​Most of us were never taught how to truly be with another person. We were taught to fix, advise, stay positive, move on. And somewhere along the way, real presence became rare.

​Foundations of Presence is a two-day immersive in Medellín for anyone who wants to change that.

​You'll learn how to listen without fixing, be with someone in pain without taking it on, and create the conditions for genuine intimacy, the kind that doesn't feel like work. You'll leave with a settled, reliable presence. The kind people feel before you've said a word.

​You don't need to want to become a facilitator. You just need to deeply care about people.

​What you'll walk away with:

​Real listening: not the kind where you're already thinking about what to say next, but the kind that makes people feel genuinely heard, sometimes for the first time.

​Empathy without absorption: how to be fully with someone in their experience without taking their energy on as your own.

​Presence under pressure: staying grounded when conversations get charged, heavy, or uncomfortable.

​A body-level shift: more ease in your nervous system. Less ambient tension. A physical sense of peace that isn't manufactured.

​Who this is for: Coaches, therapists, executives, parents, partners, healers, and anyone who senses that real connection is possible and wants to live closer to it.

​About Luminous Labs

​Everything we create is infused with the consciousness it comes from.

​Luminous Labs exists to bring people back to the deepest ground of their being, and help them build from there. Not pointing at a better world from a distance. Living from it, creating from it, together.

​We've run labs in Amsterdam, Berlin, Austin, Medellín, Costa Rica and beyond. The work is the same everywhere: drop in, meet each other for real, and remember what's actually possible.

​Your Guide

​Forrest Wilson broke his leg surfing in 2021 and refused surgery. He spent three months lying on his back, took his consciousness into his body, and watched himself heal. That initiation cracked something open. What came through became the foundation of everything Luminous Labs is built on.

​He's been holding transformational spaces for over a decade across a dozen countries. Fortune 500 leaders, founders, investors, people who just knew something had to change. He works at the soul level with all of them.

​"Forrest ranks among the most outstanding facilitators alive today. Just being around him tends to be a highly transformative experience." — Diego Garcia Schober

​"Being with Forrest is like being wrapped in a golden embrace." — Susanne Fink
