Refunds
Due to the online delivery of this course, all purchases are final. If you are unsure if this course is right for you, please email your questions to support@amandagilbertmeditation.com or visit us here and listen to available audio meditation clips.
Should I take the course with or without music?
Each series in Home has original meditation music uniquely composed for each daily audio. AGM meditation music is thoughtfully created to best support being in meditation versus having the music take the listener out of their meditation practice. When first starting a meditation practice, learning with music can be very helpful and relaxing. However, having music while meditating is a personal preference entirely, so we also offer the full course without music.
