Ethics: From the Dalai Lama

Lovely and thoughtful book. One of the most interesting ethics books I've ever read.

Holly Clothier Las Vegas, NV

As a Buddhist I appreciated that this coursework was offered to satisfy licensure. The principles are key to benefiting all beings no matter what their profession.

Fanny M. Mandelberger, CMT, The Stillpoint Wellness Center, Tako

Ethics from the Dalai Lama is a profound course.

This course had a profound impact on me. It provided a tangible means to shift my consciousness in a significant way.

Dottie Curtis, LMT Where Soul Meets Body Beaufort, SC

I love the book, first of all! The Dalai Lama is an inspiration! The course really required full reading of the material, and the answers were not always obvious, so you had to pay attention. I like that!

Dolly Stavros, RYT, LMT Red Stone Yoga Bend, OR

I loved the book, great information

Desa Loughman,

I really enjoyed reading this book. My study coincided with a trip to Thailand and it really helped me to understand the Buddhist philosophy better.

Denise M. Fredette MS, PT, MT

I was so excited when I saw that Health Positive! offered this course. Most ethics courses are fairly dry, so it was great to be able to have such an interesting class available, and at a reasonable price. The Dalai Lama writes about ethics in such an accessible and easy-to-understand way. It\'s a very compelling book, and the learning materials are well done also.

Debra Reetz

great course, great book

Deborah Nugnes LMT

I thoroughly enjoyed the Dalai Lama's book and plan to share it with friends and colleagues.

Carole Farley, NCBTMB Sun Prairie, WI

I enjoyed the course. It is always a pleasure to read the Dalai Lama. His life and work are inspirational.

Brian Johnson, NCTMB, San Francisco, CA.

Was not looking forward to the ethics requirement, but this course was much more beneficial - love the Dalai Lamas insight and peaceful approach.

Betsy Jane Butner, LMBT 5268, Winston-Salem, NC

This was a valuable way to review ethical concepts, especially compassion

Anne B. Page Licensed Massage Therapist Kona, HI

It is refreshing to see compassion & empathy as part of an ethics study.

Angela Goble Waxhaw, NC

This course is appropriate for all people, regardless of profession

Irit Levy, CMT, Beverly, MA

"Ethics for a New Millenium", by H.H. Dalai Lama, is simple and profound. Studying it's questions on Ethics should be required for all! I live in a somewhat remote area, so your homestudy courses not only provide an opportunity for getting my required CEU'S affordably and conveniently, but also offer really good material. This Ethics course is one of the best I've taken in nearly 25 years of practice. Thank you!

J. Elizabeth Foster, LMP

Great book! Excellent presentation of concepts.

Janet

well written book by truly a man of peace and honor

Janus Hudson 30 yr bodyworker of Flagstaff, AZ

The course was interesting and thought provoking. I reached a deeper understanding of ethics.

Jean M. Blackman, Nationally Certified, LMT Scarborough Manor NY

This course motivates an individual to refocus on what really is important in life regardless of career choice, and that is to always have patience, kindness, and forgiveness for one's self and others, and to offer those virtues through empathy, compassion, and unconditional love. In the spirit of genuine humility, not for self-serving personal benefit. That this perspective inspires each of us to impact our communities and the world, one person at a time, with spontaneous loving kindness, the basic quality everyone requires for happiness.

Jeane Hays BA, LMT, NCTMB Hays Desert Sun Massage, Scottsdale A

The book was very interesting and the information shared extends to all realms of life: work, play, & relationships.

Julee V., MN

The book was great. The test questions were helpful to sum up the book.

Julia Francis NCMBT

I enjoyed reading the insightful techniques from the Dalai Lama course.

Karen P. Tweedley, NCMT - N.J.

The content was thought provoking for me as a citizen of the world as well as bodyworker in particular. It underscored the role of compassion in all relationships and its influence on peace. The importance of the therapist's self-awareness and scrutiny of his/her attitudes and communication with clients cannot be underscored enough.

Kathryn Bell, MSW,LMT, RCST, Bloomington, Illinois

This book and course gave me a new approach with which to view the world, and opened my eyes to ways I could be more empathetic with my clients. I enjoyed the book immensely.

Ethics for the New Millennium is a must read for the Massage Therapist. It reminds us to respect each other and our work will be more productive. By showing respect and empathy towards the people the true nature of our practice can truly create a therapeutic change in each individual life. We have the ability to touch not only muscles, but also the very souls of people.

I would not have studied "Ethics" if it were not for this exam, but thank you what a gift for humanity! I'm so very pleased you are including the Dalai Lama Ethics for the new millennium in our M.T. Ethics course work. The Dalai Lama's words are life changing and continue to open my heart and hands.

The Dalai Lama is fantastic- He presents a common/ethical ground for all religions.

Patty McCoy-Almond NCBTMB North Carolina

Because massage therapist often work on their own, it is difficult to find a way to talk about the ethical dilemmas specific to massage therapy. This course helped me feel like I'm on the right path and acknowledged that it is not always an easy path to take. I feel more supported in my ethical journey now than I did before the course.

Paula Michals, NCTMB

The Dali Lama's course on ethics is the most interesting as well as comprehensive course, suitable for not only massage therapists; it is for all human beings.

Pauline Kosowan, LMT, Plymouth, MA

Nice reminder of how we all should act toward others

This course proved beneficial for the therapist/client relationship, but also as a guideline for all my relationships and even for life in general.
