What retreat and vacationing guests have written about their experience of Awakening In Paradise.


Sheoli, I would like to acknowledge and thank you once again for the love and honest communication
you extended to me in last weeks retreat. I have noticed a lot of change since my return
to the corporate investment banking universe. I am aware of being still and centered.
I have also noticed I have been relating to women totally differently in my work environment
and receiving a much more positive response than prior to the retreat. I realize that it was what
I was projecting that was causing communication breaks. I have really worked hard at being in the
moment rather than drifting off into my past or dwelling on some negative geopolitical event occurring
somewhere on the planet. I am also aware of the negative chatter that is often in my mind.

I had an amazing experience last Sunday, when I was hunting for a present for my wife's birthday.
I let my higher self select the present. It directed me to a new age shop, in a shopping mall near
where I live. I must have walked past this shop 50 times and never noticed it before! In the shop I
found this beautiful crystal rock that an artist had chiseled out three dolphins. It seemed they are
dancing in surf. It is truly exquisite. In this shop I had an amazing conversation with the shop
assistant and during the conversation I noticed for perhaps the first time since I can remember,
that I was communicating from my heart chakra rather than my head. My wife was delighted with her gift.

The last few days my wife and I have been meditating in the morning for 15 minutes prior to commencing
our days. I have refrained from turning on the television first thing in the morning to check out the
U.S. financial markets. Instead apart from the meditation. I have recently started to enjoy the sunrise
over the Pacific and listen to the bird life. We are very lucky to live in a beautiful of this planet.

Once again thanks for your wonderful communication.

Regards,

S. White, banker, Austrialia



Dear Sheoli,
Thank you for a wonderful Awakening Retreat in your Paradise!
I had a very blessed and grace-filled time. All the meals were great, the meditations uplifting and healing, dolphin swims awesome, boat trips exciting and rhythmic, volcano excursion healing and renewing, sunsets and especially Moon sets gorgeous and magnificent, your retreat center relaxing and quiet, Purrl is a purrfect cat.
Most of all, thank you for the gift of your spirit of love and service. You are an example I hope to emulate in my life's work. You have helped to awaken a new spirit of love, peace and joy in me that I will carry forever.
Sheoli you will always be my sister-in-love.
Aloha and Mahalo,

Hi Sheoli,
I wanted to thank you again for giving us such a wonderful experience this past week.
You were so patient to help Tom feel comfortable in the water and were so generous
in sharing the morning snorkel with us - truly the high-light of the trip and a
special experience that will remain in my heart forever.
Living there and getting to experience the dolphins all the time must be a true
blessing. We would really like to do something special for you to show our
appreciation. I want to be able to refer interested people to you for the boat and
shore swims, since I know for sure that their experience with you will be positive
for the dolphins as well as the visitors.
Again, a big Mahalo for a great two days...and we are looking forward to seeing you
again on our next trip.
Best regards,
Steve



Dear Sheoli,
Thank you for introducing us to your friends, the dolphins.
I was fortunate to swim near them and with them three times.
During and after each experience many things arose in my consciousness.
It was all summed up after the thrid swim with the following phrase:
"There is no need to chase after God."
At this stage in my life,, nothing cound have been more profound.
Thank you for opening your herat and your home, that we might share the joy you have been living with.
Very Sincerely,
Richard Welker
