Certification, Training & Experience

Every action, thought, and feeling is motivated by an intention, and that intention is a cause that exists as one with an effect… In this most profound way, we are held responsible for every action, thought, and feeling, which is to say, for our every intention.      
​Gary Zukav, Seat of the Soul.
