The Art of God has provided me with a spiritual tool to deal with the practicalities of how I chose to show up in the world. I've struggled with self-judgement most of my life as well as many other types of reactions on an everyday basis.
Art of God allows me to take responsibility for every aspect of myself and my life and accept and integrate the places where I get stuck.
I am very grateful to Brooks and the gifts he brings into the world. He is a very high level teacher, guide and wise man who has much to offer.

The Structure
Each four and a half-day intensive is designed to allow for necessary integration throughout the experience.
Schedule:
Thursday 10 am - 6 pm lunch: 1:30 - 3 pm
Friday 10 am - 6 pm lunch: 1:30 - 3 pm
Saturday 10 am - 10 pm lunch: 1:30 - 3 pm, dinner 6 - 7:30 pm
Sunday 10 am - 2 pm no lunch break
Each intensive starts at 10:00 am. Lunch begins at 1:30pm and we reconvene at 3:00 pm. (The lunch break time varies occasionally according to the needs of the group). We end at 6:00 pm usually with the advice to be "gentle", "rest", and have "fun" for the remainder of the evening, again to facilitate integration. Sunday ends at 2:00 pm to allow for travel time. There is no break for lunch on Sunday before the end of the intensive.
The intensives are so named because they are very challenging. The intensives are so named because they accelerate growth in ways that will challenge where you need to evolve. Participants start to process and change usually a month before each intensive. Post-intensive integration lasts for at least two months, which is why the intensives are approximately six months apart. There are only six intensives over three years. Brooks does offer sessions by telephone or in person as desired.
The work deeply affects you physically as well as spiritually, psychologically, sociologically and economically. Ancestral as well as soul reconstruction of the body is essential to Art of God as is healing of childhood trauma, the acceptance of life purpose and gaining the capacity to organize in the world as a leader of this time.
In Art of God, establishing presence is key developmentally. This takes work, commitment, love and awareness of beauty. Any trauma that does not encourage these qualities must be addressed completely in order for confidence in healing and growth to evolve. Over time, what results is an ability to sustain the prominent intelligence we access in the intensives. Eventually, complete ownership of true presence and real prominence allows for spontaneous healing of trauma.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT PRE-INTENSIVE:
Year one
It is important to be aware that Art of God is a cumulative process. The first year, entitled Wisdom of Beauty, is an experience in how to sustain a sense of our beauty and love in spite of the trauma that we have had to live with.
In these two intensives we heal trauma rapidly through deep awareness of who we are in God in order to recognize and accept our complete soul capacity.
Tear two
The second year is called Wisdom of Graciousness and is about designing relational leadership. The second two intensives explore the opportunity of structuring relationships spontaneously in order to build leadership for projects that will change this world substantially and immediately.
We gain understanding of economics and communication from the perspective of who we are as God. This becomes a new and essential experience of authority.
Year three
The last year is referred to as Unity of Consciousness. The intensives are about accepting responsibility for changing reality itself. More here.
The structure of Art of God is designed to effectively organize human beings into "God Presences" on Earth to complete one of the most crucial economic and societal transitions in the history of Earth within the next thirty years.
Brooks' base of operation is in Los Angeles and New York City. Art of God is currently organizing in Tokyo, London, and will eventually be taught in Paris and Bombay.
