  1. Good sound advice from Aware.

    5

    If you are prepared to put effort into reading and entering your thoughts into the course, you will get a lot from it. I was able to discover things about myself that I always knew were there but never spent the time to dig deep and uncover my thoughts behind them. Give it your time and you will feel better for it!
