Testimonies:
I would just like to say thank you Deborah for your awesome lectures. Listening to them regularly in my car has helped me to raise my vibration because they are full of the higher vibrational ideas and thoughts. Studying the Kybalion was an excellent experience for me. I spent several weeks totally immersed in an alternate mode of thought that has become very beneficial. I recommend this class for anyone who is looking to expand themselves at any level.

Since last week I have been surprised to find myself thinking about the Kybalion a lot. Even though I’m just at the beginning of this journey, I am already able to see how this applies to so many things…..So needless to say, I have been in a very good mood all week and feel like I am vibrating higher than normal. Being in this state of mind made it much easier to see my friends who are vibrating at lower frequencies. When you mentioned that we would change who we surrounded ourselves with, I didn’t really believe it. But now, I’m already having trouble being around negative people. It’s almost like I have a new way of identifying who is positive in my life. I can see people being negative and vibrating at a lower frequency when they don’t have to. It’s not that these people are upset because bad things are happening to them, it’s that they are making bad things happen to themselves and are choosing to stay in a low vibration. It really seems super simple now.
