After decades in business, Norb woke up to the lie he had been living.  When he began to unlearn, no longer believing his knowledge, his mind became his ally.  When he began to doubt all his beliefs and everything he had learned from everyone, especially himself, fear fell away.  When he gave up attachments to all he held dear, letting everything be as it is, judgment ceased.  When he no longer believed in any self-assigned role, he found love, respect and complete acceptance.  Norb accepts local and long distance apprentices and teaches introduction, awareness, and transformation Four Agreement classes with his life partner, Helen Turley.

Oksana Yufa

Oksana Yufa
San Diego, CA

In a past several years of Dreaming I became a puddle of love the size of the ocean. I see it reflecting back at me in everything – the eyes of my son , the hands of my beloved, my house, my pets, clients, and my students. My universe is fully recovered. I would like to express gratitude to my teachers Don Miguel and Dona Barbara as well as my dreaming family. I invite you all to play. I currently offer private apprenticeships, lessons, and group workshops in San Diego, as well as a wisdom group which meets every other week.

Carolyn Duval, Taos, NM
The journey from my upbringing in Bali to my present life in New Mexico has been full and exciting. My evolution in this teaching, my life as an artist, my deep connection to nature and my intuitive perceptions have all come together to create a dream that reflects truth, love and authenticity. I am here now to share myself and my wisdom to those who wish to hear a language they can understand as they travel home to the truth of themselves.

I am full of gratitude for the blessings and joy this teaching has brought into my life.  No one is too old, too young, too deeply set in their ways – the only limits are what you set on yourself.  These boundaries will stretch, grow and disappear with practice and with your intent to find love, happiness and joy.  I would be deeply honored to be a mirror, to share, to be a voice of authenticity, or in any way assist in your journey to freedom, happiness, creativity and love.

Tennessee

Dawn Zurlinden Dawn Zurlinden, Nashville, TN

Through this great teaching of Dreaming I have learned to let go and to experience the force of life directly. I am profoundly impacted. My immediate response is to PASS IT ON to others. This reflex is without thought. It looks and feels like an act of love, but it’s beyond that. It seems like such a natural next step, that I can put my faith in it with no doubt. I have been helping people recover the truth about themselves every day for several years as a Toltec teacher and a psychotherapist. At this time, I want to contribute as a teacher more than anything else in my life.
