Already after the first meditation something amazing happened. I track my sleep and I often lack REM sleep. I get some deep sleep, but the REM sleep doesn’t appear. Now everything was on its place. I was really amazed in the morning. I have been improving the sleeping all the time more and more. When I meditate during the days, a couple of times during the day, so the night’s sleep is continually very good. I get more hours and the REM sleep never disappeared again.
Hi, my name is Margit Westerlund, and I am an opera singer from Finland. I want to endorse Cynthia Makris and the meditation workshop we recently did together. I have been earlier meditating with guided meditations and this was a little bit different. During the workshop I got my very own mantra. So now I don’t need anything more than my mantra and a little bit of silence with me when I want to meditate. It’s really practical. I can do it wherever I want, whenever I want, how long or short I want. Already after the first meditation evening, something amazing happened. I track my sleep and I often lack REM sleep. I get some deep sleep, but the REM sleep doesn’t appear. Now everything was on its place. I was really amazed in the morning. I have been improving the sleeping all the time more and more. When I meditate during the days, a couple of times during the day, so the night’s sleep is continually very good. I get more hours and the REM sleep never disappeared again. I’m really satisfied. Also I have high blood pressure, so it’s really normal. Not even the medication has helped me, but the medication and the meditation together has done a miracle. It doesn’t stay so high as it was, and it happened at once. Night sleep and the blood pressure already after the first night of meditation. It’s amazing. I can’t believe it, but it’s true. Also, as an opera singer, I get sometimes lots of stress. So the short meditation hours or moments are very, very useful. If I feel myself getting nervous, so just sitting down, closing my eyes and having my tiny mantra with me. Some minutes, couple of minutes, and I’ll be calm again. So I highly, highly recommend this for everyone. If you have some health issues, it calms you down and gets you to your score. So I really recommend. And Cynthia is a really skillful and kind person to work with. So participate in the workshop. You won’t regret it.~ Margit
Access Bars is a completely unique form of therapy I think is really amazing!
I have struggled with nerve pain and unresponsiveness for years and decided to try Access Bars after a trial session. I usually practice yoga to help me heal my nerves, but because of excess pain, my mind could only grasp what had become very superficial and gross. I needed more help relaxing than meditation, breathing techniques or yoga could provide. The gentle touch of a therapist on specific pressure/access points allowed me to open up to the idea of tenderness and very gentle healing through access points that led right to my discomfort. I have tried many forms of energy healing and almost all have something to offer, but Access Bars is very different. Cynthia has allowed me to chatter, to be theatrical, to be very quiet, to be completely uninvolved and to mindfully meditate on how and where energy is flowing. Each time, I just thought, “I really needed that” and then it was over, and I moved on. I was much more accepting of myself, because I felt like I was moving forward. I really felt changed. As a result, I have been able to enter a more subtle state of mind and body in my everyday life, meaning that things don’t tend to upset me so much, life isn’t so hard, and I don’t feel so hard and pinched. That is an amazingly good feeling. If you need to heal from illness or injury and can understand the precepts of Access Bars, I highly recommend trying it. It has never disappointed me!~ Hanna
I attended my first Foundation class in early May 2023.
My facilitator/teacher was Cynthia Makris. Her commitment, her wisdom and her presence, during all these 3,5 days was unstoppable. She loves to laugh, she loves to give space for the other, her willingness to be there for you was very touching. Cynthia took my hand and we together walked through the different realities and different possibilities to create a way more conscious Life.I am so grateful for her Being, and her beautiful voice is still in my ears and her energy in my home.~ Kati
Have you ever experienced being in someone’s orbit who was so much fun and joy you couldn’t help letting down your guard and joining that level of exuberance?
I have had the great pleasure of taking classes with the lovely Cynthia Makris, Opera Star, Access Consciousness facilitator, a life time student of awareness and what more there is to perceive in our grand and glorious universe. My experience has been to be seen and appreciated as a student. Cynthia is not intimidated by her students abilities and their awareness, she invites it in. Very refreshing.
