The Art of Living Foundation: USA Reviews 

Had a wonderful experience! Looking forward to incorporating this practice into my daily life to become a better person, wife & mom.

Learning the SKY breathing technique was one of the best things I did for myself. I have anxiety disorder for many years already, and the problem was escalating despite of taking my anti anxiety medication. I couldn't even do a regular meditation that it would trigger anxiety crisis for the next whole day. I was so sad that I couldn't do my meditations anymore, I wasn't sleeping well, and then I learned about the Art of Living. In the first day of training, my first experience, I felt a joy, a happiness without any reason during that meditation. Ok, that was already a great experience! And since then I've been practicing almost every day, my anxiety is absolutely much less intense, I have more happy moments in my life and I'm able to deal with obstacles in a more grounded way. People noticed that I changed in a positive way. I'm very grateful for the existence of this modality of meditation, I have no words for that, thank you!

It was an authentic experience and deep.
I feel renewed with life and joy.I am glad I had the repeater option available and used it.It is after repeating the program I realize how good I feel.My money and time were well invested. Filled with wonder and enthusiasm I am embracing life itself.

I cannot say enough good things about our teachers Naveen Sharma and Poonam Verma. Their love of and reverence for SKY and Sahaj is deep. They are so thorough, making sure that we all understood the practice and that we were off to begin our SKY journey in the best way. They continue to be available to insure our continued learning and understanding. Amazing

My experience with art of living can be told as a journey of healing and immunity. It is a positive and a miraculous transformation from being a total mess in all areas of life to an organized and hopeful person. All aspects of life has improved noticeably. Be it relationships, Work life balance, mental health, finance management, decision making, physical health, peace at home everything has fallen in place because after i started experiencing this magic my family members got inspired to take up Happiness program and learn SKYoga. Like it has benefitted millions of people across the world even our family is blessed to be a part of this. I was very confused between Isha and Art of living courses and researched a lot but finally i was blessed & destined to be a part of Art of Living. Going to Art of living was the best life changing decision of my life. This is the most genuine Humanitarian foundation you can ever find on this planet and i can assure on this. Every volunteer teacher and an employee of this foundation is service oriented and dedicated to bring a positive change in the world. There are 58 profound and deeply impactful courses both for children and Adults and they are so miraculous and powerful. These courses are the biggest blessing to mankind, its the biggest university for wellness and wellbeing which can keep you away from stress overthinking self doubt suicidal tendencies and meaningless life. This place will definitely help you lead fulfilled and meaningful life. Lastly i somewhere read Art of living promotes their courses too much my answer to it is “if you love something deeply you cant help but endorse it”.

This is what I was looking for all my life a peaceful and serene mind!!!

The instructors , course content and love , caring and kindness I feel from all of you. This is a dark time in my life and I am aiming for the
Light!

I took the beginner course again this weekend, I think for the 5th time since 2015. It is such a beautiful course to set you on and remind you of the path to peaceful joyful living. Instructors were so sincere and authentic. A great experience.

Awareness! Good I know!

The Art of Living Sky Breath meditation class was worth the time and the cost. I wanted help in starting my meditation practice as a beginner because it has been intimidating for me. The instructors, Rekha and Tejas made it so comfortable that I could be myself and let them know any parts of the practice that I was struggling with. The repetition was good because I feel ready to do it on my own.

This organization offers so many practical courses for handling the stresses of life. I'm so glad I discovered these simple tools for managing difficulties. It's healthy, simple, and works better than therapy or medication.

My teachers - Divya, Shashin and Aashish were great. Welcomed me with open arms without any judgment. Walked me through every step. Explanations were clear. Amazing support!

This was a wonderful learning experience due to the nurturing and knowledgeable facilitators, the interactive learning experiences, and mostly, the breathing techniques themselves. In practicing the techniques and breath work we would receive timely feedback from instructors thus ensuring our practice was on target. Our group experience became like a friendship group due to the activities planned by our wonderful leaders! I cannot say enough positive things about them! We now make the Sky Breathing part of our daily routine using our app and have daily access to group members and facilitators! How fabulous is that? It’s been a transformative experience and I rate it ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a delicious surprise! I expected to be taught breath techniques, I guess clinically. I was not expecting the opportunity to be in community with such loving folks! The instructors were particularly warm and welcoming. Shubhada, Vivek and Sunita ~ you three are magic! Your authenticity and ability to radiate love via zoom is palpable. The techniques taught are practical and necessary for my self care. I will incorporate them into my morning routine, so exciting! I'm forever grateful to you and this program.❤️

My teachers were competent and caring. They took time to make us feel safe. I felt that I was part of a group that cared. The actual breathing practice was effective. I'm confident about practicing the breathing techniques that I learned at home and I'm keen about joining more guided sessions.

Felt good with in 3 days would like to continue ..and the team was good supporting.

I was desperately looking for something to relieve my anxiety and my inner void. I was going through a hard time and needed some techinque that I could use every day to feel better. I had tryed yoga classes and i felt good, but SKY breathing is another level of deepness and transformation. I have been able to come out of marihuana consumption and I am very happy with my daily practice. I have found a way to fill that inner void with my own presence. I am very happy to find Art of Living.

Just completed the 3 day Sky Breath course. Became interested based on Emma Seppala articles/YouTube and various clinical studies performed at reputable institutions such as Univ of Pennsylvania. I was skeptical of the universally positive reviews on Trust Pilot and that actually caused me to delay going forward. However, my experience did exceed my expectations. Teacher was outstanding; compassionate, caring and very clear in explaining the method. We had only 2 students online, essentially 1 on 1 personalized training. The method left me with a sense of peace and relaxation that I never feel otherwise. The teacher offers continual support afterward and total availability to followup support. It is basically a physical approach to stress release requiring no acceptance of a particular ideology. The procedure is multi step and involves breathing at certain cadences and speed. The individual breathing exercises are well established in Indian culture and are not revolutionary. This is sometimes cited as a reason to criticize the cost ($295). The course combines different types of breathing into a comprehensive practice.
Note that this review is for the Sky Breath intro course only. This is not an endorsement for the other events/teachings of the organization or the organization in general of which I have no knowledge. I suggest one look for other perspectives on these if desired.

I highly recommend Art of Living 3 day SKY Meditation course. I am so refreshed and feeling so calm, content, and living more in the moment. Will definitely keep up this practice!
