A Journey Towards Inner Transformation
About the School of Present Time
Embark on a transformative path that harmonizes the body, mind, and spirit, guiding you towards a life of presence and clarity.
Our Mission and Vision
Our mission is to guide individuals through a journey of self-discovery and inner integration. We focus on freeing individuals from the constraints of their past, enabling them to live with heightened awareness and creativity. Our vision is to cultivate a community of individuals who are deeply connected to their inner selves and aligned with a greater universal force, fostering a world of conscious and present beings.
Founding Principles
Our approach begins with the body, the gateway to consciousness, where movement and sensation reveal hidden truths and memories. By revisiting and transforming lived memories, we uncover the patterns that shape our present experiences.
The power of the group is integral to our process, amplifying presence and fostering a collective environment that supports growth and integration. Together, we cultivate a space where inner peace can flourish, paving the way for a deeper connection to Spirit.
Integration is key to achieving a stable, natural presence, allowing individuals to align with the guiding intelligence of life. Our principles emphasize the importance of this alignment, encouraging a conscious relationship with Spirit and a life imbued with purpose and direction.
The Four Phases of Transformation
Our Structured Process
At the School of Present Time, the path of transformation unfolds through four interconnected phases: Activation, Recapitulation, Integration, and Alignment. Each stage naturally deepens the previous one, forming a coherent and embodied journey of inner evolution.
Activation awakens the body and sharpens attention through Toltec-inspired movements, cultivating energy, presence, and heightened awareness. Recapitulation invites a conscious review of personal history, illuminating recurring patterns and freeing trapped energy through clarity and insight. Integration follows as the harmonization of inner forces — a unification of thought, emotion, and action that nurtures coherence, balance, and shared understanding.
Finally, Alignment opens a conscious relationship with Spirit — a state of trust, creative imagination, and attunement to a greater intelligence. Together, these four phases create a living path toward awareness, freedom, and purposeful participation in life.
Our Commitments to You

Vision of the School
Guiding Intention
The guiding intention of the School of Present Time is to cultivate inner freedom and elevate human consciousness. Our work is inspired by the wisdom of those who, throughout history, have expanded perception and embodied profound presence. We seek to honor this legacy by making it meaningful and accessible in contemporary life.
By translating timeless principles into practical experience, we create a space where individuals can explore their potential, deepen awareness, and reconnect with a greater force that moves through all life. Aligned with this enduring intention, we nurture a community rooted in presence, creativity, and a conscious relationship with existence.
Guilhem Morera
Guilhem Morera is the founder of the School of Present Time, a transformative space devoted to cultivating inner growth, awareness, and conscious evolution. Drawing from both traditional practices and modern approaches, he bridges ancient wisdom with the needs and challenges of contemporary life.
His journey began with a profound interest in the work of Carlos Castaneda. He trained for ten years in Los Angeles under the guidance of Castaneda’s apprentices, and Carol Tiggs.
Upon returning to France, he led workshops and classes throughout Europe for Cleargreen, the organization founded by Carlos Castaneda to preserve and transmit his teachings.
He later established the School of Present Time as a way to continue exploring, sharing and expending the legacy of Castaneda’s work, creating a living framework for practice, inquiry, and direct experience.
ABOUT CARLOS CASTANEDA
Carlos Castaneda was an American anthropologist of South American origin who became widely known for his twelve books describing his encounter with a Mexican shaman, Don Juan Matus.
In his writings, Castaneda recounts the teachings he received from a group of seers belonging to an ancient lineage of men and women of knowledge said to extend back sixteen generations. Through this apprenticeship, he describes a radical transformation of his perception of himself and of the world around him. What began as an academic investigation gradually became a profound inner journey that challenged his rational, Western understanding of reality.
Castaneda’s books opened a window onto the little-known world of the ancient Toltecs and their vision of the universe and consciousness. They explore how the inhabitants of ancient Mexico — the builders of ceremonial centers such as Tula, Teotihuacan, Chichen Itza, and Monte Alban — conceived of energy, perception, and awareness.
His work influenced several generations of readers and inspired public figures such as Georges Lukas, The Wachowskis and Oliver Stone.
Toward the end of his life, Castaneda, together with three women who had also followed Don Juan’s teachings, developed a set of practices based on specific movements and breathing techniques designed to disseminate what they had learned. After his death in 1998, a group of practitioners he had trained continued to refine and transmit this teaching under the guidance of Carol Tiggs.
