Five Week, Non-Religious, Secular Zoom Friendly to Buddhists in Recovery
Igor's style and approach is definitely perfect for those of us in recovery who do not want a religious box to fit into. In my personal experience with him, a clarity beyond concepts is readily apparent! That means for people in recovery, I couldn't recommend anyone more highly. If you have trouble affording a course, he'll work it out. According to Igor, the main point is to have fun!
