Before finding this meditation I was a mess of stress and anxiety...even over the smallest things in life! This meditation has made my life a million times simpler and changed my perspective on life as a whole. I am so much more resilient in situations that used to get me down, able to express myself better, it has rid me of constant nightmares allowing for a more restful sleep and more productive days, improved sooo many of my relationships and has truly increased my energy & even my skin and face is brighter and smoother since starting. I always joke and tell people that meditation is my Botox ;) I am also a competitive figure competitor which requires extremely regimented meals/eating plan alongside a huge allotment of time to the gym daily for a solid 4 months out of the year (on top of my full time job)! My body response to my training and diet this year has been unbelievable smooth in terms of fat loss and I attribute it entirely to meditating and ridding myself of stress which has in turn aided in my weight loss. So amazing! I realized no matter how much I exercise to take care of my body, I must also take care of my mind. I try to come for an hour a day (more when I can) and travel frequently with a wacky work schedule; anyone can fit this into their schedule! I leave feeling so refreshed every time. The teachers here are wonderful and genuinely want you to succeed. I have only completed 2 levels of 7 and am so excited to see what other changes will occur as I progress. I could go on for hours about the wonders that this center has done for me! I now realize what a necessity this is in life :)

I have been out of practice for a bit so this was a nice re-entry point. While the music and instruction and very quiet setting were different from my preferred yoga style, I will say that Angelina was a good teacher. The sequencing of the flow was great and I felt very challenged. I also appreciated how engaged she was with each student in different ways and the hands-on assistance she provided. I've been doing yoga for a while but there are still postures I'm confident aren't exactly right. She helped me correct a few and I was very grateful. She also recognized my flexibility and gave me additional adjustments/gentle pushes to get deeper into some postures. I also appreciated Mo at the front desk who was very nice and welcoming. Sometimes, when I come to smaller studios where everyone knows each other, I feel out of place but that wasn't the case here. Thanks, Radiance!

The venue nor the organizer had them for guests who may have forgotten or just didn't read that part, not even for purchase. There's a Walgreens nearby so I bought some. By the time I get back, I'm told that the organizer was refusing to conduct the class because of bad energy or vibes..or something. Nothing can be done about that. We're not going to argue. However, they refused to conduct the class and refused to refund our money...almost $60 each. I received a small candle...probably less than 5 Oz. That is all. A business can choose who they service, but to refuse service and refuse a refund because of what you deem as bad energy or vibes really is horrible business and I would say unethical. It's an interesting place, but the customer service needs improvement.

I started attending here this year and I finally feel like I've found my home. After experimenting around the city with various forms of meditation, it was this place that I really seem to connect to. They offer so many beginner classes that are free to all such as the Thursday evening meditation and the Wednesday Heart of Recovery. If you have something donate, you may, and if you become a member there appears to be so much available at such a low cost because access to healing should not break the bank. I am so grateful for this beautiful center.
