for Teaching STREAM OF WISDOM Courses
CERTIFICATION PROGRAMS FOR TEACHERS
FOR POTENTIAL TEACHERS OF THE STREAM OF WISDOM INSTITUTE
There are three aspects to being certified as a teacher of the Stream of Wisdom Institute: 1) Seminars/Workshops, 2) On-line courses (includes reading, writing essays and questionnaires), 3) Private Sessions with Rowena.
1) The Seminars/Workshops are scheduled throughout a given year and will last from one day to a week.
2) The On-line courses are methods of home study, using books or course material sent out to each participant. The testing will be through how you answer the questions of the courses, art, and essays. There is considerable encouragement of creativity in these courses. The deeper one can go, the more effective one will be in the world, using wisdom.
3) The Individual Sessions with Rowena will be a dialogue concerning the direction the participant’s heart-mind wants to go, and the ability, tools and knowledge one has at a given time. Suggestions will be given on how to implement one’s heart-mind desires. There will be mutual reflections on the relation to the whole of one’s project and one’s spiritual growth. These can be done by phone or in person.
All certified teachers in the Stream of Wisdom Institute would need to take Stream of Wisdom Book One: "Foundations of Co-Creation" as the basis.

Stream of Wisdom
This course is for anyone interested in learning more about who you are, our planet, our spiritual roots, and cosmic laws. This handbook is designed to accompany you through a series of workshops and/or lessons in which you will learn to facilitate others and become a teacher yourself.
You are entering a nourishing stream that can change your life towards more wholeness and happiness. It is my intent that you not only learn certain knowledge bases, but that you absorb, integrate, and embody the essence of the Stream of Wisdom.
What is the Stream of Wisdom? It is the perennial stream that has run throughout the ages, and that brings truth and love to people of all nations, cultures, and races. It is the embodiment of the living principles of life, love, harmony, and communion, which flows through all daily life situations. My intent is that you, the participant, become not only knowledgeable, but creative, that you tap into the stillness of your own being, and emerge with a fountain of wisdom that you will naturally express and share with others.
The natural sharing with others is co-creation. We co-create with people, plants, animals, angels, guides and Prime Source everyday. As you step into the stream, you begin to access the source and are able to apply this wisdom to daily interactions with everything that comes your way.
Within this course, the Stream is presented in a written format; there are exercises for you to complete, contemplate, and feel empowered by. Discussion and interaction between us may follow if you register here or if you attend courses that will help you to anchor what you have learned, express it, and actualize its reality. For those who proceed in the Stream of Wisdom, you will see that your intuition has always been guiding you and you will know how to access it more and more. The ultimate lesson is for you to realize the Stream of Wisdom is within yourself and you will find a way to extend it to others.
The lessons you are sent are from a book (not yet published) and consist of chapters. They are developed for a dialogue. First, just read and dialogue with the material and with yourself. The exercises in italics interspersed within the text do not have be written out as answers, and sent to me (Rowena), but are to be a meditation within you. At the end of each chapter are specific questions for which you will record your answers. These will be questions about the chapter as a whole and how it relates to you. For those wanting to be certified as Stream of Wisdom teachers and you have registered, you are to submit your responses to me (email or mail) when you have completed answering the questions at the end of a chapter. They must be type-written.
As you work through the chapters, you are encouraged to incorporate direct experience, such as meditation, centering, and creative expression. Be still and listen. Open to the inner voice. Be aware of how your past conditioning responds to the teachings, and then open yourself to how your body and emotions respond. How do you feel now? What does your heart say? To what extend are you experiencing these teachings from a place of intrinsic joy?
Be present and fully witness your own process. Sometimes you may be still and deep; at others you may be exploratory and playful. As you move through this book, allow yourself to play. What is your understanding of play? Find a way to incorporate play in each chapter. You might write a poem, make sketches, and form physical movements. In preparation for answering the questions at the end of each chapter, I suggest you have paper and perhaps colored pencils or crayons to process the exercises. The Stream of Wisdom is refreshing when it is light-hearted and fun!
Above all, enjoy this experience in the Stream of Wisdom. Be gentle with yourself and celebrate who you are and what you are learning. May you enjoy this unfolding journey through the inner and outer cosmos!
