Workshop Overview


The Awakening Most of what appear to be external obstacles in life are really internal ones. We complain about him or her, this or that, and convince ourselves that if things outside of ourselves would change, we would change and be content. But our internal landscape determines our experience of the external one, and must be addressed at all levels rather than restricted to intellect and insight. The Awakening is a creative, empowering, process-oriented weekend, focusing in depth on the relinquishment of a thought system based on fear for a thought system based on love.


The Edge The Edge exposes the fallacy and false promise of the ego’s ultimate lure... things that we attach ourselves to as substitutes for God, convinced that those things hold the key to happiness. This is a workshop that focuses on healing addictions and attachments, which are often not as obvious as an addiction to drugs, alcohol or cigarettes. What your ego holds so dear may be work, fame, relationships, sex, power, money, food, or even spirituality. Letting go of the false promise of attachments allows us to stop living in the future, and start experiencing the present.


PRAC for Life Our therapeutic model is cohesive, powerful and unique. At the request of those who have taken our workshops, we created a three year Practitioner/Counsellor Training Program, registered in BC with the Private Career Training Institutions Agency (PCTIA). The mandate for this practitioner training program is ‘physician heal thyself’, with a focus on your life as the curriculum, applying principles to self before applying them to others. The program is open to those wanting to take it for personal growth, or for professional counsellor training. In Canada, graduating students are eligible to apply for registration as a practicing counsellor to the Canadian Professional Counsellors Association (CPCA).


Drawing Down the Moon The Women's Workshop is a transformational workshop designed to help women experience the essence of who they really are. Drawing Down the Moon gives us the key to release ourselves from a self-imposed prison, created by what we think we need to be or fear we are. By connecting to the experiential knowledge of who we really are, we free ourselves to flow through life with ease, certain of the true nature of our own power. From here we have something meaningful and authentic to give to those around us. We become proactive, rather than reactive, extending ourselves into a world that needs a new understanding of power.


Men and Miracles Men and Miracles is a powerful workshop designed to help men redefine what it means to be a man in today’s world. The truth is that beneath the mask of guilt is the beautiful essence of man waiting to be remembered for what he truly is. From this place, we have something meaningful and authentic to give to those around us. Somewhere between the mask of being nice but invisible, and the armor of being right but alone, is the face of a man being truly honest, truly certain and truly loving.


Relationship Alive Relationship Alive redefines the impasse we inevitably reach in relationships as when the relationship begins rather than ends. In this workshop we discover that the purpose of relationship is to evolve past the early ‘romantic’ stage into a deeper place for healing, where each can experience fullness of self in relation to the other. The difficulty of relationship is transformed into opportunity for true intimacy through learning to become our partner’s ‘soft place to fall’. The greater our capacity for love, the greater our experience of love.


The Rude Awakening The Rude Awakening is an intense, passionate and exciting two week journey toward a new definition and experience of leadership. A Course In Miracles states that all of us have a ‘special function’, a particular and unique life purpose. This is a workshop committed to embracing the entirety of our human life experience and using every nuance of it to reveal this purpose, then acting on it. We bring ourselves into a state of absolute congruity, in alignment with God and the universe, and discover a profound sense of wholeness, clarity and direction. Life becomes an adventure.
