I suffered from PTSD, anxiety, depression, insomnia, social phobia, kidney and digestive issues, and felt weak all over. I couldn’t think clearly, do any tasks, not even simple things like cleaning my room or responding to messages or emails. Life was unbearable. My body was full of pain, especially in my hips and knees, and climbing stairs required me to hold onto the railing, moving step by step in agony.
.
I tried doctors and many treatments, but nothing worked. I was under so much mental pressure. Then, in August, I was lucky enough to join Bodhi Meditation’s Chanting Class, and till today’s completion of the Stress Relief Class, my transformation has been incredible in just one month!
.
My depression and anxiety eased significantly, and I felt lighter and happier every day, filled with energy and joy!
I could think clearly again and had the energy to do things I couldn’t before.
My knee pain lessened, and I could kneel for half an hour to chant without changing positions.
During one of the blessings in class, tears flowed uncontrollably, and I felt as if my whole body was cleansed. I started to accept and let go of all the pain and hardships I had experienced in life.
Last week, I had my kidneys tested, and the results were amazing—completely healthy. My doctor was shocked and said, “Xenia, I don’t know what you’ve done, but everything is normal now!”
.
My mom had serious sleep issues for 25 years, waking up at 2 or 3 AM and unable to fall back asleep. Since I was a child, I remember always seeing her awake at night. But after joining me in the Chanting Class, on the very first night, she slept soundly through the night—and has been sleeping well every night since!

I’m so happy and so grateful to the honourable Grandmaster JinBodhi!
