It is a rare thing in life to experience unconditional love - a love that is both healing and liberating. Our five days together with Margaret Paul in the high desert was full of those profound, transcendent moments where fourteen souls became as one in a total unity of heart, mind, body, and soul. No judgment! Only love! For anyone who is deeply hurting and is seeking psychological and spiritual healing, five days with Margaret Paul will dramatically transform your life. She is a true mid-wife of the spirit with an awe-inspiring, infinite capacity to love. Your growth and gain will be determined by how much you are willing to risk and the depth you are willing to go.

'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

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."

'The Intensive was a personally challenging experience to face the obstacles preventing me from touching/creating a Loving Adult. Switching from trying to do what is right to get love, to really loving myself, is starting - and exciting! Learning to really appreciate my Wounded Self has been a huge step in allowing my Wounded Self to not fight with my Loving Adult, and allow my Loving Adult to give love to my Inner Child and Wounded Self. I learned so much from the work that other people did. So much applied to me. I enjoyed meeting like-minded people for future connection. Facing my fears, knowing I was going to be challenged if I was attempting to control, was good for me to face my fears and survive the process. I would absolutely recommend the Intensive for people who want to learn how to move out of co-dependence to wholeness, there is nothing that comes close for the time. The Intensive was a great way to learn through immersion. Thank you, Margaret.' Colorado Intensive, 4.11

'During one of the lowest points in my life, the five-day Intensive was a truly transformational experience.  The beauty, safety and openness of this experience is unique and full of joy and learning.  Dr. Margaret Paul is an incredible soul and has a gift that is truly spiritual and ultimately insightful.' Colorado Intensive, 7.11

"[The Intensive] is a personal experience and group process where you can be in touch with yourself and others in a powerfully healing way. I loved every minute of it and can't wait to do it again! I learned so much from witnessing others, as well as doing my own work. It's a good way to access your feelings and the messages they are giving you, and find the support and guidance you need in the moment, at any moment." Santa Fe Intensive, 5/04.
