Yearlong Inquiry Intensive

Join us for an exciting year-long Inquiry Intensive designed to support you in immersing yourself in The Work. This is a powerful opportunity to dive into Inquiry on an on–going basis and realize for yourself what is actually True. The intensive includes three retreats, a series of teleconference calls, individual partnering sessions, and two personal sessions with Maggie. You will join with others who are ready to leap into the unknown and unravel thoughts that stop you from realizing your own innocence and living with more peace internally and in the world. It is all for You.

“Inquiry should take you to the boundary, the frontier of what you know and then you stop and let something other than yourself answer. You open yourself to the magic and you give it space to answer.” -Adyashanti

During this year-long intensive, you will dive deeply into The Work as both a client and a facilitator.

As a client you will:

• Dive into the places you’re afraid to go
• Allow beliefs that you don’t know are there to be seen
• Open to the terror and fear that may surface
• Get comfortable with feelings you’d prefer not to have
• Discover the traps you can fall into when you’ve been doing The Work for awhile
• Be supported in living what you realize in your daily Life
• Find humor and compassion in your humanness

As a facilitator you will:

• Question beliefs and assumptions about the role of facilitator
• Give and receive honest and direct feedback
• Learn to listen, really LISTEN to the client
• Recognize opportunities to support the client during a facilitation
• Realize the traps that you fall into as a facilitator
• Be an observer of the miracle of The Work

Group size: Maximum of 24 participants.

Testimonials
“I am grateful for the space that was provided at the workshop. It felt real and very safe. It was as though I was wrapped in cocoon getting ready to birth old beliefs that kept me bound and not realizing how much...wow...what a wonderful discovery. I was very appreciative of Maggie’s presence and depth of the Work she has done with herself, which helped me to be mirrored for my own work and growth.” Anne Marie

“It was the best workshop I ever attended, and "workshop" doesn't even begin to describe it! Thank you for a superb experience all around.” Leanne

“The workshop was fabulous! It was an opportunity to really sink into The Work in a slowed-down and meditative way. There were exercises to bring long-held core beliefs into my awareness, and then time to Work them with a partner. Both the leadership and the size of the group lent much intimacy and warmth to all we did, and the pace and the environment were easy and relaxing. I would highly recommend giving yourself the gift of this workshop - Maggie is a phenomenal facilitator and teacher of The Work". Suzanne

“Maggie opened a safe space for me to practice standing upright and unarmored in the middle of the group. She’s a model for being with others in ways that bring what we most want and most need to ourselves. I, a newcomer to The Work, was welcomed and supported. Maggie kept the fires burning, the light we needed was there as we walked into the underworld.” Philip

“Being with Maggie during the workshop was healing and insightful. Her patient and thorough approach helped me to feel confident that I could inquire any thought I had - and not be scared. Today a good friend told me that after the workshop I just am very present in myself - I thought that was a wonderful way to translate the feeling I have inside now!” Rivka
