Beginner or well-practiced, Buddhist or non-Buddhist...do yourself an honest favor and check out one of their drop-in meditation classes!! They have Centers for practice in, not just East Hartford, but also Manchester, Old Lyme, Hamden, Hartford, and Guilford! Check out their website for class days and times! I just returned from their 'How to Transform Your Life Day Retreat' at the East Hartford location, and I am absolutely thrilled with the experience that I had today. I attended the event with my friend Dereka, a dedicated Yogi (and a Yelp Elite), who agreed that we will both be back for many more meditation classes. *HUGE thank you to Resident Teacher Kelsang Khyenwang for providing us with the her incredible wisdom, hospitality, and compassion. She taught all 4 classes throughout our retreat day with insurmountable love and sincerity. Each class during our retreat was about an hour long, where we were lovingly taught about basic Buddhist lessons that were aimed to teach us how to "step out of the ordinary of our daily lives" to be mindful in what we think, say, and do in order to positively transform our lives and those that we come in contact with. The lessons were so relatable and our Teacher explained them in a way that was not only easily understood, but also profoundly moving. I will absolutely be back for more meditation classes. In fact, when I come back, I want to bring my parents, my siblings, my friends, my staff...pretty much anyone who is willing to come with me. My experience here was THAT good. And trust me when I say you can be any religion, age, gender, etc to appreciate and learn from these lessons. Don't just take my review for it...PLEASE check out one of these classes for yourself!! It will change your life if you let it!!! *This is a 501-C3 non-profit organization that functions on volunteers-- make a donation today to help keep this wonderful Center up and running!!*

Offerings include rise n shine, yin, gentle, core, slow flow, vinyasa, healing circles, meditation and workshops. Sounds occasionally arise from the eatery below yet the focus, space and view outshine any slight distraction. Kristin's (the owner/chief yogini) teacher training (YTT200) incorporates anatomy along the way of the coursework with an optional YTT100 personal development program, only attending the first half. The latter is good for those looking to grow in the understanding of their practice without the commitment to a full six months, or with no inkling to teach. Kristin organizes yoga immersion trips annually. This year Peru and Bhutan. Next year Italy is back on the schedule. Check out a class, join a workshop or visit for Scott's healing circle, no yoga experience required. You will be even more grateful!

During the session, I heard him doze off a few times which gave me the hint he was finally relaxing!! When he walked out of his session he looked relaxed--more than I've seen him in a long time. Afterward he said he felt lighter and refreshed. We're both really grateful for the experience, and I would absolutely recommend Laura Ramirez to anyone looking for relaxation, stress relief, or a peaceful healing session.

She leverages her deep knowledge of Ayurveda when she treats her patients and each guideline she prescribes is a gem that is several times more valuable than Gold and Diamonds. She is your Best Friend and Guide in your pursuit for daily health and a long and healthy life. One should never leave her kindly association and stay in touch with he periodically to ensure that your health and well being does not slip out from you. Her careful, mindful, skilled, intelligent, and kind connection and periodic reconnection from our side will ensure that we will continue to stay strong and healthy and keep the allopathic doctors and allopathic medications away.

She is holding in her hands the very best of our great Ayurveda ancestors have handed down. Association with her is the association with those Ayurveda ancestors who have done a selfless favor to us which we will tend to forget quickly unless we hold hands with Dr Drashti TIGHTLY and CONTINUOUSLY!
