What Can SAW Do For You?

The Purpose of SAW

The purpose of SAW is to permanently clear away self-defeating patterns at their root, not just the symptoms, and replace them with self-fulfilling new behaviors. The focus is to allow you to safely express yourself and release your repressed feelings; especially anger, sadness and fear, and heal the damage of past traumas - in a safe environment with two professional counselors who provide individualized attention.

Most people will agree: Health is the most important aspect of life and without it, little else matters. Yet in spite of the enormous sums spent in trying to REGAIN one's health, most people spend very little time, effort, or money MAINTAINING their most valuable asset.

Exercising and eating nutritional foods can heal our bodies. Yet, the most crucial healing anyone can experience is emotional healing. You can not THINK your way out of pain that you FELT your way into. 'Depression and anger are as detrimental to your health as smoking! Self-Awareness Weekend (SAW) offers a safe, non-judgemental place to release buried feelings, so you may heal and move on.

Anger Management Certificate of Attendance for 25 hours is provided upon completion of the Weekend.

Why is SAW Unique?

It is unique in that it condenses one to five years of individual or group therapy into one weekend, with strong, sincere and caring individualized attention to each participant's needs in a safe, supportive environment. Each participant has the opportunity to identify and eliminate a major core self-defeating problem. SAW is time and cost effective for today's busy lifestyles.

Often with individual and group therapy, a person will just get started on a problem when it's time for the session to end. SAW provides opportunities for deep exploration, processing and completion out of which comes extraordinary personal growth. It is an emotional experience of profound healing and personal growth.

Cost and What it Includes

The cost is $1250 per person. A $150 non-refundable deposit is required at registration to secure your place. The balance of $1100 is due at least a week before your weekend. You may deposit more than $150 if you wish.

Discount: When full payment is received at least two weeks in advance of your weekend, you will receive a $55 discount, for a net cost of $1195.

Payment Plan: An option that is available to you is a payment plan. Call Andrea at 866-204-6384 to work out payment arrangements with her. We do NOT want anyone to miss this opportunity because of issues with money. We will work this out with you.

The Self-Awareness Weekend is meant to give you benefits that will last for the rest of your life. The cost of this counseling program includes 25 hours of direct contact with two professional counselors who give you all the individualized time you need and are committed to make sure that you have the breakthroughs and results you came to achieve. It is hard to put a price limit on that.

And, where else is it possible to get the equivalent of 1-5 years of this level of effective counseling in this short amount of time. Consider that counselors today are charging about $100-$150 an hour. Twenty five hours of direct counseling at $100 an hour would cost $2,500. Attending SAW saves you $1,300 as well as you receive the input of two professional leaders instead of only one and you have the opportunity to receive phenomenal results. In Japan, redecison therapists are charging anywhere from $150-$500 an hour. Redecision therapy is one of the modalities used the professional counselors at SAW.

Accommodations

The Self Awareness Weekend is held at the La Quinta Inn located in Sacramento, California. Participants from out of the area may stay at the La Quinta Inn for a reduced rate of $78 per night for one person. This cost is not included in the cost of the Weekend. To make reservations, call the La Quinta Inn and tell them you are reserving for the Self Awareness Weekend, and you will be given the reduced rate.

We highly recommend that you stay through Sunday night if at all possible to allow yourself time to rest and heal.

Transportation

Those who are flying in for the weekend will fly to the Sacramento International Airport. Please plan for your flight to arrive by 3:00 pm on Friday to allow plenty of time to get to the hotel and settled before the Weekend begins.

SuperShuttle provides shuttle service directly to the La Quinta Inn for approximately $19 one way, so you do not need to rent a car. The trip is approximately 30 to 45 minutes long. Reservations are not required when you arrive; simply claim your luggage and proceed to the SuperShuttle ground transportation booth located in front of the restaurant building between the two main terminals. A Guest Service Representative will arrange SuperShuttle transportation to your destination. At that time, it is recommended that you reserve your return transportation from the hotel to the airport on Sunday evening or Monday, if you have not already done so.

NOTE: It is important that you attend the entire Weekend. Please arrange your transportation so that you arrive on time for Friday, and do not leave before completion on Sunday evening. Again, we highly recommend you stay Sunday night and return home on Monday.

NOTE: If you are driving from the San Francisco/Bay Area on Friday, it is advisable to leave by at least 12:30 pm. If you leave by that time, it is an easy 1 hour, 45 min. drive. After that time, give yourself an extra 1-2 hours driving time in order to arrive by the 6:00 pm starting time for the Weekend.
