Just wanted to say how much I still enjoy using the Apollonius Quartet audios. I've had them for two years and I occasionally feel moved to let them do their magic on me. Listening to them again always renews my appreciation for the work you do.

  I am very happy to sign up this course and able to learn so much from it. These courses are so well written and have helped me learning much new stuff.  

After two months of working with the Symbols, I grow from unfamiliar with it till now it is like a soul mate that we work together to gain more insight in energy work such as divination and healing. I have learnt many new ways of using the Symbols to enhance my healing art. The most important I learnt to understand myself and the energy mind more. I trust more in magic and miracle. I have also improved my visioning or Project Sanctuary work. I love all the journey to different Habitat and each times I feel I... Read Full Review

  The Genius Symbols encompasses Visualisation, Hypnosis, NLP, EFT, Matrix Reimprinting, Psycho-Cybernetics, BSFF, Pysch-K, The Emotion Code, Law of Attraction, in a much more workable way to enable an ordinary working man like me to realise a better life  

I have done a little of Visualisation, Hypnosis, NLP, EFT, Matrix Reimprinting, Psycho-Cybernetics, BSFF, Pysch-K, The Emotion Code, and Law of Attraction – I now realise that we can all have our own Abraham and much more besides!!!

I believe The Genius Symbols encompasses all of the above and much more in a workable way that will enable an ordinary working man like me to eventually realise the better life I have always wanted.

Let's hope so and thank you for creating something so utterly fantastic.

Peter Eardley

  With The Genius Symbols, we have the ultimately evocative keys to directly engage our own energy minds, access universal yet deeply personal wisdom and have our own visions.  

What does it take to get this old Viking to lay aside her well-worn Rune Stones or this TCM practitioner to let her I Ching stand in reverence only on the top shelf? More than the dawning of the Age of Aquarius!

From every direction we are encouraged to get out of the limiting forms of the traditional formulas of divination and discovery, as beloved and inspiring as they may be. We long to answer the call of our hearts to live vibrantly and be lead more intuitively but are simply lacking the tools.

  Project Sanctuary never fails to surprise and with Dr Hartmann’s new creation, “The Genius Symbols” its power has increased exponentially.  

Dr Hartmann has provided a door to our untapped potential with a concept that is both elegant in its simplicity and yet filled with deep and complex meaning. The Genius Symbols may be used as a tool of self-development, as a way of exploring and freeing the problems of the psyche that beset us all, a tool of divination, a tool of healing and relaxation, and many, many other uses.

These are an interactive tool, a method that will grow and evolve along with the user, a technique that will never grow stale.

Dear Silvia,

Just wanted to let you know, how much of a great time I had in my first sanctuary!

I’ve never really had any experiences with ‘visions’ so I was a bit sceptical. That being said, I went off to the beach to collect some pebbles (in the middle of a thunderstorm after work!), got back home, dried them all off, then wrote the symbols on.

So, for the first game I had the following results:

I had often heard the expression, “Life is a game”. The only problem I was still having was manifesting what I saw into reality. The Genius Symbols have solved that problem! Once I had read this book and played a couple of classic games, I was off and running.

The symbols have become my own personal runes. The game is so adaptable. I don’t care what techniques you are using to create your own reality; this game seems to complete the circle.

The symbols remind me of the rules of life and give me instant focus on how to solve a problem.

  In my opinion, this is "must read" for any psychologist and personal development practitioner.  

The more I read Silvia Hartmann's incredible book "Project Sanctuary", the more possibilities I see.

This work exhibits not only an incredibly deep knowledge and appreciation of the nature and power of metaphor, but also amazing creativity.

As far as I can see, working with metaphor in the way she suggest is ten times more powerful than standard metaphorical applications because it makes the unconscious itself into the creator or builder.

It's also more fun and a whole lot more gentle and respectful.

In my opinion, this is "must read" for any psychologist and personal development practitioner.

  This is not an experience I have had before with any book to this degree; I can only conclude that your use of the processes of languaging is nothing short of masterful.  

I must confess to having heaved a heavy sigh prior to opening the document. As a neurolinguist, I find much of the New Age writings lacking in content and structure.

From the start, your use of language amazed me. I was determined to track the structures, state chains, post hypnotic suggestions and loops, but in spite of my best efforts, I kept being "sucked in" by the content and found myself drifting off right into wherever you wanted me to be at the time.

  This is a must reading for all those who are serious in making change in their life. I, for one, am definitely going to incorporate these principles in my own life and my professional work.  

First let me say that it was a pleasure to read "Project Sanctuary"... very complete in covering the subject matter.

I found the book to be easy reading and written in a very practical tone. I can quite easily relate (both from having personally being there as well as professionally in dealing with clients and co-workers in the field) to how people tend to mess themselves us and are forever looking for problems or believing that their problems can never be solved.

I believe that the book reflects the desire and fulfills the need... Read Full Review

"Project Sanctuary" is a piece of work in which every therapist of every
persuasion ought to be vitally interested. It provides an unprecedented
opportunity to communicate with one's unconscious mind through the generation of
symbol and metaphor, thus having rapid, ecological effect on the "real" world.
Best of all, it offers work which _every_ client seems to _want_ to do!
"Project Sanctuary" is a piece of work every NLPer should rush to buy. If
Design Human Engineering (tm) has never made sense to you, maybe because you
didn't want to turn... Read Full Review

  Silvia Hartmann has written a veritable cornucopia of ideas about how to begin to explore the powerful domains of our own minds and the minds of our clients.  

Project Sanctuary is nothing less than a Magical Mystery Tour of the mind.

Silvia Hartmann has written a veritable cornucopia of ideas about how to begin to explore the powerful domains of our own minds and the minds of our clients.

It was a revelation to find such complete and comprehensive descriptions of ways to utilise the power of our minds, hearts and souls. A real and rare treat. This book is a contribution which will undoubtedly help many.

  An ingenious system - not like the usual read at all. It was more like listening to someone sharing exciting discoveries. Delightfully evocative!  

My reaction to the book is very positive. As I read it I had the uncanny sense that you were present as I read and that you were TALKING to ME personally.

It didn't seem like the usual read at all, it was more like listening to someone sharing with me some exciting discoveries. Someone with a sense of humor who is able to empathically anticipate reader's reactions and can respond to these reactions reassuringly.

Still the approach you have developed, while it is stunning in its creative depth and comprehensiveness, may not be the... Read Full Review

  Thank you so much for a brilliant book, just this one experience has made it more than worth buying it...  

I have started reading your material and am absolutely intrigued. The
"sanctuary" was quite an enlightenment and I found my mother as one of my guides which was a lovely thing. (It has only been a 1-1/2 since her transition and I have missed her and her love and reassurance a great deal. For some reason I have not experienced her presence like I did when my father passed over.) While I have heard and used the "safe place" technique before, I believe this is far more respectful, hopeful and helpful and comprehensive.

Thank you so much for a brilliant book,... Read Full Review

  I've worked with metaphor a lot, but have never had so much fun with it as I can now see the potential for.  

I've received Project Sanctuary this morning and I've probably read about 1/5.

I am enjoying it immensely. Actually finding it hard to put down. Your style is just great -- quirky, biting, good information packed in an interesting way.

I've worked with metaphor a lot, but have never had so much fun with it as I can now see the potential for. Also, I'd been introduced to sanctuary work and thought it was boring. Boy did I have the wrong teacher all those years ago.

Wish I'd known you then! I actually feel excited about really getting into this now that I begin to see the potential.

best regards,

  It should definitely come with a warning that Project Sanctuary can produce intense responses and profound change.  

I have just finished your book and I could not wait to tell you how truly magical it was, I have done more inner work with your book in the last few weeks than I have done in the last 6mths. It should definitely come with a warning that it can produce intense responses and profound change.

Anyway you have produce something really wonderful (this statement I feel is a massive understatement so multiply it by 10000 and you will get close to how I feel).

Thank you so very much for sharing it.

Dear Dr Hartmann,

Thank-you very much :-) for sending Project Sanctuary so quickly.

I've started to read and I can only say that it's so nice to see I'm not alone in all my opinions and I like the theory upon which the book seems to be written. It deals with the point of now, the point of reality. AND - bonus point for me- it's not dealing with words but images that are easy. I love the way you point out the obvious which - after having seen a counselor I would never choose to see again...-obviously isn't all that obvious to some, the brain is the most...

... I love your metaphors, your use of examples and stories, and your
common-sense-let's-make-it-fun-and-easy approach. I tried some of the process
and liked it, felt I learned something that I didn't know about me, and
something that was important for me to know about me.
I especially liked how you were there with me in the process. I can imagine
people having "sanctuary parties" where they get together for several hours and
create, support, and share.

I appreciate the effort that went into this creation, and I would feel delighted

  I found your book to be an excellent source of information that will help many people come to a new understanding of how things work.  

Dear Silvia:

Thank you for the honor of allowing me to read your wonderful book.
I found your book to be an excellent source of information that will help many people come to a new understanding of how things work. I find that it is explained in a way that will be thought provoking to those who would not normally think that therapy works.

I find your book to be a wonderful tool. You explain things well so that the layperson can easily understand. You are doing a terrific job.

Thank you for allowing me to participate in your work of love.

Project Sanctuary - A book that really moooovved me to some places I didn't
know I needed to go
When I was sent this book to review, I had no idea how powerful it was. As
I read it I found myself lucid dreaming and in the process discovered things
about myself that delighted and astounded me.
This book was written to provide a tool for individuals and therapists to
address issues, in a lasting, coherent, holistic way within a framework that is
uniquely tailored to the individual.
This is what I gathered from reading the introduction anyway. I was... Read Full Review

If there was only one single book after a lifetime of books I could take away with me to a lonely island, this would be it. Why? Because Project Sanctuary writes every story you would ever want!

Dear Reader,
Well, you might know me as the cheerful author
of Adventures In EFT. You might have read some of my articles, may have tried
out some of my patterns. You might have heard things about me, and that's
alright.
 
I have done many things over my life time;
some of them I am proud of and others I'm not so proud of. I am quite old now -
43 - and I have worked very hard to make sense of the Universe during all those
many, many years.
 
As I look back over my life, certain things
stand out; certain achievements, as they... Read Full Review

  I have been fascinated by stories and imagination ever since I was a little girl, and every page in your book was like a homecoming to me.  

Dear Mrs Hartmann,
I just had to write to you and tell you how
much I love and enjoy your wonderful Project Sanctuary. I am 82 years of age and
still see a few clients (I am a Jungian Analyst by training). I have been
fascinated by stories and imagination ever since I was a little girl, and every
page in your book was like a homecoming to me.
 
I am a little sad that I had to wait this long to
finally see expressed what I have felt in my heart for these many years but I am
still overjoyed to have "met" such a kindred spirit.
 
Thank you again,
Yours sincerely, Evelyn Morrisson, Cornwall,
