In Students' Words
"I wanted to express my appreciation for the the class we finished last week, and more specifically, for the peaceful and serene "energy" you brought to it. You have a great healing presence!
The past few years, I have been on the lookout for examples of people who integrate philosophical/spiritual insights with living life in "society", and have not encountered many as of yet. Being in this class was inspirational for me in that I got this opportunity. So much thanks!
Many of the interests you shared during the class resonate deeply with me. The significance of a philosophical orientation to life, the exploration of different religions and spiritual conceptions of reality, metaphysics, alternative medicine, wellness, literature, and the pursuit of living in accordance with one's "dharma" while seeking peace and balance—all these topics captivate my attention.
I particularly enjoyed your clear and open intellect with your ability to see different angles of each situation and your weariness of rigid forms of thinking and being.
Well that's my little letter of appreciation! Would love to stay in touch." - Abe 2023

"Slava is one of the best instructors and you guys couldn’t have picked a better person to teach this class. I’m so glad we were able to have this class ... it gave us so much good information to take away and all of it will better us as therapists. I feel the class also opened many doors and we got to see a lot of what eastern medicine has to offer and how well these practices work... This class has introduced us to many new things we could specialize in if we wanted to." - 2021

"Just letting you know I’m making mandatory for myself to mediate once a day. I went to park today barefoot with my daughter, No cell phone for almost the full hour. I did 12 minutes of mantra meditation, 15 of focus meditation, and the breathing that involves changing the nostrils for ten. I will say the meditation is kind of crazy because 10-15 minutes didn’t feel like that at all - it felt way shorter. Needed this class, big thanks for all this stuff!" - 2020
