Heartwork Retreats

I received myself with less resistance than ever.

It was as though 'I' got out of the way during those quiet times. And that experience leads me to know how painful it gets when 'I' do get in my way.

—Nancy Ruby

I did come home to myself. I faced and let go of so much pain and tension and have so many tools to use. To be at a place of greater self-acceptance and self-love with the whole of me is a Holy Grace.

I can move again. I can be with myself. I am alive. There is blood and life flowing in me—not the concrete that was sitting on me and stuck inside of me.

Thank you Dale for your very hard work, your dedication and patience. You have truly developed an incredible approach and way of life. I want to continue to be a part of the mission of Heartwork. It’s saving me!!

This workshop enabled me for the first time, in so many years, to find peace.

—Gary Arnold

By getting into my body, waking up my heart, I not only knew how I needed to change but I fell in love with myself for the first time.

By working through it with my resistance, I learned gentleness. I became aware of the violence I perpetrated on myself by forcing, enduring, ignoring and coping. The gentleness released my love.

I feel a need to study or be with or visit holy places – but now that I think of it—the holy place is inside.

—Pat Mueller

This workshop was so much more than I could have hoped for. It has really changed my life. I finally found myself, my child and my spirituality. The entire week was so moving for me and to watch the rest of the participants was such a gift.

I have always thought and felt that someone else had to be present for me to be happy. I learned that I can be my best friend.
