Divine Presence, Felt in the Body
My name is Ken W. Stone. A friend named me “The Soul Archaeologist” in 2009 because of my sense that I am helping people uncover an experience of Divine Presence that is already within every human being.
For more than eighteen years, I’ve supported individuals and groups in exploring what happens when effort and control are released and Divine Presence begins revealing and expressing itself directly — in the body, in silence, and in everyday life.
This work found me. I didn’t go looking for it. I was a mortgage lender in Colorado in September of 2007 when a fellow participant on a meditation retreat told me I should be working as a healer. I didn’t know what the word meant, yet I started sobbing uncontrollably.
Since then, I’ve worked with thousands of people across many traditions — contemplative Christians, Hindus, Muslims, Jews, Buddhists, yogic practitioners, non-dual seekers, 12-step veterans, and many who don’t identify with any. The common thread is a threshold: when what used to work doesn’t anymore, and something deeper is waiting to emerge.
My work is centered in greater intimacy with the Divine, by whatever name, as a lived reality. One that can be felt in the body, experienced, and expressed in life.
How This Work Found Me
Reflections
The most direct way to experience this work is the Embodied Divine Experience – a live online gathering where participants sit together in silence and presence. The next gathering is forming now.

The person who supports me personally (Scott Tate) and I have been doing collaborative sessions for a number of years. Early on the question came up spontaneously: What would happen if we offered this to […]
Is it a Tree?
Your consciousness impacts everything, including the way you perceive yourself, others, and the world at large. No matter how small, there isn’t one aspect of your life that’s not profoundly impacted by your consciousness. Consciousness is a lens through which we perceive everything. It changes over time, a function of different factors. Some people think […]
Unexpected, Powerful Learning Experience Began with Judgement and Shame
Last week I had the most unexpected, powerful learning experience. Earlier this year I hired a person I was referred to by a good friend to book me on podcasts. He’s been doing an amazing job, and I’ve been having a blast being interviewed by a wide range of wonderful people (Here’s a link to […]
Is Suffering Optional?
Is suffering optional? How could suffering be optional? To answer this question, we need to explore the role of suffering. Why do we suffer? What (if anything) is accomplished through our suffering? I should acknowledge that on any topic, there are many who disagree with my spiritual interpretation. I say this not to diminish my […]
