Intensives

Dr. Margaret Paul and other Inner Bonding Facilitators offer Intensives for both individuals and couples.

 

In an environment of safety and compassion, discover and heal the cycle of shame and self-abandonment that is the root cause of your anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship struggles. Dr. Margaret Paul and other facilitators quickly see exactly how you are treating yourself that is causing your suffering and gently guide you in learning to love yourself and others rather than continue to abandon yourself.

  • Heal the fears and false beliefs that limit you, moving into the ability to manifest your dreams.
     
  • Heal the abandonment, shame and self-abandonment issues that lie at the center of anxiety, depression, addictions and relationship problems.
     
  • Heal taking/caretaking control issues, resolving anger, withdrawal, compliance and resistance.
     
  • Heal fears of rejection, engulfment, aloneness, and failure.
     
  • Heal addictions to drugs, food, nicotine, alcohol, relationships, work, sex, and other addictions.

The 5-Day Intensive maximum of 12-13 people provides a safe, intimate, caring environment for individuals and couples to work in exploring deeper issues. Through Inner Bonding, you learn to develop a loving adult who connects deeply with your core self, your wounded self, and your higher guidance. We work with Inner Bonding six hours daily, giving participants plenty of time for healing work.

In the Inner Bonding work, the woundedness that started in your family of origin is addressed and you are helped to understand and heal your fears and beliefs that create anxiety and depression, and stand in the way of loving yourself and others. You learn how to create a safe space within which to resolve conflicts, as well as the necessary tools to resolve conflict in ways that lead to increased closeness in all your relationships. 

"Margaret’s Inner Bonding Intensive was life-changing, and let me explain.  I’m not using that as a platitude.  What I mean is that applying her divinely inspired process to one’s life actually changes everything.  Through Inner Bonding we are given the tools to develop an incredibly powerful and loving relationship with ourselves.  We open to our innate beauty and tenderness and our deserving-ness of love and care.  We develop a strong, healthy self-advocate who goes after our dreams, believes in ourselves, and creates magic.  AND we connect deeply to our guidance, that wise voice inside that has profound answers for us. WOW! The experiential nature of the program makes sure we both experience and anchor these transformations right then and there, giving us a newfound tool belt for weathering the complexities of life with grace and joy.  As a professional in the coaching / transformation field, I have pretty high standards (lol). I was honored to have been facilitated in such deep healing work, and new adventures abound in my life!"  ~ Barb Wade, Speaker, Author, Coach

"During the intensive, my true self, the pure and innocent child, became so clearly apparent and vivid and now he is a part of my daily life - no longer neglected. This experience has truly changed my being and life." ~Mike Devine, Farmer

Daily Inspiration

Spiritual growth is like the perennial flowers that emerge, bloom and die and then come back again next year, fuller and more beautiful. When we open to learning about loving ourselves and others, evolution and change will always occur, and the small deaths of our wounded self open the way to the emergence of the beauty and fullness of our true Selves.

Margie's work with me and others gave a concrete demonstration on how to connect to Spirit and take loving action. I realized that I saw taking loving action for myself as being selfish. Now I am empowered to know that taking loving action for myself is the very key to being loving to others.

"I find it so difficult to give feedback on the intensive, on this incredibly complex experience. The only thing I know is that ever since I have come back, I feel so much better. I was afraid that all this "magic" wouldn't work in the daily reality, but it does. It seems that a ton of weight has been taken off my shoulders, both metaphorically and literally: The tensions in my shoulders are gone. Life is fun again and I can appreciate every little moment (ok, almost every little moment). And even my environment (work and friends) notices this change, this new-found joy. What is most amazing to me is that we ourselves are able to accomplish all this, "just" by being loving parents to our inner child. This is such a powerful instrument. And the greatest gift that I took away from this intensive is that I could reintroduce my father in my life as my spiritual guidance. What I liked particularly is the safe environment (not to speak of this wonderful place in the desert); being guided on this quest of your inner child so lovingly by Margie and her team as well as through the work and the compassion of the fellow participants." Los Angeles, May, 2000

"The Intensive I attended was very beneficial. It was god to be a part of everybody's work. Many of the sessions were crossovers to things I struggle with as well. I was very amazed over and over by Margaret's ability to lead and facilitate people's sessions. She is very intuitive and sensitive to everyone. She is kind and non-judgmental." March 2023 Virtual Intensive.

"Came desperate, left happy." Santa Barbara Intensive, 11/04
Monte D. Umphress

I met Margaret about 24 years ago. I participated in her "Women's Group" in the early '80's and learned from that experience that she was the most gifted, talented, insightful and intuitive teacher I'd ever met. I found her, after all of these years, and went to her 5-day Intensive in Montecito, California last November. She radiated more than I'd remembered and her gifts and nurturing ability have grown a thousand-fold since I'd last seen her. The Intensive changed my life and the way I love myself, my children, my husband and the way I understand friends. Traditional therapy dims in comparison to the learning and growth that is accomplished in an Intensive. The wonderful people who came from all over the world, literally, shared their lives and their hearts. Each day the room was filled with acceptance, understanding, encouragement and growth. I am so grateful to have found Margaret after all of these years. Innerbonding works. 11/04

"Finally, after years of having relationships end the same way with the same problem (intense fighting and thinking the other person is the problem) and ending up alone, I finally was able to see myself and how I was contributing to the problem or how my way or being was activating or contributing to the result of separation. I see that I was addicted to anger, and I was looking outside of myself to validate who I am. I know and will take the time to love and take care of myself, and that anger is my addiction and not the solution." Couples Intensive, Santa Fe, 8/04
