I wish everyone could have a chance to pause from regular life to step back and ask “How am I using my energy? What is the purpose of my life?”
I took the YDC is 2015. I am so grateful that I took this time. After having raised a family it was a wonder to have 3 months where all the planning was taken care of. This allowed me to start to practice resting in the moment. The beauty of the Ashram and the high quality of the food were also very nourishing.
This set the stage for inner work, which can very challenging at times. It is so powerful to reflect day after day for 3 months with the same people.
I have noticed an increase in health and strength and more calmness in my nervous system as I stay committed to the practices I learned from these teachings. I can speak to large groups with ease. I have returned to playing guitar and singing. I now have a group of like-minded individuals that I continue to reflect with. With deep gratitude I see my life has improved in all ways since doing the YDC.
