Reviews

Today's meditation was serene, filled with so much love and warmth.
The music was calming and uplifting, like a warm blanket covering ones entire being.

I felt like this meditation and your words of today, resonated deeply within myself — my brokeness and sadness, that I am facing, but also a prayer for my fellowmen and European neighbors of Ukraine 🇺🇦.

I wish though, that you could write down the words in Hebrew, (I believe), that you are using in your meditations of this "Psalms Of Summer" —series, either on each track's Description Box, or maybe make a lecture and/or a live session inside "Insight Timer", to explain the words and their profound meaning.
I personally would love that, as the language nerd I am. 🤓

Thank you for calming my heart, my mind, and my body, with this one. 🙏🏻

Much love ❤️ and light 🕯️from Viktorija!
