A Week With Serge Benhayon

Heather Pope on spending a week with Serge Benhayon
by Heather Pope
​There are very few weeks in a lifetime that most people would look back and say “that was a defining week in my life, it changed everything”. Perhaps when a child is born, or a death of a close one, or other such major life event, but apart from that each week is pretty much the same. Today as I travel home from a Universal Medicine Retreat presented by Serge Benhayon I can say without any doubt or exaggeration my life will never be the same again. 
The way I see myself, the understanding I have of who I am, and the lens I have not only of my personal history, but of the world as a whole is now the widest of wide angles with insights beyond anything thought possible.
Most of us live a well trodden path in life, reasonably predictable on a daily, weekly and yearly basis. There is sleep, work, family, friends, shopping, cooking, TV and sport. A health issue, moving house, divorce or world event might alter the pattern, but on the whole each day is much the same. Enter Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon with ground breaking insights that stop this daily existence in its tracks. 
Such giant questions as “who am I” and “what is the purpose of life” are not only answered, but revealed as simple first steps on what is a wondrous journey of living life filled with joyfulness, loving relationships and purpose each day.
Universal Medicine presents retreats 3 times a year, and has done so since 2008. The retreats are effectively a “live in” situation with anywhere from 200-400 attendees. The days start around 5am and finish with dinner, so by anyone’s standard they are full days. Serge Benhayon not only presents what is typically 8 or 9 hours of “hang on every word” content each day, he is also with the group for the entire time of the retreat, staying onsite, dining with attendees and available for questions at any time. In past years I have attended workshops with other well known speakers and know through first hand experience that the accessibility of Serge Benhayon is unprecedented. On one retreat that is held in Vietnam, if you are there a day or two early you will see Serge out walking or shopping, interacting with locals, dressed in his track suit, living as any normal man would. He is without doubt a man of the people, he lives what he presents, he is by all accounts a “normal" man, and yet his version of normal offers us all a new normal, one that brings life alive.
Through his dedication to humanity, and commitment to living a life of service Serge Benhayon is a world leader.
​
This may not be known by the world yet, but that does not diminish the value of what he presents.
He works not for accolades, but so that each of us can know through our own connection to ourselves who we really are. What greater gift is there than that. Through his work hundreds, if not thousands of people have dramatically changed their lives, including myself. Gone is the daily grind, and instead there is joy at work, loving friendships and family, and appreciation for the beauty of the world. I am forever in debt to Serge Benhayon, and I gladly pay that debt every day simply by being who I truly am, for that is all that is needed.

Heather I too have attended retreats with Serge Benhayon and they are a highlight of my year that I would not miss. You sum it up beautifully with your words 'Such giant questions as “who am I” and “what is the purpose of life” are not only answered, but revealed as simple first steps on what is a wondrous journey of living life filled with joyfulness, loving relationships and purpose each day'. My life has transformed since meeting Serge and I now know there is no limit (other than self imposed ones) to the depths we can go or the joy that is there to be lived.

This is completely my experience as well Heather. My only problem is that every retreat, I seem to walk away and say 'that has redefined my life'. Just when I think what he offers has peaked, there is always, always, always a deeper place he goes.

There is always a deeper awareness available I agree. Looking back at where I was before meeting Serge Benhayon 13 years ago, the level of understanding I have now about life and its meaning is light years ahead. I wonder where I will be in another 13 years!

I can relate to that, Joel, I have attended at least one retreat each year for the past 9 years, and have the same reaction each time. I have felt my whole understanding of my role in life redefined. It builds and builds over the years, becoming a deeper understanding every year.

I agree Joel, just when you think that's it, we cannot go any deeper or raise our awareness any more, Serge Benhayon opens the door a little wider and re-introduces us to more of the Universe we live in. This is a never ending journey into the true depths of who we are, the immensity of our power and responsibility and the real grace, truth and harmony we are all capable of living. Post Retreat each day delivers us with even more simple choices to make life about evolution, honesty, awareness and connection, arms open wide sitting there waiting for us to make the move towards more of who we so naturally are.

Same for me Joel, I find the Universal Medicine retreats are so valuable, amazing and out of this world. Where else can we gather to share, workshop and talk about humanity, love and about how we can evolve as a race that allows us to live in harmony? For me, Universal Medicine is the only place where I feel totally held in love, met with absolute respect and where I feel safe to share, learn and grow. Serge Benhayon presents with absolute love, truth, respect, transparency and joy. He inspires us to see and appreciate the love that is all around and within us. What a gem he is, shining truth and love on humanity with steadiness and consistently. WOW!

What Heather Pope beautifully highlights for us, is how Serge Benhayon may be presenting a retreat, but no one is ever left out. So although there are people who are attending his presentations, the person who runs or owns a shop next door is met with equal integrity and care. There is no on or off switch for Serge, he is simply giving his all, all of the time. This is one of the most inspiring ways of who he is and of how he lives his life.

Thank you Heather for your testimony, I can only agree wholeheartedly with every word expressed. I too have never met anyone like Serge Benhayon before, despite meeting many people in the field of alternative medicine and the ‘self help’ arena. Serge is a world leader and although the world has yet to wake up to this fact, he continues with a relentless power to deepen our appreciation and awareness of who we truly are and the responsibility we have to claim, embody and express our truth in our daily lives to live as he lives, a normal man leading a normal life – one that is full of joy, vitality, universal wisdom and people. This is not an exclusive privilege but an innate heritage, one that is available to us all and Serge Benhayon dedicates every moment of his life to ensuring that the message gets through to everyone, via the living example he and now thousands of other people you and me included, offer people all over the world. There is another way to live to makes everyday a joy, a Universal Way that includes every living soul standing on this planet, a Way that returns us to our true humble glory.

My experience of Serge Benhayon is that it is true, he is not special in that he is a person with an essence, as we all are. He is however, though his consistent choices and actions, a role model for us all in how to live soulfully on earth.

And this is what I love about Serge Benhayon, he lovingly reminds us that we are all the same, all equally powerful, highly intelligent and Godly beings. He is no different to any of us and we all have access to the same wisdom and divine intelligence. Amazing, because when I am in his presence, I always feel held as an equal and I am always met with a depth of love and respect that inspire me to understand and see that this is how we should all meet each other with absolute love and respect.

The comment 'leaving the daily grind' is a powerful observation in itself. When I think of 'the daily grind' I think of the mill stones of old, endlessly grinding the grain to pulp... and it is as if humanity is also caught or trapped between giant grinding stones of expectations and beliefs, and then ... the possibility of being freed of this 'well trodden path'! But the path is so worn that it requires a paradigm shift of enormous integrity to dissolve this momentum, and this is what Serge Benhayon offers to humanity... the opportunity to leap out of the generations-old tracks and, with the lightness of being that comes naturally with this shift, experience a life that is hitherto fore unthinkably enjoyable.

Great insight Chris, the path is so worn it does need a giant paradigm shift. This is where Serge Benhayon is a master, bringing out from under the mill stones an unparalleled level of awareness that seeds forth a new way of living.

Paradigm shift - what a great term. It is incredible to see and understand how imprisoned we actually are by paradigms that we hold of life. To be freed of those, liberated from the invisible bars that hold us blind to who we really are in something that I am eternally grateful to Serge Benhayon for offering.

What a stunning testimonial Heather and one I can attest to one billion percent having attended many Universal Medicine retreats. It is a case of hanging on to every word Serge presents for there is not a minute wasted and what is presented is absolutely life-changing. As you so beautifully put it, the daily grind most of us think is our lot in life, save for the odd escape and holiday here and there, is no longer a way of life that comes close to what I live now. Joy, in the true sense of the word, that is of knowing me in my essence and bringing the real me to my surroundings, my colleagues, family, friends and everyone I meet is now the hallmark. Life is rich, full and in celebration of the innate truth and love I was forever seeking prior to meeting Serge and in doing so, reconnecting with my soul. He is absolutely a world leader, and what Serge has earthed for humanity will never ever leave, it is here to stay, to expand and expand without end. This I know from the depths of my being, from the depths of who I am.

He is a Master of all he shares so lovingly with us all. I feel deeply blessed and often feel to gently pinch myself that I am here, listening to all these words of wisdom from this amazing man.

We're given the impression in life that we may never know the answers to life's "giant questions" like "who am I" and "what is the purpose of life". But still the search is upheld as the 'be all and end all'. This is such an enormous lie, when we could just cut to the chase and spend a day with Serge Benhayon. As you've expressed so well Heather, with Serge, the big questions "are not only answered, but revealed as simple first steps on what is a wondrous journey of living life filled with joyfulness, loving relationships and purpose each day".

And i - like a lot of people studied at University, under the impression that this study would give me the answers to those big questions - it didn't. It was only when I began to engage and live the work of Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon did I begin to get to the real answers to those questions.

What a huge statement to say that University didn't give you what you needed to know to live a full life. I guess most people would agree with that, and such is the true value of what Serge Benhayon offers the world.

First of all, thank you for sharing your awe and appreciation Heather Pope. What touched me was the way you described the lifes of the majority of this world. How many moments / times do we come accross people that Truly meet us, Truly supply answers and where we're left being touched and embraced with Love? For as far as my experiences go with Serge Benhayon, he's like this with every single one he meets. Every single moment (nearly, as no one is perfect). It's a True blessing to know Serge Benhayon and being offered the depth of Life and the Purpose we are living here on planet earth.

We're to simply express ourselves each and everyday. But in order to do so, we are to learn to know when we are ourselves and when we're not. Through the teachings (sharings in fact, because everything he presents is allready known within me - the difference is that I've disconnected from it) I've learnt who I am, to connect to me and to live to the best of my ability from that Loving connection.

Serge Benhayon is a world leader who is yet to be discovered by the majority. Maybe he will not be fully recognised for all that he brings to humanity until many many years down the track, after he is no longer here. Either way it is available now to anyone who is willing to open our eyes and see what is possible. What is possible in terms of living exactly who we were born to live. Or as the blog says "being who I truly am, for that is all that is needed."

Its true Heather, I know there is nothing more that I cherish is knowing more of the great man that I am. Serge Benhayon has been one of those people who have highlighted these facts, and mostly, I have felt them then and there but have not continued to walk what I now know. Serge Benhayon certainly walks the talk and I would describe this as living in a way that gives all that he knows to all that he meets. I have only just touched on this myself — loving, caring, cherishing, connecting, holding all .... and any other as someone who is so dearly special and they should know just like Serge Benhayon holds me.

Very succinctly put Heather, I attended the same retreat and my life will never be the same again because of it. This I am most thankful for as certain illusions I had been living under were blown out of the water and a greater clarity arrived at in regard to life, love, people, and myself. Neither does a retreat end at the 'end of the retreat' as what unfolds within it also gives us the means to continue the process in our daily lives.

These life changing events leave me speechless and spacious and I am beginning to understand why they are called retreats: re-treats – we return again and again to devour the truth the takes us to a deeper level each time.

Heather, Serge Benhayon has also been the pivotal point in many changes in my life. His awareness of humanity and the way we live that is not who we really are is unprecedented and his forever love of humanity continues to support us all to feel and see where and how it is that we shy away from our own love and endless beauty that resides within. With this support, I for one have found a well of love inside that once upon a time did not even sense was a part of me. There is nothing more beautiful in this world that I have felt than to feel this love in myself and equally in others and to stand with another human being with this feeling inside of my body. Yes I too happily pay the debt of being myself.

This is simply true Heather - the moment I first heard Serge Benhayon speak I knew I was hearing the truth my body had been holding all of my life but which I had chosen to not listen to. The puzzle of the world and my movement through it all became clear and the loving choice to start claiming this truth started. Serge Benhayon brings love to everything and everyone and the responses he gets to this, no matter what form it takes, loving or unloving never affects the course of his livingness on this earth and the love that he holds all others in. I feel truly blessed to have meet Serge Benhayon many times and to have experienced all he offers, he too, has changed my life.

It is unending. And where I am in life 10 years on from meeting Serge Benhayon, the quality of life, as well as the level of commitment and responsibility I feel is something I could not have seen in my wildest dreams. Having Serge Benhayon in my life has been the greatest gift ever.

What Serge Benhayon shares is absolute gold, worth more than anything could ever be in this world. He offers a solid consistency of truth, love, deep care and a lot of joy that is for most, unfortunately, something that is rarely experienced in their lives. Yet here Serge is offering what is in-truth simple common-sense truths about everyday life that we have generally 'forgotten' to live. His endless love for all is undeniable, even being in his presence feels like receiving a massive hug and tenderness and care, untouched by any judgement or comparison, just met for who one truly is

This is a great focus on retreats Heather as it is there where you get to really intimately know Serge Benhayon's wealth of understanding of life over a five day period. As you say, even though presenting to hundreds of people, there is always space for a one to one chat and to get to experience many facets of the truth that Serge presents so it does feel like a complete life makeover.

Absolutely wholeheartedly agree. After having attended a number of retreats myself I can say that life-changing is not an overstatement. Each event that I attend that is held by Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon takes me deeper into myself revealing more, remembering more, connecting more. Such appreciating for all that this man reflects for us.

Heather, if you're cheeky and glorious smile is anything to go by, each word must be true! I know it from my own experiences of the Unimed Retreats where I too, hang off each and every word Serge speaks as I feel the new depths within me open up. Not always comfortable but then again, that's why I go! Unlocking the comfort we humans tend to strive to live in is a big task, yet Serge does it seemingly effortlessly. His work and the volume he brings through is astonishing to most people's standards of productivity yet his well is as deep as the Universe itself and I for one, am joyful in having found this wellspring that incidentally, we all have within ourselves, also. Thanks, Heather for your testimonial.

What an amazing review of the retreats and testimony for Serge Benhayon and all he presents through the retreats. I have been to a couple and have found each and everyone life changing. They offer me a break and a new marker to bring into my life. The opportunity to go away from your 'normal' to reassess and then bring that back into your daily life choosing a new normal is the best medicine we can have.

I have also returned from the retreat in complete awe. There are simply no words to describe the gift we have been given. What is given at these retreats is for ALL, that means that whilst those present receive an unbelievable healing and what you could call the answer to everything – it is clearly also given to all of humanity and a way of life to share.

Following on from my previous comment, the wonderful way of life that Serge Benhayon shares is spectacularly extraordinary in how simple and ordinary it is, how it is available to everyone and it really works! For example, I live in Australia and have just returned from the UK Retreat. My journey over took 49 hours, I started the retreat the next day.The retreat ran from around 5am to 7pm for 5 consecutive days and then I immediately returned on a 47 journey without any jet lag. As Heather shared, Serge presents and speaks for many hours on end without notes, every word he says is riveting and he is available for personal questions and meetings in every break – always present, always vital and always in service. All of this on one meal a day and zero caffeine, gluten, dairy, added sugar or any other stimulants. This shows very clearly that there is another way to live and life does not need to be the exhausting struggle that many experience but can actually be very joyful!

A great testament to Serge Benhayon Heather. I have attended several Universal Medicine Retreats and I can also vouch that they are indeed life changing. One only needs to spend a few minutes in the presence of Serge Benhayon to feel the possibility of living our true potential. Five days on retreat with Serge Benhayon and it is guaranteed that we will no longer be the same. Serge Benhayon is a leading light, an inspiration to humanity and a reflection to us all what is possible - to live our lives fully with love for ourselves and in turn love for all.

The retreats offer a very real stop moment where I can go deeper into those bigs questions of how do I live authentically and with purpose as I am forever changing and expanding like everything. But what is so unique about what is presented at these retreats is that you are held in the energy of who we truly are so it is a felt experience not so much a mental experience of acquiring knowledge. I am forever grateful for Serge Benhayon's consistent and loving approach to sharing what is there for all of us to remember and return to.

Or is there just another from or distraction, numbing and entertainment that gives the illusion that one has 'beaten the system'? What is presented by Serge at the recent retreats is absolute gold and the key to true freedom, living a purposeful and connected life within the dysfunctional system..as Serge has said on many occasion..."to swim like a fish but not get wet!".

But absolutely it does, it is in fact the innate way we are all meant to be, and Serge Benhayon reflects back to us consistently every single day.

There the retreat comes to its full expression in applying what I have learned and understood. And each time it is changing my life.

Serge Benhayon has, in this year's retreats, presented us with a way to understand why we, and everyone on this planet, do the things we do. His presentations are always clear and simple, and anyone who is open to listening can choose how they live with that understanding. We can beat ourselves up and judge others for just about everything we/they do, or we can understand what is driving our actions, understand that we always have a choice, and understand that it is our responsibility to restore true Brotherhood on Earth.

His ability to explain and reason is otherworldly you might say, yet he is so normal ,accessible and without ego. That is his uniqueness in a world where world leaders are consumed by themselves or driven out of their pure intention, Serge Benhayon stays absolutely true to what it is he is here to do, without making it at all about himself.

Serge Benhayon consistently delivers the wisdoms we are calling for and never does he make his work about himself, his focus remains constantly attuned to the needs of humanity and issues we all face. Serge remains resolute in purpose, raising our awareness and encouraging us to face what we have avoided for so long, the immense responsibility we have in raising the quality of our lives for the benefit of everyone in this world. We are so much more powerful than we really want to admit and Serge is never shy in reminding us of this immutable fact.

It is rare to meet a person who consistently and firmly lives what they present, but it is possible. Serge Benhayon is the real deal, a man whose humbleness breaks down all barriers, whose wisdom brings us face to face with our power and our problems, showing us all that we are the creators of our own mess and unquestionably our own saviours too. We can never leave his company without feeling that something substantial has altered within us, that we are re-tracing our steps towards our own awesomeness and that is it very possible to live this in our everyday lives. A true gift from a very big hearted man.

Serge Benhayon is such an ordinary yet extraordinary man. He is one of the most down to earth and real people I have ever met, yet at the same time he is timeless and brings a multidimensionality to the moment that is indescribably beautiful. Just being in his presence is like allowing the body to get re-organised in such a subtle way that you cannot help yourself to feel purpose and meaning in life as well as joy and connection with others - the very qualities in life that most of us are missing and crave desperately. When you embrace this, then it is like life then has a grander and deeper meaning, and we know why we are here, as it is the body knowing why and not the mind questioning why.

True Heather, Serge Benhayon does not respond personally or present courses or workshops for his own accolades. He knows who he is and what he is here to do. His way of life is founded upon the Joy he sees in others returning back to their Joy. This is not the power of ‘good’ but the power of truth through the understanding why choices are made - no judgement just a forever steadiness of love - the power of the volume of love in holding through connection.

“There are very few weeks in a lifetime that most people would look back and say ‘that was a defining week in my life, it changed everything’.“ So true Heather. Yet what I have learned from Serge Benhayon is that it is possible to live in a way that every day and every interaction is a redefining moment in my life, and I can see that this is how he lives every day, as do his family. It is astonishing how most of us including myself have been for so long resigned to keep going round and round in lives that are frankly uninspiring at best and quite horrendous at worst. It is a real blessing that Serge Behayon shows a different way by example. Sometimes it takes a while for the penny to drop about what he is actually sharing and at times it takes much longer for me to embrace the gems I have understood, yet it is always always life enhancing.

'Such giant questions as “who am I” and “what is the purpose of life” are not only answered, but revealed as simple first steps on what is a wondrous journey of living life filled with joyfulness, loving relationships and purpose each day.' It is true; very giant questions are not only brought clearly to the fore but answered by Serge Benhayon. The beautifull thing about this is it is not knowledge being spouted from the head but instead Soulfully and heartfully impulsed, expressed and felt within the body. Not only this it is not Serge just standing talking and answering or asking giant questions but this is done as a whole, a collective group with every person within the room. Everyone goes there together and this is where the magic is truly life changing and felt. Many times I have gone to courses, presentations and workshops held by Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine and will continue to do so for the rest of my life, this is about brotherhood and true evolution. No matter what is felt, how big or what revelations are revealed ultimately it is up to each and every one of us how we live and choose to live when we walk out the door, that is when it truly begins.

The day that I first met Serge Benhayon, I finally felt that I had come home, but I don't think for a moment that I realised that my life was about to change forever, with the life that I had struggled through for many decades slowly but surely making way for a life that I never thought was possible. So for me too Heather these words speak clearly of a man whose presence in this world is so very needed and that: "Through his dedication to humanity, and commitment to living a life of service Serge Benhayon is a world leader"; so very, very undeniably true. It’s time for the world to wake up and to realise that they have an amazing man in their presence, a man whose wisdom and common sense are shining a very bright light on the way that is possible out of the mess that humanity has created.

I wonder the size of the statistic would be if we did a survey on how many people felt their life was nuance, boring, routine and dull - a rut we can't get out of, a pattern of behaviours we can't seem to shake? What Serge's presentations have given me is not a life full of danger, adventure and risk, but a life where the day to day can be the same on the surface, but the way I go about living is totally different - there is a lightness and a joy, a lack of reaction and exhaustion that makes life worth living.

Heather you have written a beautiful testimonial here. I absolutely agree with everything you have said as I have done a number of retreats, workshops and courses with Serge Benhayon too - "he is by all accounts a “normal’ man, and yet his version of normal offers us all a new normal, one that brings life alive." This statement is so beautifully phrased as it encapsulates perfectly the essence of why knowing Serge Benhayon has been so special and life changing. My new normal through having known Serge is purposeful and lived in loving connection - the mundane is no longer mundane but can sparkle along with all those other moments that make up life - there is indeed not one dull moment in my day or anything in my life that is worthy of complaint!

Absolutely Heather by no means the value of what Serge Benhayon presents is any less because he is not know yet as a world leader. He most definitely is a world leader and It is only a matter of time for this to be know, because as you say through Serge we have access to the Ageless Wisdom that has been around for eons and there is hundreds if not thousands of people starting to change their lives because of the practical living way Serge lives and presents this way of living, also known as The Way of the Livingness. My life has never been the same since I meet Serge and I have never felt this amazing and never knew that it was possible.

Serge Benhayon 'is without doubt a man of the people, he lives what he presents, he is by all accounts a “normal’ man, and yet his version of normal offers us all a new normal, one that brings life alive.'
That is central for me - this man simply presents a way of living that anyone, and I mean anyone, can choose. I know that my life before I met him was certainly not alive, but full of misery. He is an inspiration - a living example of how life CAN be lived.

Yes this week Retreat was defining for me too, as to meet Serge Benhayon and what he is presenting at all around 10 years ago. My life changed enormously - or better: I did become alive. My life is much better now, I am more healthy, have great relationships and a good job. I could say: 'thank you Serge' - and stop here, stay with what I achieved. But this would mean to try to hold what I've got for my own, don't bother about the world 'out there', would mean separation again and it would mean to live the opposite of what Serge presents.
So - I chose this path and so life will change again, again and again. What an adventure.

Having just attended a Universal Medicine retreat as hosted by Serge Benhayon myself, I agree that they are life changing experiences that bring great purpose and meaning to my life. They have shown me that life does not have to be a daily struggle or grind for survival and security and an endless craving for a more comfortable life, but there is another level to live - one of vitality, joy and service to others that builds on and confirms itself and brings an enormous amount of love to myself and to everyone around me.

I can't help but notice that most of us, when we get up and fly off to do something, we bump into things, drop things, it's like our molecules are flying off in all directions, whereas Serge is fully with his Soul in all his movements. It's a real beauty to watch and inspiring - for this is how we can all walk through life.

Up until meeting Serge Benhayon and Universal Medicine there were no weeks in my life that ever brought such amazing and permanent life shifting awareness and evolution. I am continually struck by the constant growth in awareness that Serge delivers. In the 10 years of knowing him I have never seen him stand still in the voyage of his own evolution, a quality that is not reserved for himself but openly and wisely shared with everyone, so that we all have the opportunity to learn, evolve and remember who we really are and what is important in life. Seeing how I have changed and grown and how hundreds of other people are choosing to do the same brings a richness of love and appreciation for Serge Benhayon and everything he relentlessly works for. The depth of Serge's love for humanity is unfathomable.

This is a great description of Serge Benhayon “he is by all accounts a “normal’ man, and yet his version of normal offers us all a new normal, one that brings life alive.” This is such a humongous gift, to witness another person the same as me and you, in flesh, living the same life, with the same challenges and at times more, yet – he lives the most consistent level of all qualities I hold dear, which for a long time I thought you had to disappear into the Himalayas, into a monastery or something like that to achieve, and so I had given up on the possibility of ever witnessing anyone living these qualities consistently in normal life and in society. He lives this day in day out, 24/7 and so does his family. Not only that, there are thousands of people like Heather, like me, being inspired to live it too. Yeay!

We live is a society where ‘normal’ is considered to be that we lose ourselves in our jobs, that we learn how to just get though life, that we seek the best ways to entertain ourselves, we are dishonest with how we area feeling, that we are abusive in relationships with ourselves and others, that we are competitive, protective and in comparison with each other, that we are defined by what we do, that we learn how to manage dis-ease in our body all whilst putting on a smile and to show we are ‘happy’ to name but a few… Serge Benhayon is absolutely redefining the meaning of normal, what our normal actually is by consistently living and openly sharing what he live. That living in a loving way that is in connection to our Soul we are then simply guided by our truth to discover that there is a richness, a multidimensionality to life for us all to explore in all that we do and with all that we are with. In other words there is so much more to discover of the depth that our lives offer us and each other when we are willing to look within, to who we truly are.

When our hearts are truly open to hearing the truth our lives are then open to being transformed by the grace that truth brings. This is what has happened for me from day one in meeting and listening to Serge Benhayon and The Ageless Wisdom Teachings, as my life has never been that same since, thank God. It was this connection to myself that I was always seeking and the lack this connection was why I was existing in a way where I felt constantly unsettled. Although my openness to hearing the truth has done and still does at times waver, I am now aware that it is only ever myself that limits the degree to which my life is adjusts so I can live the glory that we are all born to live.

Yes I recognize in what you are sharing Heather. Loved reading it. Meeting Serge Benhayon was perhaps THE defining moment in my life, when things started shifting in a total different direction. Serge presents answers to the questions "who Am I" and "What is the purpose of life" - he not only presents the answers, which are not really answers but a way of living, by teaching it but more importantly, by being a living example of those teachings himself. His life is amazing, but he clearly explains that this kind of life is possible for everybody. We are ALL equal, he doesn't have special gifts that makes his life possible. It is all a matter of choices. His life should be the normal for everybody. I deeply appreciate having Serge Benhayon in my life, I appreciate his teachings and the reflection he brings me. It is a big present. The only way I can and should return this present is by living all that Serge is living ALL of me in FULL as well. Pay it forward.

Serge Benhayon is definitely teaching us a new 'normal' - instead of focusing on our intelligence and academic or business achievements, we are focusing on what we feel in our bodies and nourishing ourselves, and as a result, our achievements are amazing.

How this will change education when instead of children being force fed knowledge and sitting exams, they will be encouraged to feel within and know they have a wealth of knowledge inside them. Yes, we have to learn skills to be a doctor, dentist etc., but with the bonus of tapping into the universal wisdom too, so much more is available to us all.

I agree wholeheartedly, Heather. I as well have joined 4 retreats now, and every retreat was a lifechanger in the sense that I understood more of who I am but also who the " others" are and this changes totally how we see the world and ourselves in it. I love the retreats and I appreciate deeply Serge Benhayon as the presenter.

Heather, the humility that Serge lives and that you have described here is deeply touching. To connect to the normality of living who we truly are is earth-shattering in its simplicity, and yet this is what Serge presents each and everyday. "He is without doubt a man of the people, he lives what he presents, he is by all accounts a “normal’ man, and yet his version of normal offers us all a new normal, one that brings life alive."

Serge Benhayon never ceases to inspire me, there is nothing more amazing to witness than his absolute commitment to people - I have seen a queue as long as the conference room to speak to him, and no one part of his manner is saying that is is flagging, getting tired or annoyed or just wants to go home, or looking wide eyed at just how long its going to take him to get though all those people. He is always there, loving, respectful and ready to help everyone as needed.

Not only is Serge Benhayon there at the end of a workshop, that may have been going for several days, and he still has seemingly abundant energy for anyone who would like support. Many of us don't even have enough energy for our families when arriving home at the end of the day. Clearly this is a man to be studied for he offers a new way of living that has the qualities many of us are looking for in life.

I also find that gone is the daily grind, the overwhelm, the misery of Sunday's because I was dreading Mondays. Instead I love every day the same, I have a whole lot of fun and work is just another way of enjoying my life in full. What a gift that is. Thank you Serge Benhayon!

On meeting Serge I realised very quicky that this was not the case. It was my created reality through the choices I was making. Knowing Serge has changed my life around completely. I am constantly learning about myself and others as he brings more and more understanding to the life and world we live in.

There can be no more giant questions than these Heather "Such giant questions as “who am I” and “what is the purpose of life”". Not only have these been answered time and time again by Serge, with deepening revelation as each retreat passes, but that we're called on to experience life for ourselves with new awareness of us, each other and the grander context of the stars. Indeed, what greater gift is there than that?!

Through knowing Serge Benhayon Heather I can honestly echo your words. My life has never been the same since first meeting him. As time goes by I am supported to continue to refine my awareness and understanding of life and I have been given such an amazing foundation to live my life from. I am a completely different person with very few, if any worries or concerns and am now very steady in work and at home. I am never bored although I am rarely stimulated and full of appreciation for everything in my life with the tools to handle anything challenging that comes my way totally understanding where any reaction may come from so that I can make different choices. Seriously how much more could one human being do for another? When I feel that really there is no more to go Serge continues to take me to whole new levels!

You have encapsulated so much with such deft simplicity here Heather – I agree with every word, from my own experience also.
And your words say so very much, such as: "Such giant questions as “who am I” and “what is the purpose of life” are not only answered, but revealed as simple first steps on what is a wondrous journey of living life filled with joyfulness, loving relationships and purpose each day."
A Retreat with Universal Medicine IS exactly this – questions that we have so long sought answers to become simple fundamentals, as we go deeper and realise that there is so much for us to be aware of in life and the way we live it, coupled with a richness of consistent and continual presentations that demonstrate that such a life of joy and purpose is accessible to all.

This is the thing – I also have never left a Universal Medicine Retreat, or indeed any presentation or session with Serge Benhayon, feeling just 'inspired by great awarenesses and ideas'. I leave feeling and knowing a fundamental change in my body and being – and the way my life is lived from that point opens up accordingly… to more love, more awareness, and the capacity to make choices that confirm and ground all that I am.
Nowhere else have I ever experienced such true wisdom – wisdom that is lived, and translates to every facet and pocket of life. Wisdom that leads us to only realise all the more deeply as time goes on, just how we are here for all, and our every action and choice impacts upon all.

What Serge brings is a level of normal to human life that feels more true than what human life has currently been dressed up and enforced to be. I have found that while life can have it's down moments that they don't have to be our sole focus, who we truly are is far grander than those dips and we can address them sensibly without going into them and making those issues who we are and getting entangled in all of it. Over time the consistency of this man has allowed me to step by step accept this level of normality that living in a loving way is truly natural and innate in us and that it is no big deal to live like this as a human being.

Never has there been a push towards this, it has only been lived and presented and we are allowed to step towards living this way in our own time.
From once holding him on a pedestal believing I couldn't talk or even look at him to now feeling a freedom in my body to look at him in the eyes as we pass each other is a testament to my own development and how by not imposing a way of life on others but simply reflecting how to live is the truest way of inspiring change.

I felt truth in a statement by Heather that Serge Benhayon lives in a way where his normal makes life come alive and have been pondering why this is. I feel it is because he is presenting to everyone what all our potential is with total humility of knowing it. So it comes across as very possible and normal and so brings that moment of reconnection to this possibility very much alive. There is vitality in this, an uplifting, which reveals at the same time, this is not our reality yet, Very healing, inspiring and sobering in the same moment.

An event in life is no longer just an event when you have a wide angle.

Now my perspective is totally opposite, I get to work an hour early in order to give myself the time and space to do my work, I support staff and present by my living way how life can be when we make connection the key in our interactions.

Here is one man who offers a different way, and many, many people are saying "yes, that way works!".

Heather, what you have expressed about the retreats and Serge Benhayon is absolutely my experience too. When you shared how available and completely dedicated to people Serge is, I could feel yet another level of appreciate for this than I already had. It is so extraordinary it is almost unbelievable. Yet I have had the gift of observing this man for 15 years and this love is unwavering. What it brings up for me is my own selfishness and inconsistency. This is not a bad thing as this is where we need to go for humanity to heal - together.

It is quite the statement to say you have observed someone for 15 years and their love is unwavering. There are many people, myself included who would say the same about Serge Benhayon, and so we all know that is also possible for us too, for if one can live that way, so can everyone.

Often I don't think or mention that Serge Benhayon is a normal man, because it seems to me the most normal and natural thing to live like Serge. But of course I am aware of the fact that most people including myself don't live his way as consistent and dedicated although it really seems to be our nature to do so. To have someone as a living example who lives such a deep love against the propensity of all others is worth celebrating every day.

'There are very few weeks in a lifetime that most people would look back and say “that was a defining week in my life, it changed everything”. Perhaps when a child is born, or a death of a close one, or other such major life event,'
When I consider the massive life changing event of when my children were born, which kicked my whole life out of it's comfortable orbit, and when a close family member died, which did the same in a different way, your relating the UK retreat to such huge life events starkly shows the phenomenal shift that occurred at this retreat.
There is no doubt that this is so, and the opportunity and support that has been given for us to make these massive shifts is readily there and absolutely accessible. It is then for us to live it or not.

The exposure of the what is not and how it works showed me the game I have been allowing in my life. I got to see the ridiculousness of saying no to my shinning light - for anything. Saying no to everything that is NOT me makes so much sense. Why is it that I can so easily make myself wrong at the drop of a hat and yet not say a very simple YES to love?

What is to observe about spending time with Serge Benhayon is indeed how life will never be the same. Once you have experienced true love in your life, you can never ever really give up on life again. ...You still could, but the self-made creation of it would be quite obvious. Meeting Serge calls out for taking responsibility in life. That might be the reason why comparatively few people come to meet him, although he invites us all so lovingly.

But at least there is now a choice of a different way to live whereas before Serge Benhayon life seemed a drudgery something to get through as best as one could. Serge Benhayon gives everyone a sense of who they truly are everything after that is then a choice of whether to expand that sense or not.

After a weekend Sacred Esoteric Healing course with Serge Benhayon I can honestly state that I feel exactly the same. There is no corner of my life and my whole world that is now not being seen from a totally different perspective. The ability to raise my awareness, to connect and communicate, to be open and transparent and to have the ability to read the situations in front of me, these are all given and how do you say no to such gifts?

What is amazing about what Serge Benhayon presents simply by how he lives let alone what is presented in the courses, workshops and retreats is that while it is life changing, rocking and completely flipping over the boat - it feels the most natural way to be.

'Gone is the daily grind,' is amazing beyond belief. Growing up I always wondered surely this can't be it? Even the highest successes of the world people aspire to felt empty. Serge Benhayon reminded me there is a purpose that is harmony with the universe, the everything that inspires and is filled with wonder and we are a part of this. So no longer is there a daily grind unless I make it so, unless I disconnect to the flow we are united and held by. So even the simplest hello can express the love we are all from and are.

That is what confirms so much the truth Serge Benhayon is walking on earth. It is not just the amazing presentation and teachings he delivers. It is also the way you see him relate to all people. The way he talks to you or to his wife or others all is having that same quality of love felt clearly by all who is willing to feel love again. People lwho teach can talk a lot and share a lot from what they know but this is a very different level. This is a lived quality which my mother lately expressed so beautifull when she came with me to a workshop of Serge.

'The way I see myself, the understanding I have of who I am' - We are so used to seeing ourselves in a narrow band of focus, this almost two dimensional being that gets up, goes to work, comes home, goes to bed, gets up...... What my sense is now from the UK retreat knocks that into touch. The daily grind is no such thing, the retreat has blown that out of the water, along with all the other ideas and beliefs I had about my life. It is the grandness of it all that is now exposed, there is no hiding from it. I can choose to play dumb, but that universal grandness remains regardless.

Bringing life alive - so true and so deeply profound. When I consider what normal used to be for me, I was depressed, unhealthy, overweight, anxious - in short I could not feel the point of life.

I just reurn form my time in the UK, The Lighthouse participating in the Retreat hold by Serge Benhayon. The teachings are incredible powerfull by its deliver quality. I can feel how the love emanating through Serge brings out all truth. It directly resonates with the truth I know within me. It is asking me to look at the lies I am living which I didn't see before because I liked to keep it misty so I could stay in my comfort. Serge offers a new truthfull way of living that serves humanity.This demand to perform I know very well as i was been asked to be a model from a very young age like about 4 years old. The good thing is that you see on all the pictures that i was staying me even there where so many demands. I was always observing how the people behaved strange and wanting things from me which didn't feel true. later about the age of 12 I started to fullfill the demands of life to fit in as before i didn't care so much to fit in. Sonwe can see how it is always a choice how we decide to respond on what is coming our way no matter the age. It is our attachment to belong, to be accepted even it is the most important thing we stay ourselves and to feel how amazing that is and let nobody be an exuse to go away from ourselves again. Serge offers us a new way of Livingness which is in service for humanity and not just for,ourselves.

Looking at all the ways we can choose to dull our awareness is very revealing, how much we can let our connection go, how racy we become and how much we protect ourselves to not have someone see right through us, all of these are exposed if we can allow the opportunity the retreat offers to go deeper in life. We are so used to playing it small so another isn\t rattled by our grandness, and yet we can choose to stand out from the crowd and give the crowd something else to consider - to show there is a way to live that is different.

Serge Benhayon has a way of saying exactly what you need to hear for your own personal evolutionary path. In my understanding I have come to know that he is able to do this by reading the energetic qualities and expressions that we all have. But what's even more beautiful, is how he passes this on through workshops and courses, never keeping this kind of ability to himself, empowering everyone to read energy just as astutely as he ever could. And what happens thereafter, is a ripple effect of many people reading eachother, saying exactly what needs to be said for us all to evolve.

I love what you share Heather. Life was monotonous for me once upon a time and I was always seeking something different. I moved around a lot, changed jobs, travelled...it was not predictable externally but on the inside it was extremely predictable. How I was and how I dealt with things was the same day in day out. These days it is the complete opposite. I do the same things mostly everyday - I have a stable job (in fact I run my own company), my son is at school, I live in the suburbs...but on the inside each day is different. I regularly attend Universal Medicine events, listen to audios by Serge or Natalie Benhayon and read a few pages of on of Serge's purple books. One page alone is enough to make me ponder on how I am living, let alone a weekend workshop or 5 day retreat. There are regular events in my life that inspire me to be more, shake me up and I am constantly evolving.

With this knowing and learning to trust this I am cutting through layers and layers of consciousness that I have taken on that is the opposite and has created a separation from my essence.

A new normal, "He is without doubt a man of the people, he lives what he presents, he is by all accounts a “normal’ man, and yet his version of normal offers us all a new normal, one that brings life alive." I have found it empowering to consider a new normal in my life....freedom from the restrictions we place on ourselves, so that we are able to discern what is truly ' normal' for us rather than what we 'think' is normal. I have spent many years conforming to what I think is normal, is done me no good, a new normal is evolving...I will see where it takes me...

Serge Benhayon inspires because he lives what he says and inspires this choice in others "...so that each of us can know through our own connection to ourselves who we really are." Real empowerment, I feel I have built the foundation from which I express, the connection I have within is something that I have said 'Yes' to, to a certain degree, it is something that I now know I can build and reclaim through my choices. Leadership inspiration and singing his light and though this people can make the choice to look within.

Heather its quite amazing that "Such giant questions as “who am I” and “what is the purpose of life” are not only answered, but revealed as simple first steps" are so normal and so easily part of the retreat days. I deeply value and appreciate having the opportunity to take 5 days a year and really deepen my connection to myself, my relationships and humanity as a whole. I've heard others comment that the retreat is not like what you would consider one to be, its very very expansive and provides a point of deep connection with the universe and everything that is going on in the world. At the same time bringing a renewed purpose to life.

You mention that we don't know the full extent of what Serge is doing for humanity, for the world, for our future. I sometimes try to ponder this and my mind ends up almost combusting. It reminds me of when I was a kid and was being taught about the planets and universe - the scale of it all was just too much for me to get my head round. I kinda feel the same with Serge.

Serge Benhayon has brought a deeper understanding that who we are is not limited and the love we are and that we come from, keeps unfolding until we reclaim ourselves as children of God. As I have embraced this, I have received clarity about how far away from this truth humanity has shifted and there is great compassion and purpose with living as this becomes clear. But with this understanding, Serge offers immense support to honour ourselves and our true expression of love, so becoming an instrument of change feels natural and simple.

- When i moved in to live with the loving relationship of my life
- When I first met Serge Benhayon
- When I decided to put into practice The Way Of The Livingness and
felt the difference that living this way makes in my life
- When I attend each and every retreat, healing course and workshop
presented by Serge Benhayon
- When I had a swim session with Simone Benhayon
These are some of the key defining moments in my life, and of them all, choosing The Way Of The Livingness stands out. Thank you Serge for presenting this way of life, for it changed my life. My own choices saved me from living a life of emptiness and misery- That is fot me to deeply appreciate.

It is a great point raised Heather that such questions like "Who am I" are a starting point for an ever expanding understanding of life's meaning and purpose. Until being presented with this possibility through what Serge Benhayon was presenting, I saw such questions quite flatly. Even though I knew there to be a hidden meaning, the question seemed unapproachable despite much Yoga experience and accomplishment on a physical level, a practice which classically offers such questions. It was Serge’s understanding and inspiration to bring the inquiry into the realm of feeling instead of thought and to not dodge or be fearful of the huge ocean of feeling available, that made the difference for me.

"who am I", "what is the purpose of life". I don't believe that there isn't a person alive who doesn't ask these questions at some point in their lives. I certainly did and came across all sorts of answers or suggestions or paths. But it wasn't until I met Serge Benhayon that I started to find the true answers. And then it is about courage, commitment, appreciation and making the moves - each one of which slowly unravels the onion, bringing us back to the core - our equal souls of abundant wisdom and love.

Serge Benhayon lights up the room when he walks in to it, because of all the steps he has taken leading up to that moment when he crosses the threshold of that space. It is easy to look at this and wonder how he does it, and to think that he is the only one who can do it. But in reality this is the offered truth for everyone to see, that no matter where you are you bring every foot step you have ever made with you, and that you have the power to dictate the quality of each and very one of those foot prints.

I know I have many times and Meeting Serge Benhayon has given me the answers to those question and many more. And the way he presents what he knows is not in the arrogance of I know more than you so listen up buddy, but is incredibly open and humble with what he knows to be true beyond any doubt. He doesn't ask you to believe him you rediscover truth for yourself and then you own that truth and no one can take it away from you.

The way Serge Benhayon has presented that work can be full of joy and never just a boring grind has had a massive impact for me. Committing to life and to the inevitability of having to work and making it playful brings a resourcefulness as well as care and attention to detail. It has meant that I never have to put my body under much stress at all and can always appreciate how the quality I move in translates into the quality I work in.

Serge Benhayon is unique as a presenter in that he says it how it is, but never tells you what to do. So every person then has a choice to feel for themselves what is true for them, and hence make their own choices. But all of this is with the support of one person in the world who walks his talk, and is willing to then say it how it is.

He has an understanding of people that is beyond imagination and I can not help but smile every time I see him as it is simply a warm heart I walk up to or meet every time I see him. This is no rara but a simply fact of how I feel and the truth I know that he lives, by his movement, walk, talk, books, workshops, writings and so on and so on.

As all the time and effort in anything he does, he does with his full heart knowing that it will serve mankind, and that this itself serves equally him. The power of magnitude that Serge Benhayon lives by is palpable in his eyes, movement and voice. As we know we can feel everything. Hence we can feel if there is love being lived in one's body or not. This loving relationship I know have with my own body more and more is inspired by that which I had felt in the body and livingness of Serge Benhayon from day One.

Serge is a man of grace and truth that helps humanity in whatever stumble and way - to come back to who they truly are - without any stumbling back or resistance to facing reality and being part (and committing) to a whole. By whole meaning the universal alignment we aught to be connected to and are from. That there is a way to life that sustains that connection and live life. Yet a very inspiring way to be in the so temporal life on earth it is asking us to be. But simply having seen One person life this truth and connection on earth. Simply tells us it is possible. As it only takes One to life One. By the second One meaning = the brotherhood of love we come from. And the many people after that have already followed to life in the same united Way.

You would have a break from them but they would always return, often with more of an intensity. Not only have these questions not come back after meeting with Serge Benhayon but many more that were playing around in me have been answered.

I was once asked if Serge Benhayon has a lot of charisma. I was about to say yes, but something stopped me. I said 'no, not really'. The way the question was posed made me feel that the image this person held of Serge was of a persuasive character, intent on charming others to align to his way of thinking. This is not Serge at all, not in any way. He is a truly loving man, open and transparent in his dealings with everyone - and because he is this way, he has no need for this kind of charisma and nor does he seek to persuade. Don't get me wrong, he is a very engaging man who is a joy to be around - but charisma is not a word I would use to describe Serge Benhayon.

I have to agree Heather. If I look back on my own life, over the last 7-8 years my life has become more ordinary with a greater commitment to the everyday things. But there is certainly much less of a grind. I can't say at this point there is none and that's okay for it's not about being perfect through life, but learning and being willing to learn with every moment and every day. This in itself changes what life is and this willingness to see life in this way removed the grind. Through what Serge presents and the consistency in what he lives is such a great example of how we can be.

"Through his dedication to humanity, and commitment to living a life of service Serge Benhayon is a world leader.
​This may not be known by the world yet, but that does not diminish the value of what he presents."

Indeed so. An even some try to dismiss all Serge presents others are confirming strongly the divine he brings. Not just my life changed also from many otehrs around me because I changed in such a beautiful way more back to love. Even I had the beautiful experience that someone asked me about the workshops I attend in the UK with Universal Medicine so I start to say Serge his name as the presenter of it. On the moment I said his name the person was in shock with tears in his eyes and said to me in a way he almost couldn't speak from the beauty he felt...how much love he felt from this man.

'He is without doubt a man of the people,..' The love of Serge Benhayon for humanity is never ending and he loves people more than we love ourselves and it is always coming from the depth he knows love to be and lives for himself and at the same time for all of us.

I have also been to many of the retreats Serge Benhayon presents, and I can say first hand that there are amazing revelations dropped into every retreat. It continues to build and develop, there is always something more to understand about ourselves and each other - it is a hugely impactful event that offers absolute support to everyone who attends.

'his version of normal offers us all a new normal, one that brings life alive. ' And that captures the absolute joy of what Serge Benhayon offers to us all, a new normal, a simple normal, one where nothing is mundane, and life is full without any rara or need for something to look forward to, life is each moment is cherished, and offers the opportunity to love and express the truth of who we are.

What Serge Benhayon presents is life changing. But not in the ‘sell everything and live in the mountains’ kinda way. My life has changed beyond recognition from what it was 6 years ago and yet throughout I still take out the trash, go to work, pay my bills. The difference is in the quality of life which is now more joyful and lovely than it was prior to knowing Serge.

A true world leader does not lead by dictates but by virtue of his or her lived way – a reflection for us all.

Great testimonial Heather. To be honest, I have often said about a Retreat or training of Serge Benhayon "this was the life defining moment in my life" and there is another Retreat, or training that takes it even deeper! Amazing.

Yes, through Serge Benhayon's dedication to humanity thousands of us students have dramatically changed our lives, myself included, 'Through his work hundreds, if not thousands of people have dramatically changed their lives, including myself. Gone is the daily grind, and instead there is joy at work, loving friendships and family, and appreciation for the beauty of the world.'

I dearly love, with all my heart, the way that Serge Benhayon presents on the fact that we can discover the answers to all of our most biggest questions simply by living a practical normal life but from an inner-most connected place within ourselves. I find this to be so empowering and simple and freeing, for life to be as it is with all of the answers inside - no need to seek or search, just re-connect and all is there to be yours once again.

'Enter Universal Medicine and Serge Benhayon with ground breaking insights that stop this daily existence in its tracks. ' - Heather that is totally it, the moment you walk in to your first Universal Medicine event what ever that may be you can't deny and feel how powerful and life changing it is. Whether you walk away saying yes that's totally it or if you walk away saying ah no not for me, what you hear and feel you can't undo and we are presented with a level of multidimensionality that is so vast yet presented by Serge Benhayon in the most practical and easy to understand way.

Every movement Serge Benhayon makes is not for 'self' but for humanity. Serge lives and moves in a way where he can access great truth and wisdom and share it with others so they too can live more connected to their Soul and experience the joy and riches that this brings.

'He is by all accounts a “normal" man, and yet his version of normal offers us all a new normal, one that brings life alive.' beautifully said Heather. Serge Benhayon certainly is the reflection that allows us to see the greatness in all of us, he inspires me to be the same living example for others.

Heather these weeks with Serge are invaluable. They help me and in that all others. I've come to understand that "our time" is not really "our time" and that the way I choose to live, the love and care I choose has the power to transform humanity.. that all comes from a week retreat with Serge. highly recommended.

"I am forever in debt to Serge Benhayon, and I gladly pay that debt every day simply by being who I truly am, for that is all that is needed." Serge has said that the greatest joy he has in life is seeing us living life from who we truly are, his often simple words were, Be love.

Loved reading your testimonial Heather. Life defining moments, that is what Serge Benhayon offers constantly to everyone of us. If we are open to it. And then after THE defining moment, there is another, this keeps on deepening, if we are open to it. And sometimes I resist, but then in the end I open again, and take the next offering in.

Thank God that the daily grind is gone from my life. A crushing existence I thought was the be all and end all until Serge Benhayon came into my life. He's never done anything to make my life better, simply offered inspiration for me to change my life myself.

The love of Serge Benhayon is such that he sees even “healthy function” in a life without joy or exuberance as a form of illness simply because the person is living less than their true potential.

“who am I” and “what is the purpose of life?” are two big questions I had asked myself many times before I followed a very strong impulse to attend my first workshop with Serge Benhayon in 2005. And it didn’t take long before they began to be answered; in those two life-changing days, and many more as equally life-changing days since then. Just when I am sure that I have come to understand all of life, Serge goes even deeper and more of the magic and the joy of life is revealed and ready to be lived. It doesn’t matter if it’s an hour, a day or a week spent with Serge, every single moment is price-less.

"There are very few weeks in a lifetime that most people would look back and say “that was a defining week in my life, it changed everything”. And here we have a man who presents in a way that each time we meet or go to a presentation, we can say that - for each time he presents from his lived way of being, and that is at such a level that it inspires so much people are able to make different choices. No one saves us, we save ourselves, but it is that inspiration that supports us to see there is another way to live.

Serge has brought such deep meaning to life, everything can have the most exquisite purpose, even doing the dishes. Life lived with soul means that every moment can offer a richness based on the quality of the energy we are connected to and expressing from, and understanding the purpose of offering this quality back to the whole we are a part of is another level of joy.

"He works not for accolades, but so that each of us can know through our own connection to ourselves who we really are" This is so rare, so many people do things just for recognition. From Serge I can feel his deep deep love for humanity and love for us all, when he presents his intelligence is other worldly.

'The way I see myself, the understanding I have of who I am, and the lens I have not only of my personal history, but of the world as a whole is now the widest of wide angles with insights beyond anything thought possible.' Since meeting Serge myself my new awareness of myself and the world has changed my relationship with it entirely too and it continues to deepen. The joy is that we don't get to a certain point and feel like we have cracked it, we get to a certain point where love and joy are the norm and then we get to deepen our awareness of what this means.

Even on webcast days it helps reset what is 'normal life'. The presentations are gorgeous and inspiring but the workshops and group work really are beautiful. To have such people in life is beautiful.
