"Connecting with my inner child has been one of the most wonderful experiences of my life. Finally finding that perfect mom inside me that I have been looking for all my life has been a life changing experience. I cannot wait to go home and master all these new things that I just learned. I am so blessed and grateful for this experience." Colorado Intensive, 7/07 Lenna Groudan,Business Analyst Houston,Texas 832)721-5288 lennawte@wt.net |

"Before I attended this Intensive I had been living in a very unhealthy way regarding myself. I was afraid and felt very weak to do what I knew I had to do. I have been very unhappy, pulled by everyone around me, and allowing it, disregarding my own feelings. I'm now so aware of my feelings and have the tools to take care of them. I also am able to deal with my huge problems facing me and have the strength, through my guidance, and knowledge, through my guidance, to make the right decisions and how to express them!"

"I had been apprehensive about attending the Inner Bonding Intensive for over 10 years and finally made the decision to attend the Intensive in Durango, CO in April. I felt a calling to do the deepest work in a process I trust and believe in, after having worked with Margaret Paul for many years. The relaxed, loving, accepting environment Margaret creates from beginning to end is incredible. She allows a beautiful and authentic process to occur with each and every participant in which she guides, listens, teaches and encourages us with heartfelt passion. Her Inner Bonding technique is put to its ultimate practice in the 5-Day Intensive, allowing us to really absorb and assimilate this incredible, deep and powerful process. I loved the mood of the Intensive being, "do what is in your highest good," at every moment. It was perfectly structured, yet comfortably relaxed at the same time. By the 2nd day, our group of 12 had bonded with each other, and we all formed friendships and connections that were amazing - we had shared so much of ourselves with each other. The location, Blue Lake Ranch in Durango, CO was exceptional! Stunning flower-filled grounds, exquisite rooms with beamed ceilings, great, cozy beds, marble bathrooms and a warm, accommodating staff who prepared our meals with care and love...fireplaces everywhere, peaceful and serene...truly a deluxe experience. I can't wait to come back!!
P.S. The morning meditations were really moving. They were incredibly centering, spiritual, and grounding each morning before we began our day."

The Inner Bonding Intensive was very helpful. I was able to tackle a couple of my current issues - mostly my need to control other people's actions. This keeps coming up for me in different forms and this one let me deal with my control issues around my relationship with my significant other and trace it back to my very young days. I also dealt with my need to be needed, as expressed in a willingness to take on too many volunteer activities which are cutting into my time to enjoy my personal relationships, especially to enjoy my new grandson!
My significant other was at this intensive, his first experience of Inner Bonding, so it was great that we could discuss our relationship issues and understand where each other's issues were coming from.
I have attended many activities with Margaret and continue to marvel at her caring, stamina and general personal "togetherness". Colorado Intensive, 8/07

"Margaret is an amazing, caring, giving, insightful person who I was honored to come to know. With her help I am on my way to learning how to give my little girl the love she so desperately needs. I felt a special bond with Margaret's Assistant, Sharon Pearson. The wisdom and love she shared is priceless. Blue Lake Ranch in Durango was a beautiful place that came to feel like home. Their cook Jackie especially made all of our Inner Children feel loved and mothered. The love and closeness my fellow Inner Bonders gave has me ready to return time after time. Thanks, blessings, and love to all from Durango, April 2007." Intensive.

"I think Inner Bonding is an extremely powerful tool to start bringing joy into your life just by shifting your intention into the willingness to be open and learn.

Incredible - I didn't believe it would work ahead of the Intensive. But it works once you've faced your pain, control and other issues. I feel so grateful for being there and the wonderful place we were in." Durango, CO, Intensive, 4/07 Marion Decker Bonn +492284038668 decker.marion@online.de |

"I felt apprehensive on my way to the Intensive which dissapated immediately upon entering the room where the other attendees were smiling, greeting one another and preparing for the day. It is a completely trusting environment.
This experience was life changing. Not only the work done one-on-one with Margaret, but the Love, support and input from everyone in the room contributed enormously to my transitioning from a wounded place to a loving, compassionate place. This REALLY works!" Los Angeles Intensive, 3/07

"Given the opportunity to share what the 5-Day Intensive meant to me I decided to wait and as a new bonding buddy put it 'give this testimonial the energy it deserves.' I have been home a week, back into my life, and I have found the words to explain what the Intensive experience meant to me.
When a person learns to drive, life is never the same. When you first leave home, get married, or have a child your life is never the same. Your perspective is changed forever. That's exactly what the Intensive was for me, life altering. I have practiced the tools of Inner Bonding as things came up this week and it works. I am living in a place of peace and joy that I have never been able to maintain before. The 5-Day Intensive has equipped me with tools and a support network to enjoy the journey called, the rest of my life."

"My experience is one of the best in my entire life. I leave today with tools to make the last half of my life the BEST! Thank you!

My experience of these five days of Inner Bonding was one of the most healing and enlightening times. It was all wrapped up for me in the last day of jumping in and allowing my little child her place in my life. She is now alive, seen and fully appreciated. Thank you, thank you."

This was my second Intensive. I'm a 62 year old (fairly "Hot" Grandma) who struggles with alcohol abuse. The past 3 days I have learned "how to", and that I must stand up and speak my truth. I'm quite shy and believed I should be "nice" to my husband and family members. I have been tortured inside by not being honest. I now feel empowered to speak up when things don't feel right. It will be the loving thing to do to my husband who has no idea what he does to contribute to the situation. I'm excited about the possibilities for my future happiness! L.A. Advanced Intensive, 4/07

"As a hypnotherapist, I have experienced many exploratory journeys. I can honestly say this is the safest space for opening, learning and loving yourself, others and the world around you. I will not be able to see anything in limitation again. Possibilities abound and I am open to them. Namaste."

"It has been a tremendously inspiring and liberating experience. Inner Bonding is a process of learning how to take loving care of ourselves in each and every moment. It has given me the understanding, insight and tools to enable me to do this in a way I've never before been able to with other therapies. It's given me my life!" Lucerne Valley Intensive, 11/06

"I had read a number of Margaret's books before I attended the Intensive but knew that I only had what is something called 'Book Learning.' I needed to practice Inner Bonding in a deep and regular way to fully understand it. Margaret's devotion and commitment to helping others is insirational. She has a dep connection to God and is very loving, kind and also direct and honest." Lucerne Valley Intensive, 11/06

"Learning from Margaret is a wonderful gift. Her love and compassion radiate from her. She wastes no time to get you to the present, and the relief from the pain and anguish is speedy. Her guidance and clarity goes from one group member to the next without her missing a beat. You will learn as much from each group member, their experiences and how they deal.
The love and compassion you feel for each person opens up the love and compassion for yourself. Opening to Guidance will be demonstrated over and over, and is what makes working in a group so powerful and beneficial. The process, the group and Margaret have made this an experience of a lifetime for me. This has been what dreams are made of!" Santa Fe Intensive, 10/06

"Inner Bonding is as meaningful and healing for an agnostic, which I am, as to those who can see angels and spirits. The process is universal; it will touch your deepest human essence if you will be open to learning about yourself. Margaret Paul is totally non-judgmental. She is centered within herself, intuitive, with gentle, loving strength. To take a workshop with her is to give yourself a gift: contact with the person you are and what you can grow to become." Lucerne Valley Intensive, 7/06

"Inner Bonding is the most powerful and permanent process of healing I have ever experienced - and I've experienced a lot! What is so important about this work is that it taught me how to give myself what I have been seeking outside myself for years - in therapy, meditation, yoga, you name it. It taught me how to be the parent to myself that I always wanted but never had. How empowering to know that I truly do have all the resources inside I need to heal. I have a Master's in Spiritual Psychology. This work truly is Spiritual Psychology in action. Inner Bonding changed my life more profoundly than anything else I have ever done."

"Inner Bonding has really shown me the way to recovery from my unloving and destructive behavior. Going to a 5-Day Intensive, my first, has been a tremendous help! I was apprehensive at first but quickly realized the extraordinary help that was available through this intensive process and Inner Bonding. I would recommend Inner Bonding and the 5-Day Intensive to anyone feeling 'stuck' or 'trapped' in their unloving and destructive patterns." Santa Fe Intensive, 4/06

"You think you've done the work, and there is the same issue staring you in the face once again. Do you open to learning about it or go into resistance and close? You've paid all this money to heal, so of course you have to open but there are those same protections keeping you closed!!! In any moment you can make the choice to open.... There is silence... and then the group joins in with Margaret channeling incredible wisdom, insight and truth, and through their honesty, love, and support all of a sudden in a flash the A-HA moment comes. You are flooded with a peace, calmness and joy and with a knowing that all is right with life. It is a moment of clarity and enlightenment. You are once again connected to yourself, truth and spirit and there is no greater feeling in the world. Advanced intensives are like this, yeh, they are!!!!" LA Advanced Intensive, 6/06 Merry Oislander,Teacher Deer Park,New York merryooo@msn.com |

"I gained a great sense of clarity from the Inner Bonding workshop. I was struggling with questions that therapy just couldn't answer for me. Through the help of the group experience and Margaret's great gift of being able to pinpoint the exact issues, I gained a great awareness of what was going on in my life and my relationships. Also, I learned the Inner Bonding process which has given me the tools to deal with my issues, connect with my Inner Guidance(God), and know and love myself better. I have learned that I am responsible for my own love and happiness and how to best give that to myself by connecting with my Inner Child and God. Thank you to Margaret and the group!!!"

"Since starting the Inner Bonding program, I regularly find myself believing 'It would be impossible for my life to keep getting better, yet it keeps getting better!'. The 5-Day Intensive only served to amplify, deepen and normalize this experience! Being with others going through this process was both liberating and supportive. I couldn't have integrated the practice and process as quickly and deeply any other way. Thank you Inner Bonding!!!"

"I learned a great deal at the Intensive, both personally and professionally. Personally, through my personal work and the work of others, I have learned about the dysfunctional patterns in my life and how I can change them.

Her loving attention to each person has been an inspiration to me, and the growth we all achieved is extraordinary." Santa Barbara Intensive, 2/06
