“The practice of the Form is unlimited life,
pure energy flowing from the innermost self into form, brand new in each and every moment, sweeping through mind, body, self, heart and emotional field. Instantly it connects with the earth grid and manifests as a new birth of real Self appearing as Thee… this human being, this woman, this man, this group. It all happens now.”
The Form is an evolutionary meditative movement practice for the 21st century. The sequence of movements that comprise The Form – Reality Practice™ is a natural flow of Being into manifest form. A gift to humanity to support the growth of human potential.

What is The Form?
The Form – Reality Practice™is a structured movement that can be practiced alone or given to another. It opens you to a deeper awareness of your self and universal life.
The daily practice of The Form reconnects you with ever deepening inner stillness. It teaches you how to live more authentically, from a place of radiant aliveness, in a never ending, evolving new way of being in your life and relationships.
"There is no distinction between The Form and its practice, and life. It is evolving consciousness and its activity; what one does, how one lives, where one functions from, and what has value and true meaning. The Form makes you aware of what is actually happening within your ordinary daily life."
Bernie Prior, Originator of The Form – Reality Practice™
The Form facilitates on all levels of being and becoming a fully alive, co creative human being.
Physically: cultivates vibrant health and well-being, restoring the body's natural balance and self-healing functions.
"My experience was of The Form being embodied - many times in the dance I felt like a tree deeply rooted in the earth and the absolute joy and delight of flowing, opening, expanding and reaching to the infinite from this grounded place. It was thrilling”
Gemma, Ireland
Mentally: reveals your unlimited potential, bringing the ability to see personal boundaries clearly and demonstrating how to evolve beyond them into greater clarity.
“My experience with The Form reveals clearly to me its power to help me choose to see only that which is true”
Phillipa, Brisbane, Australia
Emotionally: reveals negative habits and patterning, dissolving and transforming the old energy into a finer new feeling experience of life.
"The Form was really putting me in a good relaxed space and therefore sending me deeper"
Christine, U.K.
Soul: unveils your true life purpose, reconnecting you with inspiration and passion for all life.
"I have been in awe and wonderment of the profound beauty in life where every movement is seen as a movement towards love, or within the dance of love. The inner shift is permanent. The sense of beingness is one of freedom, released from the trap of the known. I have lost my sense of incompleteness...."
Dr Pee Tek Chan, Brisbane, Australia
Spirit: aligns you with the spirit of oneness in service to the bigger picture, the whole of humanity.
“The Form was life-changing and very healing in many respects. I feel as if I am being re-wired and look at things in life from another perspective. The deepening and the opening which I experienced, I am now integrating into my world. I can see how it affects everybody” Susanne, Munich, Germany
The Form - Reality Practice™is a conscious movement practice for the 21st Century
A moment of Reality Practice
A moment of Reality Practice is a new initiative within the teaching of The Form – Reality Practice. It is the discovery that by holding one of the movements from the dance of The Form for a moment one may drop profoundly beyond current experience and enter a deeper reality. This opens and reconnects the individual with an authentic place within that may be actioned as clearer expression of creativity and communication.
We are always creating – the next thought, the next moment, the next action. A moment of Reality Practice facilitates the growth of conscious awareness of what is being created – a perceived problem or a real engagement of life from growing awareness.

Where Does it Come From?
The series of movements that is The Form – Reality Practice™, originated through evolutionary visionary and spiritual teacher Bernie Prior.
After directly experiencing the enlightened state of consciousness in 1989, Bernie's body started to move into certain positions around his friends transmitting deeper realised states of consciousness. . Those individuals experienced something beyond their current experience, a deepening awareness that moved into their lives.
This natural sequence of movements evolved to what we now call The Form – Reality Practice™ Bernie knew this was a gift of his realisation to be shared with humanity. He has taught this practice globally since the mid 1990s as an opportunity for individuals to realise their their true nature and unlimited potential.
Bernie initiated a Teacher Training Program in 2009, to widen awareness and the practice of The Form. It is now being taught and practiced worldwide.

"In the world of form (on Earth) there is a distinction between this form and that form – that is Spiritual Human Evolution. But your experience and my experience go into the same pool of evolution. You are not evolving separately from others; you are evolving along with me. The Form makes that clearly seen and experienced. I can connect the oneness in myself with the same power in everyone else, regardless of what the mental, emotional experiences are. There is a connection beyond struggle, doubt and fear. The Form intends to support that growth of the individual and the collective."
How Does It Work?
Realigning with Being
Transforming old structures
Becoming the Authentic Self.
Being - In the practice of The Form you are learning to move in a total field of consciousness. You realign with the ground of Being and are moved beyond your personal identity, as pure life energy.
Transformation - The movements of The Form open clarity of awareness so you see clearly when you move away from Being into patterned conditioning. The Form literally speeds your consciousness up because you are moving as pure consciousness. It teaches you to remain in open flow and reveals how to transform limited beliefs and emotions that no longer serve evolution.
Becoming – The Form teaches you how to live as unlimited potential, constantly bringing in higher inspiration, purpose and passion for life.
“The Form teaches you to look inside for life’s answers to each and every moment – so you respond to your innermost being (that still, small voice) instead of your body-mind identity. That is evolution. You start to merge back in, as the source itself, and that evolves all your relationships. Suddenly source comes alive as an individual and the potential is, as the whole of humanity. The Form is quickening your consciousness, your light of love and truth. It deepens you, widens you and makes you more available to live life exactly as it is, with less and less problems. It demonstrates how to respond to your deepest knowing and inspiration, and to give that form. Your deepest inspiration is the real you. You learn to respond to your interior – where you came out of – and you merge back into that whilst you still have a body as a vehicle of manifest universal expression.“
Initially you can experience The Form by receiving it in a sharing session from a practitioner or facilitator/teacher of The Form, at a local sharing group or at numerous Mind Body Spirit Festivals and other expos held worldwide.
What is a Sharing Session?
A Sharing Session is when you can come and receive The Form from a Practitioner.
What Happens at a Sharing Session?
The Form is given by the Practitioner with the recipient seated in a chair.
You will be asked to close your eyes and to feel into the sensation in the hands and feet.
The Practitioner will move around your body in the sequence of movements that are The Form. These movements are performed mainly off the body except when the feet, shoulders and head are touched briefly.
When the session is complete you may remain seated, enjoying the deep inner stillness created through the movements of The Form.

“The Form is about bringing our attention to what we know is absolutely true in the heart. We bring our whole attention to that place within the heart that is the face of pure love in all of us. It is not separate from us; it is what we are on the deepest level. The Form nurtures the constant bringing of attention to that place, in all of life, not when we choose to because of problems or life challenges. We learn to keep our attention in that deep place no matter what. This grows us in strength and power of our original eternal nature”
Part 1 of The Form can be easily learnt by children. They enjoy the stillness and sense of calm it brings. It teaches them to discover for themselves what is happening with their energy levels and emotion - to take responsibility for themselves when they are getting over-excited or 'high', to dispel emotion and become more centred. The Form can be used as a daily practice to grow greater self awareness and confidence.
The Form has been taught to children aged 6 to 14 in Christchurch, New Zealand, following the earthquakes in September 2010 and February 2011. It assists with transforming sleep disorders, stress and fear caused by trauma. It is also being brought into schools for children with learning difficulty such as dyslexia, and into nursery schools to help relaxation before rest time.
“ I feel it’s very relaxing. I feel very centred; just more there. It also takes away bad energy - like if you're stressed or angry.”
Ray, aged 10, Christchurch
" It's like my energy is all up there, high. It's all happening. The Form brings me down and centres me. It's great"
Osho, aged 14, Christchurch
Anyone can learn The Form. It is taught in simple stages that provide space for learning and practicing the movements; for self-discovery and understanding the potential of The Form to refine and re-define experience, transforming responses and actions within daily life.
"In The Form your being nurtures you into greater stillness, a more quieted space within. It begins to transform your past patterning. All you have to do is respond completely, with all your heart."
Bernie Prior, Originator of the Form Reality Practice
Why learn The Form?
Our potential as human beings is limitless. The Form movements reveal this in a tangible way, demonstrating how to engage the evolutionary process of life from an authentic place. The Form teaches the individual how to stay open, free and inspired within life's constant change and challenge. A new way of being that arises from true authenticity is the potential, transforming the individual, their relationships and their community; even changing their culture.
“The practice of The Form is a transmission of realised consciousness. It is that, that you are already, prior to having a body-mind identity. As you practice The Form you are learning how to stay in that place. You are consciously choosing a deeper place to cognise within yourself and that brings you an ever deepening relationship with consciousness as yourself. This practice reflects the evolutionary purpose of having form as consciousness. As you practice this, you will constantly unfold yourself in new forms of expression, activity, love and relationship.”
The Form is made up of five parts. Each part is a different universal energetic frequency and has a unique meaning within your way of being and in your life.
Part 1 - Understanding and integrating what is in your life now
Part 2 - New consciousness emerging
Part 3 - Honouring the Yin/Yang principals of Self, the masculine and feminine, allowing that to flow totally through the body and integrate as One. The creation of new forms from pure seeds of potential and their evolution
Part 4 - Bringing the circle of existence to unity and ever-evolving into new life expression.
Part 5 - The House of God. Self Realisation - the return home of one's souls light into Source.
Each part of The Form can be practiced as a whole movement in itself. Even a small movement within a part can open doors to profound stillness and openness and bring clarity to life situations.
"Teachers of The Form, through the training, learn to live on the cutting edge of their own evolution and are discovering how to assist in the ongoing evolution of the whole of humanity, bringing about a profound change in the way we live, function and create".
Course Structures
The Form is taught in its entirety by its originator Bernie Prior over 12 or 21 day Master Retreats and by four Senior Teachers who are individually based in New Zealand, Australia, England and Ireland. Facilitators and Teachers teach from Part 1 only to Parts 1-4.
"The Form has unending potential; every little movement is so awesome. It is such a gift to humanity. Now it is about this woman bringing this openness into conscious action in every day life; to live it."
Regina. Senior Facilitator of The Form, Ireland
Where did The Form come from?
The Form arose through the realized consciousness of its originator Bernie Prior.
In 1989 Bernie Priors consciousness went totally beyond body and mind into the Absolute. Following this, The Form movements began to arise.
On sharing the movements with friends, profound openings beyond their current experience, began to occur. The total movement of The Form evolved from this place over many years as Bernie began to experiment and experience these frequencies into the manifest expression of his life. Bernie received offers from individulas and holistic centres to teach their staff the practice of The Form, with outstanding results. Following this he began to teach The Form on a 6 week evening course, then an 8 day evolving to 12 and 21 day retreats. In 2009 he introduced a worldwide The Form teacher training programme.
Why is it called The Form - Reality Practice™?
The movement is called The Form - Reality Practice as it reveals how all forms (the physical body, forms of thought, emotion, will, creativity etc.) arise from our formless state, creating the universe that we experience, either consciously or unconsciously. The practice reveals how the individual may engage reality from this formless nature and evolve their consciousness in pure awareness as the creative source themselves; ever evolving, ever present, creating the flow of pure consciousness into pure forms of expression.
Is The Form a healing modality?
The Form is not a healing practice in that the intention is not one of healing but of presence and awareness within all movement. Transformation of physical, mental and emotional patterns occurs within the practice however, facilitating the integration of new conscious awareness into the individuals body-being and the expression in life. This is true healing.
“In the practice of The Form we are beginning to do what we need to do every day of the week – stay deep and still, one with the dance of life. We are keeping all of our attention in our deep self and we are feeling everything. If a pattern comes along we are feeling through it, knowing what it is and letting it dissolve through our conscious attention and awareness. As we practice The Form pure openings of Self occur, creating an overflow of the inherent gifts of our true Self to humanity and the universe."
Is The Form a type of meditation?
The Form opens a space within that may feel or appear similar to meditation. The Form is unique however in that its movements demonstrate how to engage daily life from a profoundly meditative yet ecstatically alive state of being. It is a practice that opens the depth of still presence and cultivates a full and active participation in evolution. The potential is a radical transformation of human activity on every level.
“You learn to apply the practice of The Form to your daily life – the way you walk down the street, the way you speak to people. Your awareness is always held at your core and you continually hold that space of your deep interior with your exterior. You allow yourself to see patterning, with no judgment, but you are not responding to it. That evolves you to a place where you have less patterning in your body-mind. The Form makes your awareness profound; you get to know your body-mind functioning from another place. Then you discover you are the light that is transforming your self. In the bigger picture, the light that is transforming itself in you is the same light that is transforming the entire universe. That is a big statement to hear but it is the truth.” Bernie Prior, Originator of The Form – Reality Practice™
Can I give The Form to myself?
Yes. The Form can be danced alone as an instrument to deepen yourself in conscious awareness.
Can I move in just one or two parts of The Form?
Yes. Any part of The Form can be practiced on its own. You can gain deeper experience and understanding of a particular part of The Form. This may be of value to evolving a particular place now within your life.
The dance of The Form looks like Tai Chi; is it similar?
The dance of Form appears similar to Tai Chi in that it is a structured sequence of movements and opens the energy channels of the body-being to pure flow (as with Tai Chi). It is unique however in that it realigns the consciousness of the individual to the profundity of its original nature - pure awareness - and demonstrates how to live authentically from that in daily life.
“The Form generates more light to address those parts of your self that need higher integration – to perceive them, heal them, transform them, transcend and integrate them at a higher level of consciousness. All movement of the physical, mental and emotional bodies that you are conscious of, grows you. It grows your soul light. It is the evolution of the soul of the Earth, not just the individual. The practice of The Form is facilitating conscious evolution. It invites you to higher experience and higher integration”
What is the difference between The Form and healing modalities such as Reiki?
There is clearly a difference in the structure of movements and method of application of The Form and healing modalities such as Reiki. The intention of The Form is not healing in itself, although healing may take place through the practice. It is to open the individual to their true nature as conscious awareness, their being, and to cultivate a true response to life through the relation of the real you.
Because The Form is held in the realised consciousness of its originator, Bernie Prior, it is a living practice. This ensures it remains pure whilst also evolving.
“There is no distinction between The Form and its practice, and life. It is evolving consciousness and its activity; what one does, how one lives, where one functions from and what has value. The Form makes you aware of what is actually happening within your ordinary daily life.”
Can The Form be given to children?
Yes. Many children love to receive The Form and parts of The Form have been taught to children as young as five years.
Can The Form be given to animals?
Yes. Animals can be particularly sensitive to the finer frequencies expressed in The Form..
The Form is an evolutionary practice. Through its movements you enter a completely absorbed, contemplative state, neither subject or object oriented. This opens immediate insight into the reflections and movement of forms, through the light of consciousness. A communication of what you are being, what you are doing and who you are emerges. The field of moving experience (your everyday life) integrates through connection to a finer frequency of Being.
Many practices today do not necessarily evolve the consciousness of the individual . They may be used for leisure and pleasure, not for self illumination and self recognition of being. Contemplative practices can be used for deeper self enquiry; they are only as effective as the intention with which they are practiced.
"When we dance The Form we are dancing home into our heart. Every movement is from and as our being. We dissolve into the heart and return home, practicing The Form with complete forgetfulness of our mental, emotional, limited nature. An unlimited presence begins to arise. That is why we feel so free dancing the Form. Sharing with another we experience love, experiencing other not as other but as myself, the one love we all come out of.
Dancing The Form, we begin to weave a new self that is not confused. It is of a finer vibration that has the capacity to download more potential of the universe into the heart. As we begin to share that many changes occur. An illumined mind and open heart are being grown, bringing the deep to the surface. Wisdom grows enabling the seeing of how transformation works, through not judging self and others. Heart wisdom and power open the ability to be real love and offer it to all.

SHE Centre
Twelve and twenty-one day Self Mastery Retreats with spiritual and evolutionary visionary Bernie Prior, the originator of The Form – Reality Practice™, are a leap into an utterly new way of being.
These life-changing retreats are a synergy of The Form – Reality Practice™ five-part training, held by both Bernie and Teachers of The Form, and talks by Bernie with space for reflection and enquiry into conscious evolution. This combination facilitates integration of transforming energies and realignment with the original creative pulse of life. Individuals leave these retreats on fire with the potential for inspired change in their lives, relationships, work and communities.
12 day retreats are held twice a year, in Australia and Europe, with a longer retreat (15 or 21 days) in locations such as Fiji and India.
“Bernie's clarity, passion and integrity holds the teaching, the retreat space and all the individuals in absolute love and truth. This teaching just keeps on moving to new and deeper places. Even in just the few weeks since the previous retreat…. indeed every day, it moves to a new place. Just when it seems as though one cannot go any further, a new place opens up. It is awe-inspiring to experience this and of course the potential is to allow this to open totally and express through an ordinary life.”

The Form is a contemporary evolutionary practice. It is the instrument of Spiritual Human Evolution; the leap of consciousness we are all involved in, whether we know it or not. Evolution arrives in many ways in our lives as individuals. We share with you a taste of the arising potential happening at our base for The Form, near Christchurch, New Zealand where we have experienced two major earthquakes since September 2010. The inspiration for a new city and a new culture is potent.
Being and Becoming
The Form reconnects and realigns the individual with their being, opening conscious awareness and the space of pure presence within. It demonstrates how the seed of new potential is present in every moment. This is the ‘becoming’, the movements of The Form facilitating conscious evolution. The individual connects with inspiration for a new expression within their ordinary life, engaging the impulse to become fully alive and free. It can be as simple as a new approach to an old challenge or acould be a radical life change.
Each part of the five-part The Form – Reality Practice opens a finer frequency of being. This moves in the individual’s life as the potential for an uplift of current experience into a new place of creativity and service. The individual becomes more, through the engagement of what The Form reveals about their daily life. The philosophy of The Form - self enquiry, self knowledge and unfolding - becomes a living, heart-centred way of being.
“Within the practice of The Form we begin to experience the continual edge of a new creation. There is no God doing evolution. Evolution is you and I creating the new as a response to our true nature.”
