Emunah Academy is the educational hearth of EMUNAH.
A place to learn, embody, inquire, experiment, and experience.
The courses are perennial cycles of growth you can participate in.
The Academy is the larger educational ecosystem they belong to.
HOW LEARNING HAPPENS HERE
Learning within Emunah Academy comes alive through understanding, experience, and practice. Our different educational experiences use different combinations of these approaches, but several principles shape how we teach and learn together here.
EDUCATE → EMBODY → EMPOWER
We develop understanding, bring what we are learning into direct experience, and explore how it can inform the way we live.
Educate offers context, language, frameworks, and knowledge.
Embody brings learning into relationship with the body, practice, and lived experience.
Empower creates space to reflect, integrate, make choices, and apply what we are learning within our lives.
FRAMEWORKS + METHODOLOGIES
Frameworks help organize complexity. Methodologies give us ways to work with what we are learning.
We develop and draw from both to make ideas clear enough to understand, practical enough to use, and flexible enough to meet the complexity of life.
EMBODIED LEARNING
Our bodies give us direct access to thefelt experience of our lives.
Developing a felt sense of our experience helps us notice what is happening beneath our explanations and habits, connect more clearly with our needs and desires, and bring greater awareness to what feels authentically ours.
Movement, sensation, breath, attention, and practices such as our Embodied Visualization Meditations bring learning into direct relationship with the body.
Everything changes when what we are learning becomes something we can feel, experience, and recognize within ourselves.
GOOD QUESTIONS
Some questions are valuable because of what they help us notice, feel, understand, and integrate.
A good question can bring us into deeper relationship with our experience, help us recognize patterns and parts of ourselves that need attention, and create space for what has been carried to be felt, processed, and understood differently.
Good questions can also lead to great conversations, creating space for more open communication, deeper understanding, and greater connection.
A good question can change what we notice, what we understand, and what becomes possible next.
RECOGNITION + DISCOVERY
Learning can widen and deepen how we understand ourselves, one another, and the world around us, bringing new perspectives, distinctions, relationships, and possibilities into view.
It can give language, structure, or context to something we have already sensed, experienced, or known.
Sometimes the moment of learning is “I never saw it that way before.”
Sometimes it is “I sensed this, but I never had words for it.”
Both expand what we are able to notice and understand.
A LIVING CURRICULUM
Emunah Academy is designed around rhythm, season, recurrence, and return. Many of our perennial offerings unfold within a particular season and return at that time each year, allowing the curriculum itself to participate in the rhythms of a living world.
Our learning is cyclical too. We intentionally return to questions, frameworks, practices, and experiences because they meet us differently as we mature.
The material may be familiar, but we return to it with new experience and perspective every time.

GOOD QUESTIONS
“The wise don’t give the right answers, they pose the right questions” — Claude Levi-Strauss

Sometimes it is “I knew this, but until now I never had words for it.”

The flagship course of Emunah Academy
Sexuality touches far more of our lives than what happens sexually.
It shapes how we experience our bodies, pleasure, desire, intimacy, safety, identity, relationship, creativity, power, and connection. the EDGE uses sexuality as a direct way into that larger human system.
Across six phases, participants develop a more embodied relationship with sensation, pleasure, erotic energy, healing, creative power, and partnered presence. The course moves gradually from stabilization and awareness into pleasure, circulation, healing, ceremony, creation, and deeper connection with others and the living world.
6 PHASES · SELF-PACED · AVAILABLE YEAR-ROUND
Each phase follows the same educational rhythm:
EDUCATE → EMBODY → EMPOWER
Frameworks and anatomy create understanding. Somatic practices, breath, touch, meditation, and attention bring that understanding into direct experience. Good Questions, ceremony, and integration practices help participants carry what they are learning into the way they live and relate.
BODY · SENSATION · PLEASURE · EROTIC ENERGY · HEALING · DEVOTION · CREATIVITY · CONNECTION
the EDGE approaches sexual energy as more than desire or arousal. It becomes something we can learn to feel, understand, work with, and bring into relationship with healing, intimacy, creativity, and the life we are building.

Some educational experiences within Emunah Academy are designed for a particular season and return at that time each year.
These are our perennial experiences: recurring opportunities to revisit a body of work as the seasons change and as our own lives continue to change.
PERENNIAL EXPERIENCES
THE ART OF REGENERATIVE LIVING
AUTUMN
A three-month creativity cultivator for autumn.
Moving from the Autumn Equinox toward the Winter Solstice, The Art of Regenerative Living explores golden shadow, alchemical death, fertile darkness, and the regenerative possibilities of creativity.
Participants cultivate a creative practice alongside the course, bringing the season’s themes into something they make, tend, practice, or bring into the world.
SEX, G⟡D & MONEY
SUMMER
A summer exploration of three forces that shape human life.
Sexuality, spirituality, and money each carry desire, power, meaning, conditioning, pleasure, fear, relationship, and possibility.
Across the summer, we bring these dimensions into conversation and explore what becomes visible when we examine our relationships with Sex, G⟡d & Money together.
STEADY STRENGTH
SPRING
Emunah Academy’s approach to Regenerative Fitness.
Steady Strength helps people develop a lifelong relationship with their bodies through awareness, movement, strength, breath, recovery, and embodied practice.
Rather than training toward a temporary physical outcome, the work develops capacity: building a body that supports how you want to live, participate, create, and contribute across a lifetime.

PRIVATE COHORTS
Want to learn with your people on your own timeline? Private cohorts of our courses can be arranged throughout the year for groups, organizations, and communities.
WITHIN THE ACADEMY
Membership opens access to additional ways of learning.
Members have access to frameworks, practices, and educational experiences that support their learning over time. Some are offered as standalone member experiences, while others are woven into larger courses, coaching, and live intensives.
THE V’S LIFE COMPASS
A process for clarifying Values, Vision, and Vices and using them to orient how we live, choose, and move forward.
BE the LOVE
An exploration of love, relationship, and the capacities that help us create greater connection and harmony with ourselves and others.
THE GOLD IN OUR SHADOWS
An exploration of the parts of ourselves we learned to exile in order to preserve love, belonging, or dignity, and the gold found both in what we rejected and what we became in response.
REALITY REORIENTATION EXPERIMENT
Experience how we learn.
The Reality Reorientation Experiment is a free four-week experience in learning through direct relationship with the living world.
STONES → TREES → WATERS → STARS
Free. Four weeks. Begin anytime.
LEARNING WITH OTHER PEOPLE
Other people bring perspectives, experiences, questions, and ways of seeing that we could never generate alone.
Through live calls, Salons, conversation, shared practice, questions, and feedback, members deepen their understanding through dialogue and discover what becomes possible in relationship.
What we learn also travels with us: into our relationships, families, work, creative lives, organizations, communities, and places.
The Academy is a place to learn together and carry that learning into the lives we are already part of.
PRACTICAL QUESTIONS
Everything else you might want to know
-
Membership is an ongoing way to learn, practice, and participate in Emunah Academy. It includes access to member curriculum, live calls, Salons, practices, community, and other educational experiences that support learning over time.
Membership is included with our courses and coaching engagements and continues for a full year afterward.
-
Membership is included when you participate in an Emunah Academy course or coaching engagement, and continues throughout the experience and for a full year afterward. This gives you ongoing access to member curriculum, practices, live experiences, and community.
After that year, you can continue your membership for $15/month or simply let it end. During your time as a member, you’re welcome to download materials for personal use, including sharing what you’ve learned with the people in your life. We encourage you to continue bringing what you’ve learned into your life.
-
There are several ways in.
BeginWithin is our foundational year and weaves many of our core frameworks, methodologies, and practices together to empower your thriving within your multidimensional life as the ground of broader systemic change.
the EDGE uses sexuality as an entry into embodiment, pleasure, healing, creative power, relationship, and multidimensional living.
Our perennial experiences offer focused seasonal explorations, while the Reality Reorientation Experiment offers a free, four-week introduction to how we learn.
Start with what feels most relevant to your life now.
-
Both. Different experiences use different combinations of recorded curriculum, practices, live calls, Salons, community conversation, and independent exploration.
Some courses unfold with a live cohort or within a particular season.
Across formats, our experiences are designed with flexibility in how and when you engage with the material.
-
No. The curriculum is an interconnected ecosystem, and ideas, frameworks, and practices often appear across multiple experiences.
BeginWithin offers the broadest foundation, but you can enter the Academy through the course or experience that best meets your interests and current season of life.
-
Emunah Academy is primarily a digital educational environment, with courses, resources, conversations, and community housed in our private Circle community. This allows everyone to participate from wherever they live.
We also offer live and in-person experiences, gatherings, and learning opportunities, co-designed with the community.
-
Our curricula are designed from a Living Systems approach, which is dynamically different than most educational experiences.
A core feature of this approach involves rhythm, recurrence, and return.
Ideas, questions, frameworks, and practices appear across different experiences and can be revisited over time. Our perennial courses also return within the same season each year.
The material may be familiar, but we all return to it with new experience and perspective, ever growing the field of collective wisdom.
-
Frameworks help organize complexity. They give us language, distinctions, and structures for understanding relationships and patterns that might otherwise be difficult to see clearly.
Methodologies give us ways to work with what we are learning. They turn understanding into inquiry, practice, experimentation, reflection, and application.
We develop our own and draw from established bodies of knowledge across the disciplines that inform our work.
-
Emunah Academy engages seriously with spirituality, contemplative traditions, ritual, meaning, and questions that humans have explored through religion for thousands of years. The word emunah is an ancient Hebrew concept that points toward a deep relationship with that which is greater than us. We will never prescribe what that relationship looks like for you.
Seth and Ganga Devi are both ordained Interspiritual Ministers, meaning they are thoroughly trained in providing grounded, nondogmatic, and integral spiritual guidance that meets you where you are. In seminary, when given the assignment of researching a religion not covered in the curriculum, they chose agnosticism and science, respectively.
Academy members come from from many different religious, spiritual, philosophical, and secular orientations. Our educational approach invites inquiry, discernment, and direct experience while respecting the differences between scientific, spiritual, cultural, ancestral, and personal ways of knowing.
-
You are welcome to let what you learn inform your own thinking and professional practice.
Some Emunah frameworks, methodologies, curriculum, and teaching materials are part of a developing body of intellectual property and future professional education pathways.
If you want to teach, facilitate, reproduce, or formally incorporate this work into your own offerings, please contact us so we can help clarify what is appropriate.
As practitioner training, facilitation, and licensing pathways develop, we’ll make those opportunities and requirements clear.

Yes. Private cohorts of our courses can be arranged throughout the year for groups, organizations, and communities, including BeginWithin, the EDGE, and experiences that otherwise follow a particular seasonal or annual rhythm.
