Wisdom & Practices
for Awakening Heaven Within
Our Conscious Awakening is a living MOVEMENT devoted to remembering what’s already true — that heaven isn’t somewhere we go, but something we awaken within ourselves. Through timeless wisdom, reflection, and shared practice,
we learn to live from the higher consciousness that unites us all.
Why is Answering Heaven's Wake-Up Call So Important?
These four gateways (above) form the roadmap of the Our Conscious Awakening (OCA) Movement.
Each one offers guidance and support to help you grow in awareness, deepen your peace, and live from your higher self.

Weekly wisdom, daily spiritual practices, and conscious inspiration—delivered with loving intention to your inbox weekly, daily or both!
OUR CONSCIOUS CARTOGRAPHER: The writings and reflections that shape Our Conscious Awakening arise from the work of A.C. Lyons, who has spent years weaving together insights from hundreds of spiritual teachers, scientists, philosophers, and mystics. His own reflections, combined with this diverse tapestry of wisdom, form the foundation of our principles and weekly steps. While A.C.’s integrative work provides the core structure, the movement itself speaks with its own collective voice — a companion on the path. Narration, guidance, and support are offered by the OCA Movement team to help you explore this material at your own pace.
Discover the Movement
As you walk through and review the roadmap of the OCA Movement, we invite you to pause and remember: this is not a class to complete. While the wisdom and practices may appear as lessons, they are meant to activate your memory. This isn't a course, it is a sacred rhythm to return to.
It began with a question.
What if heaven wasn’t a place to reach, but a consciousness to remember?
Guided by many voices.
This movement draws from the wisdom of hundreds of voices—from mystics to poets, scientists, artists, and seekers. Founder & Guide, A.C. Lyons has curated more than 4,000 powerful quotes to illuminate a path of conscious awakening, guiding us back to the heaven already within.
Built to meet your rhythm.
This journey isn’t a one-size-fits-all path. It’s designed to move with you.
Whether you are on the journey by yourself or in an Awakened Circle... the foundations shared, the weekly steps offered, and the daily practices emailed and posted are here to support your unfolding—accessible anytime, at your own pace, in your own way.

The Journey
1. The Heart of the Movement
Six reflections. One sacred beginning.
This section opens the soul of Our Conscious Awakening.
Here, you’ll meet A.C. Lyons and explore six reflections that reveal the purpose, vision, and unifying truth at the center of the Our Conscious Awakening (OCA) Movement.
Each reflection invites you to understand why the Movement exists, what it means to remember heaven within, and how the voices of mystics, artists, scientists, and seekers have shaped this path.
This is where the journey begins—gently guiding you toward a more conscious, awakened life.
Every weekly step that follows grows from this sacred ground.
2. Weekly Steps
Walk your path. Build your rhythm.
Each week, one step opens:
with videos that capture the essence of the weekly offerings, a spiritual principle, a spiritual practice, with a gallery of quotes used to weave the message — all designed to help you remember the heaven within.
Let each one deepen your awareness. Take each step on your own timeline.
3. Making Time for Spirit
Awakening is not a one-time event. It’s a way of being.
This movement invites you to build a spiritual rhythm—one that flows gently into your days, guiding you toward greater awareness, presence, and peace.
Daily practices—offered through email containing thoughtful reflections, powerful quotes, and gentle reminders—help you return to what matters most. Whether you explore them freely or follow the suggested rhythm, each one supports a deeper remembering.
You’ll find a practice for every day of the week. Plus a collection of anytime practices to nourish your journey in the moments that matter most.
Sacred Circles
Awakening Together
By resonating together within a community that shares a larger vision—the evolution of consciousness on this planet—you will ultimately be there for one another. Because on this journey, there will be dark nights and luminous awakenings, and there is nothing more powerful than sharing both with a small circle of souls evolving alongside you.
As a small awakened sacred circle, you can share the results of your spiritual practices, discuss the principles and insights being revealed through the movement, and come together to bring unmanifested consciousness—light—into this world.
This may mean gathering to sing, dance, listen to music, practice yoga or Tai Chi, meditate, or simply sit in silence together. It may mean walking in nature, resting beside the water, or playing with the freedom of your childlike imagination. You may choose to envision a world awakening—or to serve others through acts of kindness and compassion.
Whatever your circle chooses to do, let it arise from love. For when a small circle joins hearts in the creation of unmanifested light, they become a radiant part of something far greater—a living expression of our awakening movement itself.
The Voices
A Tapestry of Wisdom
This movement is not built on one voice—but many. From mystics and monks to fashion designers and scientists, each quote is a thread in the tapestry of our collective awakening.
Here, we honor the hundreds of contributors whose words have guided the creation of this journey. Their insights—drawn from more than 4,000 quotes—span the worlds of art, literature, science, poetry, philosophy, and more.
Here you will find a categorized list of the most dominate contributors, along with a letter of deep gratitude from A.C. Lyons—
a reminder that the path home is shaped by many hands and hearts.
Love Speaks Through Every Voice
Across time and tradition, people from all walks of life—
mystics, musicians, scientists, poets, and everyday seekers—
have unknowingly helped write the story of our sacred remembrance.
This video offers one reflection of that story, told through powerful quotes that echo throughout the steps of this movement. Each voice carries a thread of truth. Each quote, a spark of awakening.
These same threads appear throughout the weekly steps,
offering a sacred rhythm of reflection, resonance, and return.
