University Dr. - The University of YOU
Within these halls, you will learn the fundamental principles to aid in your life's progression. By learning these concepts, you will gain the knowledge necessary to fulfill all that you desire. Classes are free and include course materials, recommended reading, study aids, discussions, and assignments to practice what you've learned.
A special note from our Dean of Education, Michelle Niederer, CEO & President of The Secret Gratitude Rock.com:
Instruction will be given, but you will choose what parts you take up into yourself, and what parts you leave behind. Take nothing for granted. Believe nothing that you do not examine and determine feels right for you. The way of the teacher is to live as an eternal student. Do not put your trust in anyone other than yourself. YOU will never lead you astray. Your eternal spirit will not allow it. The choices, challenges, and situations you have encountered up to this time have brought you the wisdom, courage, and strength that you will need for the next phase of your journey. Give thanks for all of the lessons - no matter how hard; for they have forged greatness.
Your life has not been easy. People have betrayed you, they have hurt you, the world has oppressed you, and fear has overtaken you. With all of your responsibilities, stresses, worries, and grief; is it any wonder that you are tired? You are in a quandary. You know your life is not working, and yet, you can't seem to find the energy to change. And why is that? Let me affirm, it is absolutely NOT due to a lack of will-power. You do not lack for anything, and you have more will and more power than you could possibly imagine. The reason you feel so tired is because your body has been broken, and your spirit is badly wounded.
The first lesson we will learn is that your life is an outward expression of your inner reality. Your job, friends, relationships, finances, health, and level of happiness are an exact replica of the state of your inner spirit. This is why people quit a horrible job, divorce their spouse, move to a new town to "start over," or lose weight only to find that the new job is worse than the last, the new relationship is doomed from the start, the "fresh start" has brought fresh problems, and your weight has not only crept back on, but has added a few pounds for good measure. All change happens from the inside out. Everything else is just illusion.
The role of the body is to house and protect the spirit. When the spirit is wounded or broken, the body does all it can to form a protective barrier around the wound, but if we don't turn inward to heal, the wound becomes infected and spreads; wearing down the armor of the body until it breaks down and becomes ill or dis-eased.
We are all appointed unto death, but most of us are slowly killing ourselves by not listening to our bodies cries for help. If we don't show love and respect to the body, what message does that send to our spirit?
Have you ever wondered why children imagine being a super-hero, or a princess, or a great warrior? That is because that is exactly who you are and have always been,
and are yet to be. As a child, we know and understand our great worth and have no concept of limitations or lack. Think about this; in the first two years of life, a child grows to half of their full adult height. They learn to crawl, walk, run, and dance. They learn at least one foreign language. They learn the signs and symbols of this world, to effectively communicate their wants, needs, and desires. They become masters of balance, and timing, and perseverance. They are master builders, and inventors, artists, and humanitarians. With grace, they walk the realm between spirit and physicality. And despite this focus, dedication, and accelerated learning; they love, imagine, experiment, and know abundant joy. They are busier than you or I could possibly comprehend. And yet their energy seems boundless. And when they rest, they are completely and fully at peace. This is why it is our purpose to be born perfect, and spend the rest of our lives returning to the meekness, humility, and innocence of a child.
Within these sacred halls, we will present those lessons that will open the door to your remembrance. And in so doing, you will begin to create extraordinary things in your life. A new course will be posted weekly, and each course is short - about 2 pages (500 words). This enables you to digest the information you need, without investing huge blocks of time. We encourage you to print them out and take them with you to ponder throughout your day. The journey is yours - take it at the pace that works for you. We also encourage you to form "classes" by inviting your friends to join you on this journey. There will be a time when you will have the opportunity to register your group and work with others from around the world. The road you are about to undertake is not easy; but is made infinitely sweeter when traveled with friends.
Welcome to the University of YOU - online School of Self. It is time to take back your innate power to heal your life.
All of our courses are free, but you must register as a student to access the materials. We will send you notice as new courses, recommended reading, worksheets and study aids are posted. Sign up using the form below and we'll send you a link to begin accessing the coursework for your sacred journey.
Best wishes for an abundant new you,

"I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by a conscious endeavor."
- Henry David Thoreau
Wouldn't it be great if there was a school that taught you the really important stuff in life? Not just the surface knowledge, but the real depth and breadth to change the way you think, the way you see yourself, and the way you see the world? To have professors that really care about you and want you to succeed?
Within these halls, you will learn the fundamental principles to aid in your life's progression. By learning these concepts, you will gain the knowledge necessary to fulfill all that you desire. Classes are free and include course materials, recommended reading, study aids, discussions, and assignments to practice what you've learned.

Welcome Friends!
My name is Michelle and I will be your guide as we begin this sacred journey. This is no ordinary school - it is the online School of Self. Here, you will be both student and teacher. This is not a religious course, but it is a spiritual study. And YOU are the spirit you will be studying.
Instruction will be given, but you will choose what parts you take up into yourself, and what parts you leave behind. Take nothing for granted. Believe nothing that you do not examine and determine feels right for you. The way of the teacher is to live as an eternal student. Do not put your trust in anyone other than yourself. YOU will never lead you astray. Your eternal spirit will not allow it. The choices, challenges, and situations you have encountered up to this time have brought you the wisdom, courage, and strength that you will need for the next phase of your journey.
