  • “As a competitive CrossFit athlete striving to reach the highest levels of the sport, I’ve seen a noticeable improvement in my physical performance, thanks in large part to my mental training. I’ve learned how to focus more effectively during workouts and competitions, how to manage pressure, and — most importantly — how to be present in the moment. This shift has not only elevated my performance but allowed me to experience more joy in the process.”

    Dan Coda - 2024 CrossFit Legends competitor

  • "I learned a tremendous amount about the benefits of incorporating a meditative practice into a daily routine, and more importantly, how it can aid in a much fuller, more nuanced perspective of the world. I have seen true benefits in my approach to acting as a result of Rafi’s advice to lead with compassion and thoughtfulness instead of individualism and have seen his teachings seep into other areas of my life as well."
