Hi Carrie,

I just wanted to say a quick thank you. I’m at module 3 in the course and have been feeling quite overwhelmed by it all, some of the books i have been reading from the reading list, whilst being very interesting and opening my heart and mind to new ideas, have at times left me feeling inadequate and incapable of what I am learning.  As an example I am reading meditation and mantras at the moment and had got myself completely over thinking meditation, sure that if I don’t have a specific space in my house to meditate, exact time of day and length of time to do it I’m just setting myself up to fail, yesterday I was so sure I had got it all wrong having even signed up for the course in the first place  I mean who was I kidding right?

But today I watched your module 3 workshop videos and was reminded that we all have to start somewhere that really meditation is easy and can be done anywhere at anytime.  Yes try to do it every day and be consistent but i dont have to have my own spot in the house that no one else ever goes into to be able to do it. I also did the 30 minute forgiveness meditation after the workshop, i have never meditated for more than around 15 mins and thought i would have no chance of going 30, also thinking this would leave me feeling the activity would be impossible.

It was an amazing 30 minutes,  I cried and felt about some things I didn’t even realise I still cared about, I thought I had already forgiven and let go but this brought out more from me, and the 30 minutes flew by. I will admit I did this one laying down but I feel like meditation is within me, I felt tingling in my body a lightness and after it I felt great, exhausted but great. I am looking forward to trying the activity meditation now instead of apprehensive.

Thank you, thank you for making the course relevant and accessible to everyone and for making people feel that being human is ok.
