This made me realize I should revisit the introductory course from time to time 🧘‍♀️

Thank you for this. Might you consider putting the ads at the front or the end so that it doesn't disrupt the meditation?

Love the amount of advertisements you have in here, completely ruins the program.

i typically hate listening to sam talk as he overexplains his convoluted way of thinking, but he's probably got the best voice for doing guided meditations. i hate the fake _C a L m I n G_ voices other guides put on, and some others just have grating or distracting voices altogether (sorry mindvalley guy lol)
