               Michael's 
                young wife's cancer and death initiated a challenging path of 
                healing as he came to accept his gayness, change careers, heal 
                his own cancer and return to school. After a heart attack, the 
                loneliness and depression he experienced deepened the intuition 
                and spirituality he now depends on to guide his life.

            After 
              her husband and father's deaths and unexplainable illness, Linda 
              faced a frightening unknown. By staying with the emptiness and moving 
              to the country she started to follow a quiet inner voice. Subtle 
              guidance through dreams, dancing, therapy and building a safe haven 
              opened Linda to healing.  |

            In 
              an intensive seminar Annmarie had a profound opening to old relationship 
              patterns. Her commitment to stay open brought loving resolution 
              with her mother and choice of partners. A powerful spiritual crisis 
              showed her how to trust her body experience and energy and led to 
              a new life as a bodyworker. |

               Through 
                intensive retreats, emotional release, and the study of religious 
                and spiritual traditions, Jonah faced and found healing for depression 
                and sexual abuse. Therapy and experience with dreams, breath and 
                body work, stories, and community service resolved years of struggle 
                with beliefs about himself and evil.

            MARY

            Severe 
              bodily pain started Mary on a path of complete physical, mental 
              and spiritual transformation. Her whole reality changed as she connected 
              to lost parts of herself. Through total self-acceptance and learning 
              to express herself freely she discovered the meaning of true strength. 
              Mary's healing led to a brand new life.  |
