Awakening Now
Join Ilona Ciunaite for honest conversations and guided explorations into the nature of self, consciousness, and awakening.
This podcast is for those who are looking not just to understand awakening, but to see it — directly, in their own experience.
Each episode invites you to slow down, inquire, and notice awareness itself.
Through guided Deep Looking sessions and dialogues with teachers, authors, and fellow explorers, Ilona opens the door to what many call spiritual awakening — seeing through the illusion of self, and discovering peace that doesn’t come and go.
You’ll explore:
– Self-inquiry and direct experience
– Deep Looking and seeing beyond the mind
– The process of awakening and integration
– Presence, awareness, and the end of seeking
Ilona Ciunaite is a guide, author, and co-creator of the Liberation Unleashed community. For over 14 years, she has been helping seekers all over the world discover freedom through direct experience.
If you are ready to look within, this podcast offers clear guidance and grounded conversation — simple, sincere, and free of spiritual jargon

In this episode I talk to Luchana Uzunova. You may know her from numerous interviews she had with seekers and explorers for Nothing FM, Liberation Unleashed and on her own platforms. Luchana is a guide on Liberation unleashed and in this conversation we reflect on what awakening is not based on the list that was made by LU guides to help seekers to uncover expectations of awakening.
To get the most out of this dialogue press pause and reflect by yourself before listening to our responses and reactions. You may want to have a pen and paper ready to write down what you think and feel for deeper interactive experience and more focused self-inquiry.
The story of Luchana' s life ended while having a guided conversation in the Liberation Unleashed forum. And that was it – the most simple and magnificent discovery ever – there never was a Luchana to begin with. Just life, as always, doing its thing. She is guiding with joy, love and softness, but she is also a little bit firm when it is needed.
Luchana guides mainly by video which due to feedback seems to be more direct and immediate.
