This review is from: Becoming You: Cultivating Spiritual Presence (Paperback)

I've personally known Joseph for less then a year. During that time I have been attending his classes once a week. I started having breakthroughs in my spiritual endevours after a couple of months. His practises, which always start with sensing one's body, taught me to remain aware and focused even during the time of stress. Tested during a parashute jump (one of my fears), it proved to be a very practical skill; it allowed me to be in control of my emotional turmoil and to finally experience something I've always dreamed about.
