Testimonials From the Graduates
“When I was a kid, if I had known that I could have a tooth drilled without Novocain, and not feel pain, I wouldn’t have hated dentists and tied myself into knots of fear.”
“I wish someone had shown me how to release my feelings instead
of stuffing them, and how to communicate what I felt without offending people.
When my Dad confronted me on my birthday, I got wimpy and silent while I was
raging inside. I could have blown apart a few pillows instead of our
relationship.”
“If anyone had shown me how to express my needs without offending, I could have felt positive about myself instead of depressed.”
“Something that tortured me when I was young as tests. My anxiety often hit the panic level. Now I know that I can tap my fingertips on my face and hand in a specific sequence and dispel that anxiety in a couple of minutes. This energy patternremoved the trauma from hundreds of people on 9/11.”
“Naturally, I was terrified and obsessed with death. If anyone had listened to me and understood I would have been totally grateful, but I didn’t know anyone could actually teach me about this transition?”
“My image of adulthood was hopeless… instead of adulthood being a time of empowerment and inner mastery. I read about adults who were masterful, balanced and secure with themselves in the world. But, I didn’t dream that I was potentially one of them.”

“When I went to the Youth Mystery School in June of 2008, I was a broken soul. I had just come out of the hardest and most painful time of my life. I had lost nearly everything I held dear, my girlfriend had been assaulted and broken up with me, my martial arts practice had gone down the drain, my grades were at a record low, and I had gotten out of the hospital for a suicide attempt just a month earlier. I had all but given up on life or any good that could happen in it. I figured that if life had given me so much pain and suffering, it wasn't worth it to continue anymore. There was no way there was enough good to come, to make up for the bad I had already experienced. I had lost the will to live.
It was then, when all hope had faded, when I had totally given up the possibility that anything could prove me wrong or make life worth living... it was at that time when I fatefully went to the Youth Mystery School. The instant I met Deborah and Gay I knew this was going to be interesting. By the end of the first night, I knew this was going to change me forever. Every day I learned something new. I found strength in myself I had sacrificed to the hardships of my life. I found love and connection I had longed for since I was a small child trying to make friends in kindergarten. I found the value of myself, the connection possible among people who started as complete strangers, and the power of the universe itself
The spiritually transformative experience of the Mystery School has changed so many people's lives, and saved mine.”
