A Living Practice Within the Akashic Records
What happens when you stop studying the Akashic Records from the outside and enter them as a living practice?
This is the guiding focus of Akashic Records Depth Studies.
Not a course you complete.
A practice you enter which deepens as you do.
Every month brings new material, new questions, and new territory explored together. You walk at your own pace. The Akashic Records join you where you are, every time.
Your First Three Months
You are in full studies from day one — masterclasses, practicum, the monthly workbook, everything. The guiding intention is that you want depth from the beginning.
Alongside the regular rhythm, your first three months include three additional foundation sessions — one each month, live with me and with other new students. These sessions give you the grounding to participate fully:
Open for You — You learn to open the Akashic Records for yourself and discover that knowing is a process, not a destination. This is about living from inside-out within your own truth.
Open for Other — You learn to open the Akashic Records for another person and experience witnessing as sacred practice. In trusting yourself with the sacred source of another, you step beyond your blocks to self-worth.
Open for Non-Human Energy — You learn to connect with energy beyond the human — places, animals, organizations, collective fields. This expands your understanding of what the Records hold and how consciousness moves beyond individual experience.
Each foundation session comes with its own workbook. By the end of three months, you have opened the Records for yourself, for others, and for non-human energy — and you are already deep in the rhythm of the Studies.
Good to Know: the journey of learning to connect with the Akashic Records is an ongoing practice which deepens with your experience. This means that as you learn to open for others, you will find learning which helps you deepen your connection within your own Akashic Records. Learning to work with non-human energy brings deeper understanding to your connection with human energy in the Records. Thus, this isn't a practice with a destination, rather a continual spiral journey that opens pathways not only within the Akashic Records – but within your life as a physically-spiritually integrated being of becoming.
Two Agreements, the Clarity Protocol, and The Witness Community
When you enter the Akashic Records through the process you learn in the foundation sessions, you make two sets of agreements.
Within these agreements, you agree to learn and use my process for connecting with the Akashic Records — in all classes, in all practice within the program. This process is what gives the work its depth and integrity. This is the less-traveled road, and walking it requires commitment to walking it fully.
Next, when you learn to open the Akashic Records for another person, you agree to open only for other students within the program until you have completed the Clarity Protocol.
The Clarity Protocol is a guided process — with its own workbook, included in the program — that helps you establish clear intention for your Akashic Records work. Within the protocol process you define how you will be in relationship with others and the Records outside the study program. This is not a gate to rush through. This is a foundation for how you carry this work into the world with integrity.
Additionally, Depth Studies is one of the circles of The Witness Community. And Depth Studies works as Witness Community without hierarchy, without domination, and with everyone on equal footing from their first day. Within our Witness Community, we don't come to tell others what they are doing wrong. We join to witness each other and ourselves as worthy, whole and complete, learning to live life fully in trust and truth.

The Monthly Rhythm
Depth Studies move within a monthly cadence. Each month a new workbook arrives from the Depth Studies Library — a small book in its own right, with articles, practice for self, other, and non-human energy, and a section of Akashic Records theory as it relates to the topic.
The workbook shapes everything in a month:
Masterclasses meet several times a month with me on Zoom. This is where the month's topic is explored — where I share, where you ask, where the conversation goes wherever depth guides.
Practicum meets twice monthly. Guided by our Community Coordinator, this is where you practice — opening the Records for self, within partnership and as a group. In Practicum, we are working with what comes through, deepening your trust through direct experience with the month's focus.
New topics every month. New depth every month. The same practice, moving forward, spiraling deeper.
Membership in Depth Studies Includes:
Live masterclasses with me — twice monthly on Zoom.
Practicum sessions with the community — run by our Community Coordinator several times a month via Zoom.
Three foundation sessions in your first three months, with workbooks — Open for You, Open for Other, Open for Non-Human Energy. With other new students and scheduled at mutual convenience.
Eight new advanced workbooks from the Depth Studies Library, shaping the month's masterclasses and practicum.
Recordings of all masterclasses — available in your student dashboard for review or if you can't attend live.
The Clarity Protocol workbook — your guided process for establishing intention for how you carry this work beyond the study program.
Your student dashboard — where all study material lives: workbooks, recordings, foundation materials, and the full course archive.
The Witness Community newsletter — delivered weekly, with a calendar of events, an study tip, and announcements.
Everything in Wyrd Words — workshops twice monthly, the full Wyrd Wisdom Workbook Library, and Akashic Record Insights. These are the roots your practice grows within.
Almost Thirty Years Inside the Records
I'm Cheryl Marlene.
What I've learned in almost thirty years inside the Akashic Records is this: the Records don't demand perfection. They deepen through trust.
Depth Studies support the student. You enter a living relationship with the Records. You walk at your own pace. You are witnessed — by me and by an international community of fellow witnesses — as someone being and becoming.
I am not here to teach you what I know. I am here to share what I have learned and walk alongside you as you learn to trust what you know from the deepest part of yourself.

Questions Before You Join
What happens in Akashic Records Depth Studies?
From day one, you are in the full Depth Studies — a new advanced workbook every month or so shapes two masterclasses and several practicum sessions with me on Zoom. In your first three months, you also participate in three additional foundation sessions where you learn to open the Akashic Records for yourself, for others, and for non-human energy. You also receive everything in Wyrd Words — workshops, the Wyrd Wisdom Workbook Library, and Akashic Record Insights.
Do I need prior experience with the Akashic Records?
No. The foundation sessions meet you where you are. Some people arrive having never heard of the Records; others have been practicing for years. Both find depth here.
Is there a certification?
No. There are no levels, tests, or certifications. The Studies deepen self-trust through practice — not competence through testing.
Do I have to use Cheryl's process for opening the Records?
Yes. When you join Depth Studies, you agree to learn and use my process in all classes and practice within the program. This is what gives the work its depth and integrity. If you've learned another process elsewhere, you're welcome here — but within the Studies, we work exclusively with the process I share with you.
What is the Clarity Protocol?
The Clarity Protocol is a guided process that helps you establish intention for how you will work with the Akashic Records outside the study program — especially in relationship with others. Until you complete it, you agree to open the Records for others only within the program. A Clarity Protocol workbook is included with your membership.
How long does it take?
There is no finish line. The Studies are an ongoing practice. Some people stay for months, some for years. You stay as long as the practice calls you.
What if I miss a session?
Life happens. Missing a session doesn't mean falling behind. All masterclasses are recorded and available in your student dashboard. The rhythm continues, and you rejoin when you can.
What time zone are the live sessions in?
All gatherings are listed in US Pacific Time.
What technology do I need?
A stable internet connection and the ability to join via Zoom. A camera and microphone — being seen and heard is part of how we witness each other. A quiet space where you can be fully present.
What is the focus of Akashic Records Depth Studies?
This is a living practice, not a course. You enter a relationship with the Akashic Records grounded in trust — trust in yourself, in the process, and in what the Records reveal. New depth every month, shaped by original material you won't find anywhere else. No certification. No hierarchy. A practice you enter and deepen as long as it calls you.
What is the investment?
$150/month. Some scholarships are available.
How do I join?
Choose your membership and sign up. After you join, our Community Coordinator will reach out to welcome you and help you get started.
Can I add mentorship?
Yes. Mentorship with me can be added at any time — 30-minute or 60-minute sessions. Learn more.
