REGISTRATION INFORMATION

Attitudinal Healing is a widely recognized, award-winning, replicable model for inner healing that has been used successfully for four decades in Centers for Attitudinal

Healing and their communities. Now in thirty countries on six continents it provides trainings, workshops and support to hundreds of thousands of children, adolescents and adults facing life-threatening illness, conflict and challenges.

People of all ages, beliefs, walks of life and cultures benefit from the practice of Attitudinal Healing, which was founded in 1975 by Gerald Jampolsky, MD. Its work has inspired extraordinary strength in millions of ordinary people to heal their own hearts and minds by choosing peace over conflict, compassion over indifference and love over fear.

With grateful hearts we welcome you to this historic gathering of social innovators from around the world who are pioneers of Attitudinal Healing in the fields of health, education, business and community

building. Come join us and so many others to celebrate forty years of service, to inspire one another and awaken our vision for the future.
