I took the est training in 1980. Never before had anything impacted my life in this manner. I have been transformed as a result of my experience in est ever since. My wife and I assisted for over a year after graduating and looking back, I can tell you that not one day has gone by that I have not thought about est. Since than I have been committed to making a difference with everyone and everything in my life. It seems that this whole est thing I was a part of in the early 80’s tought me that every word out of my mouth has impact wheather I think so or not. It has been thirty years now and my three kids and their mates have all done the Landmark within the past six months. It looks like all is getting crital mass. Boy, would it be something to attend a homecomming siminar lead by Werner, now in 2009. If only in celebration of nothing!!!! Love, Edward Jules

So, it’s been 28 years since I first graduated from The Training. When Werner said, “Let it disappear into your life” - it did, for me. AND people got it through me, often not knowing that is what they were getting! I have not lived a single day since January 25th, 1981 (my graduation day - Denver Area Center) without est being in my thoughts, in my life, in me, AS me. I created powerful relationships with both of my (now deceased) parents; and with my four brothers (2 of whom have completed The Forum/Advanced Course) and my sister, who has done The Training and Forum/Advanced Course as well. My husband and 2 of his 3 children and their S/O’s have also completed The Forum and it seems, at least, to me that we are all in this amazing process of creating and living into miraculous futures! My daughter will be reviewing the Teen Forum this summer when her younger brother does it for the first time. They both know and have been experiencing their Forum starting for them, since they registered several months ago. It is magical, it is wonderful. It is for ourSelves. What more could I possibly say?

my marriage, my son, friendships. my life would not have been the same without the est training. i got married after the est training and have a wonderful son; i just wouldn’t have made these commitments before the est training. i also became more spiritual after est and met others who shared similar spiritual beliefs; these people became some of my best friends. i am forever grateful to having being involved in est for several years!

I am so happy to find this website! It seems like every day I use what I got in the est training so long ago. I’m 58 and I recently decided to take up playing the violin. I tried when I was in my 20’s but I stopped because it seemed too hard and I didn’t have time - I had lots of reasons why. But then last year I thought of it again - at first my thoughts were “you’re too old, your fingers aren’t flexible enough, it will take years to just get a good sound, on and on and on. However, having done the training, I no longer listen to my thoughts other than to say ‘thank you for sharing!!’ So, I found my violin in my closet, found a teacher, and I’ve now been playing for a year and I sound pretty bad! But I am always getting better and most importantly, I’m doing it for me. Thank you est training and thank you Werner! I love you.
