The Inner Bonding Workshop
Heal the cycle of shame and self-abandonment that leads to anxiety, depression, addiction, aloneness and relationship failure. Discover how to love yourself rather than reject yourself, and learn to make your best decisions through consistent connection with your personal source of spiritual guidance.
The innovative Inner Bonding process shows you how to:
- Rapidly heal false beliefs about yourself, others and higher spiritual guidance
- Heal guilt, shame, emptiness and aloneness
- Move beyond self-judgment into self-compassion
- Address the resistance that may be keeping you stuck
- Learn how to heal relationship conflicts and attain the intimacy you've always wanted
This powerful and life-changing process is the result of Dr. Margaret's over 50 years of personal inner work and work with her clients.
Unless you were raised by parents or caregivers who were loving to themselves, each other and to you, you may not have learned how to lovingly manage your painful feelings. As a result, you may be operating from your ego wounded self, controlled by your fears and false beliefs.
Your wounded self may often take over in unloving ways, trampling on your hurts, ignoring them or avoiding them with various addictions and controlling behavior such as:
- Addictions to drugs, junk food, nicotine, alcohol, relationships, work, TV or gaming.
- Co-dependence - trying to control others with anger, violence, guilt or compliance - making others responsible for your sense of safety and worth.
- Staying in your head rather than being present in your body
- Self-judgment, shaming yourself
- Obsessive thinking, ruminating, worrying
- Resistance to self, others, spirit - to taking loving care of yourself
These forms of self-abandonment not only perpetuate fears of rejection, abandonment, aloneness, engulfment or failure, but they can contribute to illness. Inner Bonding is a powerful process for healing self-abandonment and learning to love and value yourself.
Through discussions, exercises and direct work with Dr. Margaret Paul or other Inner Bonding Facilitators, you learn the Six powerful Steps of Inner Bonding.
"Transformational Beyond Words! My heart and soul and true essence overflow with love and gratitude. I'm so eager and excited to go home and do Inner Bonding, and share this with my husband and son, and most of all MYSELF at any given moment." Kripalu Workshop, Margaret Dean Godhard, Mom, Educator, Gainesville, GA

Be mindful of your energy. The energy of every thought, every word, and every action, affects the whole of consciousness. Today, be conscious of pouring loving thoughts, actions and words into the Oneness of Spirit.
By Dr. Margaret Paul
"The course was an eye opener that you have to take care of yourself first. I have been trying to be controlling and manipulating too much and working out of the wounded self. The goal is to start taking care of the inner child which in turn should help you. - Excellent job!" Kripalu 9.18

'As I go through life changes - a new job, a new relationship, the loss of someone/something, I can lose my way. This workshop helped me to get back on the path where I need to be.' Weekend Workshop - Kripalu - Lenox, MA 9.14
Jerry White
"This is a beautiful synthesis of deep spiritual wisdom, psychological understanding of the human process and profound wisdom. Hooray for Margaret's clarity, kindness, compassion and brilliance. I am particularly struck by the simplicity and caring awareness of the absolute importance for healing the child within all of us and how beautifully this is accomplished (encountered) in Inner Bonding!"
Howard Moody
"I trust the Universe helped me get to this workshop at exactly the time in my life that I most needed it and was totally open to fully receiving it. After 10 years of a lot of personal growth work and healing (and therapy!), this weekend alone stands out far above anything as truly transformational. I will never be the same and that is all for the better!" Kripalu, 9.17

The Inner Bonding workshop helped me to know where and how to start the process. I was stuck on how to begin and afraid of doing it wrong and giving up. I’m so glad I attended and took the leap. I feel this is exactly the help I’ve been looking for to live a happier, healthier, loving life. Dr. Paul, you are spectacular and wise. I hope I can afford to follow along online and attend more of your workshops. Thank you!

'It was a very safe environment to share deep emotional wounds with others & work through them without judgment. I was able to be honest with myself without fear enabling the learning of the process. I felt relieved to release painful feelings that I recognized the roots of but didn't have the tools to let them go using the Inner Child dialogue as a means of doing so. I feel the program was exactly what I needed to also recognize my own responsibility & make a commitment of healing.' Weekend Workshop - Anaheim Hills, CA 3.14
