It was a sunny afternoon and Mantradevi began to lead us through a guided meditation. Sunlight from the skylight was shining in on her. She said, ‘Just leave everything behind except for this very moment. You are here now.’ “In that very instant, it brought me completely present, like all of sudden all my energies became aligned in one direction and I was focused. I was present on that one moment. My experience was very deep and profound and I was never the same after it. Meditation has become one of the most profound, interesting and deep parts of my life.” 28 year old writer, artist and student Clarity' is currently enrolled in the Ananda College at Laurelwood, majoring in Education for Life. Clarity has been practicing meditation for 10 years and yoga since she was 13 years old. |

The most insightful advice I received during my Meditation Teacher Training at The Expanding Light seemed so obvious, however it turned out to be life-changing. Besides learning many techniques to deliver a quality meditation experience, it was the discussion on reasons to continue developing my meditation practice and personal growth that inspired me to be of service to others. “It is the days when I don't want to sit for my own practice that I am reminded that unless I find ways to push past my own resistance; it could be difficult to instruct others. I was told that, ‘students can spot a phony.’ “From this training it became clear that in order to deliver meditation, I needed to continue my own practice of deepening and expanding. Since MTT, I have completed the YTT 200 program and am scheduled to attend Yoga Therapy training.” Eleanor from Redondo Beach, CA, teaches a weekly yoga and meditation class for a group of patients through a holistic medical clinic. She’s conducted meditation classes for a variety of yoga instructors as part of their classes along with some private sessions. “Meditation Teacher Training offered so much more that I ever expected. I have great admiration for all the staff and teachers at The Expanding Light. They clearly reflect the benefits of living a God-Centered life and I will always be grateful for the path they have set before me to follow as it continually enriches my life.” |
