This experience has been the best thing I have ever done for myself. I have learned that I am a deserving woman and that I am powerful. I am so unbelievably thankful to Lisa for seeing in me what I had never seen in myself and for believing in my ability to heal and become my true self. While also being thankful for Helaine who truly saw me the first second she laid eyes on me. I will never forget that first moment. LEAP has changed my life and my relationship with my self and others. I am honored to have had a part in this amazing process. I will cherish every moment and remembrance of this experience for the rest of my life.

I came into LEAP a lost soul, not knowing what the true block in my soul was. Through this work I learned I was unique, special, and my issues were old habits I needed to break. I thought from Universal Law and needed to live by it in the physical world. Through this process, I learned my truth and how to speak it, stop old patterns, and live in healthy loving relationships. I have grown to be the king of my kingdom. I have tremendous faith in myself and everyone around me. I see a light and love I have never seen before, and embrace it everyday. It is worth every moment. I look forward to staying in the LEAP community for years to come.

Drew, 2007

Although I am often full of words, I suddenly find them inadequate to express how grateful I am for the LEAP process. I had heard of unconditional love and acceptance but had never actually experienced it until I came to LEAP. The entire process of coming together with complete strangers and healing the inner depths of my soul has been the single most transformational gift that I have ever given myself. In the beginning I was so hesitant, especially because of the cost, but what I have learned very clearly is that I am worthy. Although I am still growing, learning and healing I can’t even begin to describe the profound changes that I have experienced. I have learned to trust and be trusted. I have learned to love and be loved. In LEAP I have found inspiration, answers, encouragement and undying support. Through the process of LEAP I have become transported to a place where my troubles seem so much farther away and my joys feel like they’re going to stay in my life forever.

PSP, 2007

I expected LEAP to change my life. It didn’t. Instead it changed me. And then the whole world changed. I reclaimed the power to create my entire life and reality exactly how I want it, from that moment forward.

Knight, 2007

Looking back on my personal experience of LEAP from my business perspective, I can say only one thing – this was by far the best financial decision I have ever made. Do you know why? Because LEAP assisted me to find more of inner balance, happiness, and authentic relationship with myself and these are things that you usually can not buy with money.

Jonathon, 2007

My results may be more dramatic than some… after the first weekend at LEAP, I had the strength and clarity to give my two weeks notice at my job and re-focus on my new career. After the second LEAP weekend, I asked my Fiancé to marry me and we had begun to plan our wedding! During the subsequent months, I have been able to set clear boundaries with family and friends, and am now only doing the things I want to do, or things I need to do to further my own goals. Needless to say I am a much happier, more effective, and content person than I was prior to LEAP. I have actually begun to practice yoga and meditation on a regular basis and feel much better for it. I have clarity and perspective that allows me to be much more creative, efficient and effective in my work and my life in general. I am a true convert to the LEAP process and plan to continue in LEAP II to further my healing.

Bill, 2006

I came into LEAP wanting to battle an addiction, to learn something more about myself, why I am who I am, and to learn stress reduction skills. I came out of LEAP connected to myself in a way that I never thought possible, with friendships that I never dreamed I would have and a way of looking at living that I never knew existed.

Jyoti, 2006

LEAP has allowed me to cry, scream, dance, play, love, release, and explore all the parts of me that were buried under rage, shame and deep pain. I recovered my inner world, my inner essence and have relearned what it means to truly love myself as I am. For the first time, I feel whole, loved and hopeful about myself and my place in the world. I finally feel that I belong here. I have developed strong intra and inter-personal skills that guide me daily in remaining strong within myself and centered in my strength.

Satya, 2006

LEAP helped me to see how other human beings are hurt like me in childhood and this helped me to release my pain and suffering from my own childhood. This was a live psychology course. This also gave me an opportunity to feel the existence of soul in the body and mind and how it is the same, in spite of all of the gross differences felt by body and mind.

Dhanya, 2006

In taking the LEAP: I have a voice and know that it is okay for that voice (my voice) to say NO! I have successfully asked for help and accepted help. I have successfully embraced my spirituality. I trust unconditional love and truly know what that looks like for me in my life. I have successfully acknowledged that I have needs and wants and have stated those needs and wants in my interactions with the people and beings in my life. I am a better friend to myself. I have successfully continued to move forward regardless of obstacles my FEAR manifests before me. I am embracing the woman I am. I am successfully stepping outside myself and watching my mind, without getting trapped in it. I am successfully maintaining presence. I have successfully let go of attachments that perpetuated abuse in my life.

Mary, 2006

I never thought I would LEAP so far to return home. The journey was long, at times exhausting, but I kept moving. Finally I arrived home at my destination - I am home. The love and the joyous light here is what I have been waiting for. How ecstatic I am today after my LEAP! In a soft warm nest I rest, ready for rebirth.

Dave, 2006

It took three years of thinking about LEAP to take the program. The week before arriving I couldn't sleep, my stomach bothered me, and I had nervous twitches. During the first weekend I went through some sort of tunnel and shook. After that release, I felt a greater connection to the world and a sense of inner calm. In the next weekends the process continued.

Harry, 2006

I hate alluding to monetary metaphors but LEAP was worth every penny. I feel that my angels led me to LEAP so that I could finally open up a vista to healing and a whole lot of healing I received in the most loving environment I have ever experienced.

Mahadevi, 2005

LEAP has been the most amazing experience I’ve had in my entire life. I do feel like a different person. I have been able to break negative patterns I’ve had my whole life.

Scott, 2004

To accept an invitation to love yourself initiates a journey that will likely last a lifetime. It is amazing what a head start one LEAP can give you.

Anjuli, 2003

I remember the girl hiding out on the porch of the LEAP retreat house that first weekend. It was raining, cold, and gray and my heart was like a fist curled uptight and angry in my chest. Five weekends later I had said all the things I had never said before and learned that the world would not fall apart at the sound of my voice. I shed every angry, sad, and shameful tear and found my eyes crystal clear at their end. I owned my secrets and addictions only to discover I was loved for all of myself. I sank into my victimizing, persecuting, and rescuing patterns so that I could stand in healthy relationship. I remember the woman standing in the garden of the LEAP retreat house on that last weekend. The sun was shining, warm and bright, my hand was held and my heart broken open.

Kayla, 2003

This is by far the most powerful personal growth program I’ve ever participated in. I have experienced lasting change in areas where I had been feeling stuck and anxious. I feel more freedom and freshness in my creativity. I am able to be more present in my relationships with friends, colleagues, students and family, and I have built a love relationship that I don’t think I would have been able to build in the past. I have a deeper understanding of people and I am able to be more perceptive and sensitive which has helped my teaching immensely. I am stronger now and finally really understand what it means to love myself.

Patrick, 1999

From being trapped and unaware, to having the locks undone around my heart, I’ve discovered my power that has been there all my life.

Deb, 1999

When I first heard about the LEAP, I was skeptical and reluctant. I was never a "group person" and came up with dozens of reasons why the LEAP wasn't right for me, but I felt stuck. I was reevaluating my career, was in an unfulfilling relationship and had a powerful sense that something was missing in my life. So I took a chance on the LEAP and it was the one of the best decisions I've made. I enjoyed a five-month courtship and fell in love during the LEAP, with someone I had overlooked - myself. I now know how to share this love and create truly intimate relationships by keeping my heart open, speaking my truth, living with integrity and creating prosperity through releasing what no longer works.

Laura, 1999

The LEAP workshop came into my life at just the right time. I had a year of individual therapy and was ready for the next step. The struggle I was having with relationships has been absolutely transformational by working through my fears with a group of loving people. I have found such peace in letting go and trusting others. I now feel ease in life that I never imagined was possible. The love and support that the LEAP has brought is priceless, and I wish everyone could have this opportunity to find freedom with releasing old patterns and shame and embracing the richness of living a conscious life!
