The Impact of Mindful Coaching
"I signed up for the MBSR (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction) class in an effort to make a commitment to myself, my health, and my well being. I have tried meditation in the past and just was never able to commit to a regular practice, nor did I really feel any benefit to my sporadic meditation bouts. I was nervous about joining the MBSR group, but from the first meditation during the first class, I knew I had made the right choice. Nina, our teacher, compassionately guides you through the course and helps you to find what works best for you in your wellness journey. The connection with Nina and other group members was an invaluable part of the experience. The principles I have taken from this class have helped me to handle stress in a more balanced and healthy manner and have helped me to decrease unhealthy habits of rumination and self criticism in response to stress. I continue to maintain a consistent meditation practice to this day. I highly recommend this wonderful experience."

"Working with Nina far exceeded my expectations. I’ve learned so many tools and skills to help my body naturally reduce anxiety and cope with adrenaline surges. I am forever grateful for her help."

"The MBSR course provides a uniquely practical and effective approach to meditation, and insight into internal thought processes that can add to stress. Rather than offering ways to reduce stressors, MBSR takes life's stressors as a given and provides a practical way to reduce stress despite them. Cynthia and Nina were excellent guides, providing a great introduction to practice, clear guidance, and a listening ear."

"Through our coaching sessions, Nina helped me learn to process my emotions and stress better and change some of my habitual ways of thinking. She is very approachable and easy to talk to, and she explains both how to do things and why it works. These practices have made a big difference in my daily life!"

"Just wanted to say a whole hearted thank you for your guidance this semester. Originally, John and I took this class as a filler for credit, not really taking it seriously, but it ended up being one of the most transformative courses we have ever taken. From helping me deal with insecurities to outward frustration, I now have tools that I never knew existed to help me cope with all the stresses that come ahead. I am truly not just saying that, the personal ways this class has helped me in real life cannot be understated. I will be taking these mindful practices with me into the future, with you in mind. Thank you again for everything, from your soothing voice :) to actual real life applications. You have been open and honest throughout the course, in turn creating an environment where we could all be the same. Thank you for being a teacher who genuinely cares for her students. Take care and hope to hear from you in the future."

"I really appreciated your class this past semester. When I began the class, I felt crippled by my anxiety and was not receiving the proper help. I believe the skills I learned in your class quite literally changed the way I see the world. I make it a goal to be mindful everyday and still do many of the techniques I learned. I really appreciated the way you approached mindfulness, and I will never forget what I learned in your class."
