Reviews
Nathan Olson
I’ve been meditating somewhat consistently for 5 years now but after your training I’ve been doing it twice a day without fail. I also quit drinking, I wasn’t a heavy drinker to begin with but between that, the meditation, and really getting serious about my health I feel like a totally different person. My resting heart rate has dropped 10 beats/minute in 3 weeks! I was already very healthy and fit before all this but you’ve unlocked a whole new level of clarity, sustained energy, and peace of mind.
Jane DeLong
The training more than lived up to my expectations (which were very high!) I’m so glad I took the leap and trusted my gut on this one!
Vicki Shillington
Thank you for a remarkable weekend! My practice is a real joy and has been added to my prayer practice that I was already doing twice a day.
What I loved most was:
- The key concepts you decided to share
- The way you described each concept via metaphor and analogy
