Integration School

Coming Home to Your Whole Self

Integration School is a vehicle to bring education to adults of all ages - a place to learn how to live life in a happier, healthier, more skilled and masterful way. We deliver a program of reconnecting to the authentic self, for people to come home to their core beings.

Our Vision

The vision is creating a school for people to integrate all aspects of themselves and find their unique abilities to live in ease and flow.

By getting to know and understand their own self and system, and communicating better internally, people can cultivate and navigate healthier, nurtured, fertile, and successful relationships in all aspects of life.

Our Mission

We share an experience that will inspire those who experience breakthroughs to invite others to come home to themselves - so that together we can shift the consciousness and deepen awareness to the skill level of human beings’ ability to not only live a well and full life, but to embody our capacity to thrive.

How We Operate

Embodiment occurs through creating experiences we can integrate that will support a more meaningful life.

We give people an opportunity to deeply look at their lives and connect more fully with themselves, their families, and their community, so they can live more authentically.

We guide each individual to find the truth of their bodies, their hearts, and their souls, and to release any programming that doesn’t support their fullest expression.

Core Values

Diversity

We welcome diversity and inclusive co-creation. We honor the uniqueness of life expressed through each individual in the community, and recognize the endless possibilities of abundant co-creation that come from diverse experiences, perspectives, expression, and ways of being - founded on diversity, freedom, and love.

Empowerment & Responsibility

We support sovereignty, relationality, and transformation toward wholeness. We nurture personal growth and collective synergy, support integration of all aspects of life, and take responsibility for our experiences and self-care. We empower people to live as self-governing beings, connected to community and Source, and consciously reflect on our relationship with money, sex, and power.

Shamanism

We listen to Source while working in non-ordinary reality. We embrace divine guidance revealed through rituals and non-ordinary states of awareness, cultivating presence, surrendering to the Mystery, and alchemizing the wisdom that emerges from the body, emotions, life force, and Love.

Love

We center our evolution on Love. We are on a continuous journey toward embodying and evolving in Love - the core of our actions, explorations, and culture, promoting open-heartedness, inclusivity, empathy, patience, kindness, and compassionate understanding.

Evolution

We are ever-evolving, integrating wisdom as we boldly experiment - pioneering shifts from the status quo to a more loving, authentic, and conscious way of being together.

Integrity

We value integrity and discernment. We act in alignment with our soul’s truth, show respect for the life paths of others, and walk our talk by embodying what we teach. We self-observe and stay transparent with our actions, fears, and desires, and we clean up completely and respect nature and the environment.

Humility

We are humble and coachable. We lean into our vulnerability, learn from our mistakes, and remain open to feedback and change - continuously growing and learning.

Synergy & Accountability

We share power and work in synergy. Everyone has a voice, and each person’s inspiration matters. We foster radical honesty, transparency, self-responsibility, and self-awareness, and cultivate a healthy community through care, listening, impact awareness, direct communication, conflict resolution, mediation, and repair. We desire to raise each other up, maintain healthy boundaries, and transition relationships with respect, care, grace, and ease.

Sacred Eros

We embrace Sacred Eros. We honor divine erotic energy as a transformative life force, a wellspring of creativity, and a path for spiritual growth - celebrating its innocence and supporting people to live wild and free.

Joy

We enjoy life. Our life force is expressed in many ways, including creativity, playfulness, passion, and aliveness - and we know healing can be powerful, fun, profound, and humorous.

ALIVE

Awareness Love Integrity Vitality Embodiment

A two-week initiation into integrated adulthood.

ALIVE is the next evolution of a powerful week-long training that has already transformed the lives of tens of thousands of people around the world. Created and refined by Dez Nichols over more than 20 years, this updated and enhanced program is the initiation experience we wish every young adult could receive. It is designed to help people become healthy, fully functional, and truly integrated adults.

Trauma-awareness, nervous-system literacy, and clear boundaries have always been woven into these trainings. ALIVE is what that foundation looks like when it has more room to breathe and deepen. Extending the format from one week to two is not simply more content - it is an expression of the spaciousness that matters. The slower pace creates genuine time for embodiment, integration, and meeting people where they are, rather than pushing past their capacity.

Within that held space, we go deeper into practical nervous-system regulation. Participants work with titration (moving in small, manageable doses), pendulation (gently oscillating between activation and resource), resourcing, and other foundational tools. The emphasis throughout is on building capacity rather than chasing intensity - right-sized challenge that expands what you can hold, rather than peak experiences that leave you flooded.

Clear participant and facilitation-team agreements are in place from the beginning. Everything is invitational: you remain the author of your experience, with full freedom to opt in or opt out at any time. The same boundaries and ethical standards apply to both participants and the support team, so the container is mutual and trustworthy rather than hierarchical. Team roles are named and transparent, supporting safety while allowing the work to go deep.

Integration time is built into the structure itself - spacious evenings, journaling, movement, quiet, and buddy connection - so what arises has room to settle in the body instead of simply accumulating. Preparation and aftercare guidance further support the process, recognizing that real initiation continues beyond the training itself.

The result is an initiation into integrated adulthood: more presence, steadier self-regulation, healthier relationships, and the ability to meet life with both strength and softness.
