"This was a powerful intensive which has inevitably shifted my ability to tune into my feelings in a way which results in being compassionate with myself and others."
Tom Robinson

"My experience was very validating and intense. I saw that I was not regressing as I though I was, but I was really going to deeper levels. Understanding why I didn't trust my own decisions and judgments has been so liberating and enlightening. 'I am the best authority on me.' Margie's peacefulness is so inviting and I enjoy tapping into her wisdom. She shares so freely of herself. She is truly a gift from God. Thank you, Margie!" Ossining, NY - August 25-29, 2000

"The intensive has had an impact whose full import continues to unfold.

"I have had to realize, that even though I thought I was acting in sound ways in my interactions with others, in particular with people I was intimate with, I was not in fact practicing what I was preaching. Margaret Paul helped bring this into my awareness.
The intensive has helped me to cope with what may be the end of a relationship that was very important to me. I have personified my inner child with a little teddy bear who now sits next to me when I am at my computer, who rides along with me in the car when I go to work, and who joins me in my bed at night. The unexpected thing is that because of this bear, I do not feel alone, even though I am. It appears that by taking care of my inner child in this way I have made friends with myself and am therefore not truly alone. And in the process I feel I have also discovered the adult in me, who is mindful of how he treats his inner child. The little bear has thus also become my conscience. I look at him and know when something I might be tempted to do, such as stuffing myself, is not OK.

I am sure that this is just the start of a longer process of learning. I am grateful that I was able to participate in this course. I have also appreciated the love, support, and acceptance that was showered on me by all who participated - Margaret, assistants, and fellow seekers. And I very much appreciated the individual support, attention, and time I received from the assistants after the main sessions had ended each day - thank you Michel, Andrea, and Marsha."

"I am filled with gratitude for my new awareness. There is only one need and that is love. Love starts with acceptance. Acceptance comes from Spirit. All I need do is remain open to Spirit. I stand in awe of the power of learning which comes from 12 open students and one gifted and guided teacher." Advanced Intensive, Amherst, MA, 10/04

"The inner work that I could experience has been really profound, I could really get free of a very old imprint of my wounded self. With the clear and connected Presence of Margret and the group I have released myself of guilt, shame and the deep feeling that there is something wrong with me.

This Intensive has been the drop that made it all spill over. A deep sense of integration of wisdom, love and forgiveness has been opened. And now after 5 days of connecting in very healing and safe space, I am embracing the gift my Loving Adult is giving me: 'You are innocent and loved, there is nothing wrong with you.' I am deeply grateful." November, 2023

"One of the most beautiful, painful, mystical, fun experiences of my life. Joy beginning to break through the clouds!" February 2002 - Lucerne Valley Intensive, CA
