Mental Health Disclaimer
Aspects of our programs are mentally and emotionally strenuous and require physical, mental and emotional stability in order to receive and practice the teachings in the way they were intended. Due to the cathartic nature of our programs, those with conditions such as bipolar, schizophrenia and psychosis are required to be under the appropriate treatment for at least one year and submit written approval from a medical professional or case manager.

1. Enrollment Application fee of $800 is non-refundable, unless your application is denied. If your application is denied, you will receive a refund minus a $50.00 administrative fee.
