Great interview keen to find out more about both these teachers and start practising really stopping and feeling the good things more conciously. Thank you. 🙏💛

So insightful + inspiring!! Looking forward to real life application. Thank you 💫

Transformation does not come in a sitting but rather a lifetime of experiences and thoughts. I’ve been indulging the bad wolf lately, but I can say from experience “feed the good”, the reward is priceless.

Thank you 🙏🏽 ❤️
