Hi Ramona, I’m truly moved that you took the time to share this. Reading how the Meditation & Mindset Workshop helped you release old patterns, gain clarity, and step into something better reminds me why I keep doing this work.
Workshops like the UNTHINKABLE 4-day are designed to give people practical tools to understand their mind, emotions, and past experiences, and apply them for real transformation. It’s always inspiring to hear how participants use what they learn to grow, and your experience is exactly the kind of result we aim for.
Thank you for being part of this, my journey. Thank you for your support. People like you are my hero. Wishing you and your family a wonderful holiday season and a New Year filled with continued breakthroughs and personal growth!
Ray and Antonella.

Ok wow wow wow, Elle! I’m moved to hear about your sister-in-law’s shift, that is exactly the kind of change that makes all the effort behind these workshops worth it. Seeing someone take the tools, apply the meditations, and actually experience improvements in mindset and health is what Think & Grow Education is all about.
The way you noticed her growth speaks volumes about the power of consistent practice and understanding the “why” behind what we do. Workshops like the UNTHINKABLE 4-day take this even further, helping people uncover deeper patterns, release old limitations, and connect their mind and body in ways that create lasting transformation.
Thank you for taking the time to share this. Knowing these experiences ripple out and impact others is why I keep expanding these workshops globally. Wishing you both a joyful holiday season and a New Year filled with growth, insight, and breakthroughs!
Ray

Hi.
Thank you for sharing your perspective. We’re glad to hear you found value in the 2-day workshop.

Regarding the comment that the “following workshops are a scam,” it appears to be based on assumption, as you have not attended those workshops, so its difficult for you to appear as authentic in your assertion as to the effectivness of our work, and the impact it is having across the globe.

The true value of any workshop can only be experienced firsthand.

When public comments are made in this way, they may unintentionally discourage people who are genuinely seeking support from exploring opportunities that could profoundly benefit them.

Your words matter, and it’s important to consider how your writing can affect others, especially those who are in need of guidance. Writing responsibly, as an adult, helps you ensure your feedback is fair.

At the 2-day workshop, we deliver around 9 hours of high-quality content, covering meditation, the mind-body connection, and how emotional patterns can influence physical health. Attendees consistently describe these insights as both enlightening and life-changing. We have been running these workshops for over a decade, with tens of thousands in attendance over that time, so its difficult to understand how you call these a scam, having been run for so long?

To further illustrate the impact of our deeper workshops, we share video testimonials from past participants, along with insights from respected medical practitioners and a well-regarded university lecturer, who explain the measurable benefits these workshops have had.

This helps guests make informed decisions about continuing their journey.

While of course we invite participants to explore these deeper workshops, this is always done in a caring, respectful, and non-pressured way. There is never any harm done in telling guests about deeper workshops we offer. There is no forcing or urgency, only an opportunity to discover more tools for growth if it resonates with them.

Personal development is a highly individual journey, and we wish you the very best on yours.

Hi. Thanks so much for taking the time to share your experience so thoroughly, wow. It’s clear you put a lot of thought into every part of the weekend, and I really appreciate that, truly. I’m delighted that you found the 2-day Meditation & Mindset workshop engaging and accessible, and that the science and practical explanations helped you understand how the mind and body respond to stress.
I completely understand your initial surprise when the next-level course was introduced, that’s a moment many first-timers experience. It’s important to me that people know that enrolling is always entirely optional, and that every step of the Think & Grow journey is designed to empower people to choose their own path.
What you’ve also highlighted is the unique nature of this work: while global speakers have moved on from Australia and offer their advanced retreats overseas at very high costs, we’re honoured to bring the full 4-day UNTHINKABLE workshop here for $1497, to Australia and now to our European followers. The "UNTHINKABLE" 4 Day Workshop is a carefully crafted program involving extensive planning, live guest speakers, logistics teams flying in from around the world, and my own personally produced meditations and content. We do this because we want people here in Australia to have access to transformative experiences without needing to travel internationally or pay exorbitant fees. Now we are in Europe as I just mentioned.
The UNTHINKABLE workshop is designed to go far beyond the basics of meditation, it’s where people really start to uncover and process old patterns, release limiting beliefs, and step into a more empowered version of themselves. Hundreds of people have already experienced profound transformation through it, and seeing lives change in real time is exactly why we continue to expand and make this work accessible.
I’m grateful for your openness, your curiosity, and your willingness to give the journey a fair go. That mindset is exactly what leads to real growth. I hope the next steps you take with the program feel inspiring and valuable, and I can’t wait for you to see how the deeper workshops support people on their path.
Wishing you continued breakthroughs and a joyful New Year! From my heart, thanks. Ray

Hi Katie,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience left you disappointed, and we’d like to clarify several points for context:
1. Meditation and Neuroplasticity
You mentioned the course was “not a meditation course.” In fact, the entire presentation focuses on how the brain is rewired during meditation, a scientifically recognised process called neuroplasticity. Meditation is central to our content, in fact we produce our own unique meditations, our own unique music tracks with our own unique frequencies, a testament to our success after over a decade of teaching.
And all attendees gain insight into practical meditation techniques alongside the science behind them.
2. Two-Day Workshop Content and Opportunities
You described the 2-day workshop as primarily a sales presentation. The workshop runs 9 hours in total over one and a half days, with only 40 minutes dedicated to offering interested guests an opportunity to explore deeper workshops, at then end of the presentation. This occurs after extensive high-value content, which hundreds of thousands of followers have found profoundly impactful. Guests are welcome to leave at any time if they do not wish to continue, there is zero coercion or pressure. The environment for further workshops is always safe, respectful, and non-pushy.
3. Healing Experiences and Participant Authenticity
You suggested that the “healing experiences” with certain participants were staged. We take great exception to this unfounded claim. The beautiful individuals participating in these exercises are genuine real people with real and serious conditions and pain, not actors as you claim. The emotional breakthroughs you observed are authentic, and our workshops have been run globally for over a decade, with hundreds of thousands of followers and stunning testimonials from real participants. We strongly defend the integrity of these experiences and the authenticity of the people involved.
Additional Clarifications:
All content is educational and experiential. Claims of extraordinary outcomes are always shared as participant experiences, not guarantees.
Staff are volunteers trained in facilitation and safety, and we ensure participants are supported throughout workshops.
Personal stories shared are part of his teaching methodology, designed to illustrate principles and build connection, never to manipulate.
We are proud to provide transformative education, meditation techniques, and deep self-awareness tools in a safe, ethical, and globally respected way. We regret that your personal experience did not meet your expectations, and we encourage participants to engage openly and responsibly when exploring personal growth opportunities.

Hi.
Thank you for taking the time to share your perspective. We are genuinely sorry to hear that your experience felt distressing. Personal development work can bring strong emotions to the surface, and we respect that not every approach will resonate with every individual.
We would like to clarify a few important points with care and transparency:
1. The Nature of Deep Transformational Work
Deep, transformative workshops are meant to be challenging. Meaningful change often requires individuals to question long-held beliefs, emotional patterns, and identities formed over decades. This can feel uncomfortable at times, as it involves breaking emotional habits and ways of “being oneself” that no longer serve. While challenging, for those who choose to participate fully, this work has proven to be deeply effective, as reflected in the genuine stories and testimonials of many participants who attend our workshops.
2. Care, Choice, and Safety
Participation in all processes is voluntary. There is no coercion, no pressure ever during our workshops, nor obligation to take part in any exercise, including the QAC process. Our facilitators encourage self-responsibility, consent, and personal boundaries at all times, and participants are free to engage at a level that feels right for them.
3. Emotional Awareness
We recognise that 'emotion' is complex and deeply personal. Our work is educational and experiential, designed to offer insight and self-awareness. We regret you felt unsettled, and agree that transformation at this level is challenging, however, its also beautifully liberating. We delivered with respect and care.
4. Stories, Testimonials, and Claims
Experiences shared during our workshops are those of real people, and reflect individual outcomes rather than promises. These stories are offered to inspire possibility, not to create expectation or pressure.
We acknowledge that personal development is not for everyone, and we respect your right to hold a different view. At the same time, we stand firmly behind the integrity, intention, and impact of our work, and the many individuals who have found clarity, empowerment, and positive change through participating.

Elle,
It’s clear you had a strong reaction to the workshop, so it’s important to clarify a few things for those reading and deciding for themselves.
First, the event is not marketed as a silent meditation retreat. It is an educational, experiential workshop exploring meditation through neuroscience, psychology, biology, and the mind–body connection. Meditation is taught and practised within that context, alongside explanation and application. Many attendees value this integrated approach, particularly those who want to understand why meditation creates change, not just practise it.
Ray’s work did not emerge overnight. It is the result of many years of learning and writing, and it has gained the support of medical practitioners who recognise the educational value of his approach.
Second, the style of delivery is intentionally direct, immersive, and challenging. This is not accidental. Transformational work, by its nature, disrupts familiar thinking patterns and emotional identities that may have been reinforced for decades. For some, that feels clarifying and empowering; for others, it can feel confronting or uncomfortable. Both reactions are valid.....and neither implies manipulation.
Regarding the live demonstrations: participants are never forced to take part. These processes are voluntary, time-limited, and designed to illustrate principles in real time....., not to diagnose, treat, or replace professional care. Observers are free to disengage, step out, or simply watch without participation.
Claims of coercion or “on-the-spot pressure” do not reflect how the workshop is structured. Guests are free to leave at the conclusion of the event. Further programs are offered optionally, with no requirement, urgency, or obligation. Many people choose not to continue and are treated no differently for that choice.
Finally, the suggestion that this work preys on vulnerability overlooks the thousands of people who attend willingly, return by choice, and share their experiences publicly. These are not actors, nor are their outcomes scripted. If this approach were manipulative or unsafe, it would not have sustained participation, testimonials, and global growth over more than a decade.
This style of work will not suit everyone, and it isn’t meant to. We respect that discernment is essential, and we encourage anyone considering personal development to choose the approach that genuinely resonates with them.

Hi. thanks for sharing your perspective. We’d just like to add a bit of clarity around how the 2-day workshop is actually structured.
The workshop contains around 9 hours of exceptionally prepared teaching content across the two days, focused on the science, the psychology, and the lived application of the work. In fact, a video is played to the guests narrated by a top medical lecturer who completely endorses Rays work. This same workshop is attended each year by tens of thousands of people across multiple continents, which speaks to the value people consistently get from it.
Ray, as the main presenter, spends around 30 minutes at the very end of the second day briefly introducing people to deeper courses — and that’s done transparently and respectfully. In fact, Ray clearly says something along the lines of “If this knowledge resonates and you feel you want to go further, there are options available for you to consider", allowing people who don't want to hear about more deeper workshops, to leave.
Importantly, as mentioned people, including you, are free to leave, not pressured, not cornered, and not obligated in any way. For $20 you were given cutting edge information. The reason the courses are mentioned at all is simple, they genuinely work, and many people want to know what the next step looks like. We understand that you didn't and you were free to leave. The doors were open and ready for you.
Also just to correct the pricing, the courses are offered very generously, with entry points starting at $387, not “thousands,” and we have stunning testimonials that speak to the real-world impact of both the workshops and the online programs. in fact, we are the only global trainer at this level, who offer courses in such a generous manner.
This work isn’t a sales exercise for Ray, it’s deeply personal and deeply important to him. The invitation is always there, never a push, and the choice is always left with the individual. We wish you all the best on your journey.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I do need to gently point out that your assessment is based on only a partial experience of the workshop. you left at 2:30, and arrived late at 10am, missing the important morning introduction.
The workshop is very clearly advertised and explicitly stated multiple times on Day 1, as "not just about meditation, but about the science behind meditation". In fact, at 9am on Day 1 a short video is played explaining exactly that, and at 9:30am Ray reinforces it by saying "he could sit and meditate with the room for hours, feel relaxed, and then send everyone back to the same life with the same challenges" which isn’t the point of this work. you've commented on the wrong workshop.

The intention of the workshop is to teach people how to meditate in a way that connects mind and body and creates lasting emotional and physiological change, not just temporary calm. That’s why the science, the “why,” and the “how” come first.

You also didn’t attend Day 2, which includes a deeper and more profound meditation experience, nor did you see the testimonials shared on Day 1 from people who explicitly say it was "understanding the science behind meditation that created real shifts in their lives, bodies, and relationships". that's why its laid out the way it is.

Ray stands by the way this workshop is delivered because it’s been refined over decades and attended by tens of thousands of people worldwide, with consistent, measurable results, that's why his following grows daily on Facebook, because "the work, works". Having sat through only around 4 hours, it’s difficult for us to agree with your conclusion about the overall experience.

That said, we truly appreciate you sharing your perspective. And as a holiday gesture, we’d like to gift you a free seat so you can attend the full workshop, experience the meditations fully, and then make your comment. Ray would love to have you back.

From all of us, Merry Christmas! We hope to see you at the workshop and give you the full experience of what it can offer.

Hi there Janene, and thanks for taking the time to share so openly about your journey. I truly appreciate your honesty, and I can see the courage it takes to face such real and ongoing challenges. Four stars tells me there’s still room for growth and refinement in the experience we provide, and that’s exactly why we are always exploring new ways to improve, refine, and expand our workshops and courses. In fact, we have hired a branding team to help us take our workshops to the next level and really impact people even more. So thank you again.
It’s inspiring to see your self-awareness and willingness to do the inner work, even when it’s tough. Navigating compassion and forgiveness for someone who has caused deep hurt is not easy, and your openness to understanding the roots of his behaviour while continuing to focus on your own healing shows incredible strength.
I really do hope to see you at future workshops, where we’ll continue building on these teachings and creating new tools to support your growth. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us shape experiences that empower more people on their journey.
Wishing you continued breakthroughs, clarity, and a happy New Year.
Ray

Hi and thanks for sharing your experience. I hear you, and it sounds like you were expecting a workshop that’s mostly about long, relaxing guided meditations. That’s totally valid, and many workshops are designed that way. But that's not us. In fact its explained in the advertising before you enrolled and by Ray Behan, the main speaker, at the very start of the day, giving you an opportunity to leave, in case you had misread the original ad you enrolled using.
Our Meditation & Mindfulness Workshop is structured differently. The focus isn’t on sitting for hours to feel relaxed; it’s on understanding the science behind meditation, how your mind and body interact, and how meditation can create lasting emotional and physiological change. Even the shorter meditations, like the 10-minute ones we do in the workshop, are designed to teach people how to connect mind and body in a way that produces real results.
In fact, many meditators who spend just 10 minutes in the morning and 10 minutes in the evening, fully aware of what’s happening in their body and mind, see transformations that go far beyond what longer “relaxation-only” meditations provide. It’s this combination of knowledge + awareness that allows people to truly shift their emotional state, mental clarity, and even physical wellbeing, sometimes in ways that defy conventional medical expectations.
While this approach may not be the “relaxation-only” style you expected, it has been refined over decades and attended by tens of thousands of people worldwide — with consistent, measurable, life-changing results.

Vanja, thank you so much for sharing this. I’m genuinely happy to hear how the work has supported your mindset and your life, seeing people embrace forgiveness, self-love, and emotional awareness is exactly why I continue this work. The 4‑day UNTHINKABLE Live Workshop takes this even further, giving people tools to go deeper, uncover old patterns, and step fully into their potential.
Wishing you a Happy New Year filled with continued growth, clarity, and breakthroughs, I do hope to see you at a future UNTHINKABLE workshop! I appreciate your comment. Ray

Hi Paddy. It's Ray here. The team brought your complaint to my attention. I've only just finished travelling for the year, so I have time to deal with important matters, so I want to write the following to you. First, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I am genuinely sorry to hear that aspects of the day felt stressful, this was never our intention at all Paddy.
We acknowledge that parking and venue logistics in city locations like Dublin can be challenging, and clearer communication around this would have helped. The mention of yoga mats was intended as optional; as the meditations are primarily seated, space limitations meant mats weren’t required on the day.
I’m also sorry that you felt unsupported prior to the event. You see our team operates across different time zones, but we are actively improving our systems to ensure people feel heard and responded to more consistently.
While external logistics can sometimes fall short, our intention is always to create a space for meaningful inner change, and many attendees still experience powerful shifts through the teachings and meditations themselves.
As a gesture of goodwill, I’d like to welcome you back as our guest at a future workshop, and I’d also like to offer you complimentary access to our latest guided meditation, so you can experience the work in a more relaxed setting. It's been voted by meditators as "the most powerful meditation ever". It's called THE QUANTUM FIELD MEDITATION.
Thank you again for your feedback, it genuinely helps us improve as we continue to grow internationally. If you want to take up my offer Paddy, just email my PA here "dee@thinkandgroweducation.com.au

With Gratitude and hoping you have a merry Christmas. Ray
