I have been a part of Mr. Rajesh Sharma‘s group sessions for many months now. here we are taught simple Breathing techniques to regulate our nervous system. Every Saturday morning I look forward to our group meet. This has encouraged me to take life as it comes, without burdens and judgements and also taught me to be kind to myself.
