What is Yoga Science?
The American Meditation Institute is a 501(c)3 non-profit educational organization devoted to providing comprehensive training in Yoga Science—the world’s oldest holistic mind/body medicine and the core principle of every spiritual tradition. Yoga is the sacred science that provides proven benefits by facilitating the union of the superconscious mind with the physical, mental and emotional elements of everyday life. Founded in 1996 by Leonard and Jenness Perlmutter, AMI combines ancient Eastern wisdom and modern Western science in a practical, empowering curriculum. The foundation course of this curriculum is AMI MEDITATION.

New peer-reviewed Clinical Study finds AMI MEDITATION® Reduces Burnout and Stress
Newly published research from the American Medical Association shows how the COVID-19 pandemic magnified long-standing issues that have accelerated the U.S. physician burnout rate. At the end of 2021, nearly 63% of physicians reported symptoms of burnout, up from 38% in 2020. Research shows that large-scale change is needed to address the physician burnout crisis.
The AMI Meditation® comprehensive proprietary curriculum has now been proven to bring more ease and less effort to the complex navigation of daily life. Having taught as a faculty member of The American Meditation Institute, and as a student of its teachings for many year, I can offer first-hand experiential affirmation of the power of the unique curriculum developed by AMI founder Leonard Perlmutter to transform an individual’s interpretation and response to the disorder of modern times.

SUNDAY MEDITATION
mindfulnessbox.com/interesting-facts-about-meditation/
Please join us every Sunday at 9:30 am EST on ZOOM for free guided meditation and satsang (philosophical discussion). Available to everyone – No experience necessary! The actual period for meditation begins with the sound of a bell. You simply sit in a straight-back chair with your head, neck and trunk straight, or on the floor with your legs in a cross-legged yoga posture if that is more comfortable. You will be asked to close your eyes and concentrate your silent attention on any name of the Divine Reality that you are most familiar and comfortable with.
