Testimonials
We’ve taught thousands of people around the world. Here’s what a few of them have to say about us, the course, and the effects of meditation.
INSOMNIA GONE
Lifetime insomnia gone! I'm much more able to tackle the challenges of running a business, dealing with family issues, navigating life in general.
EXPERT TEACHERS
Jillian and Michael are inspirational teachers, profoundly knowledgeable and kind. Learning to meditate with Michael has changed my life.
MEDITATION WORKS
I’m one of those people who really never thought meditation was something that would “work” for me. Happily, I couldn’t have been more wrong. I sleep better, I relax easier, and I’m happier.
ONGOING SUPPORT
I especially enjoy how after you finish the 4-day class, it's just the beginning. They follow up with helpful communication about ongoing group meditations, retreats, advanced training, and how-to videos explaining every element of meditation.
EASY TO DO
This is easy. I used to have a mental block that discouraged me from meditating. With Michael’s clear and simple instructions, I’ve now overcome that block.
IMMEDIATE RESULTS
It utterly changed my life. The biggest and most immediate result I found was a feeling of deeper physical and mental rest. A clearing of the mind and a peaceful feeling also quickly emerged.
LESS ANXIOUS
Before I knew it, I was feeling less anxious and more centred, all the while with a smile on my face and an overall sense of calm.
Less anxious, more centered
The hesitation to take the leap into practicing meditation lasted for many years. For over a decade, I explored the benefits, read books on the topic and even witnessed close friends reveal life-changing results. However, I remained "too busy" to find time to incorporate meditating in my life and struggled to keep up with the demands of my busy schedule of work and family, while finding a balance of happiness. It was time to change and meditation helped in ways I never knew were possible. Taking the introduction class at the New York Meditation Center was great and Michael was an amazing teacher. He helped make my transition into the unknown easy. Before I knew it, I was answering questions in my life I had put off for years, feeling less anxious and more centered in general, all the while with a smile on my face and an overall sense of calm. The answers to happiness have always been within, I just needed to be still enough to listen. Thank you!
Turn down the noise
We can easily get caught up, even totally lost in the myriad of daily activities, demands, rituals and frustrations we encounter. I like most others, found it difficult to turn down this noise. Then I met Michael Miller. His clear and inspirational teaching of Vedic Meditation offered me a doorway of opportunity to briefly enter a world of peaceful introspection with a delicious taste of harmony. The art of clearing your mind is powerful. It sounds crazy I know. I was initially very skeptical myself. But trust me, I immediately discovered that the results of investing in two daily 20-minute meditation sessions reaps incredible rewards. Those quiet moments begin to elusively influence your daily life. And it even gets better as I continue to meditate! I am so grateful that Michael taught me how to control the volume on the noise of life.
Easier to let troublesome thoughts go
I took the course in 2009 during the economic collapse. An old friend suggested I take the course to better deal with stress/worrying. It utterly changed my life. I still meditate daily and don't know how I managed before without it. The biggest and most immediate result I found was a feeling of deeper physical and mental rest. A clearing of the mind and a peaceful feeling also quickly emerged. I found the teacher, Michael, to be warm, intelligent and very inspiring. Everything was explained in an easy-to-follow manner in a safe environment. As the years go by I notice it's easier and easier to let troublesome thoughts go and just "Be". Senses are heightened; I notice especially hearing and smelling more clearly. I still look forward to my "20 minutes" every morning and am very grateful the course found its way into my life.
