Meditations (guided & silent) were wonderful. I really appreciated the progression of the sessions. I loved the stories about Amma and the lightness, humor and compassion brought to the sessions.

Had many beautiful moments and insights in walking meditation. This to me is fundamental in demonstrating how we have the opportunity to be aware in any place, at any time, no matter what we are doing.

The supportive environment deepens my experience in meditation and strengthens my connection with Amma. I am starting to rest in silence for longer periods. This is really inspiring, can hear Amma saying not to give up, to keep moving forward with my little candle.
