| "I`m very glad I came across
Hugh Milne`s Visionary Craniosacralwork in my life. In
the training you learn subtle craniosacral techniques and
at the same time you can experience deep healing yourself.
You also learn a lot about healing in a comprehensive way.
The high quality of touch of VCSW makes this method very
deep going." |

"Prior to beginning the Milne Institute
program, I had trained as an energy healer for 5 years. I
was looking for a way to ground the work I did with clients,
and have a clearer understanding of how I was impacting
them. I had been
exposed to Craniosacral Bodywork, and it stood out to me
as a technique that was primarily energy work, but was physiologically
based. The awareness of the cranial wave allows the
work to be more grounded. When I decided I wanted more
training, I took introductory courses in a few systems of
Craniosacral Therapy. Then I heard about The Milne
Institute Program. This program sounded like the right
balance of intuitive and technical skills.
In bodywork, it is common to find teachers who are either
highly proficient in technical training, but find conveying
the essence of, “what they really do” very difficult,
or, exceptional intuitive healers who lack the ability to
convey the technical aspects of their work. I am happy
to say that the Milne Institute program offers a level of
refinement in cultivating both the technical and intuitive
skills of a healer. This is an inspiring balance. In
this program, Hugh weaves together spirituality, psycho-emotional
understanding, intellectual knowledge, technical mastery,
and creative self-expression. Together this forms a
delicious and inspiring soup to nourish the healers’ soul! Hugh
and his teachers require the students to develop a range
of skills, while nurturing the creative potential in their
program participants. This program is nothing short
of life changing." |

| "The Milne Institute training has
helped me to listen, both to myself and the person I am
treating. I feel that I am becoming a better practitioner
due to the practice of stilling my mind and opening my
eyes, ears and heart. I have learnt valuable new technicall
skills, but I realise that the real skill is in the ability
to choose the right techniques at the right time. Each
person has different needs."

| "What I value most in the training
at the Milne Institue is the high quality of the instruction.
The Milne Institute is large enough to offer a variety
of teachers, with different skills and approaches, but
it is not a big and bureaucratic place, and feels more
like a community than an institution. The standards here
are high. What is asked of you as a student is to learn
more than technical skill, as important as that is, and
reach the level where your work with your own process allows
you to be transparent enough that you are able to see your
client with something approaching true clarity. As Hugh
says, much more succinctly, 'in order to go deep, you must
be deep."

| "The value of this training lies
not only in the effectiveness of the many techniques it
shares, but also in its ability to help us hone our perceptions
and become more present with ourselves and our clients.
VCSW invites us to live
life with greater awareness, depth, and joy and to share
the resulting benefits with others."

| "What I love most about Hugh’s
classes is the dance. My heart comes forward to be seen & I
feel again like a child, my whole heart available to love.
It is as if the heart finally has the chance to communicate
through the body a gladness & joy that I often bury.
My eyes then become the heart’s eyes. My hands
become the heart’s hands & I know what is possible
in each of us when we are held & invited to move freely." |

"Chosing the Visionary Craniosacral Training was one
of the best decisions I made in the last few years.
It has helped me to trust in my own path through
life, my own way, my work, and to find clarity, self
acceptance and love. I have met precious people, dear
friends, to learn with and to continue knowing more
about life and healing.
Learning how to take honest decisions, accepting the
flow of inner processes, being in touch with deep structures
of life, finding awareness through clear techniques taught
in an atmosphere of skilfulness, respect, deep knowledge, and
love, where people feel really met and seen, that’s
precious! I am happy with this form of craniosacral
work." |

| "Through the Milne Institute,
I have gained a skill set that includes technique, perspectives,
and intuitive poetics— which are simple enough I
use them everyday and so profound that I will be perfecting
them over my lifetime. This training was my Master’s
degree. In the marketplace I find my use of the Milne training
makes me unique and distinguishable from all the others
in this great line of work." |

| "It
is easy to speak of Hugh Milne's ability as an unparalleled
teacher of Visionary Craniosacral Work. It is easy
to admire teaching which flows from visual, to hands
on, and back with such ease that the days of learning pass
effortlessly.
What is not so easy, is to describe the journey
Hugh helps each student take to a place deep within himself
or herself, to a place where touch becomes the art
of non-doing, and where Visionary Craniosacral work becomes
meditation." |

| "Through
this training I found back the way to my heart, this,
for me, is the most important. During the training I
estimatet the sensitive way, how every student has been treated. With
the open heart it is possible to find also the Soulfamily,
and I found them in the training, they are living in the
whole world, but they are so important for me. Most
of them I met in this training. Because I
take regulary Craniosessions my body feels much better and
I listen more to it." |

"I
first met Hugh Milne about 15 years ago at a Cranial 2
class in a remote vally in Norway. By that time I had already met
several teachers of craniosacral work in Sweden, Denmark
and the US.
I was very impressed even at that time how Hugh could
incorporate the spiritual dimensions into craniosacral treatment. I
had been very much connected with the Upledger
Institute in Florida, both as a visiting therapist and a
teacher of Subtle Energy classes.
In 2006 I took Hugh's in Hamburg, Germany and I
realised that after being a practitioner of craniosacral
therapy for nearly 20 years, my treatment had grown
into a special pattern, and I wanted and needed to change
some of my routines. In Hamburg I fully experienced how it
is possible to add another dimension to the treatment
than other teachers have managed to convey.
We all need to free ourselves from a possible stagnand teatment
rouine, and try to listen to the clients needs and freequencies.
This was the most important issue for me to learn in Hamburg. I
still play Hughs DVD and every time I get inspired to strech
my treatment just a little further. Never too late to learn
and change." |

"I asked for
a teacher to help me learn and understand how to work with
people in a safe and gentle way that would bring healing. I
wanted more than just "how to's" and exams to
prove my competence. What I got was far more than
I could have anticipated. The discipline was exactly
what I needed to understand that balance between heaven
and earth. The information was delicious! The
client record exercise forced me to pay attention. I
needed that kind of structure...with feedback and validation. What
you gave me has prepared me to step into that space of
confidence and courage. I am grateful for the experience
of being an apprentice.
Thirsty souls are searching for teachers to show them how
to tap into their own wisdom and power. That is Hugh's
gift.
VCSW helped me remember who I am. In this wonderful soul's
journey, I am touched by the Breath of Life. What I
value most about the training is the discipline of presence
while fostering my intuition. By understanding the
anatomy of the human craniosacral system, I could fine tune
my focus on the spirit of that particular structure and the
Oneness of everything in it. This program has the impeccable
nature of comprehensive learning on many levels - physical,
energetic, spiritual and emotional. Hugh Milne
will teach you to help your clients feel deeply touched and
deeply seen. " |

| "I
recommend training in VCSW to practitioners of all backgrounds.
It is a beautiful training or rather an art form in
deeply listening to the body, mind and spirit of an individual.
As a Physical Therapist and Structural Integration practitioner,
I've acquired a toolbox with many useful techniques. Since
beginning VCSW I find myself using fewer techniques
and focusing on deeper levels of presence and stillness
as I work. VCSW has impressed upon me how healing
it can be for people when we quietly listen and
work from a place of stillness - truly amazing things
happen." |

| "Aside
from in-depth anatomy and technique, the Milne Institute
reminds me of how we are truly spiritual beings having
a human experience, something we so often forget in our
day to day lives. For me, at the core of the Milne
Institute is the deep longing and yearning to open our
hearts. The work to open our hearts and let our spirits
shine is, I feel, the reason I am here. I love the deeply
caring and individual attention the teachers and assistants
provide; they create such a safe haven to explore deep
unwinding." |

"From
the first time that I read in Hugh’s book, The Heart
of Listening “…. let calmness settle over
you ….” my life took a major spiritual turn. Later,
while sitting with my eyes closed just before the first
class, Cranial 1, I heard a soft but confident voice with
a faint Scottish lilt break the silence: “…and
how is your heart today?” I didn’t know
then, but I was about to learn.
Visionary Craniosacral training has given me a ‘spiritual
heart transplant’, and the anatomical knowledge to
let that heart see what troubles people, and be of service
when needed. I have learned to live from the heart
instead of from the mind, and to approach people with reverence. I
am confident as I work with my clients that they will feel
as if they have been seen, which opens a clear path to trust
and healing." |
