I've been really surprised about the density and richness, yet simple and pragmatic approach of the SIYL training which I had the pleasure of doing in an online format over the course of 6 days. I really liked the combination of micro-practices, personal stories, breakout sessions, and scientific cases. John's calm and joyful style of facilitating has felt really great and perfect for such a training program.

Dominik and John brought the program to life. The impact upon us on a personal and professional level was profound. We were unsure how to manage taking four hours over four days for all our senior members of staff but at the end of it all the perspective was reversed, that is, how could we not take more time and care for ourselves and each other. The program will have a lasting impact upon my life and I sense for that of our organization as well. My deep gratitude to John and Dominik.

I am very grateful for the two weeks we shared led by Yatan and John. I Have been practicing some of the exercises for years and never been quite able to give them a proper frame like this training does. It was wonderful to notice how everyone was so committed, honest and empathic. Every interaction I had was meaningful in one way or another. Regarding the teachers John and Yatan: they were both as present as someone can be, giving their absolutely best without expecting anything in return.
