"I am filled with gratitude for my new awareness. There is only one need and that is love. Love starts with acceptance. Acceptance comes from Spirit. All I need do is remain open to Spirit. I stand in awe of the power of learning which comes from 12 open students and one gifted and guided teacher." Advanced Intensive, Amherst, MA, 10/04

"The Intensive workshop was by far the most useful tool I have ever been taught to deal with my feelings and emotions. I feel I have a clear understanding of how to take care of myself by listening and feeling and honoring my true essence. To heal oneself is truly an empowering process. Margaret Paul is the most amazing communicator I have ever met. This is not a voodoo, snake oil, hocus-pocus process. It is about what is truth and what is not." Santa Fe, NM, 4.05

When we came to our first intensive we were both emotionally drained and ready to walk away from the relationship. Months and months of anger, blaming, shaming, attacking, and withdrawing had taken their toll. We reached our turning point the first day when we both realized the simple truth - through the six steps of the Inner Bonding process - that the real issues were not with the other person, but within our individual selves. Almost miraculously, this simple (simple, not easy!) process not only allowed us to see the real source of our pain, but gave us concrete, incredibly effective tools to change the pain into joy. As a result, we have now reached the deepest most loving space ever in our relationship. Our love is solid and now we have the tools and process to keep it alive.

"It was a powerfully, transformative experience, resulting in a deep sense of connectedness within myself, with my spouse, and my fellow workshop attendees." Santa Barbara Intensive, 1/07

My experience in the IB intensive was more powerful than 10 years of counselling.  My marriage was transformed when I attended my first intensive and then my husband started practicing IB with me and we attended together.  We are truly achieving intimacy in our relationship.  It has exceeded all expectations.  It is the best environment to heal self judgement and shame.  I have never been happier in my life.  Dr. Margaret Paul models the healthy adult.  I am filled with gratitude to have the opportunity to work with her.  I would highly recommend an IB intensive to anyone who desires to grow in body, mind, and spirit.

'It was an emotional, beautiful experience. I am forever grateful for the days I spent with the amazing and brave participants. I am excited to practice Inner Bonding and getting to know my Inner Child. Margaret is such an inspiration and a beautiful soul.'  Northern California 3-Day Advanced Intensive - August 2015
