Testimonials about the Courses & Experiences

I’ve been attending these groups for over a year now and I have found them to be transformative. Ti0 offers a truly unique perspective on psycho-spiritual development, one that is grounded in practical philosophy and hard-won insights of his own. It is immediately apparent that Ti0 is an astonishingly wise and perspicacious teacher.

He is exquisitely sensitive, able to detect the subtlest nuances of psychological dynamics and zero in where people are stuck. I continually marvel at Ti0’s ability to cut through to the core issues with surgical precision. This might all be very intimidating if it weren’t so well balanced with genuine humility and compassion. He is a profound teacher and also, importantly, he is disarmingly relatable, never posturing as the all-knowing guru. And he’s pretty funny.

I have been working with Ti0 for 3 years now. At first it was strange for me to work on consciousness exploration with him as I have known him as one of my closest friends Rohan long before I knew him as Ti0 the consciousness development facilitator.

Despite my reservations, the work we have done together has been super helpful. Ti0’s style is unique. Unlike my experience with conventional therapy, there is a strong emphasis on using our own power to further our knowledge of the self and keep moving forward.

When I started working with Ti0 in 2018, I had severe depression, poor physical and mental health, and several addictions. Through several techniques and exercises outlined in the Study of Self, I have had several insights on my anti-patterns. And as mentioned before I was able to use my own power with the support of a close-knit community to overcome a lot of them.

I don’t want this testimonial to be seen as some ridiculous infomercial as seen on TV. So, before I share some of my results, I’ll say this, the work is not a magic pill. You get results based on the effort that you put in.

A few key takeaways,

  • I was able to let go of my hypochondriac tendencies, and this has helped me improve my physical and mental health. 
  • After several years of struggling with the auto-immune disease Lupus and using meds that were having severe side-effects, through working with Ti0 I started understanding the source of the Lupus, stopped the meds, did the inner-work, and two years later got a negative diagnosis for lupus.
  • I have overcome my dependency on substances like cannabis and alcohol. The techniques also have given me a greater understanding of the root cause of my addictive tendencies and how to work on them.
  • The group sessions have been immensely supportive in working with grief and trauma. They helped me process the sudden loss of my father, a near fatal accident, and several other heavy experiences.

Most importantly, the understanding that I am always a work in progress has given me the will to keep showing up for myself.

Learning from Ti0 has been life-changing and unlike anything else I’ve encountered. I find it difficult to express myself, but he has this uncanny ability to get to the heart of the matter and bring clarity to the chaos. It’s empowering to have someone see you for your potential. Ti0 is patient and supportive without enabling me, I feel safe to be raw, weird, messy and go at my own pace. 

Each meeting challenges me to push myself a little further, try different perspectives or see new possibilities. The lessons I’ve learnt so far have been mind-bending and working with him [and the group] leaves me feeling more optimistic than ever before.

“Ti0 is an expert at asking the right questions to challenge assumptions, shift perspectives, and uncover solutions and strength within oneself. He is able to get to the heart of issues quickly, in a straightforward manner, yet also with great sensitivity, patience, authenticity and wisdom.

The group sessions are invaluable. They provide a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space. Though each member is going through their own unique struggles, I’m often amazed by how much we have in common. Listening to others talking with Ti0 often gives me new perspectives on my situation.

It’s been two years since I joined the group, and it has been a lot of hard work, but Ti0’s Study of Self course has been incredibly beneficial to my healing and personal growth. I’m truly grateful for the journey thus far.”

After two and a half years of work with Ti0 and the group, I can still say that it is the most effective and realistic spiritual work I have engaged in my life. When I joined, my first son was born, I was 27, living abroad with my wife. I had been feeling depressed most of the time for half a year or more.

The work with Ti0, supplemented by psychologist meetings and punctual emotional coaching (IFS), have been very useful to overcome these specific depressive feelings (not the symptoms only but the core of it). Since then, I have been feeling depressed, but the difference is that I know it’s caused by painful wounds that stay dormant in my psyche. I now know how to dive into it with more strength than before. The work taught me how to really heal the roots of my traumas, and the guided meditations and personal feedback of Ti0 during the sessions have led me to express and release many of these.

Other very noticeable changes that occured while I have been part of the group are : the soothing of my relationship with my parents. The possibility to enjoy life more than before. The new perspectives on what I considered before evil and “bad” and how these projections were repressed in myself. The possibility to take the most out of any life experience that presents itself to me, without feeling like a victim but choosing willingly to engage, knowing that it participates in my awakening of consciousness (and not making me more unconscious or imprisoned in the matrix).

The group also offered me the possibility to commit to something that I consider the most valuable throughout my whole life: taking responsibility for the development of my own consciousness, getting my power back, becoming whole, reaching unity in my Self.

Study of Self offers a practical, no-nonsense approach to personal development and philosophy through an array of topics not typically focused on the usual groups. I’ve done a lot of courses, retreats, workshops, did coaching, did traditional therapy, did hypnotherapy, taken a fair cocktail of medications, read countless books, listened to countless podcasts and more for over a decade, and can say with confidence this is very different material, and different in how the material is engaged with. 

It’s by no means a replacement or silver bullet to all the other things I’ve mentioned, but rather the binder to all of them. Paired with the small group sessions, the course offers a very safe supportive space, has a great accountability factor and applied knowledge to them too. I highly recommend this course to people looking to heal and improve their mental health, or level up their existing knowledge in a safe environment.

Personal development is my hobby. I’ve learned and practiced many techniques and used number of tools before starting to participate in study of self. I found it the most practical and life-changing journey I’ve ever been on. I’ve started on it 3 month ago. The course opens up new topic every week, allowing one to practice one of the seventeen exercises for a week and bring findings/questions/reflections to online discussions and/or discussion in the group setting. 

I have to admit that I underestimated the power and benefits of the group participation. It truly helped me to shift into more authentic self – something I’ve tried but could not succeed on my own. I also learn a lot from the experiences other group members share and feel I am connected to a like-minded individuals. I am amazed at how skillfully Ti0 leads the group and the powerful mind-blowing questions he poses. It’s been a blessing discovering this course, become part of the group, and being led by a facilitator who is real, knowledgeable, supportive, and encouraging. 

 
 

I started working with Ti0 half a year ago. Since then, I’ve done both group and private sessions regularly. He also offers a variety of modalities to help with healing, such as guided imagery and sound work. What drew me to choose Ti0 was his transparency and the intention to help me to become independent from him. He believes that the answers and solutions to my problems are within me, and his role is to guide me to find them. He encourages me to take responsibility for myself and supports me in becoming a self-sufficient individual. I have found his approach to be non-judgmental and empathic, creating a safe environment for me to grow.

I benefit greatly from examining my experiences, thoughts and feelings from different angles, so our Sunday group meetings with Ti0 helped me become more objective. Therefore I am always eager to share my reflections and hear other group members’ feedback.

One of the significant breakthroughs I made with Ti0 was acknowledging my automatic behaviors. I observed that my thoughts, opinions and desires change throughout the day and often contradict each other. I also noticed that external factors influence me and that I can sometimes make decisions I regret later. Working with Ti0 helped me realize why this is happening and which steps to take to minimize my automatic behaviors.

Another significant improvement I have made since working with Ti0 is that I now feel like I can connect with other people again. My childhood friend is back in my life and so is my family after many years being apart. Not only do I feel more connected to other people, but I also feel more connected to myself. I had lost the trust to make friends with other women, and working with Ti0 has also inspired me to establish healthy connections with female friends. Today I am glad to see more and more female friends in my little community, and I see the positive impact it has on my well-being.

One of the long-term effects that I want to point out is the realization that the work on oneself is not a finite journey; there’s always more to discover and always more to be curious and surprised about. This realization brought about a more positive outlook on life and a greater appreciation for the journey that I’m on.

The insights I got while working with Ti0 encourage me to keep going even when I’m feeling stuck. I keep reminding myself that I can always take a fresh perspective from our Sunday group meetings. It also reminds me that I can ask for help and I am not alone in my struggles. Ti0 has the skill to create a trusting environment for all group members where everyone feels safe when sharing difficult matters.

Overall, Ti0 is one of the most brilliant people I know. He always has something insightful to say, and he’s always able to make me laugh. I truly appreciate your work, Ti0. Thank you for creating this wonderful project and making yourself available for us!

My experience thus far has been overwhelmingly positive.

I think my favorite things have been the study of self videos, and the virtual group discussions, especially when you’ve weighed in on people’s personal challenges. I think I’d like to try one-on-one sessions, but I also enjoy meeting the other folks in the group and learning about their own personal journeys. I would love to continue this work and the discussions. The videos have been divinely timed in the way they synchronize with my life and events or movements of consciousness, I go back to them often and rewatch them and take notes for my personal reference – I love what you have to say and it all makes sense to me! 

On that note, I think you are an excellent communicator of  concepts around a practical spirituality and creating and maintaining conscious awareness! I have struggled to find mentors who could communicate as clearly as you do, far too many times the mentors I’ve found are too cryptic or perhaps secretive and gatekeeping information or simply what they say is full of conspiracy theories and doesn’t resonate with me, and I find it hard to internalize the teachings. You are incredibly well-rounded in your communication and background in psychology and spirituality that it almost always resonates well with me. Not only at an intellectual level, but I can also integrate your wisdom into actual practice of building my conscious awareness and maintaining balance in my life.

You’re also very direct and a little pushy during the group discussions, but it feels safe to me, and I think that being forceful is sometimes necessary when dealing with people who often suppress or block their own nature/energies because it’s the patterns we’re trapped under, so we need help from a mentor in pushing past that conditioning. That’s truly transformational and that kind of discussion feels very sacred to me, especially when witnessed and respected by others. That’s definitely what makes the Infinite Zero experience worth it for me is your personal touch and way of communicating and holding sacred space.

Ti0 is a genuine, intuitive-healing spirit that is open and non judgmental; this is vital in establishing trust and a sense of belonging. Our path crossed at a time when I most needed it and I received support and tools to work through some serious sadness and a sense of loss that had me trapped for years… It was and still is a process, but I am in a much better place.

Ti0’s approach is generous in regards to the amount of time he spends with you and how giving he is of himself. The sessions are not “magic”, they require work, commitment and honesty with yourself to benefit and you also learn from others in the group as they process. I am very, very grateful to have met Ti0 and to have had the privilege to work with him.

There are few people who have the clarity to look at and through the real matrix we all live in, and this powerful gift that Ti0 has cultivated is invaluable! The course & Ti0 helped me see through the various traps I was caught up in since childhood and self-perpetuating even today! It’s incredible how quickly I’ve been able to change some deep rooted issues which kept me in a loop of endless suffering. A powerful experience for anyone who is ready, which I think is very important. This is not something to try out just for fun, this is deep work.”

In my first online consultation with Ti0, we talked about a very sensitive matter to me. He helped me to connect that with an early experience in life in a very deep way. His presence was warm, authentic, comforting, grounding… and I knew I could allow myself to explore that matter this time. He held the space for me in a way that I never experienced before: he gave me time, all his attention, wise and precise instructions (in triggering moments) and very revealing feedbacks. I felt safe. And it’s amazing to me how a single consultation could be so much healing. For that and his devote and honest work, I’ll be forever grateful.

Q: How is it different from other self-help / coaching?

@dragonfly

  • Ti0’s direct approach, or “pitiless compassion”, as he sometimes refers to it.
  • An eclectic, dynamic and ever-evolving psycho-spiritual philosophy, from the teachings of Gurdjieff to lucid dreaming techniques.
  • Consistent, long-term attendance of group members.
 

@Liis

The focus is on healing core wounds as opposed to the symptoms/surface level behaviour. There are no set ideologies or formulaic frameworks, we each receive our own tailored approach.

Q: What is your favorite aspect of this work?

@Liis

Connecting to others on such a profound level [and laughing at myself].

@dragonfly

  • Having a safe place to be truly vulnerable with people I trust and respect.
  • Having an opportunity to look at my own dysfunctional patterns, blind spots and the many obvious and not so obvious ways I am attached to suffering.

Q: What could someone expect / not expect?

@dragonfly

  • Expect to be challenged.
  • Expect to discover some ugly and beautiful truths about yourself.
  • Expect to really care about people who live thousands of miles away and who you’ve never met in person.
  • Expect to feel all the feels.
  • Expect to view yourself and the universe differently.
  • Don’t expect to easily explain what you’re doing to anyone who isn’t doing this.
  • Don’t expect to be coddled (but do expect to be held).
 

@217

I don’t want this testimonial to be seen as some ridiculous infomercial as seen on TV. So, I’ll say this, the work is not a magic pill. You get results based on the effort that you put in.

@Liis

  • Don’t expect this to be like anything else out there
  • Expect insights. So many insights
  • Expect any certainties you have about yourself (or in general) to unravel
  • Expect your life to change, if you’re ready for it, it will happen

Q: What is your least favorite / most challenging aspect of this work?

@Liis

Being vulnerable is the most challenging (but worthwhile) aspect.

@dragonfly

Not being able to use the dysfunctional/defensive strategies (people pleasing, savior complex, blaming/victim identity etc.) I’ve used over the years.

Q: What keeps you going / coming back?

@dragonfly

Not being able to use the dysfunctional/defensive strategies (people pleasing, savior complex, blaming/victim identity etc.) I’ve used over the years.

@Liis

The truth. Witnessing my life transform.

@217

The group sessions have been immensely supportive in working with grief and trauma. They helped me process the sudden loss of my father, a near fatal accident, and several other heavy experiences.

Most importantly, the understanding that am always a work in progress has given me the will to keep showing up for myself.

Q: Why would you recommend this to someone?
What could they get from this?

@Liis

Ti0 has helped me grow in every area of my life, so it’s difficult to single out specifics. Ultimately, if you put the effort in, I believe you will find whatever you’re seeking because Ti0 helps to creatively engage with our challenges to find a way forward.

Earlier we used the word course to describe what we are offering and you may still see course used in places where we have not yet updated our site or in old blog posts and videos. We updated to use the term “training” for the following reasons:

  • A course is understood to have a set outline and structure where one comes to learn.
  • We are also not calling this a training “program”, because a program is pre-defined, it is fixed, and indicates a set routine.
  • Training indicates a dynamic, active method that includes learning and application with personalized guidance, which better reflects our approach.

Gift Yourself With Insight & Empowerment

Rather than give you a “free gift for signing up”, such as a pointless 10-point ebook full of drivel, or a podcast episode that is already freely available, we prefer to encourage you to gift yourself with something of real value. 

Our content and courses are packed with insight, tools, and guidance to help you explore the depths of Reality and evolve through the endless levels of Consciousness. This may seem like a tall promise — rather than believe us, come try it out for yourself. And if you are disappointed, we will help you transform that too…
