At the urging of friends Premda Haberle and Tim Laurence
(of Hoffman UK), Cheshta did the Process in 1994, and
his life was forever changed. “The Process let
me find myself. I was able to accept my loving heart and
view it not as a sign of weakness, but as one of my greatest
strengths, for the very first time.”

Setting sail in 1990, they cruised through the small islands
of the Pacific for more than two years, covering 8,000

After returning from their sail, first Cheshta, then Ginger
did the Process. In 2000 Ginger was certified as a Process
teacher and it was an answer to her prayers: finding fulfilling
and meaningful work was part of her life-long vision.

Sharon has been a Process teacher since 1995. “I
get nourishment and huge satisfaction experiencing others
getting free, breaking out, loving themselves, and moving
forward in their lives. Teaching is like being a midwife,
supporting others to experience themselves in a way they
never have, to realize that there is more to them, the
world, the universe than they ever knew.”

“I think the biggest thing I found was self
acceptance, that who I am is enough. The circumstances
of my life were still painful, but through the Process
I could feel the pain of the divorce, the loneliness of
it, and not personalize it. We can’t always change
our circumstances, but our circumstances don’t define
us. Our Spiritual Self defines us.”

our deeper self, our parents, the world around us, and
the divine."

"Teaching the Process... requires me to be a
life-long learner and to use the tools in service of my
life's vision and continue to transform the negative patterns
in my own life. I then have the great privilege of witnessing
