Re-New Horizons
Each year New Horizons: Phase III participants are exposed to a wide variety of ideas, systems and thought structures that offer opportunities to re-visit ways of viewing the world and question prejudices, fixed ideas, and ideologies.  During New Horizons The Haven becomes a hub of synergism, fueled by the energy of engaging and curious people investigating the nature of their own assumption system, and shaking loose from the idea that there is one particular truth.

New Horizons is designed to integrate the concepts and experiences encountered as a participant in Come Alive and/or Phase I: Self Awareness and Phase II: Self and Other.  And yet each year the course takes on a new flavour and unique direction.  Why?  We think it is primarily because of two factors.  One is that, as with all courses here, each gathering is composed of a broad range of people of all ages, interests, and backgrounds bringing their own unique perspective, styles, and issues to the fore.  The second factor is the unbridled passion Ben and Jock have for New Horizons.  They are forever exploring new ideas and engaging others in the process.  New Horizons offers them and participants a unique extended opportunity each year to connect on a personal level in an "anything's possible" atmosphere.  Small wonder people return for part or all of New Horizons again and again!

As we mentioned last month, it is now possible to attend all Phase programs in shorter segments.  The dates for this year's New Horizons and its shorter components look like this:

• The complete course is July 4 to 29, and tuition is ($2250 earlybird) $2625 (meals and accommodation extra)
• Part A is July 4 to 10, tuition is ($650 earlybird) $740 (meals and accommodation extra)
• Part B is July 11 to 17, tuition is ($650 earlybird) $740 (meals and accommodation extra)
• Part C is July 18 to 29, tuition is ($1100 earlybird) $1265 (meals and accommodation extra)

We have made it very flexible and affordable for "New Horizons Alumni" wishing to return for some or all of this year's course.  There are tuition discounts up to 45% if you have participated in New Horizons in the past!  There are special rates for daily, component, or complete participation.  Contact our Registrars, Morag and Renée toll-free at 1-877 247 9238 for more information.

We invite you to take a look at your summer plans, and consider joining Ben and Jock and expanding your New Horizons!
