I am in a stage of my life where I have to face various health issues. I have found your videos when I most needed them. They give me a profound sense of serenity and centeredness when I need it most to regain my health. Thank you for sharing.

I am so happy to have found your channel. Since then I have listened to a different practice every day when I wake up usually around 4am, and after listening to you I feel so calm, turn over and am mostly able to get some more sleep. Thank you so much! 💖

Ayla: I still don't know if You have CDs for sale or not.
I don't like to compare those who guide but still I am compelled to do so. In my eyes, You are the best teacher I came across on Yoga Nidra.
