My stay at Akiko's was profoundly insightful, transformative, and grounding. While I find it hard to put in words what I experienced, I can say that I feel deeply humbled and honored to have had the experience I did. In the 10 days I was there, I benefited from the morning meditation with Akiko, and yoga class with Maddie. The changes I felt started from within, and have exuded out to others I've seen since. I would recommend staying longer than 10 days. The monastery room had everything I needed, and was very comfortable. I enjoyed being surrounded by the jungle, and also having the protection inside this peaceful space. I learned to adapt and synchronize with the many insects, animals, and weather of this beloved land. The clearer vision and grounding was unexpected. You may learn and transform as much as you allow it. My most deepest gratitude and Aloha to The Wailea Ancestors and Akiko.
