This meditation guide is actually helping me to learn to chill and stay calm. I've spent most of my 14 years locked down. Solitary confinement time is rough to do. These last couple of weeks I've been really chillin'. It's not hard to understand. It's amazing how much meditation can do for you.

Level is an exceptional program that will have a significant impact on my nephew in prison. From the beginning, I felt like an integral part of the process, thanks to their inclusive approach and good communication. The Level staff is committed to helping people like me succeed along with my nephew.

I've tried a million things to beat my depression and emptiness in this dead world. I never thought the simple act of learning could bring a brighter mood in such a hopeless environment. When I'm learning something, I feel worth something. Thank you Level, you rock.

Processing my emotions through art has given me a wonderful new way to express myself and communicate with those around me. Sometimes words alone don't convey the emotions of a situation. Stories and art have power! Thank you - your guides are helping me much more than I could ever express.
