History of the Intentional Design Program
For over 40 years, Mary Dennis has been on a quest to understand the person place connection and the experiential effect of place. Her life-long passion is to create healing environments. What she has learned over the years is: We all experience physical, mental and emotional environments every day of our lives. These environmental experiences affect our attitude, understanding, and our responses to our current situation and largely define us as individuals. Our entire range of emotions, from pleasure to depression can be experienced as a result of our surroundings. Our emotions have a psychological effect on our bodies. Our psychological wellness, along with our cardio- vascular system, neurological system, immune system, and endocrine functions are all interlinked and affected by environmental experiences.
Intentional, environmental designs influence and enhance well- being. Through the correct placement of all things, a new order is physically generated to foster harmony and balance. The occupant’s intentions and hearts desires are integrated through a conscious choice of elements and energy. It is a soulful alignment, which is called Interior Attunement. Interior Attunement occurs when the inner physical aspects of self are aligned, as a result of the intentional design. Through this alchemy an inner sense of well-being is experienced and valued.
Through the School of Graceful Lifestyles, Mary Dennis created a template of Intentional Design, which results in creating calm, ease and grace. Purposeful innovations and research enhance well- being. Teachings create a template to sustain a lifestyle that is timeless, resulting in a soul satisfying, experiential design.
Mary Dennis is a magnificent embodiment of Divine Chi! As a teacher, she gives from her heart, with crystal clarity. I am infinitely grateful for this experience. This course encompassed a tremendous amount of very useable material. I am excited about all that I have learned and the path of learning that will continue to move forward.
I could not have predicted how terrific this program would be. Beyond the information – which is prodigious – your energy and teaching style made it a valuable and inspirational education, which is sure to accelerate both my professional and personal life.
Wonderful evolving and transformational experience. Well worth the investment!!
Mix equal parts of love, professionalism, wisdom, experience and humor and you get Mary Dennis. What a deal, what a joy!! Thank you.
This course has given me focus, insight to challenges and opportunities I would never have imagined experiencing. Your knowledge and wisdom has grounded me and my business. I for-see success no matter what comes my way. You are my light. Thank you.
Dear Mary Dennis, thank you for a soulful, empowering experience. You are a brilliant presence and I benefited equally from your presence and teachings. This program was exactly what I needed and I learned so much. I am excited to begin using what I learned to create a home of beauty and harmony.
I was delighted to learn that, by following the template, I could design a room. I was also amazed at how simply, clearly, directly and compassionately Mary Dennis responds to client questions. A great model to follow. Thanks.
Mary Dennis’s dynamic presentation and easy step by step guidance has turned me on for the first time into my passion for Design & Color. I am very grateful to the lifestyle re-design course that has empowered and propelled me into a new paradigm view of myself as a consultant.
Mary Dennis thank you for a fabulous class that has married feng shui and interior redesign into a powerful tool for me to create incredibly healing homes for my clients.
From the moment I met Mary Dennis I knew I was in the presence of someone very special. I had an immediate resonance with her energy and her level of conscious awareness. In my early years of studying energy healing, and feng shui, I use to put my focus on what I am going to learn from this class/teacher. In recent years my focus has been directed to how can this teacher/healer support my conscious awakening and further my development as a practitioner of the healing arts. I am no longer driven to the knowledge piece, rather the vibration of the practitioner, and how they can help raise my own vibration and Mary Dennis did just that.
Right away you know you are in the presence of someone who is living the work she is teaching. She is direct and to the point and pushes you to be all that you can be, all that she knows you are capable of being, as she is not attached to your story. The growth I have attained in the short time I have known MD is remarkable. The 5 Day Redesign program was all that I thought it would be and then some. Her manual for the class is so comprehensive you won’t need to purchase another Feng Shui book. The class broke down barriers in my approach to Feng Shui and how I analyze and design a space. MD invites you to step out of the box and take your practice to the next level. Her class is definitely worth the investment.
This program has given me a wealth of knowledge and interest to further pursue learning in designing interiors and in Feng Shui. I am eager to begin a new career and feel I have the continued support of Graceful Lifestyles and all the new colleagues I have met. The experience was wonderful. Mary Dennis is a blessing to my life and a true inspiration.
