Frequently Asked Questions

How much does the workshop cost?

The cost of each of the basic Series’ Workshops is $445 (with a $100 deposit made at least 2 weeks prior to workshop).  Otherwise, the workshop costs $495. These prices include all required materials.

Does the price of the workshop include lodging or meals?

No, the cost of lodging and meals is the responsibility of the participant.  We usually have a special price at some of the nearby hotels.  Call or email us for more details.

What is the Money-Back Guarantee?

If you’re not fully delighted with the experience that you’ve had at the end of the weekend, you may request your money back in its entirety.  You must complete the weekend to qualify for this refund, however.  No refunds are given to attendees who elect to leave the class early.

Is this workshop tax-deductible?

Yes, it is.  The Essence of Being maintains its 501C-3 status.  This extends to all our subsidiary classes such as the Essence of Abundance, Health, Communication, Sales, etc.

What is the time commitment?

Unless otherwise noted, each basic class is two and a half (2.5) days, beginning at 7pm on Friday evening and ending at 6pm on Sunday.  The ending times on Friday and Saturday evenings, and the beginning times on Saturday and Sunday mornings, vary depending on the particular needs of the group.  Even if you live in town or nearby, your commitment should be for the entire weekend.  The Graduate level course is 3 days, and the Mastery course is 4 days.

Will the effects of the class last longer than a few days?

If the tools taught in the class are utilized and integrated into daily life, the effects will last, literally, a lifetime!

Will this conflict with my religious beliefs?

No.  This program is not a religion, nor do we support or condemn any religion in particular.  The tools taught in this program are designed not to conflict with any religious viewpoints, and can be used in conjunction with, in addition to, and/or in spite of any religious practice.

I’ve already been doing a lot of personal reflection and growth work on myself; how is this different?

The work done in the workshop setting “turns up the heat” on the processes most people use in their private, personal practice.  The intensity of the work is amplified by having the support and encouragement of the group behind you.  The energy and power generated by a group atmosphere can catapult you to new levels of learning and growth.  You also will learn things you never thought of simply by observing other people’s processes.

Why would I want to work on myself?

If there are areas of your life you feel could use improvement, there’s only one way to effect real, positive results, and that’s to look within.  You are the common denominator in all of your experiences, and you’re the only element you can control in any given situation.  If you can learn to minimize your shortcomings and capitalize on your strengths, you can impact almost any situation to your advantage.  You’ll find ways to be happier and more effective in all your relationships, and take control of your own destiny.
