Intensives
Dr. Margaret Paul and other Inner Bonding Facilitators offer Intensives for both individuals and couples.
In an environment of safety and compassion, discover and heal the cycle of shame and self-abandonment that is the root cause of your anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship struggles. Dr. Margaret Paul and other facilitators quickly see exactly how you are treating yourself that is causing your suffering and gently guide you in learning to love yourself and others rather than continue to abandon yourself.
-
Heal the fears and false beliefs that limit you, moving into the ability to manifest your dreams.
-
Heal the abandonment, shame and self-abandonment issues that lie at the center of anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship problems.
-
Heal taking/caretaking control issues, resolving anger, withdrawal, compliance and resistance.
-
Heal fears of rejection, engulfment, aloneness, and failure.
- Heal addictions to drugs, food, nicotine, alcohol, relationships, work, sex, and other addictions.
The 5-Day Intensive maximum of 12-13 people provides a safe, intimate, caring environment for individuals and couples to work in exploring deeper issues. Through Inner Bonding, you learn to develop a loving adult who connects deeply with your core self, your wounded self, and your higher guidance. We work with Inner Bonding six hours daily, giving participants plenty of time for healing work.
In the Inner Bonding work, the woundedness that started in your family of origin is addressed and you are helped to understand and heal your fears and beliefs that create anxiety and depression, and stand in the way of loving yourself and others. You learn how to create a safe space within which to resolve conflicts, as well as the necessary tools to resolve conflict in ways that lead to increased closeness in all your relationships.
"Margaret’s Inner Bonding Intensive was life-changing, and let me explain. I’m not using that as a platitude. What I mean is that applying her divinely inspired process to one’s life actually changes everything. Through Inner Bonding we are given the tools to develop an incredibly powerful and loving relationship with ourselves. We open to our innate beauty and tenderness and our deserving-ness of love and care. We develop a strong, healthy self-advocate who goes after our dreams, believes in ourselves, and creates magic. AND we connect deeply to our guidance, that wise voice inside that has profound answers for us. WOW! The experiential nature of the program makes sure we both experience and anchor these transformations right then and there, giving us a newfound tool belt for weathering the complexities of life with grace and joy. As a professional in the coaching / transformation field, I have pretty high standards (lol). I was honored to have been facilitated in such deep healing work, and new adventures abound in my life!" ~ Barb Wade, Speaker, Author, Coach
"During the intensive, my true self, the pure and innocent child, became so clearly apparent and vivid and now he is a part of my daily life - no longer neglected. This experience has truly changed my being and life." ~Mike Devine, Farmer

Daily Inspiration
It is the sharing that elevates the humble feeling of joy to a state of Grace.
By Dr. Erika Chopich
Even though I had just completed a two year Master's degree in Counseling Psychology, I learned so much more about loving myself during the intensive. The experience has substantially changed my life and I now have a very practical tool to use in transforming my fears and worries into compassion and love. I highly recommend the experience - my wife and I are incredibly grateful!

'This was my second Intensive, and it brought me to a place of peace even faster than my first one. I was able to stay present for most of the week and sustained a feeling of pure joy for hours on end. Nothing is more fulfilling than truly seeing your own essence.' Colorado Intensive, 6.10

'My second Inner Bonding workshop experience and Wow! How great it has been. Realizing deep healing needed to happen around being absent from my young daughters has been in my heart for a few years. The healing began this weekend because of the safe, loving atmosphere and Margaret's direction and guidance. Wonderful people - great hospitality - and strength to keep on keeping on!!!' NY Advanced Intensive, 11.11

'Margaret's great gift is teaching each of us how simple it can be to bring love and healing from whatever our conception of Spirit is into our innermost soul. Her process is straight forward and easy enough for even a child to master. Inner Bonding is profound beyond words.' Santa Barbara Intensive, 1/10

The Inner Bonding Intensive and Dr. Margaret Paul's wisdom, attention, and love brought out things that would have taken years to uncover in traditional therapy. I am more present, in the intention to learn, and have forged a stronger connection to my higher guidance - all in 5 days! I now more readily acknowledge the many deeply painful feelings that I formerly ignored. I also recognize the varied addictive behaviors I employ to avoid those uncomfortable feelings. Ive uncovered a slew of false beliefs that were causing me grief. Importantly, I've learned that I need to acknowledge my essence (innate talents and gifts) and to insure that I make time for the things I love in my busy life. Best of all, I now have the tools to heal and comfort myself and I own the fact that only I must learn to give myself the attention, approval, acknowledgment, and love that I need. Besides all that....the other participants were kind, supportive, and loving, the retreat compound was breathtakingly beautiful, and the food was delicious, healthy, and plentiful! Hiking in the desert hills, soaking in a hot tub with a view of the mountains, viewing a full sky of constellations (for the first time in many years) were also a special part of my Inner Bonding Intensive journey in Lucerne, CA. I highly recommend the Intensive to anyone seeking a deeper sense of self love and appreciation along with a solid connection to one's spiritual guidance. I will never forget this experience! L.A.
