What grievers say about Michele

So appreciative of Michele's professionalism, compassion, guidance, insights and knowledge.

Michelle was amazing

Michele was outstanding. Each layer she added and skill she displayed impressed me with her depth of knowledge.... and this additional self-awareness has already changed my life and continued application of the method will undoubtedly provide repeating benefit with all of the other relationships where I have unfinished business.

With my facilitator I feel I have been moving forward to a more positive place. It is still a work in progress and I have a much better understanding of my emotional situation.

I have had trauma and grief related symptoms go away a few weeks ago, and have noticed that my physical manifestations of grief have been disappearing.

This program has brought much more awareness to how the losses in my life have been effecting my life and relationships. I feel the awareness has helped me not have a barrier to getting closer to those I love in my life. I also feel less afraid and much more peaceful.

I was surprised by how little I had thought about losses, especially the intangible losses in my life and the lives of others, even though upon reflection it was easy to see how they had affected and shaped me. I see this as the beginning of deeper biography work around more than losses. My loss chart provides a good 'backbone' upon which to expand recollection and reflection on life experience. I am very grateful to have found this method. Thank you for seeing your own processes and creating a map for others.

Helped me understand grief and it’s process. Helped me recognize losses I had ignore and assisted me in grieving through those losses in a safe space

it was apparent, to me, that i needed more guidance with resolution (recovery) of 'the' grief. the program had been mentioned to me earlier in the year, and i was not "ready." then, i was. and thankfully, Michele was available to guide me! as a cerebral human, i liked having a book and 'course of study.' and, i questioned some verbiage and assignments; i needed to respect the program and do it 'my way.' i approached the 8 (infinity on it's side) weeks with intent, as well as a raw approach, as i needed it to be genuine and come from the heart, the challenge for me. while i may have known much of the 'psychology content' in the book, i enJOYed the reading of it, as well as the personal components from John & Russell; they helped guide the recovery, also. i was able to view people and experiences in life with new verbiage and/or perspective. the homework assignments allowed me to process and express the "i'm fine" baggage this mind-body & spirit have been carrying. i knew the person and experience that needed to be healed over the 8 weeks. i know the others persons and life experiences that need recovery, also. with this program assignments, i will be able to continue healing and recovering from collective and/or cumulative grief.

The program helped me move beyond the deep grief I was experiencing after suddenly losing my 41 year old son. I didn't think I could feel peace about his death but I do after completing the program.

I have been able to "let some things go" that have been holding me back. I also have had many "ah ha moments" in looking back and linking similar patterns in myself. Thank you for a beautiful experience!

The program helped me to see the pain of grief and the loss as separate. I can acknowledge the loss with less attachment to the pain.

Throughout my life I have participated in a number of different healing modalities and I found this method, with the various graphs and lists, allowed me to make sense of my life. While it wasn't comfortable or easy, it was well worth it. And kudos go to Michele Mariscal for without her deep compassion, her being a heart with two ears, I would have quit.
