Program
We are now living in a glimpse of turbulence in different parts of the world. Not only physical health like
pandemics that we are facing but also mental health issues becoming apparent to ourselves and people around us.
Stress and Burnout, Depression and Anxiety, Worry and Fear, Insomnia and more. Together with competition that
forces us to develop new skill sets to survive in today’s global disruption. From critical thinking to
creativity, to effective communication, to problem-solving skills, to adaptability, to emotional intelligence,
to time management, to empathy and more. How to deal with such overwhelming situations?
Let’s use the tree analogy.
To have a green and growing tree, a strong root is needed to stand against heavy rain and storm. Same to our
lives, to overcome challenges and difficulties we need a healthy and strong mind.
A tree without fertilizer is like a mind without meditation.
You can live without it, but with it, life will be easier and happier. It is your choice to incorporate this
element into your life ingredient. Also, to have a robust trunk, good habits are needed to cultivate. At the
same time, breaking bad habits is necessary to start the new chapter of life and not go into the same vicious
cycle. A balanced lifestyle, not too strict or not too loose, is the answer so that a tree can have beautiful
branches compared to the four facets of life; physical, mental, social, and financial, where you have a strong
body and mind with good relationships and success. Such a dreamy life, right? Yes and it is possible if you
know the roadmap! This training can give you tips and how-to to make life more delicious in its own way.

What People Think About Us?
I have learned from the on-line program much more than I ever thought I could in such a short time. I am a much calmer person, much less stressed and have physical benefits from it. I used to have a lot of stomach aches; I was always clenching my jaws from being stressed and since I started meditating that is all gone. I also found that I am a nicer person to my friends and I am able to focus better on my work.
Emilia Frost

I think more than meditation you become more sensitive and you really act differently. So, the way you think is different. The question for me was like " Yes, I need to change this, I am doing this wrong, maybe I can change this, how can I, etc
Barbara Favetto
Australia
I was surprised at the experience and how it changed me with all the encouragement to work on myself. I saw that by working on myself I naturally wanted to be a positive example and wanted to see the positive values that we were working on in ourselves. I wanted to see that naturally being worked on and a way to achieve it in my immediate surroundings through meditation.
Max Raphael
United States
One thing which really helped, was getting rid of some habits that were not good. Like not talking in an endearing way. So it really helped me. It helped me to explore myself, know more and explore the changes within myself. It has given me some peace that I've never experienced anywhere, just getting in touch with myself.

You start feeling a lot different and you start behaving differently towards other people. It’s very interesting because it’s mixing very ancient wisdom and new technology and helping more people all around the world get connected to the inner peace
Alexander Suárez Parra
Colombia
"I really like this self-development program, and especially the daily entries. This is the way to discover yourself, to evaluate yourself, to understand yourself better, and what is important and what is not so important like to have a good relationship with your family, with your friends, and to see goodness in others."
Anastasiya Lashuk
Belarus
"The questions in the program help me to think about myself, and how do I really behave. It is so easy for people to say “I think that I’m good”. But when I asked myself I started to analyze myself, I become more tolerant."
Kardelen Yaman
Turkey
"I learned the importance of being mindful about my speech, about my behavior, about my activities. It brings good results to be mindful, you are more conscious about what you do and then you have good results, good behavior, you give and you receive."
Imigul Cengiz
Belgium
Thank you for this wonderful meditation. I absolutely lost the sense of time! I enjoyed the vibration of the mantra that helped me to still my mind and fill a bit of peace after a hard day of work. I’m so happy! I shared my meditation with my friend, and we have huge smiles afterwards.
Justyna Szczepaniak
Spain
Meditation helped me reflect about what I was doing in my life and who I was with and the kind of relationships I had, my actions, my speech, everything. It made me see the importance of just being in the moment and not constantly thinking about the future or about the past.

Frequently Asked Questions
Message from our co-founder & CEO, Ping Ping
Meditation is not a self-hypnosis as it doesn’t work in the same way. Specifically, our meditation technique,
the Center of the Body, has a key focal point on stilling the mind to a point where it can rest completely
without any thoughts. [...]
No contemplation. No reflection. No self-talk. Only refreshing the mind from the deep resting point where the
mind has no thought yields maximum benefit to the meditators. Can we really stop ourselves from thinking? Yes,
but only with regular practice and correct guidance from the teacher, we can achieve that state of the mind
where unparalleled joy is hardly described. If you are amazed by the nature of the mind and would like to know
more about it, learning to teach it is the best answer. And this is the training that will focus on two main
things; Mind and Habit.
