Such a relaxing meditation. Had back surgery and the recovery is difficult. Meditation helps! Appreciate your soothing voice…

Having nerve pain in leg after surgery and found draining pain out of soles of feet to be calming

Thank you. Your soothing voice helped me relax and have a reprieve from a chronic pain; even if for a moment, it was welcome.
