This is a wonderful organization working to help people open their hearts, living the fullest life possible, and forging an amazing new family in the process. I recommend them 100%!!
I first participated in Insight over twenty years ago while living in New England. I then revisited them 12 years ago in New Mexico. Their lessons and "Insights" have been life changing and helped shift my paradigm to one of service and personal fulfillment and actualization. I have recommended this work to hundreds of people. Simply stated, "my life is better because of Insight".

Insight I for me opened the door for a more authentic self. Helped put me on a path to better awareness and understanding on how to move forward and leave all my past judgments behind without carrying any resentment. It set me free to develop a new way of seeing life and gave me a set of tools to use in my own personal journey. Insight didn't tell me how to think, it helped me with my thinking and allowed me to see what I believed more clearly, and helped me to move forward into the life I desired.
Insight has a wonderful system to cut through the unnecessary "stuff" that gets in the way for an individual or group to succeed. You become aware of patterns that have gotten in the way of the individual or group from being fully present. I am changed for the better....I have seen others over the years reap a more productive successful life...just through an awareness and knowing of yourself.
My husband and I did Insight I and Insight II. Really it is the most powerful retreat I never have had. It was in Miami and really made me learn many important things about me in the mirror of others. I love the program, I wish for an insight III in Miami or in my town city, Puerto Rico. I would recommend it to anybody who want a real open eyes experience about oneself. A growing, loving, powerful experience with real professionals full of compassion and knowledge.
Thanks for the work you do to make this world more loving,

Insight's a really genuine experience. Nothing but love and a lot of space to work on yourself with a great group of people. Highly recommend for anyone interested in self discovery and opening up your eyes to good things.
My life has been touched forever by attending Insight I & II.
It has put me back in touch with my best self! My authentic self!
The loving that has always been available has been called forward and 'remembered'.
I would have loved to have taken this as a teenager and a young adult.
It's an incredible experience for anyone at any age!
I've attended three Insight seminars and have volunteered in various capacities. I found the experience life-changing, not only in myself and in others as well. Actuallky, I would have to say that experiencing the change in others was more profound than the experience within myself. I mean that I expected the process to assist my own path of personal growth and transformation, but to see and experience the often spontanious change in others was so powerful that I felt such an explosion of joy that it brought me to tears, and being somewhat stoic, that is the highest praise I can offer. Insight presents material in a way that is easy to understand and implement immediately for anyone being open to change and transformation. The Love and Grace I've experienced attending seminars and volunteering have made more more aware of my humanity and how the smallest of efforts positively affects my quaility life and with those with whom I interact.
Insight Seminars changed my viewpoint about life, the significance of lovingkindness as an underlying glue in human relationships of all kinds. It gave me a new view of my own potential to contribute in small (or large) ways to my culture, in the view of myself and all human beings as non-victims. It enhanced my sense of the potential for lasting well-being no matter what was happening outside me.
It also inspired me to go on to further graduate work and studies, and introduce others. I also donated many, many hours as a volunteer, after experiencing such powerful changes myself.
I've learned to trust, forgive, accept, appreciate and love myself and others more. My whole family - my wife, 3 daughters, brothers and parents have gained greater self esteem and confidence to meet the challenges of everyday life better. I began when I was a mechanic in the early 80's and now am a successful business owner. The D.R.I.V.E - Determination, Responsibility, Integrity, Vision, Enthusiasm - are some of the tools taught at Insight, that are invaluable in overcoming obstacles towards a better life...
The Insight Seminars assisted me in understanding how I was getting in my own way. I was able to experience myself in a truly heartfelt way that enabled me to open to others in the same way. this literally changed my life. I subsequently volunteered myself to be of assistance to others in much the way those who had gone before me were there for me. Integrity and compassion are the hallmarks of Insight for me.
Insight University's doctoral program in transformational leadership is ground-breaking. It supports people in becoming leaders in their own lives and in the world while simultaneously offering the students a rich and strong academic experience.
Previous Stories
I have been involved with Insight University as both a participant and faculty member. As a participant in Insight Seminars, I learned skills and distinctions that have allowed me to live a life that is more heart-centered. As a faculty member in the doctoral program in transformational leadership, I have supported and witnessed the transformation that is possible for others. The newest program by Insight University, the Conscious Leader Program, is a brilliant offering for bringing forward greater wisdom for leaders in the workplace. Insight University's impact in the world is unparalleled. What a gift!
Insight Transformational Seminars have been a major part of my personal growth journey. I took Insight 1, the Awakening Heart Seminar, in 1984, when I was 24. Now it's almost 30 years later and I can honestly say the inpact is still relevent in my life. I went on to take Insight 2, 3, and 4, and assist at many trainings over the years after that. To this day the loving heart is still at the center of all they do, and the power of this work to heal, rejuvenate, and replenish cannot be overestimated. I highly recommend it.
The work done by Insight University is unique and transformational. I am continually amazed by the depth and clarity of the work.
Insight I and Insight II had a huge impact on me. It gave me a real and lasting experience of love, support, and, just as the name suggests, insight into the best of myself and others. I'm very grateful for this organization and the work it does!
Great mission, vision and values driven organization. I have been involved with insight since childhood when I did children's insight. It changed my life for the better and I keep going back for more. Join and change your life.
As a health professional dealing with chronic pain patients and orthopedic and traumatic injuries, the knowledge I receive and support I feel at insight University has not only improved my level of peace and happiness but has made me a better therapist for my patients. The insights that I share with my patients that I have learned and integrated from the courses I have taken at insight have helped my patients get better faster, have hope of recovery and truly take responsibility for their lives, leading to health and happiness for them as well. I recommend Insight University highly as a method to lead a more fulfilling life.
Insight provided me with an opportunity to meet with myself, to be confronted with my own limiting beliefs and I got to consciously choose to discard behaviors that did not serve me and adopt new behaviors which took me closer to my goals. In addition, the environment is so loving and caring that I get out of there in a state of grace, everytime.
Uma vivência que traz a possibilidade de olhar para si mesmo de uma forma crítica e eficaz. É como colocar sua vida e suas experiências em evidência de forma a dar visibilidade e possibilidade de ação consciente. Se você busca estar consciente de seus problemas, serenidade para fazer a escolha certa e coragem para agir, o Insight é uma grande ferramenta!
The Insight offered me ways to find my happyness, to be a better person for mylself and for the other people. In the Seminars, I could saw me how I really am, without masks, and accept mylself and really love me , finally be aware of me, what I do, and who I do everything. I appreciate it.
Eu gosto de um provérbio antigo de Heráclito que diz que não podemos nos banhar duas vezes no mesmo rio, simplesmente porque o tempo corre e a água nunca mais será a mesma. Nem nós. Há mais de 10 anos estive em um Seminário Insight e o valor dessa vivência espelhou-se positivamente em diversas áreas de minha vida.
Penso que, a cada dia, temos escolhas disponíveis que afetam como avaliamos nossa existência em termos de sucesso ou fracasso: avançar ou não em um projeto sonhado, arriscar-se em novas relações, cuidar-se melhor... E estar consciente disso é decisivo para caminharmos com maior confiança e maturidade.
Um seminário de 5 dias pode fortalecer sua clareza, sua visão do futuro, auxiliar na resolução de conflitos e inspirá-lo a viver com maior liberdade e efetividade. Ainda não conheci uma só pessoa que, tendo atravessado as águas desse rio, saísse do outro lado sem boas ferramentas.
É impressionante parar, hoje, para fazer uma auto avaliação e notar meu desenvolvimento como pessoa. O Insight me trouxe a consciência necessária para que eu tenha responsabilidade nas minhas escolhas a todo o tempo.
Simplesmente maravilhoso!!! sempre digo que existe o "eu" antes e depois do Insight. Já faz aproximadamente 15 anos que fiz meu Insight I e utilizo as ferramentas que encontrei todos os dias de minha vida, e considero o melhor presente que me proporcionei. Não virei santa, mas descobri onde encontro milagres!! Sou muito grata por ter tido esta oportunidade e meu desejo é que ele fosse inserido nas escolas como parte das disciplinas.
Insight is a GREAT Nonprofits organization! I was a client very well served, then had the opportunity to volunteer and be of service, and after that became a donor! I donated a seminar for each member of my family. This is an organization that allowed me to gain so many great experiences. Definitely, a G.R.E.A.T. (Grounding, Real, Elevated, Amazing, Trustworthy) Nonprofits Organization! Thanks!
Insight was an opportunity for me to pause, look within, and acknowledge the beauty, light and potential that exists within me and all those around me. It was a full and rich weekend of connecting, building trust in myself and the greater community, and finding commonality that it all comes back to opening your heart, trusting in yourself and loving the moment. I am still deeply and strongly connected to the Insight community and the friends I made through the experience, and am so grateful to have strengthened and shared our shining light together.
Insight is an incredible seminar. Improves your self-knowledge and changes your personal and profesional values in a way that you can experiment your life fully with really joy.
Insight resulto para mi una transformación maravillosa, que me permitió experimentar facetas de mi vida que no creía posibles, y disfrutar mucho mas plena y concientemente mi día a día. Sigue siendo para mi, la gran herramienta que me pemite elegir concientemente lo que quiero a cada instante, y desde mi corazón.
Insight has been the beginning of a remarkable journey of awakening to who I truly am. I found so much freedom through Insight and in being free I am learning what it means to be authentic and true. One of the immediate changes in my life following Insight was that my laugh grew richer and louder--I now give myself the freedom to be truly joyful and present. The beautiful thing about Insight is that the awareness does not end after graduation. With the tools provided to me during the seminar, I have found that my growth continues and my awareness is still unfolding.
Insight shows me how powerful our love is and how we can help people with this love. Insight allowed me to know more about myself and understantd my feelings of happiness, thankfullness and forgiveness. God bless you!
Ao caminhar hoje pela manhã, estava pensando em uma maneira de agradecer ao Insight Jundiaí, e aos facilitadores que passaram pelo meu despertar, o despertar de uma nova vida com muito mais consciência, estando muito mais presente comigo mesma, e agora me deparo com esta oportunidade. Hoje tenho ferramentas poderosas que me ajudam diariamente... e sempre tenho em mente que a escolha é todo minha em qualquer tempo e em qualquer lugar. Só tenho que ter gratidão a todos que me proporcionaram isso.
Insight was an experience that allowed me to know powerful tools to help in my daily life. I made the course in 2008 and some of really important changes in my life, I believe I started to deal with them with the help of insight.
With the Insight, I learned to have a vision of myself, fantastic tool. It provides an increase of happiness in the life of an individual.
I took an Insight seminar ten years ago and it changed my life. It changed the way I see the importance of taking care of me and the people who is around me. I kept going to seminars and it just got better and better. I lot of friends of mine tryed Insight and all of them said: "Thank you so much for showing me this".
He participado de diferentes Seminarios y Entrenamientos de Insight University. Destaco la excelencia de todas las actividades realizadas por esta institución, así como el servicio amoroso que brindan a miles de personas alrededor del mundo. Son altamente recomendables las actividades desarrolladas por Insight, ya que, más allá del contenido, se destacan por la manera de motivar a las personas para que muestren lo mejor de sí, que es en definitiva su esencia. Todo esto se logra porque los Facilitadores están altamente capacitados, lo que lleva a las personas a confiar plenamente en los procesos educativos que Insight pone a disposición de la comunidad con un gran respeto, amorosidad y compromiso, que hacen la diferencia a la hora de enseñar y aprender.
I had the opportunity to join the group on Insight 1 and 2. The content is very interesting and give us the chance to revisit among many things: who we are, how to deal with frustrations, suport and be supported and look back to yout life for your own evaluation. The environment is full of energy and the volunteers commitment is a key to make you feel embraced.
Venho participando da serie dos seminários Insight, tem cerca de 20 anos. Para mim são momentos dedicados auto-avaliação e de oportunidades de mudança, através da experiência Insight posso me experimentar e me ver sob outro angulo, com isto a cada participação se abre em mim a oportunidade de escolher o que melhor funciona para minha vida; posso afirmar por experiencia o quanto este seminário me apoiou e continua apoiando, pois continuo aplicando as chaves que aprendo e revejo. Quando me perguntam sobre os seminários Insight, tenho o habito de responder, super vale experimentar... Tenho certeza que todos que participam saem com ferramentas praticas e uteis para viver uma vida de muito maior qualidade, seja pessoal ou profissional...
Tomei Insight l em 1997. Meu maior logro esta baseado em que, ao despertar para um nível de consciência mais elevado e perceber a importância de assumir a responsabilidade das coisas que crio, provoco ou permito, seja em que area for, e não só isso, também adiquiri formas de como fazer diferente. E isso é incrível, porque posso corrigir o que não esta funcionando bem em qualquer area da minha vida. Com isso, tornei-me uma pessoa mais presente e mais consciente de valores para ter uma vida de saúde, mental, fisíca e emocional. Hoje, após 15 anos, o resultado dos ensinamentos desse seminário, que lógico, compartilhei, expandi, levei á muitas outras pessoas amadas e queridas, reflete-se evidentemente e especialmente, em minhas filhas, as quais pude apoiar ainda crianças ( 2 ano, 6 anos e 7 anos) nessa direção de maior consciencia de quem elas são e quais as responsabilidades com " O Todo" E hoje, o presente que recebo pela dedicação em cuidar de mim mesma para também cuidar das pessoas é saber que fiz um ótimo trabalho e sei disso olhando o reflexo em três grandes mulheres que tenho hoje comigo, nem tanto como filhas, mas agora como amigas, companheiras de serviço e seres de um compromisso consigo mesmo e de amor ao próximo, que me emociona profundamente e me traz uma gratidão que explode no peito. Sinto uma sensação de ter feito algo de bom para o mundo, pois acredito que seres humanos melhores em consciência, amor e serviço, produz um mundo melhor para todos.

I signed up for this program because I heard from a friend that it was a great program, and so I went. Friends and school mates went as well. I arrived at the begining of the program, and had absolutely no idea of what to expect. To be frank, the first day was overwhelming, in the sense that there was so much things being thrown at you. I felt like a deer in headlights. The second day, was even more unbearable. I got home late from the previous day, and could not sleep much because I had to wake up early for the second day of Insight. Later that day, things got much better. Before this program, I alreay had awareness; I kind of knew what was going on as far as my feelings go. However, Insight helped me develop those skills further, and introduce me to other life skills. I would say that I'm somewhat positive, and ambitious, though very insecure and simply hard on myself a lot of the time. This program has strengthen me, and made me a much more positve person. It help me find ways to clear off the insecurity, and other negative things in my life. Most importantly, Insight helped me step out of my comfort zone. I use to be very shy; the kind of person who was scared to meet new people. I just couldn't, I couldn't go up to someone I did not know and simply say hi. Thanks to Insight, I'm now comfortable saying hi to someone I don't know, and start a conversation, it's become natural to me. This program is really, an amazing program. Hands down, five stars. I met people who were not excited, nor happy to have been in the program on the first day, but by the last day, they absolutely loved it. All my friends that went had such an amazing time at Insight, they loved it. I loved it as well, it was the best 4 days of my life!
Insight is an amazing program that showed me both how to open my heart wide as well as how to function in this world while being in the loving. I highly recommend it.
Em 1998 tive a minha primeira apresentação do que vinha a ser os Seminários Insight. Foi uma revolução pessoal total. Em 2000 estava eu no Chile completando o nivel 4. Tudo que eu aprendi e vivi nos seminários utilizou diariamente e sei que as fichas continuarão a cair. Depois dele me "re"conheço muito melhor, mais centrada, com objetivos claros e convivo muito bem com todos os desafios. Tenho uma carreira profissional de sucesso e minha vida pessoal sob controle, do jeito que eu sempre quis. utilizo tudo para crescer e avançar. Tenho consciencia que tudo na vida eu Permito, Crio ou Provoco. Assim me tornei totalmente responsável pelas situações que vivo. Foi sem dúvida o melhor investimento em mim mesmo. Hoje, continuo indicado os Seminários, inclusive para o RH da Volkswagen do Brasil. Se conseguirmos, será uma revolução dentro dessa grande Empresa.
Foi uma experiencia enriquecedora a minha participação no Seminário Insight em São Paulo, em Agosto de 2012. Eu e minha esposa participamos e pudemos juntos buscar ferramentas que nos permitirão crescer pessoalmente e melhorar muito nossa comunicação em nossa casa.É de excelente ajuda o seminários e recomendo a todos que tiverem oportunidade que façam. Abraço. Ricardo de Jesus
I was fortunate enough to be registered for two Insight seminars in Denver Colorado in 2011 and enrolled for a third course in Corona California in 2012 and can say without a doubt, they have been the best personal investments (mental, spiritual, and physical) I have ever made in myself. The experience is unparallelled. Heart-centered education is the path to a more peaceful and tolerant plant. I would highly recommend Insight to anyone that is interested in living a meaningful, authentic, and powerful life.
Insight seminars was the catalyst for the most transformational process that ever occurred to me. I took this seminar as a teenager in the 90's and to this day it is still a very important part of my life and I am very proud to be part of the organization. Insight is a serious entity, driven to support people to reaching and realizing their potential to the fullest.
Seminários Insight, para mim é um trabalho de desenvolvimento humano, mais humano impossível, trabalha a conscientização de nossas escolhas, com muita amorosidade pessoal, aprendi a me amar e respeitar o meu limite e acreditar mais em minha pessoa. Tomei conscientização de como dar e receber feedback é muito importante para ambas partes que se encontra em um processo. Resumo sempre que posso busco refazer o seminário, porque sempre tem algo a descobrir para eu tomar mais consciência.
Conheci Insight em 2001, mas somente tomei o primeiro seminario depois de 2 anos porque "achava" que se tratava de mais um seminário de auto-desenvolvimento. Qual nao foi minha surpresa, quando resolvi participar e fui percebendo que Insight me oferecia a oportunidade de observar jogos que eu fazia na minha vida, medos que me bloqueavam e especialmente como criava expectativas em relação a como as situações e pessoas deveriam ser. A grande chave do Seminário eh que nao somente vi esses fatos como pude redescobrir como me conectar de maneira mais positiva e desde meu coração. Posso dizer que os desafios do dia seguem, mas as ferramentas a mim entregues e o caminho já trilhado de reconexao, me permitiram e me permitem viver uma vida com melhor comunicação, honestidade e consciência.
I have taken three times Insight seminars and volunteered several times as well. It is life-changing to me and I continue learning every minute in Insight. My life has expanded on a level of acceptance and gratitude and I'm celebrating loving relationships. Through Insight I keep discovering qualities that motivate my professional growth in life.
I have taken two times a variety of Insight I in spain and after i have decided to take aII and a few weeks ago I have done Insight I as a trie, taking in mind that Insight and the two seminars that i have receive, "regalodecorazon" free. That is the beginning of my life enjoying from the heart and feeling that nothing is impossible, and having a special strench in my mind that i can do anything i decided to do noo only planning, doing is the best of course
o Insight pra mim foi um marco , pois aprendi e entendi coisas ao meu respeito fundamentais.o dia a dia nao é facil, o insight nos da ferramentas para lidar melhor com isso, com vc mesmo, com a vida, com as pessoas, enfim... é uma experiencia unica. fiz 1 e o 2 e espero logo poder estar no 3. o 4 ainda distante, mas quem sabe um dia... aconselho, recomendo , FAÇAM INSIGHT! Aprendizado em todos os sentidos. vale a pena experimentar. Priscila Antunes Peixoto.
Insight simply changed my life. Through my work with Insight, I was able to break down walls of anger and sadness that had taken decades to build. The workshops assisted me in challenging long-held assumptions, and helped me to see the beauty of my life and all those with whom I share it. Insight Seminars were the deepest, most enriching and uplifting experiences I have had in my life, and I recommend them to everyone I know (and even those I don't). If you want to know yourself- REALLY know yourself, do yourself a favor and make Insight a part of your life.
Fiz o Insight há uns 4 anos. Foi incrível. muitas fichas caem durante e depois do treinamento. Difícil escrever em poucas palavras. Acho que o mais interessante foi perceber o enorme potencial do amor, mas que nós sufocamos com comportamentos de proteção como medos, ressentimentos, raiva e etc. Como dizia a Paula, (que saudade), são as cascas que deixamos formar em volta do coração. O treinamento é o lugar para acessarmos novamente estes sentimentos e emoções e mudar alguns comportamentos.
Participe en un seminario Insight por primera vez en 1997.Llegue buscando herramientas ,para enfrentar los desafios en mi vida.Alli encontre como recuperar mi poder personal ,mi autoestima y por primera vez conoci la Paz.Esto ha cambiado mi vida para siempre,como resultado hoy soy una persona Agradecida y Feliz .
Fui introducido al grupo insight en espanol en el anio de 2010 y tome el uno ese anio , despues auxilie en el grupo para presentarlo a la comunidad hispana, fue una experiencia definitivamente especial y despues tome el dos , y pienso en algun momento ,cuando llegue, tomar el 3 . Mi transformacion espiritual se acelero fue algo especial y estara siempre conmigo. Lleve a mi hijo al de teen y aprendio. Gracias a todos los participantes y voluntarios.
Mi primer curso lo tomé en 2007, a partir de ahí mi vida es más plena. .... principalmente me dí cuenta de que lo que ya me gustaba de mí se puede potenciar más cada vez desarrollándome y superándome cada día. ..... Ya tomé los 4 cursos de Insight y podría escribir todo un tratado sobre las experiencias tan maravillosas y las herramientas tan valiosas que me ha brindado. Aunado a esto, el hacer asistencias voluntarias ha sido de lo más gratificante y enriquecedor.
Tuve la oportunidad maravillosa de participar en estos seminarios que cambiaron mi vida para siempre. aprendí acerca del poder de mi corazón y de la capacidad que tengo para hacer una diferencia en el mundo. Considero que todas las personas deben tener la oportunidad de participar en un taller ofrecido por esta organización. Nos lo merecemos. Gracias Insight por existir y por ser un punto de referencia para muchos en el planeta.
MInha vida mudou depois de conhecer os Seminários Insight. Fiz até o III e não vejo a hora de fazer o IV. Insight me ensinou a perdoar, amar, valorizar não aos outros, mas a mim e ao próximo. É muito mais que um seminário ou uma ferramenta: É um estilo de vida!
I'm a participant, a volunteer, a donor, and a supporter in many ways. Ever since taking my first seminar in 1996, I've continued to return to continue learning, looking inside myself, and contributing to others doing the same. Both participating with and volunteering for Insight has altered the course of my life in so many positive ways. I have greater self-confidence. I am more comfortable in my own skin. I relate to people with an open and loving heart. I deeply value my experience with this organization.
Soy de esa generación de mujeres mayores de 60 años que vivimos la “liberación femenina”, liberación que en algunos aspectos fue muy beneficiosa pero que por otro lado nos complicó la vida ya que debimos enfrentar muchísimas obligaciones que antes no teníamos. Por esta razón mi vida no era fácil, estaba separada y tenía tres hijos adolescentes. Un buen día mi hijo José me contó que iba a tomar un seminario. Lo hizo y a partir de ese momento tuve un hijo nuevo, maravilloso, de buen humor, feliz, comprometido y mucho más. En vista de esto yo decidí tomarlo también y mi vida dio un vuelco total, podría decir tantas cosas, pero creo que lo que resume todo es que descubrí el poder de llevar mi vida donde yo quiero y el resultado de ello es que se convirtió en una vida FELIZ. No voy a decir que se terminaron todos los problemas, estamos en este mundo que todos sabemos como es, pero mi actitud frente a ellos ahora es positiva y tengo las herramientas precisas para solucionarlos, con rapidez y efectividad. De corazón le recomiendo el Insight a todo el mundo, para mí es lo mejor que me ha pasado.

Tomé mi primer Insight por insistencia de mi hermana pero realmente llegué molesta porque no supe ya decirle NO... Y ahora doy gracias a Dios pues me di cuenta que había temas en mi cabeza y en mi corazón que había guardado sin resolver y las había olvidado, y olvidar no significa arreglar... así que de la mano del facilitador, me fui descubriendo poco a poco y aprendí el valor de perdonarme... descubrí que guardaba rencores hasta inconscientemente y que ya estaba acostumbrada, y pude trabajar en la comprensión y aceptación... vi claramente mi responsabilidad en lugar de mirarme como víctima! Como papá acabada de morir, también trabajé mucho con eso y con mi niñez... aprendí a valorarme, a quererme, el valor de demostrarme amor con cuidados y siendo honesta y clara... y descubrí cuánto podemos querernos las personas, a pesar de estar mirando nuestros errores y defectos... sucedió hace 8 años y sigo en contacto con varios de los compañeros... También tomé Insight II y ese seminario me cambió la vida... me regaló herramientas para apoyarme, me amé tanto y más que en Insight I... me atreví a ser diferente y eso estuvo bien!!! Insight III fue un regalo para mi corazón! Joe Hubbard me apoyo a enfrentarme a mi susto pues en el hospital me dijeron que me quedaban pocos meses de vida y yo no quería dejar a mis hijos con su papá pues es bipolar y no quiere tomar medicamento ni seminarios... pero aquí estoy, presentándome como asistente. He tenido el honor de ser asistente en Insight niños, pre-adolescentes, adolescentes, Insight I, II y III y en cada uno voy viendo reflejada mi vida y mi persona de una u otra forma... son la oportunidad de aprender de mi misma, de ser voluntaria y ofrecer mi tiempo y mi cariño como servicio, y a cambio recibo toneladas de amor de las personas que conozco!!! Wow!!! Es mucho más de lo que yo esperaba de la vida!!! Insight es una forma de vida!!! Doy gracias a Dios por cada facilitador: Joe, Germán, Paula, Alicia, Jacques, Basilio, John Marín, Peter, Pablo, todos son maravillosos!!! Toda mi gratitud a ustedes y mi corazón también, que gracias a Insight, se ha recuperado milagrosamente! Y aquí sigo con vida y feliz!!! Gracias... gracias
Life changing organization founded in the respect, compassion, and experience of our center (hearth).Change the life of my family to betters way of living. Free of dogmas or ideologies.
Insight Seminars was one of the most extraordinary experiences I ever lived. Translating: there I had the opportunity to discover fields of my life, where I wasted energy, likewise fights, wrong opinions, revenge, and many other negative emotions, about I was not aware of the negative effects that had in my lifes. I also discovered the effect of clear intentions, so that i could better focus my energy. In a nutshell, I clear discovered de good effects of having more awareness of what to do, and what not to do. That´s why it is an extraordinary experience.... Hope you can also take part of that. Cheers, Fernando!
Insight truly enabled me to transform my life on all levels. I use the tools I have received through the various seminars everyday to assist me in living a more balanced and fulfilling life experienced through my loving and peace. I highly recommend giving this gift to yourself!
My experience with Insight is indescribable, I have taken my first course in 2009, was absolutly amazing... it have changed my life and it do still. Today I can recognize me how a powerful person. I´m so grateful for Insight
I've taken the first and second Insight training seminars and have received so much value from these trainings. I feel that many areas of my life have been transformed through my total participation. These trainings have prepared me for handling greater challenges in my life that came after completing them.
Going through Insight III was an amazing experience that changed my life at the time, but also changed my perspective on going through life from that point on. The Insight seminars and phenomenal facilitators gave me a tool set that I still use on a daily basis. They are hard to describe and just need to be experienced by all so the world can be a more loving place.
It's very nice; one of the best experience i'd got in my life. Insight mudou minha vida. Jogou luz em questões complicadas e que eu achava difíceis de encarar. Mudou minha relação comigo mesmo, com minha família, amigos e trabalho. Hoje sou muito mais pleno, feliz e autêntico, vivendo minha vida com abundância e gratidão.
Insight changed my life. I have taken Insight trainings multiple times, including a 5-week Insight IV. Insight gave me the tools to bring balance, peace, love, and acceptance into my life.
I took my first Insight Seminar in April, 1988. It was the most transformational and powerful experience of my life. It opened my heart and changed the trajectory of my life. I have been a volunteer throughout the years since. I continue to see it as some of the most powerful work on the planet.
Insight is one of those experiences in life you can always look back on and feel blessed to have been a part of. It helps you gain courage and hope for yourself and people as a whole. Aside from offering overlooked fundamentals for your soul and mind, Insight offers a chance to make terrific new friendships, and it shows you how to strengthen old ones. Sign up!
Insight changed my life in amazingly positive ways - I am soooooo grateful!! More joy, more love, more Spirit, more community, more expansiveness and freedom... I volunteer regularly since I got involved 12 years ago and I recommend it highly to all my friends. Thank you Insight for blessing my life!!
This organization is amazing! they really helped me look beyond my normal ways of thinking so what it would really take to get the change I was looking for in my life. I would highly suggest any class or workshop that they offer to even my closest friends!
I was invited to take the first seminar for a few months and I declined as I had a difficult time sittting down for a long day in a room full of people, but I finally decided to participate and after the first seminar I totally became more in touch with my loving, before I was totally "numbed" to the suffering of others; after the second seminar I discover the answers to some of my life questions as a child, like Who am I? What do I do here on this planet? and others...I am a different person today after taking all four seminars. I am very grateful and would like to ask anyone to take these seminars, as they are life-changing. I now have alot of tools to live a happy life, in harmony with the world, speaking from my heart and touching others to uplift them...Thank you Insight Seminars from the bottom of my heart.
I was very reluctant to attend my first Insight Seminar, but I found something profoundly different there, which reawakened my integrity and self-respect. It began a process that re-oriented my life around loving and has brought me through the years to an empowered and joyful life. In making its unique ability to enhance human potential in a higher level education format, Insight University is providing a rich resource for those who are dedicated to making a significant difference.
Every time I participate or volunteer I learn something new about myself. I participated in a children's seminar over 10 years ago and have participated and volunteered in the teen programs in my hometown. Insight has given me tools that i couldn't have obtained anywhere else. Self-esteem and trusting my inner voice is the most important tools i have gotten from the seminars.
I have been involved with Insight Seminars for over 9 years. I was so grateful for the transformation I experienced from participating in their programs, that I have been a volunteer for over five years. Insight offers heart-centered tools for creating awareness and more of what you want from life. This is a unique program devoted to serving both individuals and businesses in an authentic and professional way.
Insight teaches me something new everytime I participate or volunteer. It is a wonderful experience which is very different for everyone but has one thing in common: love. I got in touch with immense love for myself and others through Insight. It is this love that pulls me back to be apart of Insight over and over again. The life long friends I have made from Insight are some of the most beautiful supportive people I know. Insight workshops are something everyone can learn and grow from.
Insight was one of those huge ah ha's in my life. What I learned helped me to go on and create incredible success in my life!
I have experienced Insight Seminars in all its flavours, from INS 1 to INS IV, and this University seems to be the embodyment of those seminars in a more formal and available way. Hats off to the people doing this as the programs ARE life changing.
I am not only a professional who has worked in psychology and mental health, as an occupational therapist, as well as with those with many physical disabilities, but I also have been an adult participant as well as a volunteer for Teen and Adult Trainings. Insight is a stellar university and organization that has a way of teaching that far exceeds many other comparable institutions. They give a person an experience and the information to become a greater person, a stronger leader and a person who will contribute to society in a positive expanded way using their full potential. Their teen programs, are gratefully, extremely successful in changing the course and guiding the course of life for kids from blame to responsibility, from ineffective to empowered. I fully recommend Insight University and all the programs they offer.
I have been involved with the Insight programs for over 20 years. I have not seen anything else like this around. Not only do we get the opportunity to open our hearts and really get to know who we are as Souls on this planet having a "human experience", we get to make life-long friends and have so much fun. The programs are professional, and heart-centered. What a unique and blessed gift that Insight has given to millions of people around the globe.
I was a volunteer with the Insight programs for both adults and teens for almost 10 years! Insight University is an incredible organization whose mission is to uplift the planet, one person at a time through awakening hearts and reminding us how to live with joy, grace, kindness, enthusiasm and love. They operate with a high degree of integrity and care about participant often raising scholarship money for those in financial need. I have seen lives changed miraculously through this deep and sacred work of the heart. It was also incredibly healing and hope-enhancing to be in the presence of such greatness being called forward in humanity. Plus, it's a fun place to spend some time and get uplifted in the process.
I have attended Insight 1, 2 and recently 3. All three trainings have been geared toward my up liftment in my life and knowing how to keep myself centered and grounded. I have been amazed at every turn I have taken within insight to the progress in which my life has followed. It is a great seminar on all levels. My daughter has done all 3 of the insight trainings, some twice and some she has assisted in. She will be returning this coming summer to engage in The Youth Leadershp Program. It has been absolutely instrumental in changing the outcome of my daughters life as well as my own. Thank you insight from the bottom of my heart...Beverlee
This is an outstanding program - particularly the teen insight seminars. The facilitators and the curriculum encourage honest and authentic learning, problem solving, conflict resolution and self expression with compassion. It is a truly unique experience that leaves no participant untouched emotionally, and guarantees upliftment and bonding. Every parent should wish this experience for their child. Sincerely, Paula Stoeke
I came across Insight back in 1998, and I can say hands down that my life has never been the same since! The practical skills and "insights" (pardon the pun) I learned in effectively managing and navigating through the challenges in my life has been, and continues to be of utmost value to me. Insight's experiential learning model, coupled with very articulate, skillful and caring Facilitators was most gratifying intellectually, emotionally, and, dare I say - spiritually. I have continued to stay involved with their many programs as both a participant and a volunteer as time allows as I thoroughly enjoy reconnecting with others who have participated; furthermore, have found the learning simply does not end, only deepens. With this said, if learning to be happier, wiser, and to love & take care of myself and others more effectively is considered a cult, well then I 'drank the kool-aid' and have no regrets! :)
Having worked for several non-profit groups in the past, I can attest that Insight has the highest standards. I have been involved with the Insight organization as a volunteer since 1989. I have found the Insight experience to be profoundly life changing, and have led to greater experiences of joy, peace, success, contentment, and happiness in all areas of my life. Give yourself the gift of Insight!
I have been involved with Insight Seminars since it began in 1978!! I have audited and assisted every year since and have found magic happening in my life and all around me from my involvement. My health has improved considerably thru my participation. And, my abundance and wealth have increased tremendously because of my participation. Insight to me, is THE ABSOLUTE BEST!!!!!! I'd be happy to share my experience with anyone who is interested!!!!
Insight provided the tools for me to have greater clarity, awareness, appreciation, gratitude, and joy for me, my life and those around me. I would highly recommend it to anyone.
"Insight University" is the faux-secular recruitment facade of the "Movement of Spiritual Inner Awareness" cult that has been running since the 1970s. The group is actively harmful, with actions ranging from vandalism and death threats against those who try to leave the cult to its leader's penchant for coerced sex with young boys. I would strongly encourage thorough and cautious research into this group and its founder before any involvement with them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movement_of_Spiritual_Inner_Awareness http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John-Roger#Accusations_of_cultism.2C_criminal_conduct_and_abuse http://www.people.com/people/archive/article/0,,20100035,00.html
The tools given and the awarenesses had through the processes at Insight are ones that have been foundational for my joy, abundance and successes. And they are constantly deepening and expanding. It has assisted me in knowing myself as the magnificent person I am, far beyond what I thought possible. Every time I get involved with Insight I learn something new which substantially impacts the progression of my life. I have had the joy of witnessing, over and over again, others having the same, individual experience of the personal process of releasing what isn't working and grounding themselves in their own strengths, truths and heart. My gratitude for Insight is unspeakable because the positive impact of the experience of true loving, after 25+ years, is unending.
I cannot say enough about Insight University. I've been involved with the organization for over 20 years and my experiences just keep getting better and better. Initially as a client I received so much value from the seminars I did. Numerous members of my family have participated as well and it has transformed our relationships. It is such an integral part of the person I am today. I am more confident, successfuly, joyful, but most importantly, I have an awareness of who I really am and that knowing is unshakeable in the face of any setbacks I may encounter.
Insight changed my life. After the first training when I returned home, my little boy said: "I don't know what you did, but I like it." I found that I became more patient and less reactive. My voice softened and I felt more at peace.
I became aware of the Insight seminars a number of years ago and participated in a series of the programs. I found them to be of significant value in helping me refine the way in which I presented myself in the world. The skill set I gained from the programs was practical inasmuch as it provided me with the means of achieving several goals I had set for myself. After having a series of jobs, I decided that I would like to try my hand at being the boss. For the last 20 years I have run a successful business that has not only provided the material things of a comfortable lifestyle, but has afforded me the flexibility and freedom to explore interests outside of my business. I have been married to a wonderful woman for the past 30 years and I attribute at least part of our successful relationship to concepts and understanding gained through Insight.
I have taken all the insight trainings available over the past 12 years and each one has assisted me in creating a better life. Living with more heart, joy, passion, and confidence in myself and others. Insight University is an incredible gateway through the self and out into infinite possibilities.
The Insight Training changed my life for the better, and thats an understatement. I knew I was a loving human being but didnt know much about being loving or integrity or personal relationships. I am good at business, so I applied their information to my CPA practice and in time I had the largest practice in my area. So I applied them to my life...I am so very grateful...words cannot express my gratitude for what I have learned and how I have grown. I now know about integrity and loving. I'm still working on personal relationships but am making great strides in creating a beautiful and wonderous life for me, my family and all those I come into contact with.
Insight University has changed my life, just as Insight Seminars changed my relationship and gave me powerful tools for living. Insight University gives me hope for the world- that education can be sane and heart-directed, leadership can be full of integrity and compassion while being impactful and that colleagues can be supportive and loving. Insight University is a role model for great education and leadership.
I have taken several seminars from Insight over the years and found them to be the basis for life changing decisions on my part. In the seminars I learned to open my heart to more of life and all it offers, and I have recommended it highly to many others. This is a seminar which can be of enormous benefit for anyone who wants more out of life.
I have been involved with Insight since the age of 6, and I am so grateful for the experiences that involvement has afforded me. Call it technology, psychology, or just plain good advice; Insight has provided me with the tools to create the life I want. Not only does it provide these tools, but teaches participants how to find these tools within themselves. I love the work I've done in Insight, and I make sure to re-enroll in one of their seminars (either as a participant or as a volunteer) every year or two.
Insight was life transforming for me. There are many self help books that are out there and many are very inspiring, but taking action is the key. When you take an Insight seminar, then you "live" their teachings during the seminar. Reading and doing are two completely different things. If you go into an Insight seminar with an open mind and with a willingness to transform, then you will "experience" Insight's philosophy of life. Insight baby steps you through how to create happiness as a state of mind instead of a life with happy moments. Another great part about Insight seminars is that their leaders use the Insight Philosophy to teach the class. In some other personal growth seminar companies, mental gymnastics are used to get you to the same goal. That can make getting to the goal a little tougher. Insight uses compassion to show you how to live compassionately.
Insight University has been a way for me to think about service in the world that includes myself and my authentic worth. The program fully supports students to be their whole self and to look deeply at the world's issues and be present with the personal relevance of those issues. IU has been a major support for me to trust myself, my own inner voice, and validate the power of being a loving presence in everything I do. It truly has been an investigation into the mysteries of the universe, and the practical applications of love and service. IU creates a curriculum that helps students remember who they truly are and supports us in bringing that forward into the world and work towards positive radical change.
The training was life changing, and provided me with necessary tools to modify my life path when and if I chose to. Unlike many other trainings out there, no one told me that I needed to follow them or become their groupie in order to succeed. I was given a set of tools for living, and the choice to use them or not. I am forever in their corner.
Several years ago one of my teen aged sons introducted us to Insight. A friend encouraged him to do Teen Insight I. We we so impressed that I did Insight I and II and my wife did Insight I. Meanwhile my son did Teen Insight II and he and I together did Insight III. The Insight seminars held me both personnally and professionally. The transformations were powerful enough that several of my professional coworkers also took Insight I
The training at Insight seminars provided me with a foundation for living my life. I have attended multiple seminars and experienced tremendous growth in my life as a result. I frequently refer family, friends, and patients to these life-changing seminars. Thank you!
25 years ago I had the opportunity to participate in an Insight training in Chile. It was a life changing experience. I found the information and motivation to move myself to create more abundance, enthusiasm, joy an optimism in my life. I've been supporting insight since those days and I have seen thousands of people benefit from this unique experience.
I came into Teen Insight as a skeptic, and finished as a supporter. The program changed my life for the better within five days! I came out of the experience with a stronger positive outlook on life, knowing what I wanted to do to make a difference in the world. I would recommend Teen Insight to anyone, as well as the adult Insight. Without Insight University, the world would be a much darker place. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to let them into my life, and I will continue to do so happily!
Teen Insight is a life-changing program that supports teens to awaken to their strengths , gifts, and leadership - in every area of life. This program is essentially transformative. It is an excellent non-profit that really helps teens awaken to their best selves, believe in themselves and take responsibility for their thoughts,words and actions. Empowers and full of dreams these young people will transform our world.
Classical capitalism is cold at its core. The mental model that has ruled management is that reason is superior to wisdom and; therefore, emotions, feelings and intuition are rarely available. We now see how companies are riding through the greatest outbreak of confusion since the inception of classical capitalism. Do we need to upgrade capitalism and redesign the way we create prosperity?. Insight University Doctoral Programme in Transformational Leadership, integrates the heart with the mind to improve the effectiveness of leadership in the revolution we need. Its study framework provides the psychological safety I needed to transform myself. It masterfully combines the academic rigor with the demands of wisdom. A powerful and transformational experience necessary to become part of the solution.
I first began with Insight in 1978, and I have participated in their programs as both a student and a volunteer. The skills I learned have taken me deeper into my heart, and made my life richer. They offer short-term classes as well as longer programs in retreat, and in all of my experiences with Insight, I have been offered the opportunity to transform myself, to know and see my life more clearly. The work of Insight has made my life better, as well as that of my family and a great many of my friends.
I have been involved with Insight since 1978 To me is the most transforming educational program I know. Has given me very important, practical and useful tools to handled any area in my personal and professional life. The level of integrity, professionalism and service of the people involved are of the highest degree. I highly recommend "Insight University" to anyone.
I took Insight when I was 23 years old. Life changing! Now, after 25 years, Insight and its teaching are part of my daily life. I'm the one en charge of my life and because I have an amazing tool-box provided by Insight so many years ago. In 2012 I my husband past away. I wouldn't have been able to walk through the grief without Insight's tools. I'm Grateful for having made the choice to spend a week in a seminar room back then, to learn so much about myself. I live my life based on the basic ground rules that Insight taught me: To Take Care of Myself so that I can help take care of others; To not hurt myself and to not hurt others; and To use everything for my upliftment, growth and learning. Because of that, and me practicing and using the tools, I can say that I'm happy, I'm Grateful for my life, and I'm HONORED to be part of this organization. And to finish, I can honestly share that I live my life every day to the fullest, and One day at a time. I'm Blessed!!! Thank You INSIGHT and THANK YOU John-Roger for creating this amazing way for us to be who we really are. God Bless You!
My first experience with Insight was in 1985 and I have been engaged and involved with the work ever since - in a variety of capacities including student, volunteer, donor and advisor. The work guided me in transforming my life beyond what I could imagine, and I have personally witnessed the education, connection and growth of literally thousands of others around the world. Truly, my participation with this organization has been one of my greatest joys in life. One of the phrases sometimes used to describe Insight is, "Awareness at its finest moment." Now I would like you, and the world, to become aware of Insight University and all its programs and offerings. I invite you to participate!
All I can say is, Insight Seminars Changed my life in a positive way, I learn how powerful I am, now I now how to work with my Intention, they show me in 5 days how I can create everything I want from nothing, I can say a thousand beautiful things about Insight Seminars but all I'm going to say is that I am grateful with myself for taking the chance, and I am grateful with God for giving me the chance to be part of this great family.
Insight University has given me the set of instructions I wasn't born with, to live my life more abundantly, more truthfully and more effectivly. Because of my experience with this organization, I am a better husband, a better parent and a more authentic writer. I reccommend their program wholeheartedly.
Insight University's Programs make a continuing contribution to the education, enlightenment, and overall growth to all fortunate enough to have experienced there numerous seminars and degree offerings; the net result: the world is surely a better place!
I can honestly say that the programs of Insight University have positively impacted my life in unique and substantial ways. They have supported the development and integration of such qualities as integrity, accountability and self-confidence, and amplified my appreciation for and participation in heartfelt service. Though I was aware of these characteristics before participating in Insight's programs, what I discovered in them was practical ways to implement them and become more centered in them.
Previous Stories
I was attracted to the work of Insight University because of experiences I had had with their Continuing Education Division - Insight Seminars. The work I did there and the resources for living I gained have served me consistently through my life, providing greater enrichment and fulfillment and assisting me in making a positive impact through my efforts. I recently attended the graduation of an Insight Teen seminar and was just astounded at what I saw in those kids, from diverse social, ethnic and racial backgrounds. The words I kept hearing was "we are family." To see the rich kids from LA's Westside and what appeared to be gang bangers from South Central embrace the commonality of the human spirit was awe inspiring. Now I am also starting to hear about the work of the Degree Granting Division, creating transformational leaders through the experience of transformation. Thanks to the work of Insight University, I find it easier to think there is hope for our country and our planet.
Review from Guidestar
Insight University has been very beneficial to my growth as a person. It has tought me tools to more effectively live my life. I have experienced profound healing and awareness through the workshops they offer. Some of my deepest connections with myself and others have occurred as a result of my participation in their events.
I first became involved with Insight programs in 1980 as a seminar participant and have volunteered since the 80's in various roles within the organization. I have served as a facilitator of seminars around the world, designed and delivered programs and workshops, served as President and now serve as Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the University. My life has been vastly improved, both personally and professionally, through experiencing the programs offered by the organization. As for my educational experiences, I found the learnings in the programs offered by the University more valuable in my life than that which I received while earning my JD Degree in law school.
I've been a volunteer for many years, because I have found such value in the Insight educational model.
I am a student in the first doctoral class and I can honestly say that the work is transforming my worldview and understanding of leadership in the twenty-first century. Working with other students who are passionate scholars, developing projects for service in the world, and learning to live from a deeply heartfelt space has been a powerful experience for me. I love the subjects as they are taught using a co-learner, transformational approach to curriculum. The faculty are patient, compassionate, expert, and funny. I am having such a great time as a student.
I donate to Insight University programs because their work has made a profound difference in my life. Their seminars are engaging, professional, and can be life-changing for people of all ages and backgrounds. Their work has universal appeal for people who want to live a more heart-centered life. I trust that my donations to this organization are being directed in the best way, where it can serve the greatest need.
As an urban educator, I spent years reading about, experimenting with, and implementing ways to be more effective in fulfilling my teaching mission. When in 1985 I was introduced to Insight Seminars—to its sanity, optimism, breadth, and efficacy—I thought to myself, if we could get every teacher in the country (or even a small fraction of them) to take this program, we’d revolutionize public education. We teachers would have new tools to aid in communicating with, motivating, assisting, and inspiring students. And schools could become places with more happiness, more energy, more beauty, more fun, more learning.
Now that Insight University is founded, I thrill at the possibility of this graduate program producing truly transformational leaders—for schools, for non-profits, for any institution or business. There’s probably nothing more important to our world right now than wise leadership, and I know of no better foundation for that than the one on which Insight University rests.

I've been involved with Insight since 1978. I've served as a volunteer, officer and board member. I currently serve on the Board of Trustees and as the President. Insight delivers education of the heart. That education has served over 1,000,000 people worldwide and has had a major impact on the lives of participants and their families, including mine.
Review from Guidestar
Insight Seminars has transformed the lives of my entire family – me, my husband, our son, our parents, my brother. I consider one of the greatest gifts I ever gave my brother was the gift of participating in an Insight I Seminar. To have him thank me for the gift of Insight and tell me that through his participating in the seminar he learned he was a good person, worthy of loving and being loved and worthy of serving others still stands out as one of the greatest gifts I ever received. I now serve on the Insight University Board of Trustees and as Insight University’s Executive Vice President. The Insight Seminars have now been offered to over one million people worldwide ages 6-96 in over 34 countries, on 6 continents and in 14 languages. I am delighted with our newest program Youth Transformational Leadership, which is a collaboration with EduCare Foundation through which we will be connecting youth worldwide to lead and serve through the heart.
Review from Guidestar
Insight Seminars is one of the best things I have ever done for myself. The things I learned at Insight significantly contributed to my self-awareness, self-knowledge, and self-confidence. This transformed my inner environment to one of greater compassion, love, and acceptance and manifested in the outer world as greater abundance and freedom. In addition, the work I did in Insight unlocked my personal potential so that I am of greater service to myself, which also translates to being more effective in the work I do in the world.

"Insight Seminars have given us an enormous contribution in building the team spirit within our organization. Surprisingly, a didactic and simple system, can transform a group of individuals on one team, giving them the tools necessary to excel and deliver their best time to meet the challenges of day-to-day .”

I've just completed Insight I - IV that is provided through the Continuing Education Department of Insight University. I've done a lot of workshops and Insight has had a more profound effect on my life than any other training I have been through. I am much more focused and have a clear direction and intention for how I choose to live my life and where I see myself in 1, 5, and 10 years from now. I an intent on enrolling in the doctorate program in the fall of 2013 and have therefore decided to finish my masters. Thanks Insight.
Review from Guidestar
I was introduced to Insight about 30 years ago and it has been an integral part of my life ever since. I have been involved in other programs that focus on personal growth but Insight University is different. It is the only organization I experienced where I have been given practical tools that I can apply to my improve both my personal and professional life every day. The continued education I experience through Insight has changed my life. I have learned to embrace my qualities, challenge myself to reach different goals, love myself and others unconditionally, and step outside my comfort zone get more of what I want out of my life. As the parent of 3 teenagers, I don't know what I would have done without the tools I learned through Insight. It has made me a better wife, parent, professional and overall person and I am grateful for all it has to offer and continues to offer!
Review from Guidestar
I was originally introduced to Insight University through the Continuing Education Division's Insight Seminars. It was truly the most important gift I have given myself and the transformation I experienced in my life was very tangible and real. It was not merely a shift in how I felt; rather, Insight Seminars provided me with powerful tools to dramatically transform my life. Moreover, I not only gained a greater understanding of my own value, wisdom, and strength, I learned to see that beauty in others. By the end of the seminar, every participant, regardless whom they were coming into the seminar, were like family. We all left with a profound clarity. The question was no longer whether I was worthy or able to achieve what I want in my life; rather, it was determining what I want more of in my life because I knew I could create it.

Thank you for your review. As you have not identified yourself, I will need to respond to you as an unknown, though you refer to yourself as "An Escapee." You apparently have Insight University confused with the Movement of Spiritual Inner Awareness as that seems to be what you talk about in your review. You haven't written a review on Insight University, so I can only assume that you are not a current student. Insight University offers an Ed.D. in Transformational Leadership. All of the faculty have earned doctorates from accredited schools as required by the State of New Mexico. In addition we have a continuing education division that offers programs serving people throughout the world. Over the last 30+ years over 1,000,000 people have participated in those programs. In reading some of the reviews posted on this site, they seem to have had a very different experience than what you describe above. I don't keep track of the faculty's religious or spiritual focus, so you would have to ask each faculty member what their affiliation is. Further there is no requirement that any student be affiliated with a particular religious or spiritual organization. In fact there is no requirement that they have any religious or spiritual focus. Again, we don't keep track of that information, so you would have to ask each of our students individually. I wish you the best as you sort through whatever long term hurt that you seem to be harboring toward the Movement of Spiritual Inner Awareness. In Loving Service Gregory Stebbins, Ed.D.
