I heard about the Diamond Approach when I was living at a spiritual retreat center. A number of the residents were participating in Diamond Approach retreats. I read the Pearl Beyond Price and found it a difficult read because of the psychological jargon. I set it aside for several years. Then a resident was going through the teacher's training and needed practice students. I did a private session a week. I was introduced to the Diamond Heart series of books. I would read a chapter before bed at night. The transmission was so powerful that I would have the experience being described. I couldn't wait for bed at night. My appetite for the work grew. I couldn't get enough of it. Later a Diamond Approach group formed at the retreat center. I joined. I wanted to do more so when the opportunity arose for the teacher training I applied and was accepted.
