Acknowledgments
This book represents the culmination of many years of teaching and research,
and many people have been part of that process.
I’d like to thank all my clients and students over the years. They have, by and
large, been so pleasant to work with and have given me many wonderful insights
and warmth, while enlarging my own knowledge and awareness of the ins and
outs of intuition. I owe them a huge debt for their willingness to work with me
and for all that I have gained from our work.
Close friends have also been supportive of my process and have my whole-
hearted gratitude as well. I’d like to especially thank two good friends, Kathlyn
Bushnell and Theresa Waltermeyer, who have walked the path of writing this
book along with me by listening to my concerns and making suggestions.
I would like to thank everyone at Llewellyn for their belief in this book and
assistance in its preparation, including Angela Wix, Andrea Neff, and Andy
Belmas.
My hope is that all the effort put into the creation of this book may be fruitful
for those who read it.
