Reviews

a beautiful and timely course for me based on wisdom teachings and practices to be more present, grounded, compassionate-and the last session…trusting. The latter I find especially challenging in this moment of national turmoil and destruction. So finding and sustaining trust is what I need now. Thank you! 🙏🏼
