What is Awakening of the Heart?

Awakening of the Heart (AOTH) is a powerful personal growth program for anyone ready for a substantial, authentic change. This is an inward journey about coming back home to yourself. It is about getting down below the surface level of the roles that you play to the deeper level of who you really are. Most people have multiple layers of emotional, physical, and mental blocks that keep them from knowing the reality of their true selves, what they are capable of, and what they can achieve in their lives. By shedding these layers, you gain clarity and awareness and begin to see the difference between being in charge of your life or having the hidden wounded parts of yourself in charge.

Awakening of the Heart provides an opportunity to discover and explore all these deeper levels and move beyond your traumas, your old beliefs, patterns, behaviors, and your self-imposed limitations.

It is also a valuable addition to individual therapy because it takes participants much farther and deeper in their growth. We believe true healing happens from the heart. This group process creates an environment in which participants can share, release, and examine themselves, creating a healthy community. Here you will feel supported and loved. You will create new beliefs and try out new behaviors in a safe non-judgmental loving sacred space.

Awakening of the Heart is a beautiful transformational journey deepening the connection to yourself and to others.

No matter where you are in your life, now is the best time to begin your personal awakening.
