I want to thank Mrs. Seemaa was taking the time out to meet with me and to introduce this very important program.” – S (Governor)

Church

“I have been part of the class, that Seemaa gave to us. I am really thankful that Seemaa was able to travel to our city and help us align our breathing and now we can breathe better. I recommend the class to anybody because during the class I can feel my breathing is getting better and also, I had twisted my knee two times but during the class the first layer of pain has gone. I really enjoyed the class and everyone must do this class to remove the toxins from our body. We think we know how to breath, but we really don’t know how to breath. This breathing is for anybody and everybody, it is not based on any culture, religion or race. I encourage everybody to look for a group of Art of living and learn this right way of happy and healthy life. We want Seemaa to come back and help us again” – Pastor Robert from Church of God (Exerts taken from a video)

“Thank you, now I am aware and grateful to receive the wisdom of your class! I have been asking the universe, God and myself for this experience for a few months now and here it is! And it was so easy. I have been asking to naturally be present and find my joy and happiness. Happiness is my birth right and now I have a practice to clear all I don’t need and stay present in Happiness.” – E (Pastor)
