Testimonials

Revolutionized my daily life. As a busy student with a job, my plate is always full, I highly recommend making time for this course to reduce stress and improve focus.鈥 鈥揃ryn, USM Law

I was practicing meditation for five years and it was difficult. During the first session of SKY, I went so much deeper into meditation than I had ever gone.鈥 鈥揝antosh, UIUC

SKY made me very conscious of my thought patterns, and conscious of a sense of self that exists independent of those thoughts and different moods. I have found a daily practice that is something I鈥檓 relying on. (And this finals period has been largely stress free, mainly because meditating removes most of that stress!)鈥 鈥揝arah, Harvard
