I recently attended the Stress release retreat at Bodhi meditation. It was a truly transformative experience for me being the first time into meditation . The volunteers, including the trainer are very compassionate and dedicated and created a calm and welcoming atmosphere. I appreciate how the trainer Linda took the time to explain the benefits of each technique and encouraged us to incorporate them into our daily lives.
The environment at the center was soothing and peaceful, with a great aura which is hard to explain. I felt happier, energetic and relaxed after every session.
Overall, the class helped me feel more relaxed, and focused. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to begin meditation practice. I am looking forward to explore more meditation techniques at Bodhi.

I have been meditating on my own for awhile and found myself in a situation that I needed more guidance, and people that I could relate to.
For a couple of months I had been looking for some help and someone to talk to of what I was goin on with me I had been depressed and stressing out.
My Dr. suggested to go to the Bodhi Meditation Center in San Francisco but I got on line looking for a closer meditation center so I found Bodhi Meditation Silicon Valley center which was closer to where I live.
This place welcomes everyone no matter were you are from. Each time that I went there I learned something new so I started going to their nightly classes and I finally decided to attend the 7 days class. I attended the stress relief retreat for 7 days it was very good. Learning the Greater illumination meditation throughout the week the guided meditations helped me try to understand myself and to be more patient and accept the things with gratitude and compassion specially those things that I can’t control.
I had not noticed right away since I wasn’t feeling good during the week until a few days later that my sleeping habits had improved, and have been feeling less stress. So I’m very happy that I took the time to take the class. I will continue taking their classes since All of their classes are free.
At the Bodhi Meditation center I’ve experienced the warmth and compassion from everyone there.
I like to thank everyone there for the time that they have taken to teach and help me along on my path. Thank you all.

I recently had the pleasure of attending the Health & Happiness Retreat at the Bodhi Meditation Center, and it was an experience I will cherish forever. Located in Milpitas, this center offers a perfect space to learn various forms of meditation and the teachings of Master JinBodhi.
The meditation hall was spacious, ample cushions/chairs/blankets were provided, and the facilities were top-notch. The exceptional volunteers helped the participants with grace and patience. Their genuine care for each individual's journey was evident. The daily schedule was well-balanced, offering a mix of guided meditations and insightful talks.
The meditation method taught at the retreat focused on healing, happiness, and compassion. Overall, this retreat was transformative, providing valuable tools to incorporate into one's daily life. I highly recommend the various retreats and daily practices conducted at the JinBodhi Meditation Center to anyone seeking a peaceful haven to reconnect with themselves and find inner tranquility.

I had an amazing experience at the free 7 days stress relief meditation retreat offered here. I feel like a different person afterwards. The energy of the meditation center is truly remarkable. Friendly faces everywhere when you are in the center. And the atmosphere is peaceful and welcoming. I leave feeling better after every visit!
During the meditation retreat, I had some major emotional breakthroughs and saw myself shifting to a more positive mindset. The meditation utilized visualization and movements to guide me to feel infinite love and energy from the universe. I connected with deceased loved ones' energy while in the meditative state. It was extremely healing and made me come to terms with their passing in a way I could not have done on my own. Many happy tears were shed.
I have already seen positive changes in my life. Emotionally, I'm feeling happy and content. A genuine, and consistent feeling of happiness. I have been living in fear for the last 4 years. Most days were filled with anxiety. Connecting with friends and self care was a chore. Don't even get me started on work.. Now I feel at ease, relaxed, and loved. I feel more confidence, energetic, and positive. I truly did not expect to feel this way after just 7 days!
Opportunities are starting to show up in my life too. I'm connecting with people that have a higher energy, and clients are reaching out to me randomly via email. When you feel good, good things happen. Positive energy attracts positive things.
I feel grounded and more connected to my body than before. During day 4 of the retreat, I started to feel a tingling sensation in my arms and legs. And as time progressed, the sensation grew stronger. I have been practicing other forms of guided meditation in the past year and have occasionally felt the tingling sensation when I'm deeply relaxed in the meditative state. But this time, the sensation carried on even after the meditation, and continued throughout the day. I am amazed by how much mind and body connection I'm able to achieve in such a short time!
Aside from the stress relief retreat, they also offer many other retreats and free services. Energy healing, chanting classes, oracle reading... etc. The center is open everyday and have multiple group sessions throughout the week.
I can't thank Bodhi Meditation enough! I now have hope that the happiness I was missing is attainable. And I'm so grateful to have found this amazing community of awesome and kind people. :)

I participated stress relief, and health and happiness retreats that teaches the core Bodhi meditation: Greater Illumination and other meditations. The staffs and volunteers are like family members. They practice compassionate. I had wonderful experience. One can go there any time and practice Greater Illumination. I believe consistent practice of this meditation would improve yourself. They have daily group practices for the old participants and newcomers. All the retreats and most services are free. I recommend this center.

I had a wonderful experience at the Bodhi Meditation Center in Milpitas. The staff and members are incredibly helpful and caring, creating a warm and welcoming environment for everyone. They organize free meditation retreats that are open to all, making it accessible for anyone interested in exploring meditation. Additionally, they provide free and delicious vegetarian lunches to attendees, which is a thoughtful and generous touch.
There is much to learn from the Bodhi practitioners about creating a healthy and positive outlook on life. Their teachings and practices emphasize mindfulness, compassion, and inner peace, which have profoundly impacted my overall well-being. The community here truly embodies the spirit of compassion and mindfulness. Highly recommend!

Jin Bodhi Meditation has changed my life forever. It has improved my life in varies ways. I searched for a meditation center and this came up in Milpitas close to me. My first experience upon attending the Meditation center, I’ve been going here now for 6 months since January 2024. I LOVE it! The members here are so helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. They’ll help you if you’re a beginner to mediation. My first meditation practice coming here, was the Energy Bagua. It literally took my focus away from my (shin splints )pain on my right front ankle . My muscle was super strained due to heavy workouts lifting pounds . I’ve cried due to not knowing if I was ever going to heal ever again. I had to keep icing it. I thought the pain wasn’t going away. Having been 3 years to where I couldn’t walk normally and limping, I had to use crutches for a few weeks. I thought I couldn’t walk anymore or do what I loved which was kickboxing or any vigorous workouts at the gym. After attending a few Energy Bagua sessions , it was like a miracle. I definitely recommend anyone who is looking to improve their life quality, YOU WILL !!!!!! with Jin Bodhi meditation of Silican Valley. You just have to decide. I did. :) Thank you so much Jin Bodhi Grand Master and the members!!!!

Energy Bagua ClassI attended this 7 days class in June 2023. Some of my friends are already doing the Bagua exercise and I want to join them, so I enrolled in the class. I found the class very useful and structured. Lots of videos of Grandmaster teaching every detail of how the proper postures from head to toe, the breathing, wallking, one's emotion state etc.when doing the Bagua exercise. Then the instructor in the class would further elaborate the videos and lead us to practice. It is important to learn the proper technique, as one will get more energy if doing the exercise properly. I suggest all those interested in this exercise take this class.

Since joining the Calabazas park Energy Bagua practice group in March, I’m glad my sleep and blood circulation problems have improved
