Daily Inspiration
Letting yourself cry when your heart is moved opens you to God - and to love and joy. If you put a lid on your tears, you also put a lid on your joy and your ability to love. Today, let yourself cry when your heart is touched with sadness or moved by empathy or joy.
By Dr. Margaret Paul
In the first 5 minutes of work we did in the intensive, we moved further than we did in an entire year of couples therapy. The environment was wonderfully loving, supportive and non-judgmental. At the same time, it was a highly effective environment in which to learn and grow. I came into the intensive open and ready to grow. I got more than I bargained for! My husband came into the intensive skeptical. He left his skepticism behind long before the end of the first day. This was a tremendously valuable experience for me as in individual, for us as a couple, and for us as parents. In addition to the Inner Bonding process - which I consider a valuable tool, I came away seeing clearly the dynamics of my relationship with my husband which does produce good results, and more importantly, what I can do to create more loving, fulfilling relationships in my life. -- Couples Intensive, Santa Fe, NM, 2002

'I experienced what it felt like physically, emotionally and spiritually to shift from the intent to control to the intent to love. I know that if I can do it once, I can and will continue to practice this forever!' Colorado Intensive, 4/10

I have been to many intensives. There were all very different and I got so much from each one. I really believe that the couples work/intensive saved our relationship. We have also gone to a few on our own. Do yourself a favor...and go!

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 first Intensive with my partner and it was incredibly powerful - we each worked on issues about our own work & personal issues, and saw how we try to control each other in different areas. The understanding I got is going to transform my relationship with him - I can already feel the increased aliveness, curiosity and openness." Advanced Intensive, NY, 11/07

"This was an incredible learning experience. Seeing first hand, Inner Bonding put into practice is beyond words. I now know how to use words & define feelings to look after myself, and that is truly all that matters. Margaret Paul is an amazing, compassionate woman. She has changed the way I will view life. I wish I knew this 20 years ago - for me & my children." August Intensive, 8/08
