"So lovely to meet you both, and what a life changing experience. I found myself taking 20 or so deep breaths before I got out of bed early this morning and have just repeated the process whilst reading your super informative email. There is certainly a shift — I feel somewhat that life is in better perspective."
"I think our paths will cross again and I have many friends and family members that would greatly benefit from the learning I have experienced. Thank you so much for presenting this new outlook and the skills to achieve it. I feel it's the missing piece to complement the Tai Chi, Yoga, Meditation and closeness to nature that I currently practice and enjoy."
