“During the Divine Feminine Mystery School training, I had the two biggest breakthroughs of my life. With the support of the sacred container we created together, I was able to begin to realize my intention: to fully embody the divine feminine principal in the highest possible vibration and ground it into my body. This work is the most powerful and expansive that I have ever done, and I've done lots of transformational work. My highest commendation goes out to Caroline, Joan, Tomas, and Saida for what they are creating. ”“Very powerful, transformative. Very safe space of unconditional love and acceptance. ”“I never before felt love and acceptance for my body, or an understanding of the sacred spaces of my body! I feel and hold myself in new respect and love, and I feel this way about other women whether I know them or not. It is an incredible experience! ”“Heaven on Earth. Invaluable teachings, masterfully delivered by expert teachers. ”“I have a deeper understanding of the sacredness of woman and of Goddess energy; a deep respect for the Divine Feminine and a profound joy in touching the mystery of myself as a woman, a goddess—through the opening of my eyes and heart. ”“I am so grateful for this time with each of you and I honor the long lineage of wisdom that has come down through you to me and my beloved. I really want to play with you all more! ”“Thank you again, for holding such a beautiful space this weekend. Something that really shone for me, beyond the beautiful goddesses that filled the room, is the aftermath from the weekend. I felt we all went to a very high place, and yet you managed to keep the energy grounded, so that the 're-emergence' into our worlds, has not been a drop... rather a comfortable dance. Thank you graciously for that. ”“Here is an amazing opportunity to be held in the arms of the goddess. It was a retreat such as this with Caroline Muir which I hosted in my home in the Boulder Foothills which fully opened my shakti, and launched me into my work as a Tantrika, and sexual healer. That was over 8 years ago and I am continually in awe to this day of the tremendous support, love and empowerment which is available to us all when we gather with women. Please take a look and see what is available for you through the guidance and love of Caroline Muir and Joan Heartfield, Ph.D. I highly recommend this as a life changing opportunity. ”“I leaned more about mothering from this weekend from the two of you than I did from my own mother. ”“I see that the Divine Feminine work is like the hand of the Goddess brushing over this realm, clearing old energies while preparing the way for new unfoldings. There is a new consciousness being born. And I truly believe that we are midwifing this birth, individually with our private practices, and collectively with paths such as the Mystery School. So I thank you. I thank you for how this work has already changed me. I thank you for the blessings and challenges awaiting us this week. And I really thank you for all the work you did on the mundane tasks and chores that went into pulling together this very complex workshop.”“The teachers were facilitators, the participants were the teachers.”“I absolutely love the NAH. I changed a lot in my sessions and people are so happy and love it and it feels so much better. I am expressing my deep gratitude for your wisdom and knowledge you shared. with warmth and deep appreciation.”“Your presentation was so thoughtful, so sincere, so honest, so direct, so necessary -- how many of us have resented our mother's or other mother figures in our lives who gave us mis-information about our sensuality and sexuality? From the beginning of our discovery of our own bodies we had been told not to touch, don't let anyone touch you, hold out for marriage, blah blah blah. Only to discover that all those tales have done us more harm than if we had been able to explore on our own. I have wondered if the epidemic in breast cancer is related to our being told to not let anyone touch us 'there' and the guilt we have experienced from letting someone touch us in spite of the dire warnings from our mothers. It is 'first base.' Your work is so special and so critical for our sisters and for us.”“Hi Joan, thank you for the time and work you put into the Divine Feminine. Everything in my world has been challenged in the last few years. The training has been a catalyst for me to grow and examine every one of my beliefs. I am learning to be as present as possible in my life, to come from love and to be the non-judgmental witness to my life experience. I really want to give back to the Divine Feminine and others what ever I can. It is an honor to be associated with you and you work. ”“K and I are getting along better than ever. The weekend provided a wonderful breakthrough with our intimacy. ”“As far as meeting my expectations, I saw us creating a sacred goddess temple for the elevation of our souls and a reawakening of who we are. I didn't imagine an emphasis on sexual energy although this really is a source of our aliveness. There was a moment at the end of the demonstration where the 5 of you were surrounding M with love that felt like a re-enactment of a past life experience for me.”“Many thanks for the incredible experience you helped create for us this past month. The impact is lasting and I truly feel the changes in my person are permanent. Often workshops leave one feeling a temporary high that often fades away. This time I feel that I look at the world a bit differently and the result is better relationships and a happier existence. ”“From my heart, I do appreciate you and the work you do. Bringing in deep, core healing with such grace, courage and compassionate love for life Is big medicine for me and the world. ”“Wow! I'm still integrating this past weekend. I took off work on Monday and spent the entire day just sitting with the energy and experience, and basking in the love of the Divine Feminine. That was one of the most profound experiences of my life. I already feel a shift in many areas of my life and feel so much more empowered than ever before. I was also 'out of it' on Tuesday, and didn't really join this world again until Wednesday. I left my body last night and had a wonderful experience in the temple of the goddess, and when I woke up it took me about 10 seconds or so to come back into my body and remember where I was. Wow! I don't remember exact details of the 'dream,' only that I was basking in the goddess love of my sisters and the Divine Mother and I felt great... Powerful!”“I couldn't sleep last night. The tears kept coming, buckets of them. As I cried in my husband's arms, he wanted to know what was 'wrong.' Nothing, I just feel so deeply. 'You're a woman,' he replied. The rain came. Soft and gentle outside my open window. I turned toward the moist air. Enthralled by the gathering droplets of water on each moonlit leaf. My tears fell on my pillow as the earth's tears fell from the sky. One thought, over and over... the world is so beautiful. Watching wet jewels drip from swaying branches, my heart aching. The world is so beautiful. I watched those drops fall, listened to father wind make my chimes sing on my back porch, and felt emotion bursting from every pore until three a.m. In the morning, an invitation. Two women friends (deep thanks) asked me to join them in a natural hot springs journey. Entering that sacred cave, wet, hot, dripping walls, I am again in awe of the immense beauty of the feminine. Ancient ritual, gathering of women, talking, feeling, sharing, healing. This is no breakthrough, I'm not doing that now. This is a slow and gentle awakening. An opening, an unfolding. Patient, quiet, one petal at a time. Peace and honor to all my sisters, and to our brothers who make it possible.”

"In October 2004 I took a course that changed my life... Saida Desilets is a Universal Tao Instructor that specializes in using sexual energy to heal the body... I was referred to her by a fellow healer after coming out of a relationship that raised a lot of questions for me about my relationship with myself... and my inability to love myself and see myself in the way that my previous lovers had... since then, I have continued the practices that Saida teaches in her course and I have observed several changes in my life:

• a shift from expecting others (namely men) to fulfill my needs for love and acceptance to learning how to give this to myself...
• an acute awareness of the fact that judging my body negatively affects the way I see and respond to other women's bodies
• an increased awareness of how connected my sexual energy is with my creativity and how loving I am able to be to myself...
• an increased awareness of using that energy to heal physical, emotional, and spiritual trauma...
• I am more able to be compassionate with myself and others
• I tend to see others more clearly as I have been learning to do the same with myself
• I am a lot better at changing destructive patterns in my life that prevent me from living the life I desire (negative self-talk has especially decreased)
• I've become more acquainted with my body and have learned to read its messages. This has helped me immeasurably in my interactions with others.
• learning to stay in my own integrity and set healthy boundaries with others

The best thing about what Saida teaches is: 'the body is the most accurate teacher. It is our entry point to discovering our essence. each one of us has a body with innate wisdom. because of this, each one of us is our own best master.'

Saida lives this philosophy and she is an expert at creating a safe, sacred, respectful place for women to come and meet themselves on their own terms... perhaps for the first time in their lives (I know that was true for me). These are ancient Taoist practices that have been passed on through thousands of years. It is the best money I have spent in my life. At the time I took the course, I didn't have a lot of money but I felt inside me like it was going to be life changing so I went ahead and took it as an opportunity. Practicing these skills has brought much more prosperity and overall abundance into my life since then and I am currently making twice the amount of money I was making at that time. These practices helped me to get in touch with my heart so I was able to create the life that I wanted."
