This Northern California Regional Virtual IAM® Integrated Amrita Meditation Technique course is sponsored by MA Center, San Ramon.
IAM® is a short and simple approach to meditation that anyone can learn. The technique consists of energizing exercises - yogic postures, followed by meditation. It integrates movement, breath, sound and visualization.
Developed by Amma, IAM is a powerful way to reconnect with our real center, and experience true joy and peace in life. This technique, when practiced with dedication, is designed to bring integration into our lives - of body, mind, intellect and heart.

Use the call box on your left just before the outer gate to communicate that you need the gate opened to drive through. Then follow the road past the temple. The road continues on the right next to the temple gate, then curves left up the hill to the Main House. The puja room is just inside the front door to the house.
