I stumbled into a meditation course by Jillian and Michael in 2010. During the retreat itself I noticed some immediate changes: a certain joyful, bubbly cheerfulness came up. I noticed that I could focus better – I would read the news and actually remember what I had read. Back in day-to-day life, I found that regular meditation helped me deal with the stresses of my job, and generally made me happier. I would walk into the dreadful 7am morning meetings wearing a smile. I would also meditate ahead of social occasions, as I found this would make me more talkative and outgoing after having meditated.

In 2013, as I started gaining some spiritual awareness, I redoubled my efforts both in meditation and other spiritual practices. As I did this, my perception of the world started to shift. I increasingly saw and experienced the world as a more beautiful, peaceful and friendly place. I attended a rounding retreat in late 2013 by London Meditation Centre. In retrospect, that retreat gave my spiritual awareness a further boost.

The experiences from meditation were life changing. I would recommend it to anyone. I look forward to attending further courses by Jillian and Michael, and am very grateful to them for their ongoing support of former students via the regular group meditation sessions.
