"Cherished Relationships"
Course material in English or German

It has long been believed that relationships are the fast track to spiritual growth and development. This may follow that while in relationships knowledge about freedom, authenticity, comfort, and strife are quietly investigated.

This course is not targeting how to fix a failing marriage or how to find a desired partner. Using the power of energetics, find verbal contradictions that align with the classical language of mystics. Learn to describe the indescribable to open your mindset beyond any cultural self-definition. Like the Tao that can’t be spoken, learn about forces and the field effects that register from one particular body/brain receiver to the corresponding experience in another. Open to create worlds that overlap and express beyond any ability to be verbally expressed.

Dynamic responses bring deeper exploration. Learn how to step into the cloak of clarification to build relationships you cherish. This is not gender or age or geographic or cultural specific. It is a way of living. It begins with tenderness and effort. Treat yourself dearly to shelter and protect your own being. Give new forms of consideration to those with whom you desire to share. When you have undertaken this task and reached beyond selfishness or self-centeredness, you can begin this flight beyond words.

This course creates a map for the soaring of your human spirit and for your emancipated life on earth. Each month you will receive three tasks to practice for 28 days and an ebook for support and encouragement.

It is suggested you take this after one or more of the five foundational courses.

Prerequisite – muscle response testing skill, attendance at a Sue Gurnee event on location or online. There are no other projects involved.

This is a course that can bring new meaning to interactions both near and far. .
