I really miss Larry Rosenberg. The center has lost its shine since Larry has faded away from…read moreteaching. He was my first teacher in 1980 and I am forever grateful for his teaching. The center now seems to promote special groups "sanghas". I began practicing because of the Buddhist view of non self and non identification to self, so it seems to me an antithesis to Buddhism of integration and inclusion. I also feel that communication from the center is aggressive about raising money. Volunteering is only for friends of Narayan, or so it seems because she has the final say in approving or rejecting a volunteer. In full disclosure, I have been practicing since1980 but moved away from the center to explore Tibetan Buddhism. After attending a day retreat in July I tried to reconnect by responding to a request for volunteers. I was turned down by Narayan with no explanation. That being said I am aware that many lost souls can find solace in the appearance of the projected peace at the center.

CIMC is a wonderful place. The teachers are all brilliant, kind, generous, and understanding. Each…read moreof them offers the teachings of the Buddha in their own way - making them accessible to a wide range of people who come to learn about and practice meditation. Meditation is described as more than sitting on a cushion - it is a way of living life, of listening to ourselves and others, of becoming kinder and more compassionate. The actual building is beautiful, simple, and welcoming. If you haven't been there - try it! It can become your spiritual home, as it has for me.

I have tried many many kinds of meditation, i felt like everything still there when i went back to my daily life. But this meditation method was very different from other. I couldn't understand clearly where my mind comes from and how to get rid of those mind clutter & habits in order to find my true self. Each step has a different method and great enlightenment. Even from 8 years old kids from 80 years old people can meditate together with a simple and easy method. I truly hope you can give it a try at least 1 month and see how your life changes!!

I was considering attending one of the Meditation/Group Reiki classes that I had found on Meetup and reached out to schedule a free consultation (not a requirement to attend one of her classes). Alex got back to me quickly and we met for a consultation that week! During our initial meeting, everything felt right and I chose to receive my first healing - Life Activation. My life began to shift immediately! I got a new job, was finally able to move out of an apartment that I'd felt stuck in for years, and felt ready to begin to address issues that were keeping me from growing and connecting with my higher self for years. Since receiving Life Activation, I have gone back to Alex for Ensofic Ray, Spirit Activation, Negative Energy Clearing, Shamanic Aura Healing, and Soul Retrieval! In my experience, each service is like a little (or giant) booster that helps me to power through blockages and accelerate my healing and growth. You still have to do the work, but Alex will help you to remember that you can and that you're worth it! About 8 months into my healing journey I am amazed with the progress that I have made. I am so grateful that I have made the decision to heal and continue to make that choice; I do not believe I would be where I am today without the support and guidance that I've received from Alex at Empowher You.
