KEN & ELIZABETH MELLOR
Ken and Elizabeth founded The Awakening Network Inc. in 1984. Prompted by strong international interest in their work as urban mystics, they formed a non-profit organisation that is designed to encourage sharing between all who are interested. You can find out more about the Network by exploring your way through the Website using the menue to the left.
Their personal areas of interest and skills cover a broad range, most of which are included in some way in the Website. Generally, these include mentoring in a variety of settings (personal, business, spiritual), writing (parenting, children's stories, and on spiritual issues), running workshops and training events internationally, and continuing their own spiritual practice and their personal training.
URBAN MYSTICISMUrban Mysticism is a practical form of spirituality that embraces every aspect of life. People who are interested in developing or continuing some form of spiritual practice to enrich their everyday experiences and to open themselves to the wonders that lie within, usually take to this approach very easily. Very simple and basically personal in nature, people can practice alone or with others. Also, there are many different ways of doing it. People linked to The Awakening Network share only one of many versions of what people can do. So it comes as no surprise that Urban Mysticism is open to all who are interested, whatever their backgrounds and interests. The Awakening Network helps to link people who are interested in living day to day life easily and happily, and in opening up to and realising the wonderful grace, love and aliveness that is "inside". The Network also makes available opportunities to learn and practice with others who have similar interests.
