My Nonprofit Reviews

I just returned from the graduate program, Wide Awake. I continue to return because taking courses at The Option Institute and Fellowship is a little like taking music lessons. You can learn the basics in one lesson but if you want to perfect your art you go back as often as you can! I have benefited greatly from these classes. In fact if I set out to do anything - I know I will achieve it because I can be persistent and never give up, no need to get frustrated with my progress because I've learned how to stay centered and focused. I love the teachers, my fellow students and everything I've learned! And the food is outstanding! I'm signed up for two more courses this year!

I have been attending programs at the Option Institute since 1994. You may ask yourself, why if something works do you NEED to go back again and again! I don't NEED to go back I go back to gain more insight, to become a better person. The graduate level course, Wide Awake, is such an amazing course. You are with other participants that have also invested a significant amount of time learning to a be bigger and better version of themselves. You are challenged and loved every day by so many. We talk about the language we use and how we show up in our lives! These people are friends that know every part of me and I know I never have to shy away! It's a little like playing a musical instrument, you can learn the basics in one lesson but if you want to become amazing you go back again and again for lessons - you go home and practice and come back again for another lesson! You never cease learning! It's the best!

A place like no other! I was so excited to find this place when I was searching for someone to teach me "how" to think positively. I had read so many self-help books that basically all said the same thing. "You will profit greatly by thinking positively." Problem was I wasn't thinking positively and had no idea what to do. The Option Institute taught me how! Sure I can still think negatively anytime I want but when I am ready to feel better I can use the Option Process Dialogue and I KNOW I will find out why I'm feeling so bad and change it when I am ready. This process has enhanced my life and my relationships. So, so glad I found this place!
