What Our Participants Have to Say
“After completing the Art of Living Part 1, I found myself to be calmer with a more positive and optimistic view on situations. I was surprised at how emotionally free I felt directly afterwards. One year on and continuing with the techniques taught on the course, I feel this has given me the headspace to make some important decisions in my life which I'd been struggling with previously.”
“From day one of the course I was able to sleep after relying on sleeping pills to fall asleep, I knew then that this course was for me. I felt like my system got a total re-boot and even though life’s challenges still come my way (difficult relationships and a stressful job) I seem to deal with them much better, with a smile on my face, rather than let the problem take over.”
“The course touched a cord with me. From a very anxious frame of mind I felt some calm during and after. It opened the door to a world I had no idea existed; the wisdom gave me faith and empowered me to find my self and my peace. I was lucky to have the spirit of enquiry and Art of Living did the rest.”
“The Art of Living Part 1 was my first glimpse beyond just fitting in and surviving London life. I realised there was a lot more to life than I’d been settling for. Now 5 years on my life is completely different, I am happy, I am working for myself and I am thriving - I am very grateful that the course found me, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone.”
