 "I want to take this opportunity to thank Gary for the "sweat lodge" week-end that the Many Horses Foundation put on for the kids. I observed and felt a very peaceful spirit amongst the group. Most of all, I noticed a change in my son. I had not seen such a relaxed and open expression on his face for a very long time. After a private session with Gary, my son and I are making headway in changing our relationship for the better. There is no way to describe how much this means to me. I had truly feared that I was losing my son. I had tried any number of different approaches, including psychologists, the court system and an out patient drug program. The spiritual, honest approach Gary uses rang true for both my son and myself and we are finally moving in a positive direction. I can't thank you enough."- Pam, GA "Gary has helped me to open my heart. He has challenged me to move through life's challenges and gifts with courage and trust." -Dan ,Professor of Zoology, LaVerne College, Claremont, CA " Gary FourStar's dream to teach others how to live in balance with the natural world no matter what color their skin, has opened my world to beauty , passion, and a life worth living. I am grateful beyond words to him and his teachers for having the courage and endurance to step out and share these ways. My goal is to focus beyond myself, to help others. To giveaway what has been given to me. how that looks I'm not sure but I trust Creator will show me the way. Anne, Ga. Slowly and in our own ways, much of my immediate family, wife and children, are working within the circle and are growing together in a way where we communicate and interact in a more loving, caring and understanding way. Our quality of life has improved as has our relationships, and mental health is stronger.... Chris , Kennesaw,Ga When I first met Gary, as much as I hate to admit it , I was close to suicidal. My fire and passion to live was a smoldering heap of ashes. I trusted no one. I had learned over the years to keep my 'self' guarded and walled off for self preservation I squelched the numbness of living with drinking. My inside soul was screaming to live life fully - but I could not see a way to do that. My life seemed to be someone else's life- but not who I was. I was hidden inside a deep cavern of the outer robot life. Slowly, I began to let myself live again. It has been both exhilarating and painful. I learned to look inside myself and get to the core of issues that are up for me. Learning the "earth ways" Gary presented was like my soul was coming home....Ricci, Kennesaw, Ga At the time in my life when I met you , I was miserable. I felt empty. I had low self esteem , no sense of self. I was numbing myself with alcohol and letting fear run my life. Over the past 11 years, through the workshops, fasts, sweats and ceremonies all that has changed. Let me say it has not been easy. I had to learn to get our of my own way and to trust, trust, trust. Trust Creator and trust my own knowing. This is constant work for me... Linda, Ga The most powerful of all the teaching for me has been the
ceremony of the lodge. Every lodge is different, every lodge is
healing and they are beyond words. I have come to face my fear and my anger
in the lodge and grown to where I don't live in as much fear as before. I am
beginning to learn to pray. ...Ron, Contractor, Villa Rica |
