Sample unsolicited comments

Jan W (Former librarian and senior executive)
“I thought you might be interested in my reflection this morning on my studies in counseling and how your program has influenced this. Last night I got my first marks back … and was delighted to find it had been graded A. I had decided that … I was not going to pressure myself into doing anything more than pass. I was not going to keep going over and over, trying to perfect it. I have been considering how easy it had been to get an A and how much I have learned about (productivity through learning to care) for the different parts of myself.”

Jenny R (Computer services)
“I have been on a work training course and it reinforced to me how much I have learned through your classes in that I was not overly anxious and able to feel less confused when taking in new information.”

Estelle A (Chinese healing practitioner)
“I've been working with the self-acceptance meditation that you sent in your last email. I have done it many times over the last month and feel much better about myself. I've found my incompetence dreams have changed for the better. (I've been plagued with these dreams for at least 20 years.) I can see how this agitation /anxiety to change myself because somehow there is something wrong with me …has left me quite exhausted and unhappy. My body is less painful now and I've found some better health options such as hydrotherapy, drinking water changes and dietary changes.

Lian V (Psychologist)
“As a psychologist, I’m more aware of what is my responsibility and what is the client’s and I am starting to set some boundaries. (I) am more able to articulate what is happening and trust the actions I’m taking. I’m feeling more “powerful” or trusting in my judgment.”
