​I spent the winter in Annie’s dharma course--it’s here the big questions are asked and answered. Here I slow down and return to self: mind, body, and spirit. My soul wakes up! As a homemaker, a creative, a professor of domestic education! Annie's dharma course brings me to this place where I am able to be in acceptance as I stand at this intersection between the gift and the times, and truly let go of the fruits! I turn my wounds and my challenges into the light. I find myself giving name to my dharma: MaMa M’s Broken Slices Turned Upcycled Goods. Mahalo Nui... Annie Barrett, you truly are an amazing teacher, yoga/Ayurved, life coach... A true vibrant soulful living human being...I am humbled to be your student.. Take the dharma course! You will be glad you did...it will be one of the greatest gifts you give yourself😇

Doing the Ignite Your Dharma course helped me get excited about doing my work in the world. I felt really supported and validated in clarifying important life goals. I also got to explore lots of different practical tools and techniques to support doing my work. Learning in the dynamic group setting allowed me to exchange ideas with other folks who were also interested in integrating their values with the practical realities of getting stuff done. By the time the course was complete, I felt more excited and competent about my dharma than I had in a long time - Thank you Annie and fellow Ignite Your Dharma students!

The most profound part of the Ignite Your Dharma course for me was delving deeply into the questions what are my gifts and what makes me come alive….and then discovering how to make changes in my own life to create more joy, meaning and connection. Annie asks just the right questions and provides a treasure trove of resources to help each student along the journey of discovery. With her own compassionate, joyful and grounded presence, Annie creates an environment of support and excitement around exploring big questions. As a direct result of taking this course, I first pinpointed activities which give me joy and then began doing more of them. The class also gave me concrete resources and ideas for creating a dharma-inspired future work life. I look forward to continuing to make new discoveries as I continue on this path. I’m grateful to Annie and my classmates for their support and encouragement, and to Annie for so fully embracing her own dharma to help us discover ours.
