My third visit here is ended and my fourth will begin, now. Charles provides a vehicle. A framework of Zen beauty for us all to follow with wisdom and compassion. A precious thing. 💫

Charles, thank your for such a lovely spiritual journey! I’ve completed the course today and I’m so moved — the last visualisation made me tear up, such an embodied experience. This path you created helped me get through some tough times with a detached view, indifference, calmness, strength and humble acknowledgement that whatever is, is the way of the Tao… I’ve never felt so strong yet supple, so courageous yet receptive. You truly touched my heart and soul. NAMASTE.

Thank you for that!!! Powerful and needed practice. Be here now is hard we all need to be here now. There is apps and profit makers out now because people are unable to sit with themselves. This practice is highly spiritual and challenging but it’s the medicine needed in today’s world. Thank you.
