Testimonials for this guide:

I was severely abused / tortured by my step-father, so I grew up with anger and depression. Meditation has helped me overcome those negative feelings. I have been meditating for 10 years now, and Level's guide has increased my practices by showing me new ways to meditate. Great job Level!

- Christopher, in prison in Colorado

What I have learned from this meditation guide really helps me with my stress and anxiety. I feel a lot better and think a lot clearer. After 14 days of meditation practice, I have little to no stress or anxiety, I'm more patient with others and things I don't like, and I am much more carefree and happier.

- Brian, in prison in New York

I have been down for 10 years. It's stressful sharing a cell. Your meditation guide touches on so many more subjects than my class did and it was all explained in a very easy manner with humor and stories. I have less stress, anxiety and have found more peace. I am more patient and happy. I can express myself better.
