Your Self-Realization
Companion.

DAVID SEQUOIA

Hi, I’m David Sequoia.

I am your companion on your self-realization journey. I believe everyone is in process of realizing their true Self.

I love working with folks who are walking a more direct path to Self - who feel courageous to meet stuck patterns or subconscious defenses that block you from your heart’s longing. My clients want to embody a deeper Self-love, and we live this together in our sessions.

Through compassionate inquiry and loving presence, new pathways clear for self-exploration. I open myself to be touched by your experience, while holding deep presence with mySelf. By sharing mySelf, I can reflect the momentary resonance between us and reveal new pointers to truth.

I’ve cultivated presence with my true Self through training in Circling Coaching©, leading and co-leading intentional community projects in Portugal and Costa Rica, facilitating authentic relating and surrendered leadership workshops, guiding plant medicine ceremonies, and currently living with an enlightened spiritual teacher in the Netherlands forest.

My spiritual path guides me to realize my true Self as totality, to embodiment of the oneness. In this way, you are enlightening an aspect of mySelf when you share your deepest truth. This is a blessing in my work. I look forward to realizing our Self together.

Companionship Sessions

In Person
Forest Walk - 1 hour

We will walk together in the beautiful Groesbeek Forest in the Netherlands. Together, we will soak in nature and allow the truth to reveal itself. You may return home feeling recharged, and with a deeper sense of inner peace.

Individual Zoom
Self Exploration - 1 hour

We will dive deep into Self, revealing what’s in the way of your heart’s longing. We can also create a 6-week or 8-week package to help with a specific topic or life transition.

Zoom for Couples
Relating for Peace & Unity - 1.5 hours

Creating a better relationship often means (ironically) clarifying our individuality. Practicing new communication tools, you can step more peacefully into deeper union.

Why do I want a Self-Realization Companion?

Many of us on the spiritual path fantasize about living isolated in a Himalayan cave waiting for God. As much as the connection to Source is direct, we also live in a world based on relationships.

While society often helps us forget who we truly are and where we come from (and to what we return), some of us like to remember. I have dedicated my life to embodying this knowing, and I experience that we help each other in sharing presence.

If you desire deeper relationships, more truthful expression, and peace in a life of change, I would love to companion you in realizing your true Self.

“Wholeness and Presence”

Wholeness is the truth
I discover through presence.
I am whole in every moment.
In silence
body sensations awaken
to my loving awareness.
Language and movement
decorate my experience of self
that I share with you.
Connection blesses my wholeness
with sacred witness.

WORKSHOPS

By reframing how we communicate in simple ways, we can deepen intimacy, safety and trust. Authentic Connection is a practice that integrates Authentic Relating, Circling, Contact Improvisation and other relational arts to help unite us in the magical present moment.

Workshop Testimonials

  • Sitting in Sequoia’s workshop to learn and practice circling in Costa Rica was one of the most amazing experiences that I had at a workshop, and it was the highlight of my entire trip. The way that he was able to blend different somatic embodiment practices, and ease us into deeper vulnerable sharing within the circle through various games and prompts was masterful. I could tell that he’s done a lot of work in this area, and it is so needed within our communities right now to have a place we can express our truth and be witnessed in a safe way. I highly recommend it!!

  • I’ve participated in two Authentic Connection workshops with Sequoia and both times were a real treat. The exercises were fun and interactive, and they’re organized in a way that helped me relax and feel into my body. It didn’t take long to feel the impact these exercises were having on how I was relating with the other people in the group - the depth of connection was something special! I’m grateful to Sequoia for holding such a beautiful space and for encouraging us to be more intentional with how we relate with each other - it is so understated how important this is!

  • Sequoia’s Authentic Connection session was fun yet intensely profound. It was incredible to see how quickly it was possible to experience deeply meaningful and constructive conversation when permission was given to lift the boundaries of ordinary communication and express how you truly FEEL. Sequoia guided the session beautifully and I am thankful that I managed to put my apprehensions aside to be a part of the group. I would highly recommend and I would love to do it again!
