Self-Mastery takes us to our highest level. To be the Master of your own Self is to fully understand who you really are. It is a discovery of your inner guiding Light and requires a willingness to take full responsibility for your own life.

The Self Mastery Course focuses on healing the perceived separation between personality and Spirit. Through an active exploration of the creative nature of thoughts and feelings, beliefs and emotions, the students will gain mastery in the art of living as conscious, intentional beings.
