As a teacher and mentor, Blake has helped me through some of my most difficult times. His spiritual knowledge, sensitivity, and kindness are the qualities I admire most about him.

Robert S., OH

I was at one of the lowest times in my life when I met Blake. As I got to know him and drew upon his more than 35 years of experience, I realized that I had found the ideal person to accompany me on my healing path.

Before meeting Blake, I had hit rock bottom. His enthusiasm, generosity, and ability to concentrate on what I had to say were invaluable. My gratitude to him is inexhaustible

Jordan M., CA

When Blake entered my life, I was at my lowest point. His energy, politeness, and willingness to truly listen were of immeasurable assistance to me. I cannot thank him adequately.

Wayne T., TX

When I began working with Blake, I had no idea how numb and afraid I was of basically every emotion. Throughout our work together Blake has taught me to feel, rather than fear my emotions. Today, I can cope with life's inevitable negative emotions and also experience joy, peace, self-compassion and love.

Our Support Group Technique.

In our groups, we initiate members into the art and practice of compassion, placing significant emphasis on fundamental principles like deep listening, self-reflection, and the application of reflective therapy techniques. The bedrock of YANA's philosophy is a steadfast dedication to compassion. We uphold the belief that every member should encounter a secure and nurturing environment where they can openly and authentically express their thoughts, emotions, and experiences.

At YANA, we wholeheartedly embrace deep listening as a core practice within our groups. This practice yields a multitude of benefits, including heightened mindfulness, reduced stress levels, enhanced concentration, and a profound connection with the present moment. Ultimately, deep listening fosters greater empathy and understanding in our interactions with others, contributing to our commitment to compassionate and meaningful connections.

The YANA Self-Reflection Technique.

The YANA Self-Reflection Technique is a method that prioritizes attaining a serene state of mind before engaging in introspection. It centers around uncovering the "What" and "Why" of self-reflection, gradually delving deeper into one's emotions and thoughts. By conscientiously observing one's thoughts and actions in everyday life, the YANA program utilizes self-reflection as a means for personal growth and transformation, always emphasizing the importance of self-compassion and fostering a compassionate learning approach. Ultimately, self-reflection is depicted as a sacred and harmonious solo dance, leading to heightened self-awareness and a more balanced life.

Identification with personal experiences, feelings, and thoughts serves as a cornerstone of our reflective practice. When sharing, we encourage you to draw from your own unique journey and perspective, allowing for a more profound and authentic exchange of insights and reflections within our community. The group's format is marked by its strong commitment to creating a structured and safe environment that fosters open self-expression, encourages reflective listening, delves into emotions and experiences, facilitates constructive feedback, and embraces the rich tapestry of diverse perspectives. The outcomes frequently extend well beyond the confines of the group sessions, leading to enduring personal and professional growth, thus endowing these gatherings with a cherished role as a valuable resource for gaining profound insights into one's behavior, emotions, and relationships.

Through identification, we can reflect on our own personal experience, feelings, and thoughts. So, when you share, please share from your own personal experience.

While attending the meeting, we ask that you dress appropriately. Do not be like the network news reporter who got caught on air wearing shorts under his suit top. Wear pants, even if you think nobody will see them.
