I feel deeply sad to hear of Anne Brown’s passing. I had limited contact with her, but very much admired her and appreciated her many contributions to the method and to numerous participants and providers over the years. I knew of her work in Atlanta, and feel so grateful for all she did – and for her heart and spirit.

I feel deeply grateful for knowing Anne. I met her at the Atlanta Retreat a couple of years ago. I was in her group and this was the first face to face group I had encountered. I remember doing my deepest cycle ever and receiving the gentle, kind support of Anne. I felt shocked hearing of Anne's passing. I appreciate that I experienced her compassion, love, kindness and caring being in her last inch group recently. Anne, you are held so close by many. May you be blessed with love eternally! Thank you for touching our lives with your gentle and strong spirit. Love, Denise

I will miss Anne's soft voice and warm presence. She shared her life and skills with me. I will treasure the her last moments with me more than any others. I admire her dedication. I want to say "goodbye" but I know that some people do not like goodbyes.

I will forever remember your beautiful, soft, soothing voice and how it was so relaxing and calming for me!

I have so many feelings and memories as I think about Anne. I feel so much sadness that she has passed. And I feel so much happiness as I remember her warm and wise words. I am smiling as I remember that soft, lilting, gentle voice of hers. I have closed my eyes and listened to her lead a feelings check many, many times over the years.

Anne Brown was my very first cluster group provider. I immediately sensed a spiritual connection to her. I believe that having Anne as my first provider really got me off to a great start with the method. I remember being Below the Line about feeling like having so many obstacles in my way with regards to getting the method incorporated into our program. Anne coached me through a cycle, and I popped! I still use my grind-in today. Since my start with Anne, our program has run approximately 8-10 Wired for Joy groups, and currently I am doing 2 advanced groups.

I was lucky to have been in my first telegroup with Anne and 3 subsequent telegroups, plus getting to meet her at a retreat PLUS the opportunity to have many private coaching sessions with her. My nurturing inner voice is modeled after her. I adored receiving tender morsals from her. I adored her and am so so lucky that our paths crossed.

I do imagine that all who knew Anne were blessed by her life, her presence, her knowledge, her understanding, and her love and commitment to what was good and right. (I remember many years ago her passionate desire and work to protect a stand of trees in a suburb of Atlanta--trees that were in the path of a housing development. I don't remember what happened to those trees, but they surely had the best advocate available on the planet!)

I'm grateful for the chance to express my deep appreciation for Anne Brown, who had an amazing gift of soulful wisdom and a heart that seemed to gather you up and hold you close with just a phrase or a glance.

I've learned so much from Anne. So much about love and hope and embodying Solution Skills--really living the skills, moment by moment.
