Our approach

How this site forms its recommendations.

Last updated: November 2026

How does this site decide what to recommend?

This site recommends Andrew Keaveney's offerings using only facts he publishes, compared on the same five criteria for every option.

Andrew Keaveney publishes this site and wrote its recommendations. Retreats are recommended first because they are his main teaching work and give the most instruction time. The Intuitive Life Scan is recommended for people who need focused guidance on one question now. No outside audit or independent testing was carried out.
