"I am deeply grateful for my experience in HE II. It is a rich course with so many opportunities for engagement and you can tailor it for where you are at so that it is the most supportive for you and your needs. I have found it incredibly healing to have a safe space to share and be witnessed and to be able to offer that witnessing to others as well. This course will support you in living an embodied life fueled by your heart. I highly recommend it."

-- Reed

“This has been a truly Transformational experience, with so many insights and so much healing. I am deeply and fundamentally changed by the teachings and the content, as well as by the partner practices that were included and held within the container of this course. I have learned so much both by the teachings Jeannie has given through the classes, but also by witnessing her way of interacting and holding space for the other participants.” 

--Marit Nygard

Personalized Commitment

This course is a deeper dive into the teachings and requires commitment. 

Having a group of people “all in” makes for solid support, bonding and transformation. 

This means you will do your best to follow through on the required parts of the course and speak up if you’re having trouble or have questions. The course also has the flexibility for each person to craft their own unique commitment and to revise it as necessary. 

Registering for the course means that:

  • You commit to participate in and pay for all 8 months.
  • You commit to reading about and understanding the requirements of the course and asking questions as you need information.
  • You commit to following all the guidelines put forth in the materials.
  • You commit to view or listen to the monthly online class at the start of each month.
  • You commit to attend (or view soon after) the monthly live Q&As with Jeannie.
  • You commit to not mention or refer to the shares of other participants, whether those occur in Q&As, small groups or in the Facebook group.
  • You commit to formulate a commitment that fits you and to update it to stay current with what you are discovering about yourself and your engagement with the course.
  • You commit to share your commitment on the private Facebook group as you formulate or change it.
  • You commit to share monthly in the Facebook group for the duration of the course, even if it’s just “Hi.”
  • If you join an optional share group, you commit to attend all meetings, on time, for the whole meeting, with one miss allowed in case of emergency or conflict.
  • Engagement with the library is up to your discretion, ambition and availability. There's a generous amount of material!
  • You commit to attend from start to finish each daylong and retreat.


Through honoring our shared commitments, you will discover things about yourself and learn to be with and bring mercy to the places in you that rise when you seek to fully engage. There will be plenty of support and mercy along the way to assist you with full engagement.

There will be support for people to really "work" this course and that is primarily what the course is for. However, some exceptions will be made for those who would like to engage the material in a less intense way--these exceptions will likely be for those who have been involved in the work for some time.

"A powerful course for personal exploration and transformation with a teacher who understands the territory and meets each participant fully."

-- Evan Winslow Smith
