If you are not already familiar with Divine Openings in general, please read our home page and then return to this page to learn more about these most blissful life transformation retreats.

The 5-Day Silent Retreat is the most delicious of all Divine Openings experiences. By the end of it, your enlightenment process is highly accelerated (we don't call it "complete", only because we are never complete, in all of eternity). Your life will move with more Grace, ease, and flow than you ever imagined after these 5 days.

"Lola! Lola! Lola! It's now one month since my 5 day experience of preciousness and... Holy Guacamole, there is no real world! It's all made up! I am the Divine Presence that is creating it! I reclaim my spectacular, magnificent power now! While I had been doubting without, Grace has been doing within! Everyone and everything in my life is transforming and expanding in ways I could never have expected. What looked so dark turned out in a blink to be so very bright! Infinite Energy is busting out above and beyond the grid! There is nothing now but hope where there once was only desperation!" Yeeehaw, You know it! Gerrick (after the 5-Day Retreat)



Unlike other retreats, there is no "working on yourself".
The days of work and processing and struggle and toil are over once ascension has begun. Grace does the work, while you practice letting go and enjoying yourself. There is also no "returning to the real world". You'll ease into the knowing of Heaven On Earth, even with all the contrasts this dimension provides. Your consciousness expands into greater and greater bliss and peace.


"I've been flying so high ....
Thanks for all of your help!!!"   Vince



Some do the 5-Day so they can become Givers of Divine Openings, and some become catalysts for healing of physical problems. Others do it just for their own wellbeing. But you can't stop being that beacon once you're that lit up. Divine Perfection flows through you by Grace, independent of your human imperfections. Just by being you, whatever you "do" or don't do in the world, you'll point others to ascension (ascension is a parallel dimension to this one where things just work better). 

Jesus and a few saints, gurus, masters, and mystics throughout history gave direct infusions of Grace, or "healed" through Grace. Up until now, there were only a few who could do it, yet now, more and more ordinary people like you are becoming channels of Grace. Remember the prophesy, "You will do all that I do and more."

This is the time.
Now YOU can be initiated to give this Grace, initiate enlightenment, and heal with a simple touch. You don't have to "earn it", you just savor this lovely retreat, and let The Divine do the heavy lifting.

The five days culminates in a beautiful initiation ceremony that becomes a cherished lifetime memory. We usually invite locals to come receive Divine Openings from the just-initiated Givers on Day 5.

New initiates are amazed that they are "full power" immediately after their initiation, and the entire group of guests has powerful experiences.

The 5-Day Silent Retreats are called a "Honeymoon With The Divine" in Heaven On Earth. But this honeymoon never ends -- it actually expands and the Grace and blessings for yourself and others expand and deepen with time.

We give advanced types of Divine Openings
and deep processes in the 5-Day that we don't do in any of our other programs or spiritual retreats. Some of Lola's Divine Openings are like being embraced by the Divine Mother. One participant described it like this: "I reached the Stairway To Heaven."

The 5-Day is a rich, sensory, lovely experience. You will be completely relaxed and feel really good by day five, as you would after a perfect vacation, except this vacation is never over - it can last a lifetime if you stick with it. The stress doesn't ever have to come back. You'll have a deeper, more intimate experience with The Divine than you've ever had before, and it keeps getting better.


It's impossible to explain how so much can happen in five days, without talking, coaching, or working on yourself. Grace does most of the "work". Your job is to make the decision and commit. There really is nothing for you to do except let go. You simply show up, do some lovely activities, feel, and let The Divine do the heavy lifting. Things shift and transform miraculously, in yourself and your world (as if there were any difference). Your own everyday life accelerates after this course, and the people around you usually begin to reflect the change in your vibration immediately.

Ramon, Mindy, and Karen had already left when we took this group photo. We missed you at the post-retreat lunch!

Two weeks after her 5 Day Retreat: The other night I had a dream that a bobcat, lion and lioness, a panther, a domestic white and tan cat and many monkeys where at my house with more on they way. I heard bells again. I at first felt frightened, but felt somehow, that I was safe.  This dream was so vivid and colors so intense. (Soon after, I got a great job at a spa called Los Gatos, Spanish for cats.) I have been so busy... many phone calls of people wanting massages (it was dead before).  I am totally enjoying my life and business so much more.  Divine Openings and hanging out with you for 9 days has had me high and blissful, everyone keeps telling me I look different and that my aura has changed.  I have been playing more and not being so serious. Things are not only going great for me but my family seems to be flowing and more blissful.  We all laugh easier.  Thanks for letting me experience first hand and showing me how life could be.  Love and causeless bliss, Dinorah

My wife said to me that now whenever she has a complaint to direct towards me she remembers that she created me and so to complain would be meaningless. She went on to say that there really is so little to talk now about since we are really both creations of each others' Consciousness. And that she doesn't ever wish she took the blue pill instead of the red one (from The Matrix). Is that what you mean about the others in your life zooming ahead of you? Life's Brightest and Best, Gerrick

I've been absolutely buzzing at work. 
Nothing seems to phase me and everyone is doing great!  Words can't express or describe my experience last week but it was certainly a life-changing event.  I think you're right (of course you are) - it will keep going for a long time - probably the rest of this life and into many more.  Did a Divine Opening yesterday with a client ...profound. Love and hugs, Cathy

 



Catch the wave of Causeless Bliss
that hit the folks during the 5-Day Silent Intensive in April 2009 at City View Ranch in this 3 minute video. Be with the feelings that might come up that might not be so funny. Watch it again until you can laugh out loud.

You CAN go from where you are now to that kind of bliss and joy.
Working on yourself won't ever get you there. Letting go will.

Watch more videos and listen to audios of participants sharing experiences!


Lasting new friendships form in the silence and the last day is full of laughter and celebration.
An amazing variety of people take the 5 Day. In these photos are dentists, psychiatrist, doctor, nurses, writers, electrician, police officer, teachers, dancers, artists, horse trainer, engineer, internet entrepreneurs, corporate trainers, salon owner, chef, moms, retirees, massage therapists, military helicopter mechanic, arborist, and pharmacist.


Elizabeth demonstrates the hard work and rigorous austerities she had to endure during the 5 days.

 


Wow, this morning when waking  up I decided to give some remote Divine healings and Divine Openings. After giving a few I had to stop because I was overtaken with waves of joy and ecstasy flowing through my body ... whoooweee...  Divine openings are not only good to give, but also good to feel.   George, electrician and Divine Openings Giver, California




The Grace begins to work on you precisely when you register.
Preparatory activation energies begin immediately, and then amp up 16 days prior to the 5-Day event. This is why you must register early (in addition to the fact that it fills early). This creates a smooth 21-day process. From ancient times, "21 days" has been a sacred initation period.

 
You aren't kidding when you say it begins when you register! I woke up every two hours last night vibrating like I was plugged into some cosmic generator!  And the dreams!  whew!  And my session with my client this morning was on a different plane! Wow, Lola!  I am enjoying this magical ride! Love, Anne


This profound 5-day silent retreat feels like a restorative vacation, but the effects last a lifetime.  Here at City View Ranch (or in other beautiful locations around the world) we luxuriate in Grace, enjoy deep ecstatic states, eat delicious healthy food, laugh, enjoy amazing music, play with animals, enjoy fire circles, and do many, many powerful activities that we like to keep as a surprise. You might walk by the pond, do Tibetan Rejuvenation, non-habitual movement, and other gentle, fun exercise. You'll bathe in a field of resonance of pure Divine Grace twelve hours a day. There is a lot of resting and relaxing between Divine Openings to assist you in assimilating these powerful energies.


Susan, Geophysicist: There have been non-stop breakthroughs for me and my entire family since the 5-Day in January!!!! I couldn't begin to list everything, but the energy is still so high, and so pervasive, that everyone I visit with comments on 'there's something different - so alive - about you lately...." so I tell all about your wonderful book and website!!! But best of all, I went to the 5-Day thinking I had three small obstacles that I wanted to Move. Imagine my surprise (right...) when I realized that wasn't the issue at all! With all the Grace and Love still radiating from every pore, I reached out to family members who have been out of touch for too long, and now doors have opened that I thought were bricked over, cemented shut, and covered with thick thorny vines. Not so! During the 5-Day it became intensely obvious for me that family is incredibly important and I missed my family so much! I believe and feel in my heart that I am now creating the most wonderful, loving family situation and that it is, and will continue, to get better and better! 'Thank you' just doesn't do justice to the gratitude I feel for you bringing this Grace to all of us. It is the missing link, and the powerful, empowering message you share and give has changed every ion in my existence. I do believe that my resonant frequency is now off the charts, but that's ok because new, better charts are being created every day!  Wow!!!
Thanks and much Love, Susan

New initiates make a life-transforming difference for others with Divine Openings.

Some are giving Divine Openings just to friends, family, and needy people. Others are doing it professionally. Some are affecting the entire collective consciousness just by being quietly happy Grace broadcast towers. Did you know that just by being more enlightened, you affect 100,000 other people without doing anything? It is not necessary to give formal Divine Openings to make a huge difference in many people's lives.

Some find their special gift is assisting others with physical healing, while others give Divine Openings only.
I gave healings to my friend with MS - she says she's sleeping much better. As for me, the numbness in my face is gone!  I had an app't w/ my doctor today and told him I was no longer eating my anger. . . . he loved it!  He said he was going to use that line on his patients!" Love you soooo much, Ev
 

You can be a beacon for Divine energy, light, and intelligence through any medium or profession: banker, baker, musician, professor, or artist. Past groups included doctors, nurses, construction worker, writer, singer, designer..... people from all walks of life.Each person who does this program contributes to the awakening of the planet even if you just be who you are in your normal profession! Most initiates find that life accelerates to a whole new level soon after the course. See some of the recent initiates' comments shared below.

If you feel called, take this course just for personal reasons - to make a quantum leap in your own life -- or to be a leading edge giver of Divine Openings.

Healers/teachers: you can upgrade your power,
open up your prosperity, and get the big dose of self-care and rejuvenation that healers much need.

After the course, you are supported by emails, conference calls, and online materials after your course. There's a special private area of this site for Divine Openings Givers. There you'll connect with others who have been through the process, and get tools and resources you'll need.


Lola Jones is a "teacher of teachers."
People who are very advanced find new heights. Lola brings in new energies, and acts as a transformer to make them useable on this plane in a very grounded and stable manner that works in your practical life. She is then able to initiate other teachers the power to channel those energies. They are then able to channel the Grace energies directly for themselves, and to their clients, students, family, and friends.

More of The Many Notes From 5 Day Retreat Participants:

Hi Lola, So much good news... I will try to be brief but I have to rave. Since my 5 day last August 2009, I have lost, gained, lost, and gained new friends as I have become clearer on what is acceptable in my life. I am not attached to outcomes and feel much more in the flow. I have felt more at peace, more loved, and more happy than I have ever felt. David (husband) is much happier, has lost about 100 lbs and is bringing in money and now that he feels better, lighter and more with it, he is looking forward to making his once lost dreams come true. Devin (son) Graduated from high school and was accepted to apprentice for an electrician client I have and also for a special needs care home were he plays video games, bowling, or other entertainment for the clients. This while some of his friends have been putting in apps everywhere and still can't find a job after months of looking. some even a year. Jazzlin (daughter) Won a second place award for a film she produced. Got in the news paper for her participation in raising money for school by dancing salsa. and just got in to a special school for the arts.

I am relaxing and becoming more clear about what I want to do and have.  I have signed up three people for a course, and 4 more are about to sign up in a couple days. The crazy part is they are coming to me. I am having so much fun talking and sharing info and then they ask me how do they get involved. I am not even thinking about it most of the time. I recently had a shift.  I intended to live through my large self and a last week I truly felt it.  I said and did things with much more confidence and ease and with way more knowledge.  Your book and I have a blast. It won't let me work on (translating it to Spanish) unless I have played and am in a joyful playful mood when I do work. Something I intended from the beginning so that the message would not be lost.  My phone once kept texting me over and over with the last message a friend had sent me that read "you crack me up" -- after the first 3 times I would crack up laughing. The whole time I sat on the computer translating it sent that to me and each time I just kept laughing harder and harder.

I stopped going to your website for a couple months as life just didn't allow time on the computer but still went within and still used the book.  I got back on and I felt amazing. the energy is so amped.  I love all the work you have done to the site.
Love you mucho, Dinorah

School teacher: Read what her students said about the breathing exercise she does with them. She gives them Intention Openings (special Divine Openings for those under 18) through the "breathing exercise".

With the 5-day starting tomorrow, I know you're getting centered and ready, but just wanted to share an amazing dream I had last night: I found myself suddenly plopped down in the middle of the 5-day - and for their physical activity, you had the participants painting and redecorating the house.  Several other initiated Givers also showed up - it was if we were checking in from time to time to see how it was going and to pick up a paintbrush and help add a few strokes to the paint job. Fun, huh? Enjoy your week! Love, Cathy

From Stephanie: Dearest Lola, No words to express how Thankful and Honored I am to be part of The Divine Openings Team.  It moves me deeply.  WOW!!! I am SOOOOO EXCITED!!!!  I can feel EVERYTHING ramping up, all of this is so much bigger than anything I could have dreamed up in my wildest imagination!  Here's to Ease and Expansion!!!!! Love, Love, Love You!!! Steph XOXOXOXO

Sam works in the UK prison system: My dearest Lola, I have held off emailing you since the 5 Day Intensive in Austin in January, primarily because I was in so much doubt after my return to the UK ... I was coughing up depression, anxiety, rage. This confused me, as I was expecting bliss & calm ... I was in total doubt about your teachings. I have spent the last week re-reading the book from scratch and 'working' through Level 1 online and, oh my God, things are starting to lift! It is probably too early to take score but I wanted to let you know that I feel things are starting to change .... I have spent the last 2 days feeling really calm, open, blissful to the point of tears, all this whilst on night shift at work and, by rights, at a time when I should be raging due to hormones! My first experience with you in London was, about a minute after you placed you hands on my head, that I was sat under the blasters of a rocket, I felt my crown chakra open to the full width of my head and energy was just pouring in, I felt like I received a download ... what that download contained I have no idea, but I don't feel the need to know. I came away feeling so calm & happy. Texas was a similar experience ... nothing for the first 4 days except doubt and anger ... then in the initiation ceremony, I felt like I'd been punched in the chest, like my heart had exploded and the tears flowed like a river ... it was beautiful! I think previously I have been expecting Divine Openings to work without actually doing as you advise, now I am doing what I am supposed to do the results are feeling phenomenal. I am so excited!


From Dorothy, a psychologist: I did one healing that at first scared me because of the physical effects of uncontrolled twitching and "vibrating" of the person for several days. When he went to his physician a week later that all stopped as well as the physical pain he had been experiencing for 10 months since an accident. The doctor could find nothing wrong with him. His father called me last week that he remains well and calls it a miracle. The father did not know of the divine healing and I do not think the son remembers. When I got out of the way God truely performs miracles.

From Dinorah
: Lola, OMG! OMG! OMG! I gave Aurora (radio talk show host) Divine Openings. She was so amazed by it that instead of having me on her show once, she decided to make it a series as she experiences the three Openings.  We did the first one just after her opening and massage. It will air this Sunday. The recordings (two of them) will be played two consecutive sundays and will be a teaser and build up for my live interview on December 13  which will be after her third Opening.

She was talking about maybe making me be somewhat of a regular on her show.  She was saying such wonderful things about her experience and how much she loved my massage. She is receives massage often and has never felt one quite like it.
I am so excited!!  Dinorah

From Stephanie:
Hello Dearest Lola!!!!!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE YOU!!!!!  Really no words to Thank-You for all you do.  The 5 day intensive is by far THE BEST THING I HAVE EVER DONE!!!!
 
So now for the updates :), within the first 15 min. of our flight home, I was inspired to make outlines for Divine Events, dates for events, new bussiness cards.... the list goes on and on!  Presto Changeo DONE!  I have my first Divine Opening Event this Sun.  11/22 which is full.  Next one is Sat 12/12, already half full :) oh and I haven't even gotten an email written to let people know of these hee, hee!  I meet with the owner of one of the largest Metaphysical Stores in the state the first week in Dec. to get on her Calender of Events through her facilities- HUGE!!!!! :)
 
Many Miraculous Healings since I returned.  Old, painful, chronic conditions have beautifully just melted away!  Just this week a lady with frozen shoulder after her Healing was able to put her arm behind her back (to snap her bra :) ) which she hasn't been able to do for months with no pain, she said after her session " I know that this sounds wierd but, I got up off the table and just knew that I could do it!", a chronic tennis elbow in which this person had had since March, couldn't hold a cup of coffee and in one session had no pain, another client said at the end of their massage that they forgot to tell me that they had been waking up in the night because of shoulder pain.  So I asked if she was open to doing things differently than what we had done in the past and she said yes, so I gave her a healing for just a few minutes and she says, WOW that was very strange, I wasn't in pain at that time but I could feel it leave my body!!!!!
 
Thank-You! Thank-You! Thank-You Lola!!!!
Much Love to You!!!!
Steph

From Anne: Lola!!! Wow, wow, wow, WOW!  So I really got the whole instrument panel thing, and had a big ah-ha! with the diving in- you know, really experiencing how it actually is about feeling good, not feeling bad (because it feels good to be with what is), and it is such a loving myself sort of experience, but this: This is amazing!!

I've been taking the Level 1 online course, for I don't know 7,8 weeks maybe?  I'm in mod 6.  And I GOT it about focusing.  (wow, wow, wow).  This is so hugely huge for me!  When I reread the bit about about just intending to lift my vibration, to tip the nose of my plane up, something clicked this time and I really started playing around with it.  I have this quality of feeling now when I go inside, it is like this very soft, gentle expanding pulsation in my heart and it feels really loving.  It is the quality I now bring to my 'diving in' (which is kind of different now- I don't really take special time to do that, I'm just kind of always doing it, and when I do take special time for it it usually feels like a treat- even if I'm feeling something 'icky'). 

Anyway, getting off track here, the point is I was bringing that loving pulsation of awareness to my experience every time I noticed I was off in some scary story (and my awareness of this of late has been quite intense- I had really not idea just how much of my attention was focused on what wasn't working or what horrible thing might happen next).  That was pretty good.  I did notice some pretty quick shifts.  But then, tonight after giving a Divine Opening session for a client, I was driving home and suddenly noticed I was feeling all icky anxious (of course before that I was flying on the vibe of the session.)  And it felt so familiar- like oh, back to 'normal life' where I've got all this stuff to fix and worry about.  And I just said to myself, 'tipping the nose up': and poof, it was GONE!  No cultivating a loving feeling, no massaging it upward, just turned my attention up and I was UP!  I was shocked!  Nothing to do, nothing to figure out, no process: Just choosing UP.  That's it.  It is really that simple.  THAT SIMPLE!!  Wow!  Lola, this is so huge! 

And as I was UP, I could sort of feel the echo of that old story behind me, almost like a scene disappearing in a rear view mirror as you drive away, and I could feel how that small self wanted me to believe that somehow I needed that story, that worry, that constant evaluating/analyzing/worrying/weighing/assessing attitude.  But I was just DRIVING AWAY.  Then I remembered that part in your book, where you that exact thing: Just Drive Away.  And I had never really quite got that.  And it felt (feels) so GOOD to just drive away from all that drama, knowing none of it is real, and none of it I want, so I am not giving it any more of my attention- I am just UP!  And then it was like perma-grin because I was playing around with it and it was just going UP and UP and UP and UP! 

But this is the best part for me:  It is MY power to choose it!  Somehow, before, it always seemed like I ought to listen, like out of sympathy or who knows what.  I was just so willing to be batted about, washing this way and that with the current of my thoughts, thinking oh this is real or might be true I'd better consider on it and ponder this thing-that-I-don't-want some more... Yikes!  And now I can just see it is just this habit, and I can SO EASILY just choose UP.  It is MY power!  My life, my attention, my creation.  Mine to choose.  (It is almost scary what an epiphany this is, but wow, talk about taking your power back!!)  It is almost so simple and obvious that I could not even see it as an option before.  Somehow, before, everything seemed so interconnected with that story/ponderous attitude that it seemed no action could be taken that wasn't a part of it.  Before when I was 'trying to dive in', 'trying to raise my vibration' it was always in relation to that which I didn't want.  Now, I see that whole entire thing is an illusion, and I can just walk away from it, nothing held in my hands, empty, and free.

And it is so EASY! 

Lola, more people need to experience this!  People can be free!  They can be happy, healthy, having fun, loving their families... Lola, wow, thank you, thank me, thank God!  This is amazing!!  I just had to share it with you...

Up and away!

Melinda Gates:  I've had the opportunity this week, since home from Austin a few days ago, to work on both a mom and her daughter -- the mom's back went out, and the daughter burned her hand (2nd degree burns) this weekend after picking up a frying pan that had been in the oven without an oven mit.  These friends know me fairly well and know about my "out there" beliefs and practices, and they were fairly open minded to receiving healings from me although I know they had some pretty hefty scepticism as well. Well, Dianne just called to say that her back is 1000% better today.  And that she could not believe how great her daughter's hand looked.  Dianne is a nurse and saw Jen's hand Monday morrning (before I worked on her) and thought that it was going to scar up badly.  When we both saw the hand last night, it was incredible; there is almost no scarring!  I was pretty shocked myself! Dianne called to thank thank thank me.  I really appreciated the feedback; I know it's not "me" that's doing the healing, but the confidence can only help me in a positive way to get out there and share.  Confidence has been something that's been lacking in my life...but it's a whole new world now I'm finding!

From Bev McCaw:
A man (Bill Carter) from Alaska traveling on the same airport shuttle gave me this beautiful cross of Grace (a certain shape that represents Divine Grace) that is white with Rhinestones in it on a small pedestal because he did not have money.  It is about 9" tall x 7" wide.  He was inspired to bring it on his trip to Port Angeles, WA (he is seeing his very ill brother) and was flabbergasted to meet me on the bus as it was an answer to his prayers.  He has been trying all different modalities for enlightenment and not getting results and having difficulty with depression which he does not understand. He really saw how the synchonicity was no accident and is so excited about how valuable the Divine Opening is to him and the book, that it is beyond words.  After he received the Divine Opening, he had to hold his precious cross one more time but he was filled with so much joy for me to have it.  So now I have something representing Divine Grace for my alter! What a nice beginning as a new D.O. Initiate. So I gave him the book and one Divine Opening as I was inspired to do and he is going to contact me for follow up.  I gave him the D.O. while we were on the ferry ride (we were all alone)and then he got to lay down completely on the back seats of the bus afterwards. It was perfect. Thank you so much! Bev McCaw

Elizabeth, psychiatrist: Back at work the day after her intensive ended, she reported, "Wow, and thank you so much!  I have already given a Divine Opening to 5 patients,  I called it a blessing prayer,  and they were all fine with it! I am amazed at the fire in my hands, and it comes on every time, in just a moment. Just amazing grace! Got alot to be doing now, but it doesn't feel overwhelming at all!" (She had been exhausted when she arrived for the 5 Day.)

Then she wrote: ".... how different my life is from a week ago!  I feel like I am walking on cloud nine since I left on Sunday... the biggest boost of all came from GIVING the Divine Openings.  I am blown away... just blown away... I want to spend the rest of my life living in your new world.  I am in heaven....right here on earth.  Thank you a thousand times over." 

Massage therapist: I feel I have been back from retreat longer than a month because of all the things that have happend since then. Like a life time away.  I started receiving about 10-20 calls a day for a week, I was doing more massages than I have done in a year or two....I was asked to leave the place I was doing massages because of zoning and ended up in a beautiful spa (as an employee) in a good part of town.  Life is moving fast yet I don't feel I'm doing anything.  I feel more at peace yet lots of changes. Dinorah


Semi-retired salon owner in her 40's:
  I feel so blessed to have met you and know you a little better. I have an incredible story to tell you. I'm raving!!!!! About a year ago I got a hold of your book. I then went on line to buy it and started reading it. At that point in my life I thought I was going to die, or at least wanted to. I just broke up with the love of my life, Micheal. I remember clinging on to every word of your book. I so desperately wanted to feel better but I didn't know how. I was in a very low vibrational state. I read the book in a few days and decided to sign up for the level one on-line course. The first things I learned were, where my emotions were on the instrument panel and to write down everything I wanted. The first thing I wrote down was that I wanted restoration in my relationships. Micheal's name was the first one I wrote down. Since then I have read your book several more time and have had a few private phone calls with you and have had the privilege to go through the 5-day silent retreat and to help with one. I have felt so happy and have been enjoying life. I have been giving Divine facials to people and have seen first hand what Divine Openings have done for me and for others. I always knew that the love I shared with Michael was Divine and cherished it. I have not heard from him in almost a year and have not seen him around either. It was just the other day I fully surrendered my heart and let go. One day after I let go, He called me. We met and it was like we were never apart. We were both on the same vibrational level. We shared our spiritual journeys and laugh when we realized that they were the same! Being with him feels so different but yet the same. Today I have been reunited with the love of my life. I have given him a Divine facial and he had what seemed like jolts of energy run through parts of his body. Through his one arm at first then when my hands were on his head he jerked like he was just shocked. He could only explain what it wasn't. He said it wasn't like starting to fall asleep and you catch yourself and wake up again. He explained it as electric shock. Have you ever heard of this? Can you explain in your words?Thank you my dear dear mentor. What you have taught me and have given me has change my life forever! And I know that I will always be happy because you showed me the way to my Divine within!!!!!  I love you, LeAnn, Erie, Pa

Divine Openings Giver in Denver: Lola, I think I started giving Divine Openings on a regular basis. One in particular is a 20 year old son of a girlfriend of mine. Her son stayed in his room, communicating only with the computer, was pretty surly, had no friends, had flunked out of college and was making life miserable for himself and his family.  She had him in therapy, but he resisted going and it wasn't helping. I made up my mind I was going to start sending healing to her and her son on a regular basis.  I didn't tell anyone.  Well, we all went out to dinner about 10 days before Christmas and KC's first words were "there have been 3 miracles where Ross is concerned."  I was stunned and never thought I'd hear "Miracles" and "Ross" in the same sentence.  She said he had read a book.  (He never read anything that he didn't have to for school work before).  He was excited about the book and communicated that to his brother who was home for the holidays.  He started going to therapy without hassle and started opening up.  And he asked if his friends could come over and watch a football game.  First of all, he'd never had friends before, and he'd never had anyone over to the house. These things were huge for my friend and her son.  She emailed me today to say that he is reading more (thus, spending less time on the computer).  Therapy is going well and one session a month his mother goes too and progress is being made there.  He is in a much better mood and is much more outgoing. This whole situation was affecting her marriage and she knew it was soon going to be time to ask her son to support himself and move out on his own.  He now understands that and is slowly starting to plan for a future for himself. Lola, thanks so much for giving me the opportunity to help others through Divine Openings and healings.  I've been offering healing for a long time, as I am a Reiki Master and have worked with several other healing modalities. The Divine Openings and Healings open people up on a whole different level, so that more light can shine into every area of their lives. Love, Pat

Engineer, Mom, and Massage Therapist: "I am still amazed at all the wonderful things that are showing up- so much has changed in my life, in all our lives since starting with Divine Openings last November.   Blessings & goodness to you and all the critters." Love, Laura Witonsky (6 months after her 5 Day and 9 months since beginning Divine Openings)

Mom and intuitive Counselor, Austin: Dearest Lola, Thank you for being the "real deal" and offering the "whole enchilada". The strong conditioning of 40 plus years are fading and disappearing. My story is having less of a hold on me. I will say that before Divine Openings I was a perpetual seeker constantly exploring teachers and modalities. Soon after reading one of your articles in Austin All Natural magazine...Boom, there I was weeks later in your 5 day intensive. The silence, music, food (yummy), massage (ahhhh!), the initiation ceremony.... all synchronously flowed in a nest of Divine vibration and guidance. With the retreat an opening act, the post retreat energy continues to intelligently flow in my daily life. I love my new Divine eyes feeling more in tune with my inner knowing. For the first time I am available to more good than I have experienced or imagined before in my life. I am ready to uplift, guide, and support others to transform their lives with this healing energy from The Divine. Many years down the road on my tomb stone I want a glass hatch that encases a shiny red button that when pressed visitors will hear my voice saying "THAT WAS EASY!" (Lola has Easy Buttons everywhere.) Much Love & Gratitude, Kimber

Salon Owner, Pennsylvania: Hi Lola, I want to let you know I am so much in Love with the divine in me! My employees are asking for me to "touch" them. The energy in this salon is incredible. It's buzzing!!! Yesterday, one of my clients came in to get her nails done. When she was at the front desk paying she told my front desk manager how she felt great. We were all up at the front desk when I was sharing my time in Austin with them. She said she was going to gamble at the casino and if she wins she will split it with me. She knew I had my hands on hers for an hour. She called me later that afternoon and said she just won 2900.00! I wasn't surprised. Thank you for a beautiful experience. It is priceless!  Love and warm hugs, LeAnn

Man from Michigan, just out of grad school: Dear Lola, Just wanted to share something that happened to me as I returned to Michigan last night.  A guy walked past me in the Detroit airport parking lot. He was up there in years and seemed to rely heavily on his walker.  He stopped by a car and just kind of stood there.  I felt an overwhelming intuitive desire to send him healing and a Divine Opening.   I felt the energy rush through me and  started to tremble a bit.  Right then, I saw his body "jump" a little bit and he turned around and looked at me surprised, apparently sensing that I was sending him "something" :-P   (I was being inconspicuous about what I was doing, not wanting to draw attention). Shortly after that, to my ASTONISHMENT he walked right toward me without needing his walker at all -- his stride almost seemed brisk!  He started a conversation with me and we exchanged a few friendly words.  A few minutes later his son came to pick him up.  He said goodbye and said it was "good to hear from me" even though we had never met before.  The car drove away very slowly.  It was such an amazing feeling to know that I had helped someone "wake up" both physically and spiritually.  I wonder if his son was surprised to see his dad so lit up, but I have a hunch that he really was!  It is Such a blessing to be able to help people (in any way).

I also wanted to thank You for helping me wake up from a deep slumber I'd been in for the past half-decade!  You guys are truly life savers in every sense of the word. May You Always Be Blessed, Alfredo

College professor, California: "The past 24 hours have been amazing - starting with the Divine Opening last night by the fire. With Michael I felt a whirlwind of energy through the core of my body and with you a melting of my heart chakra. After that, a buzz - it was hard to sleep. Today was beautiful. I saw how grace surrounds and pervades everything in the universe - it was cool.

Medical doctor in Phillipines, nurse, skincare business owner, Catholic: "I could feel the energy when you touched the other people's heads." "Had funny, playful conversations with The Divine." "In the initiation, I really felt The Divine within me, and the lady Mary put flowers on my head! I reached the Stairway to Heaven, and saw beautiful white light with an angel welcoming me." And later.... "More money is coming to me. I spend an hour a day adoring the Divine. I'm addicted to it!"

Virginia: "The circuits are snap, crackle, poppin'." "Thank you thank you thank you." "Felt like the space shuttle ready for liftoff."  "I climbed a tree by the pond, and tossed in sticks. I'd never seen the ripple effect from above and it was very enlightening. The laughter in the afternoon was wonderful." "Yippee Yahoo. Keep it simple, girl!  Yours Truly, God"

Canada: "The spirit of my deceased husband came to me, swirled around me, and enveloped me with love and warmth during the Divine Opening from Michael. Lola's Divine Opening Hug shot love beams straight into my heart chakra, blasting it wide open." "The bulk of my neck pain is gone."

"I was taken back to the time of Christ, in a square where women were kneeling and washing the feet of men in tan colored robes. It was pretty friggin' spectacular."

New Jersey: "I feel as though I am emptying out. Lots of colors when I close my eyes." "Last night I dreamt I was love and one with all, then my heart just burst and I felt real happiness, I would say bliss."  "The Divine Opening last night gave me fire scalp! I was awakened during sleep by my hands -- they were so hot."  "The initiation was glorious and beautiful. The Divine was holding and carrying me. My mom came again, and she was reaching for me, to dance with her like we used to do when we were kids. She said to me, "I will do for you in spirit what I did not do for you in life. Trust God, for he is always with you, beckoning you to dance and love your life. I am blown away. Totally awesome."

California, electrician: "The Divine Opening put me out. I kept falling asleep, then when I'd wake I felt like I was still dreaming." "The Divine Opening Hug last night brought out more laughter in me, and the one this morning had me crying. It's great. I'm releasing emotions from all over."

Writer, small town in Texas: "When we got to the throat chakra I felt an 'otherworldly' energy. Very STRONG." "Lots of whirling energy. Tingling in crown chakra. Had a brief, sharp pain that passed quickly. Vibrated at different frequencies all day. Looking forward to the laying on of hands. People in my dreams encouraged me to go all the way with the Diving In process." "I felt my mother's hand lightly on my head." "The pure, sweet, healing, loving joy that overtook me when Lola gazed into my eyes, I cannot describe. Lola's hug turned me into Divine jelly. I was so deeply affected, I could not sleep at all for buzzing. Thank you to Lola, Honey, Milk Dud, the horses, and the land." Then, "Yay! I am so happy! I am feeling more free, and am able to let in so much more of The Divine's love and blessings for me."

Then later she wrote: Darlin' Lola: I can't even think about the 5-Day experience without tears welling.  Oh, how very, very, very blessed I am.  My spine is vibrating as I write this.  I have so much more to say, but really, just need to say "love you all deeply and the connections are so powerful."  I love my photo of our group.  I'm printing it out and will use it as an attitude/altitude shifter.  More than that, I will just look at it and feel the Divine in all of us.  You know, I haven't ever cried tears of joy before, but I am this moment, this beautiful moment as I think of all of you. Thank you.  I could go on and on and on, but you all know....

Austin: "Last night's first Divine Opening was powerful, but I found I needed to somehow tone it down because I felt I couldn't take it as powerfully as I felt it initially. I felt pretty immobile and just sat for a long time, and my hands got very hot. I'm still experiencing fear and guilt but The Divine is giving me insights about it."   "The initiation experience was amazing... I was just enveloped in tears.... joy, feeling my pain healed. When your eyes met mine I felt I was looking at The Divine. Then I heard a voice say, "You are Divine too." Then I felt movement up my spine. Then I saw God and Goddess mingled together travelling up and down my spine. That was wild." "I can feel myself letting in more blessings in my life. Unworthiness is gone."

Singer, real estate investor, Houston: "I'm emptying out. I'm excited to take this gift to women in shelters and prisons. I think this unconditional love and Grace without the dogma can be received without fear and resistance. I'm floating on a cloud." "When you and Michael stood together before you began, I felt a wave of energy stronger than the Divine Opening." "Elated. Bliss. Awe! Can't speak. Don't want to." "Had a visit from loved ones who'd passed on."

Denver: "Warmth moved up my spine, and it asked permission to go all through me. Where ever that energy went was ease and peace. I never thought I could go so deep into the silence."  "The horses that were shy before, came right to me."  "My chronic head and back pain (I used to need medication) is gone."

Consultant, Austin: "The amount of colors and strands of light everywhere were beyond words of beauty."  "I became rooted like a tree and could not move my body for a long time. I am grounded now. I was used to flying around in the cosmos a lot and yet I knew that if I was going to fully get "on the playing field" I needed to get in my body."

More excerpts from letters sent to us after the 5-Day:

"Dearest Lola, I am sitting here listening to one of your Level 2 audios and I just need to express my gratitude for everything you and The Presence has brought into my life. Everything you say zings! or resonates with me. Since the 5 day, I am doing really well, lots of small things taking place but I definitely feel something brewing! I have released resistance and dependence on outer things and last night I had a breakthru!  I am weaning myself off my prescription drugs with more ease than I had ever allowed before the 5 day! My physical healing is a given; it is manifesting itself daily in my life and it is doing so much better than i thought it could!!!! Haha!
I have to stop and remind myself of all that's taken place :) I experienced my Self/Presence Witihin to a degree that was beyond words while listening to the Gayatri mantra (Sri Baba's). I have found what i have been looking for my entire life and I thank you for this blessing of Divine Openings that has made my life fun, exciting, interesting, challenging, and WORTH LIVING!!!  YOu have brought me back home and I love you for it!!!!!  I look forward to giving more Divine Openings and healings and expanding this. It is too good to keep to myself!!!!!"  LOTS OF LOVE, SIANA

"I just wanted to take a minute to express what I just couldn't on Day 5, there were no adequate words -- they seemed too small to encapsulate what I continue to feel, about you all and our time together. But at the very least I did not want to leave my appreciation, gratiutude and love left unexpressed. There is a Spanish saying my mom used all the time, "Ensenyame con quien tu andas, y yo dile quien tu eres" It basically means, show me who you walk with and I'll tell you who you are." And I am so proud and honored to have walked this adventure/journey with you all and overjoyed to be a part of our family of the heart and spirit. Lastly, "MI casa es su casa."  I believe we have created a unforgettable lifelong connection of deep love and appreciation." With great love and respect for you all, Zina, New Jersey

"I saw such magnificence in all of you. And I have a relationship with God that is intimate and supportive now, rather than that "authority figure" who didn't care about me." Sandi Abramson, Austin, TX

"Our daughter Aurielle was feeling sick - slightly dizzy, fever, weak, etc. I started to feel very light and tingly in my chest... so I figured I would give Aurielle a healing. Brooke, my wife who also took the 5-Day Intensive, had already started! I helped out, and within a few minutes the fever was broken, and Aurielle said she felt a bit better. Within 15 minutes she was up and bouncing around again, and she ran in to tell me that she no longer felt dizzy and was all better. It was amazing to feel her body cooling down as we gave the healing.  Brooke's mom had a problem with her shoulder over the weekend - she strained her rotator cuff and couldn't lift it above her head without a lot of pain. I gave her a healing. Brooke sent her a healing. She told me that it felt almost completely better, and she didn't think anything else needed to be done. Things are really getting fun, and we are really excited to be on this new level."   Lee and Brooke Northcutt, Austin, TX.

"I can't stop giving Divine Openings! I've sent healings and Divine Openings to many already, and I give about 25 a week. One relative who has had lots of problems for a long time is now already feeling very blissful and is calling me every 30 minutes to report new changes.” Erin Defieux, Retired Psychologist, Pennsylvania

"I'm flying on the river of fire. I'm moving with sentience." Then later.... "Now I am buying my dream home. It is very exciting. I really love this peace. I relate it to our initiation and how beautiful the experience was, in spite of the seemingly foul weather. I remember that sky opening and sending purifying waters to bless us all in our journey along the path of enlightenment. So many serendipitious experiences since our initiation in Divine Openings." Patrick McKee, Manager, Austin
