    If anyone is stuck in their 'past', LE can help among other things. Where you have lost power, you can regain it.

    I took the "Landmark Forum" and completed the "Advanced Course".

    This past weekend I worked the sound equipment ... reminded me of the good ol kingdom hall days. Anyways. Check it out!!!

    So, are you being put upon to recruit others? I've heard that they put pressure on people to do just that.

    poppers...YES BIG TIME!!!

    At the end of the day LE is a business, I don't blame them :) But at the end of the day ... LE works for A LOT OF PEOPLE.

    I visited the link and still have no idea what it is about. If it is so good, why don't they proclaim their message. I am wary which is a good place to be in this society.

    there's quite a few websites detailing how close this company/course is to a cult.. be sure to do your research before signing up (as always!)..

    The Landmark Forum worked for me and I would recommend it to any ex-JW as part of the recovery process.

    In terms of doing your research, you may find the following articles useful:

    It has cultish undertones, so be wary, but don't let that stop you getting the benefit of it if it appeals to you. In my experience it is not likely to be damaging if you are mentally stable, Landmark doesn't tout what they teach as 'the truth', and as with anything you should apply your own critical thinking ability to anything you hear.

    I just posted about my experience on a different thread and I'm happy to answer any questions about it if that would be useful.

    The Landmark community is full of vibrant, positive and inspirational people who have found a way to move on from the history of the past and focus on the dreams of the future.
