    As an engineer, I need to be both analytical and creative. Mental clarity and stamina are alsoessential. The APEX Course has given me the tools to enhance these abilities. An additionalplus is a better sense of health and well-being.

    William Hayden, Senior Systems Analyst-NASA

    "I'm grateful to have actual physical techniques that really eliminate stress, as opposed to vaguetheoretical concepts. I also enjoyed how the APEX Course helped bring our staff closertogether to work stronger as a team. It has helped people deal with conflict on a moreproductive basis.

    Yezdi Batliwala, Director, Tata Finance Securities Ltd.

    The criminal defense and death penalty litigation work we do in our office is very high pressureand filled with stress. The AOL Course has by far been the most useful, enjoyable, and bestreceived. Our attorneys found the breathing techniques and processes in the Course to beextremely relaxing, and beneficial to their state of mind and their ability to work effectively.
