What Participants Say about Yoga Science as Holistic Mind/Body/Spirit Medicine

“When I first took the class 19 years ago, I had just come home from studying in the ashrams of India, and was blown away by the content. Ram Lev examined the different teachings I had learned in greater depth, refocused them in a modern-day context and then wove them together into a practical framework I could immediately begin using. The possibilities for growth born from studying these ancient truths are endless.”
— Amy Laskowitz, Educator & Mother

“There’s not a day that goes by where I don’t see the positive effects of the teaching and practices learned from this course. I have learned how to cultivate deep, heartfelt relationships, to manage and reduce stress and trauma, to have work/life balance, and how to fulfill my life’s purpose. My life is joyful because of this. The teaching is invaluable.”
— Suzanne Martin, Marketing Ops. & Mother

“The American Meditation Institute is a treasure. In the 6 week course I’ve discovered the most profound teaching and philosophy for living in the world. This course provided me with a comprehensive starting point to learn about and practice AMI Meditation and Yoga Science.”
