Redefining Masculinity, by teacher and translator Pierre Voegeli

'Since doing the Process, my internal world has started to shift and there’s a greater sense of self-appreciation and gratitude in many of my days. For some strange reason, I’d always thought that loving myself would lead to selfishness and self-indulgence. What I realised during and after the Process is that it’s the other way round. Starting to love myself has led me to be more empathetic and kinder and generally more open and nicer to people. I’ve started voluntary work and I feel more connected with people and the world around me.

In practical terms it also led to some interesting changes. Before the Process, I usually started the day by checking my phone, reading the news, drinking an incredible amount of coffee and getting gradually more and more angry about the state of the world. Since the Process, my days start differently; I usually brew an Earl Grey tea, walk around the garden, read a book, do my Hoffman techniques or just sit and do nothing. The effect has been pronounced. I begin my days more peacefully and I have started to love and value this time of the day. It’s a new start not only to my day but to the next phase of my life.'

Living Life on Purpose, by ‘Cheer We Go’ founder Caro Syson

'If I think about how the Process impacted my life overall, I’d say I’m much better at self-acceptance and boundary setting now. I don’t allow other people to destroy my peace of mind. I set boundaries and keep people at arm’s length that I don’t feel are enhancing or adding to my life. I’m definitely still a work in progress, but the transformation since the Process has allowed me to be in my own space with much more confidence and clarity.

I think my ability to internally evaluate my emotional state and regulate it comes from a much more connected perspective. I no longer wonder why I have reactions to situations; I understand it now. I’ve also got these amazing tools at my fingertips. I can choose to stay in turmoil, or I can choose to use the tools.

Since completing the Process, I’ve met so many other Hoffies who are also using the tools we learned to get in touch with the real them and having the courage to put the authenticity out into the world, and that’s what it did for me. The Process is just the whole package – both nourishing and helpful. I’m now finally ‘Living life on Purpose’ – which has always been my motto, but which has only just begun to feel real and possible...'
