I am beyond grateful for Brian. I feel lucky that his group was the one I happened to sign up for. I just picked the next one to start. He took time to answer all of my questions and make sure I was understanding before moving on to anything else. The care and compassion he showed to everyone in the group was really important for this recovery process. It truly helped me to feel comfortable with being completely honest. It was also so nice to not feel like a bother when he responded to my emails. Again, he took the time to answer my questions with care. I would highly recommend anyone taking this program with Brian.

I really appreciated having Brian Magee navigate us through the work included in the book, there were quite a few key pieces of guidance he is trained in that he was able to explain to us so the work we were doing was more effective. i.e. listening (heart with ears); reading aloud apologies, forgives, and significant emotional statements in the third person rather than as if I was speaking directly to the person I lost.

I feel very blessed and so very grateful that I was given this opportunity. I feel emotionally lighter and through this experience and the Relation Graph, I feel like I am able to focus on the more positive side of my relationship with my father and many uncommunicated feelings that I couldn't face or acknowledge before he died. (he died several years ago now). Thank you so much!

As a result of doing the simple but difficult work in the program, a giant burden was lifted from me. I could see my part in carrying the pain I've had, literally for DECADES. Brian Magee was the perfect facilitator. He listened carefully and answered questions fully. Always in a kind, gentle, caring manner. I've also learned how to deal with grief and other issues as things happen rather than letting them pile up. The Recovery Notes are also particularly helpful. THANK YOU ALL FOR THIS PROGRAM!!!

I can very much appreciate and see the value of the process. I did not get the completion I was looking for because I’m dealing with different kinds of grief and loss due to events of loss resulting in a loss of faith, not addressed in these 8 weeks.

I am a big fan of Brian! I would say the program was maybe a bit longer than what I needed. Just for where I was at with my own recovery when I started the program. I also didn't really feel like I had loose ends or needed to heal my relationship with my deceased family member, which was the major focus. I don't have anything negative to say at all about the whole thing, it seems like it has helped a lot of people immensely. It did help me as well to have a support group in general.

Given me a chance to deal with other griefs in my life. thanks

Overall very beneficial, I do think some of the material earlier in the book goes on for longer than necessary (myths, STERBS) and doesn't provide a ton of value. The later chapters (the loss history graph and on) are much more useful though, of course. Doing assignments, readings and meetings for all the earlier topics felt like a lot of effort for little payoff while waiting to get into the meatier stuff.

It helped me get through the worst thing that has ever happened to me in a healthy way and in just 8 weeks!
