It took a year after meeting before we realized that we had an extraordinarily peaceful relationship like nothing either of us had experienced before. In the years since then, we have been astounded again and again by the peaceful nature of our union. We live with an amazing lack of conflict and an ever-increasing experience of joy, ease and harmony.

We believe that if you are open to the possibility of a different way of relating, of changing your frame of reference, a magical transformation can take place. We know from our experience that it is real and tangible, not a theory, not thoughts, not a collection of ideas, and it is so profound, that we both feel compelled to share it with others. To that end, we have written several books; write a weekly blog and newsletter; and give courses and workshops.

We live in Santa Barbara, California. Maude is from New York City; has lived abroad; worked with developmentally disabled people; sells antique lace and linen. Phil is from London, England; has traveled abroad; worked as a software developer; is interested in politics and philosophy.
