Testimonials

In addition to all the many short quotes that we receive from participants, some people have taken the time to write us very exciting 'short stories' about themselves and their results. It is often very helpful to read about these experiences to help you get a sense of the deep impact of our work, how it is so different, and what you might get for yourself. This is especially useful since describing what we do is so difficult. It's just that it's very hard to put into words something that is so experiential by nature.

I Tried Everything    - Simon Hathaway

Diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Simon's health was in a disastrous state. He tried everything to restore his previous energy and zest for life, but to no avail. Desperate, he attended a Self-Actualization weekend, expecting no effect on his health, only wanting to at least be able to better deal with his plight. Simon got way more than he expected!

Red Pill / Blue Pill    - Dr. Paul Seitz

The first time Paul was offered a chance to do the Self-Actualization weekend, although he knew it was what he wanted, his mind kicked in and talked him out of it with all the usual 'rational' excuses. It would be 3 full years before synchronicity led him back to choose again. This time, he took the leap and his life changed dramatically. He now cautions others: "...don't believe your mind's attempts to keep you sleeping." (read full text)

Same or Different    - Samina Kahn

Samina has written her experience of the weekend as more of a reporter's style account. Read about the format of the class, what really happens, the energetic weave, the world of emotions and much much more. And although she says the weekend is "not a bed of roses", you leave with "a pair of extra sensory glasses that give you a new dimension on the world." (read full text)

Sleepwalking    - Caitriona Kenny

Caitriona was locked into what she calls a life of "sleepwalking". Tortuously trying to fit herself into a life she didn't want, she felt it was impossible to have the life she really wanted. Numb to life and with her spirit dying, her desperation finally brought her to MIC. Now, she is living that life the she only previously dreamt about. (read full text)

Stop Your World    - Kerry Hales

Kerry's road of discovery reveals to her who she really is rather than the character she thinks she is. What's more amazing is that she now really likes the very things about herself that she previously made herself wrong for! Being able to now consciously choose when and when not to "be" that character makes all the difference. (read full text)

Life in Turmoil    - Jackie Dorrian

Jackie's life was filled with turmoil and things she didn't want. But her life started to shift from the preview evening on... even before she actually attended the weekend seminar! She's a lot more open and aware, and doing a lot more of what she wants to do. Plus, her relationship with her mother is now fun -- something that she had not experienced for fully 22 years!

Stressful to Fun    - Claire Bowen

Claire talks about her newly aquired heightened sense of awareness, how she's learned to respond and not react to others, and how situations that previously terrified her are now enjoyable! And even as a highly educated physician, she still can't explain the results... "I still can't work out exactly WHAT has shifted in me since starting this work, but I DO recognise the results of the shift and I definitely like them!" (read full text)

I Dreamed of Feet    - Jane Sheehan

After attending a weekend Self-Actualization, Jane's life totally transformed after she stopped smiling all the time. In record speed she went from a boring office job to author, world-wide speaker and seminar leader, frequent TV and radio guest. To a life of excitement and travel where people pay her to talk to them about their feet! (read full text)

My Life was a 3    - Peter Hoblyn

People told Peter they envied him his life. But although it looked great on the surface, Peter often went to bed wishing he wouldn't wake up in the morning. Now he is experiencing a postive attitude, a sense of taking control of his life, and regaining his self-confidence. Previously dismissing even the notion of synchronicity, he now laughs as they happen to him! (read full text)

12-year-old Brat    - Sam Dubel

An amazing transformation... Sam went from a kid that got into fights everyday, was disrespectful, made constant trips to the principals office at school, and had a self-confessed "attitude" problem to a totally different outlook on life. Afterwards, his teacher describes him as very mature, has many strengths, beaming and confident. (read full text)
