Meditation has helped me…

I’ve been able to find calm, and sleep- better than I’ve ever had before! I look forward to future classes with you. It all seems so simple and yet such a hurdle to start, but very do-able. Thank you.

Quieting reactions

I learned a lot from everyone in the [MBSR] class-the different ways we all struggle. I learned to take time to listen to others; and quiet my reactions.

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 (MBSR) 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.

Really enjoyed the silent retreat~

The variety of meditations and the different movement exercises made it easier for me to stay focused and release stress. Afterwards I felt more grounded, at peace, and able to see some things in my life differently. Thank you so much!

So very grateful…

I want you to know how grateful I am for you and your contributions (mindful book club, MBSR) to our beloved community, and for your leadership and accompaniment!

MBSR Evaluation

My “wandering mind” has calmed over the 2 month course. I can easily identify when I am lost in thoughts about the past or the future. I like this new feeling of my “mind at peace” and this enough incentive to continue practicing.

A very special experience…

I really appreciated everyone’s willingness to share their experiences and be vulnerable with the class. It was a very special experience to learn in a group setting. It was exactly what I needed in my life. It was truly life-changing.

I am learning…

that I can be more present with others when I make time to be present with myself. I can choose to be gentle with myself when I notice resistance to [practicing] meditation.

I appreciate…

the active nature of the course- that is, practicing the techniques of meditation to help the participants to enter mindfulness.
