“Dear Amanda,
I wanted to share with you once again what a profound effect your yoga workshop had on me. It’s like everything has shifted into “real time” after years of living in fast motion. Sunday I spent some time cleaning the house, a task I usually feel a lot of negative energy around. This day I cleaned slowly and lovingly and almost joyfully. At work today I moved much more slowly and clearly. Instead of rushing to a meeting and feeling a pushing sensation throughout it, I felt much more peaceful and relaxed. I’ve listened to your new CDs and have found them so useful already. I love it that they are composed of awareness experiences as opposed to strictly asana instruction. I have been doing a regular Buddhist, sitting meditation practice for about 3 years and have found it quite useful. But nothing feels as profound or transformative to me as the experiences that you lead. Maybe the fact that I’ve done the sitting meditation helps me go in deeply. Anyway, you are on to something, girl! And I am grateful that I get to taste it. Many thanks for sharing what I know must be years and years of deeeeeeep work. I feel so blessed that you live close by and I get to learn from you.”

“Dear Amanda,
Another thing I’d like to share with you 5 days after your workshop. I’ve been listening to one of the awareness experiences on your new cd’s every day. It’s usually at night before bed. Last night as I lay in bed after listening to one, it felt as if a very tightly coiled, tangled ball inside me was unraveling and gently untangling itself. An interesting sensation!”
