A powerful tool

I have learned so much about myself. I have more control over reactions from situations, and therefore my emotions. Putting away my expectations and being okay with uncertainty, and knowing that I have the option to control my reactions is really powerful.

Inner peace

“I am feeling more inner peace. The [MBSR training] fits everywhere in my life.
It’s absolutely working for me. I love the trust we [the class] have developed together”.

Saying “Yes” more

I enjoyed the community of the group and especially the loving kindness meditations. I loved the poems. I learned the “pause” is important and use it daily. I am saying “yes” a lot more to life because of a renewal of curiosity. We learned about this in our meditation teachings.

Life: easier

I really enjoyed the class. [The teachers] did a fabulous job. I am meditating again after years. It’s so centering. I can focus and calm down. My life has been much much easier. The pause has really helped. Grateful for the compassion meditation.
