“I am so glad I was there…there was such a wonderful, calm atmosphere which was beneficial for the work. I enjoyed all the exercises and found they helped to ground and centre me, cutting out those intrusive thoughts. It was like a promise to myself…an opportunity to deepen even more into a personal space within while at the same time not getting too serious about it…Thank you so much for your wisdom and gentle presence. I am grateful to know you.”
Janet, Belfast
“I very much enjoyed the course and your guidance and teaching and I hope that there will be further opportunities to build on the meditation teaching we have received. The gassho/tantien meditation and The Inner Smile meditation, The Micro cosmic orbit and the expanding aura meditations were especially valuable, powerful and uplifting. My view of meditation was altered…greater emphasis now on my feelings as opposed to thoughts, and accepting negative feelings as a learning experience; viewing the body more as a valuable tool to help our experience rather than trying to transcend the body.”
Irene, Belfast
