Daily Inspiration
Today, notice your anger, irritation or frustration. Notice that you may feel these feelings when you are not accepting your powerlessness over others and outcomes and attempt to control what you can't control. Today, accept what is and then control what you can control - your own reactions.
By Dr. Margaret Paul
"The intensive provided a wonderful and authentic experience of being in a healing community, with the work facilitated by a true Elder, Margaret, whose laser like compassionate inquiry was frequently utterly transformational, and always wise, insightful and loving. Shifts occurred in people’s self views, their understanding of their challenges, their connection to their True Self, the boundaries in their life, the true causes of their suffering; the list could go on. Margaret is a true Elder, guiding people to the truth of their life. I felt fully seen, held and loved. It was the most useful inner work I have done. "

"I first attended a weekend Workshop (2 days) which gave me a great overview and encouraged me to attend the next Intensive. I've done my share of therapy but this Inner Bonding Intensive (5-day) has given me an amazing connectedness to myself and the tools to continue my process of growth and self-improvement. The gentleness in helping me become aware of areas of work for me - allowing me to accept the input - I felt acceptance and safety and a sense of belonging that I've never felt before in my life. I've grown a true and authentic sense of self-worth. The friends I made will be lifelong. I've received the gift of a new family made up of those friends. The Inner Bonding steps are the light at the end of the tunnel. The light is forgiveness and hope and love - and my antidote to loneliness and emptiness." Santa Barbara Intensive, 1/07

'I learned simple yet profound techniques to help me handle challenging situations from a place of love. Spiritual tools need to be simple and oriented to joy and love to be used daily. These are!' 5-Day Intensive, 10.15 - Loveland, CO

'As always, a life changing experience. To know and have reinforced over and over that I am the provider of my joy, love and life experiences. I am the source of all that I want, need and crave.' NY Advanced Intensive, 11.11

My (what I thought was a good) marriage of 27 years had just ended, my AA sponsor of 21 years had just died and the grief was so overwhelming I was not able to do my job so I quit work when a leave of absence was denied. Life as I had known it was over. I was scared, overwhelmed, stressed to the max, feeling alone and abandoned and worthless and inadequate and just wanted to be dead. The divorce will have been final 2 months by the time I return home from this Intensive and I know now that I can face what lies ahead without feeling victimized and violated if I'll utilize the tools I have gained at the Intensive. I will actually be able to self actualize and be authentic "in the real world". I can give up expecting others to take care of me and I can give up attempting to control what others say, think and do. I am grateful for this life changing event

"I felt very safe. I had my cute and fun sides reflected back to me. I needed to see these authentic reflections in order to see myself. I leave this intensive knowing I have gained a great deal. After all the atoms realign themselves, I will be much more whole. I feel this process occurring. I feel more centered, more joyful and hopeful that I can leave here an deal with important challenges and relationships in a healthier way." Lucerne Valley, CA June, 2000
