	"It is the stuff of fantasy for clients and psychotherapists alike. In the course of a few pivotal minutes or hours, the person experiences brilliant enlightenment and sweeping reintegration that not only last, but continue to grow for decades to come.

	Transformation is the direct result of a dramatic [[Connection Event]]. This even includes personal insight (archetypes, emotional blockages, trauma), political insights, spiritual insight (nature of Self, relationship to God, etc.), and other "revelations" that lead to a significant shift in the way an individual sees, and exists in, the world.

	"W.R. Miller and J. C’de Baca (1994; 2001; Miller, 2004) have characterized these events as Quantum Changes, because there is no apparent gradual transition but more of a jump from oneself to a radically different one. Currently these have been studied initially in cases where persons have given up alcohol, smoking, heroin, and other addictions as a result of the experience. A well known example is that of the founder of Alcoholics Anonymous, Bill W., who had a single mystical experience that ended his alcoholism."<ref>Hastings, Arthur.
