Knowing there are people out there who have used these tools to combat depression and anxiety make me feel slightly less alone in a world where the mantra is continually pretending all is well.
I met Ramdas 5 years ago after a traumatic event left me reeling with severe PTSD. He has created a space of safety and compassion and community, where I have been able to further my healing beyond what I could do in therapy alone. His patience has been unparalleled while I struggled through reactivity, rejection, and retraining my brain to be centered again and free from the self judgements and downward spirals of PTSD. The friendships that have been forged through the years of practicing together has also been invaluable to my well being.
I wanted to thank you for sharing your talent with Yoga. It was my first experience with yoga and I was blindsided. My body finally connected with my spirit for the first time since my brother passed. You gave me a new skill that I had been looking for & immediately recognized as being true. Your study & talent blessed my life.
