Ziva Meditation

It's been 90 days since I took the course in person. My experience has been extraordinary in so many ways. I meditate every single day and have gained so much value. There have been many breakthroughs and look forward to many more. I come from a world of personal development and growth. Started 13 years ago and now work for Tony Robbins. I have studied from many of the great teachers and Emily is by far one of my top 5. Emily teaches 100% of the material and is easily approachable! She is extremely kind, thoughtful, wise, brilliant, and extremely funny. She has such a huge heart. The way she teaches makes learning the material effortlessly.

I have been meditating for many years. I am a podcast host and one of my guests told me about Ziva. I signed up for the course with very low expectations. Emily completely exceeded my expectations with her take on meditation. I love that she backs up things with scientific evidence. No wonder she is leading with such success. I find her absolutely brilliant!

I recently completed the Ziva LIVE Nov training in NYC. I found it worth my time and money. The program focuses on providing tools, ways of thinking about meditation to help you get started with your effort. Success stories and scientific explanations are provided in the training, and there is a group meditation each day with discussion after. The group training provided a way to meet others, hear about their efforts, challenges and progress. The Ziva staff and Emily create a welcoming environment for all. Everyone is encouraging, and there is ongoing support after the training is over. Since I live in NYC, I look forward to coming back for group meditations. If you are unsure I would suggest reading her book, and info on the site. It will help you in your decision.

I started at Ziva just a few months after I graduated from college and moved to NYC. I felt constantly stressed and lost in this huge city. I was trying to learn Hebrew and struggled to the point of tears almost every time I studied. Once I started at Ziva all of this changed. My stress levels dropped to the lowest they have ever been, I created a wonderful community for myself in this city, Hebrew became a breeze, and really, to be honest, this is just the tip of the iceberg. Since I began my practice (eight months ago) my entire life has improved. So much so that my mom & sister are also in the Ziva family! The space is cozy and welcoming and feels like a little bit of home each time I walk back into it (love to go back to listen to Emily speak and for group meditations!) Speaking of Emily- this chick knows whats up. Not only did she teach me how to meditate (which, believe me, I was not confident was going to work) but she has so many awesome things to say and I often find myself seeking her words of wisdom as they apply to several areas of my life, not just meditation! Check Ziva out. You will be so grateful that you did!

Meditation isn't at all what I thought it was going to be, and Emily is the perfect teacher to explain that, truly, anyone can do it. She is a positive force of nature and an absolute light to everyone who meets her. I don't want to say that either Emily or meditation has changed my life because that gives too much power to something other than myself. But as an invaluable tool that I have used both to change my life for the better and to not stress unduly during the "rough" times, meditation has been essential to my physical and mental health and my personal and professional success. Thank you, Emily and Ziva Meditation!
