Completely and totally recommend SOULutions services. It has been one of the best decisions I ever made to learn more about becoming a WHOLE person. You will find out about who you are, your personality, your gifts…as well as all the things in your life that potentially block you from realizing your full potential, in your work, your relationships (and yes, even your dreams). Worth every minute. I highly recommend SOULutions to anyone —Marissa

Trying out various traditional therapies before, I always felt like there was something missing. I never thought I’d find a therapist who could help me uncover and explore those many layers I was beginning to believe were impossible for me to get to until my first session with Michael. His outside-the-box perspective with his intuitive, healing approach gets to the core of things. —Amelia

I feel better. I feel more alive. I feel more whole, grounded, clear-headed, and absolutely more positive about my present moment and future. I had tried traditional therapy, medications, and countless “quick fix” strategies within my own life. Nothing compares to this work, if you are serious about LIVING. My recommendation could not be stronger for this gifted, selfless, and unconditionally loving man-he gave me the awareness to find a life that I could love. —Ken

From my very first session with Michael, I knew that I had found the portal into my next stage of becoming. To say that my work with Michael since then has been transformational would be an understatement. It has been the vehicle for me to discover who I truly am, to love all of who that is (finally!), and to achieve a level of consciousness and awareness that I never even thought possible. —Ian

SOULutions does amazing and heart centered work. There guided breathing meditations are truly a breathe of "fresh air." Like nothing else, when un-sticking and movement are needed, Michael and SOULutions are there to guide and compassionately support —R.D.

I believe for me that if you are completely ready to work on your path and to participate in all the experiences, you will have the most fantastic journey of your lifetime. The FIRE of Wholeness Breakthrough Experience is powerful beyond words and it works! Thank you, Michael for giving me my life back. —M.J.L. Atlanta 

Having been a participant in the FIRE of Wholeness Breakthrough Experience and Embracing Your Shadow workshops with Michael has been a powerful and profound healing experience. I've never worked with anyone else that has exhibited the level of acceptance and understanding that is so evident in Michael's approach to his students and clients. I understand and respect myself on a deeper level than ever before because of my interaction with him and for that I am truly grateful. —B.B.

Michael is the real deal. His FIRE of Wholeness Breakthrough Experience was one of the most significant, positive experiences of my life. It did exactly what he said it would — allow me to ascend from being a servant of my ego to a person fulfilling his core purpose. If you wonder why nothing you do seems to make you happy for very long, you’ve come to the right place. —A.D.

I definitely recommend Michael’s Embrace Your Shadow course. After taking it, I felt less anxious about myself and I understood the source of my insecurities. I was able to forgive some people who hurt me. It’s helped me become more confident in my social life and my classes. Michael rocks! —A.S.

I have worked with Michael for over a year now and have experienced wonderful transformations in my life. I didn't realize that I had so much deep seated emotional crap buried within my body. His work has helped me to release this and live more fully. I am on my way to living with joy and purpose!!! —Scott

My first experience with Michael Casteel was a group event known as the Dolphin Meditation. It was the most transformational I had ever had at that stage of my development. I have since seen Michael for numerous private sessions. The benefit is immeasurable. For someone who has been referred to as “emotionless”, I was able to release pent up emotions in a safe non-threatening and loving environment. I would highly recommend doing work with Michael. —Lee

It’s not easy to face down the things that cause you the most hurt and shame, but I am glad I found the courage to do it with Michael’s gentle guidance. Once I embraced my shadow, all of the fear, insecurity and humiliation left me. I will never again be haunted by my past. The feeling of freedom and release is indescribable. Everyone needs to take this class and meet their Shadow. The world would be a better place. —J.S.

Michael Casteel's workshop Embrace Your Shadow helped me take a giant step in looking at my greatest fear, the fear of disapproval from others. I now embrace with humility my imperfections and love my humanness and at the same time see the sacredness in my life. This inner work has transformed my life into a glorious adventure. —J.L.

Although it is true that Michael Casteel possesses a depth of training his greatest asset, his ability to meet his clients where they are, can neither be learned in a classroom nor acquired in a training workshop, but it is one of his inherent abilities. Once this point was identified, Michael gently and supportively assisted me in re-framing beliefs, experiences and events. At the appropriate time, Michael brought me into the process of co-creating the life for which my soul longed and which was my inherent right. As a result of working with Michael, I am living a life beyond what I would have imagined. If you are experiencing dissatisfaction with any aspect of your life, and are ready to deeply explore the causes of it, you are prime candidates for this work. —A.R.F.

Michael has created a haven for me to reveal my wounded-ness. I consider myself a spiritual person and the exercise of guided meditation coupled with counseling has proven to be very healing. His sincere interest in me has been affirmed time and again, especially the unanticipated late night phone call that he accepted. He spent over an hour providing wisdom, guidance and love. I appreciate him so much. —Brenda

Confusion, tension, stress, fear, disconnection - these are not signs of craziness, but they could be indications of fragmentation and unfelt feelings inside yourself. I didn't know what wholeness was until I met Michael, and boy was I grateful when he introduced me to it! What an empowering and enlightening journey it has been, and will continue to be! You have a choice. You can continue to feel like there are a thousand things under the surface that you can't quite reach, or you can ask for someone to help you reach them. I recommend with all my heart that you ask Michael. No one will judge you less, care for you more, or understand you as much as he can. —Cassie

The FIRE of Wholeness transformational program is GREAT!! Michael Casteel’s FIRE of Wholeness transformational program was a Godsend for me when my life felt like a mess. I knew after one session with him that I had found hope in releasing dysfunctional ways of thinking and emotional issues around my core wound. The second session felt like a miracle because I was able to experience the Essence of who I really am and he led me to a truly holy place. The practice that he created for me to do at home led me to amazing forgiveness and empathy that I had not known was possible. I knew without a doubt that my grievances that I had with others were not justified. Michael truly has a gentle, loving, and intuitive way of guiding that has opened me to a new way of feeling compassion for myself and others. I feel such gratitude for him and the amazing work that he does. —J.L.

This was a priceless journey! Michael is very much like a guide, one who has been there and knows the way out. He is clear that his gift comes through him and not from him. My story is similar to many. Functioning as 'normal' for all appearances, but emotionally exhausted from carrying baggage I pretended not to see. This is not your typical talk therapy. Michael has a plan and a system and walks with you step-by-step. Words cannot express the feeling of finally seeing yourself through the eyes of one who holds no judgment. "Falling in love with one's own soul" is a beautiful way to describe this process. Your perspective on your life events — past, present and future — will be forever colored by what you learn through this process. Growing to love, forgive and cherish every part of yourself is priceless. A fascinating journey, which leads you to a place, that feels like home. Thank you, Michael! —Name Withheld

"I have read all of the books on spiritualism and studied all the religions of the world. I spend two hours everyday in meditation and prayer. Today, with Michael, was the first time in my life I have ever felt the grace of God, the Creator, the Source of all life. It was healing and peaceful, and powerful and expansive all at once. Thank you, Michael. You have saved my life." —Jackie

Michael Casteel is my Life Coach. He is helping me be the person that I was born to be. I am trying to get back some of the traits that I have lost due to the life experience that I have had. Michael and I do this through talk therapy, self-discovery exercises and Conscious breathwork. The wonderful thing about breathwork is that the discovery that you find while doing it is more honest...more authentic. When healing occurs during breath work the healing feels deeper. I feel that it has allowed me to grow and heal much faster than traditional therapy. I am extremely grateful to Michael for his help and guidance. My life experience is so much more rewarding now! —Kathleen

Michael knows exactly what it is you need, are lacking, what is wanting to burst through to the surface. He helps you to find it out for yourself; he helps you go deep to see what it is you are really wanting, need. You discover things about yourself, which are wonderful, elating, awakening, frightening and even terrifying but he is there with you, to bring you along. Michael wants you to grow at your own pace. If you make a commitment to yourself, Michael makes a commitment to you as well and he will always be there for you. —Adam

Within my journey of seeking my true self, Michael has opened up many avenues of personal growth. The experience of the breath work has influenced the very core of my existence and purpose both spiritually and physically. The essence of my daily stride is one of greater mindfulness and happiness, unbeknownst to the expectations we commonly engrave in our lives. For all those that seek greater wisdom, love and personal healing, SOULutions will transform every facet of your belief system. With love and gratitude —H.H.

It wasn't until I began to connect with my breath that I began to understand who I really am. Now I call the shots, creating the reality that I desire. It was a battle for my life and Michael lead the way, never giving up. He saw through my defenses and loved me anyway. I have literally become a new creation and will always be grateful to Michael and his service for the rest of my life. —Levi

Well, where to begin…Michael was introduced to me by my girlfriend, at the time, and we began seeing him for couples counseling. Michael immediately won my respect, attention and trust. He worked weekly with us on several areas of our relationship that needed exploring and fine-tuning. He listens, tunes in, analyzes and understands deeply to help. Michael's sessions are what you make them and always reassuring and helpful no matter what it is you're hoping to work on or uncover. So, I began going to him on an individual basis, as well. Well, after nearly eight months now my girlfriend has gone from being a "small piece" of my life to the major support…she quickly went from Fiancé to Wife!!!, I am proud to say, and in no small part to the valuable work we put in with Michael's guidance and direction. Now we are expecting a baby! I've since decided to continue on exploring Michael's talents and counseling, as I am consulting with him as my Life Coach. His worth is endless! I highly recommend his spiritual and life advising services. Oh yeah, Michael was the one who married me and my wife, Elizabeth! —Joe 

How does one express their gratitude to the person who gives them life? I know that may sound a little corny but that is what I have received from the work I have done with Michael. Before this work I was functioning to some level but I wasn’t living. I needed help! My first experience with Michael’s work was at a Dolphin meditation, I knew from this experience that I wanted to use this work to help me on my journey towards finding what I was looking for. I was stuck in an unhappy emotionally volatile life. I developed thought patterns that kept me stuck in making the same decisions, decisions that did damage in all areas of my life. I lacked the ability of good judgment and took no responsibility for the condition my life was in. I was diagnosed with was Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Disassociate Disorder, I wasn’t sure what this meant but I knew I had found a direction to move towards. I took this information to Michael and we began our work. There are no words that exist that can express my appreciation for where I am now in my life. I have tools that will continue to help me through out my life to make better decisions and to feel connected to my world. I have found what I was looking for. —Swan

Michael was just what I was looking for and desperately needed. In my transformational year, Michael took my journey to another level. He raised my consciousness to a deeper level of truly understanding myself better and the meaning behind years of incorrect expression and behaviors. Michael helped me "peel" away many layers to get to my true self so that I could get clear on what it would take for me to lead a truly fulfilling life. I am at peace like I have never been before. And the deep breath meditations have enabled me to let go of the things I needed to release from my life so I could move forward to a better life. Michael has truly helped me beyond my expectations. He is just the best at facilitating truly transformational work in his clients. And he does this with much love and gentleness. —Kathryn

Michael is a gifted teacher and coach. He’s used his own presence and insight, plus a variety of techniques and exercises, to help me reach personal goals around being happier, dealing with my job, and family life. I got his name via a friend’s recommendation and recommend him to anyone who is looking for help and willing to look at themselves for the solution(s). You can get a pretty good sense of his capabilities and commitment to this work by meeting with him. —Name Withheld

I came to Michael two years ago an absolute mess. I was a suicidal drug-abusing alcoholic. My self-image was shattered and I was constantly attracting toxic relationships. He has helped me to release decades of trapped anger and caused me to look at myself in a new and wonderful light. —Name Withheld
