"I joined Mayu because I was in a very painful place in my marriage. It helped calm me and relax me just to walk in there. I would get a headset and pick a meditation to listen to as I soaked my feet in a warm foot bath, wrapped myself in a cozy blanket and sipped herbal tea! It was my heaven away from all the noise. My ME TIME! It helped me start to develop my own meditation practice and to feel more comfortable getting started doing meditation."

"Mayu provides a much needed space that is dedicated to my spiritual practice in a hectic life. Over the time I've been practicing in Mayu, I've experienced a deeper connection to my body, more consistent awareness of my breath, and a profound sense of becoming who I am even as I heal very old wounds. It is definitely a precious and sacred space for me!"

They were very knowledgeable and helped guide me toward a cushion which I really love.

It's like an oasis of peace in the midst of a lot of busy madness, and I hope to visit again soon."
