“My life has undergone major transformation since I started working with Laura. She is truly exceptional, both as an analyst and as a teacher. While some people have knowledge or wisdom or experience or deep intuition, Laura has them all. In addition, perhaps most importantly, she keeps her eye on the prize: getting to the core of who you truly are and addressing the conditions that keep you from living from that place. I can’t recommend Laura highly enough! ”

“This was one of the most well considered and presented trainings I have had on ethics over the years.”

“I have had a long struggle with doubt. After attending Laura Lewis Thayer’s workshop, I feel a profound sense of peace. I no longer feel the intuitive/spiritual side of me is at war with my scientific mind. Lewis Thayer’s elegant articulation of the dynamic relationship between the realms of the imperial and spiritual world changed my relationship to doubt.  Much gratitude. ”

“Laura’s approach to ethics from a centered, conscious awareness of inward connection to one’s deepest quiet center which radiates to our outer connectedness to other living beings and the world around us is both powerful and energizing. She calls forth a conscious, archetypal standpoint from which to move into the world.

Laura calls us to remember the archetypal map we have been given that can guide us toward repair and wholeness within our self, our community, society at large, the world community and towards the planet.

Economics, both individual and within social structures can be reimagined and refashioned to value, through practice, that which has formerly been exploited, taken for granted, demanded for free, ignored or silenced.”

“Laura is a truly gifted teacher. She weaves a rich tapestry of ideas and images together in her talks, and is equally comfortable improvising based on the questions students bring. Her depth of knowledge in Chinese medicine, Jungian archetype, psychology, energy healing, and somatic movement infused me with new ideas that I continue to turn around in my my head and feel in my body. I have tasted only the tiniest sip of the nourishing bone broth for the soul that Laura has to offer. I look forward to continuing to learn more. ”

“Thank you, helpful, inspiring.
The Rainmaker story will stay with me.”

“I took Laura’s workshop and it opened up new vistas to explore and to experience. Her emphasis on energy dynamics through psyche and body was especially helpful. Our bodily experience of archetypes in their ever intangible and yet powerful effect on us is a challenging topic to teach. I am grateful to Laura for excelling at it—bringing it to our focus of how to stay tuned to our body reaction and how understand its language while meditating on primordial life patterns—archetypes. The experience of Laura’s workshop was deep, moving, inspiring and gratifying. ”

“I enjoyed this presentation so much. It was scary and soothing at the same time.”

“This was such an enjoyable and informative offering...I savored it at length and watched/listened to many segments more than once. Such a rich, depth exploration of psyche on personal and collective levels, at such a powerful, poignant, and anxiety-laden time. Thank you so much for this powerful offering.”

“I so appreciated the breadth of this workshop on ethics and Laura’s presentation from the heart. Somehow I left the workshop with hope in troubled times!”

“I was pleasantly surprised, due to the online format, by how engaged I remained throughout this presentation. Deeply engaging, thought-provoking and energizing in terms of sensing myself in a good place with support from Laura’s talk for chosen ways of re-centering and re-energizing.”

“I appreciated Laura Lewis Thayer’s depth of scholarship, breadth of knowledge and wisdom. I hope we have a chance to hear from her again soon.”

“Thank you for a most stimulating presentation!!”

“Remarkable presentation!!!”

“[This program] is like stepping into a current of quiet wisdom and shared humanity. Laura brings such depth—her understanding of the five elements, woven delicately with psychological insight creates a tapestry that speaks to both the soul and the mind. In her presence, learning becomes an act of remembering, of finding balance between knowing and simply being. Even through the glow of a screen, the space she holds feels tender, grounded, and alive—a sanctuary where meaning unfolds.

What moves me most is the community that gathers here—a circle of hearts connected through honesty and care. Within this safe, sacred space, stories intertwine and silence becomes its own kind of language. Together we explore, unravel, and root more deeply into who we are, carried by Laura’s gentle guidance and unwavering wisdom. [Our group] continues to be a place where growth feels like grace, and connection feels like coming home. ”

“Working with Laura has helped me break down the walls that were separating me from a truly magical world! ”

“This course couldn’t be more relevant!” Laura exposes some of our most unconscious assumptions, and shows how they lead humanity to so many of the most painful injustices in our world today. She counters that with a model that nature provides, giving us a path to a different kind of future. Ideal for professionals and lay people alike!”

“There were so many aspects of this workshop that were inspiring and challenging in the most positive way. I appreciate the naming of evil and the naming of changes and action to move toward the bridge to the future.”

“Being a relative novice to Jungian teachings, along with the fact I would need to travel an hour each way to attend Laura’s class, I was initially unsure whether The First Journey class was a good idea for me. Any doubt immediately dissolved on day one. Laura is a wise and gifted teacher who pulls everyone in - no matter where you are - and after each class I spent my hour commute home feeling enlightened and inspired with a gift of “understanding” deeper than I have ever felt before. I continue to refer back to class notes, and the valuable body-centered tools Laura provided us, for inspiration, guidance and growth. It all made so much sense! Like putting the pieces of a puzzle together. I am grateful I was led to Laura and her compassionate wisdom. It’s no wonder Laura Lewis Thayer is in demand to lecture and teach at locations around the globe ~ we are SO fortunate to have her in our midst! ”

“The variety of source materials and the variety of teaching methods was enjoyable and well thought out.”

“Beautiful balance of showing us how real the horrors of our times are, and calling on the Spirit of the Depths, and our connections with each other to get us through. Technology amazingly smooth. Thank you to everyone who brought this to us!!”

“I really enjoyed this presentation. It helped orient us in a disorienting time, and brings a soul perspective that is much needed. Thanks!”

“I appreciate Laura’s Jungian training and also her knowledge of Eastern traditions and practices.”

“Very well done. Thank you!!”

“Laura is a brilliant unifier of the worlds of physical science and Jungian psychology.  Her presentation is full of joy and heart, as well as fascinating information.  ”

“Fine presentation.”

“Insightful and informative presentation. Thank you for making it available.”
