New England Institute for Substance Abuse Studies Healing the Soul Course Comments Course was more than expected. I felt I had reached into my soul and cared for it and discovered strengths, the next steps, both personally and professionally. Will take back home with me new hope, direction and resources that will affect myself, my family and my clients. Joy's knowledge, openness and energy were very special and made the course. Excellent. Nice prep, useful handouts. Confident and informed instructor. Wonderful! Extremely helpful to my personal growth and professional depth and awareness. Want it to be 24 hr rather than 16! Thanks for handouts! Dr. Koenig was very well informed with much enthusiasm and self realization. Very well organized, don't change a thing. Lots of handouts - thank you! This is a most excellent experience and it happened with perfect timing with my need and area of growing. I had set a goal: To find out where I stand in my recovery process and believe I have achieved that - and will continue to over time. We appreciated the handouts. It should be a full week - there wasn't enough time. The handouts were excellent along with the teacher and information. Excellent presentation, great overview, well chosen experiential work - wish it could be a 24 hour course. I would like to see Tai Chi offered in the morning as yoga was this time. Top Notch - Uplifting Experience. The most sound of my experience here this week. Dr. Joy Koenig is a Light of Love, Hope and Healing. This experience blew the boundaries off of my expectations. I would recommend the course be 24 hours. I think this should be a 24 hour course. Joy was great, her nurturing loving way allowed the group to become connected and work together. It was a wonderful experience and opened my mind to several new ideas. Dr. Koenig was full of energy and knowledge that kept us all awake during the course of the classes. It really brought a special bond among the students. I enjoyed very much learning a little bit of Tai Chi. It was a wonderful experience. The course had more than enough content to be a 24 hour course. Perhaps adding yoga would enhance the experience even more. I am going to use this class to apply towards my college credits. I gained a lot of knowledge, met people and enjoyed the spiritual contact in the session. Wish it lasted longer. Very impressive - the extra handouts and the binders filled with copied materials, and the work put into the presentation and experience by Joy Koenig. Terrific, absolutely great! Very informative and enriching course. Dr. Koenig comes across as really knowing her subjects and wants to spread the word of what these various techniques can do for you. Really enjoyed the connection to music, and massage and music. Beyond my expectations.
