Margaret Paul’s materials are amazing, and yet, she was even better in  person! Margaret’s modeling of being a “loving adult” throughout the  intensive and her incredible facilitation skills with participants was invaluable.  Inner Bonding is the “missing piece” I’ve been yearning for on my path of  personal, spiritual development. I’m so grateful that I had the space in my life  to take those 5 days. I’ve already made a huge shift that would not have been  possible without this experience.  

The most outstanding moment for me in the intensive was when I saw [a member of the intensive] as a one and a half year old, isolated from family and all that was familiar, faced with the decision of whether to live or die. And she chose life. As I understood the majesty of her decision, deep respect for her poured into me and filled me to overflowing. I was awed and honored to be in her presence. I had similar moments with many of the others in the group. I believe that it is from that position of deep respect for a person that I can actually be a conductor of love and light from God to his child. I want to do that. Today is Sunday, our Sabbath. We are fasting today, and I was reading in Isaiah: Is not this the fast that I have chosen? To loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thy own flesh?... And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday: And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. ...and thou shalt be called , The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.' (Isaiah 58:6-7, 10-12 King James Version) So, Margie, that is my name for you : Margie -The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in. I think it is a beautiful name that fits you well. I love the new path that I dwell in. There is more light here. Thank you for the true reflection of who I am. I remember the look on your face when you told me about meeting me for the first time. It has been a great source of peace and comfort to me. Thank you."

"Attending this intensive allowed me to really focus in and take time to find an hear my inner child. Now that I know her a little better I feel more equipped to connect with her throughout my day. I am also better able to recognize my feelings and what I am doing that is causing them. I feel more whole after completing this intensive." 10.17

"Intensive is definitely the right word. Very, very helpful. I feel I made progress I would not otherwise have made. Thank you so much for this experience. Margie's instruction and wisdom are great and the others in the group were beautiful souls." Santa Fe, NM - April 2002

'This was my second Intensive and I continue to be amazed at how I learn something new & useful about myself each time.  Inner Bonding is the only process I've ever discovered to be so all encompassing - whether your life difficulty is aloneness, shame, relationship problems, abuse or addiction to name a few.  By combining psychology & spirituality, this unique method could be used by just about anyone looking to improve their life.'

'The Inner Bonding Intensive in Santa Barbara was truly transformational for my wife Cheri & I.  The despair of our relationship last year has turned into the joy of a new beginning for us.  All my gratitude and love to Dr. Margaret Paul and her profound work on our planet.'
