Testimonials
“You will be surprised just how much this will help your inner peace. With some effort and patience and some work everyone can feel more at their center and content within themselves. Don’t wait to take care of your spirit/mind and the body will follow.”
– Past Participant
“Morganne is very knowledgeable, accessible and good at creating a healing energy within the group.”
– Past Participant
“Mitra is a quiet, brilliant teacher who presents the material in a well- organized and accessible manner. He balances “lecture” with practice in a perfect ratio. He teaches us HOW to do the practice and then we practice. I feel like I have tools to bring with me. Because we actually did the practice during the workshop, I feel layers of healing have happened already. Thank you.
— Maureen Anderson
