Testimonials

Job Search & Career Club

Before these sessions, I was feeling really lonely and scrambled in the job hunt. I feel like I can get in my head about my progress and feel discouraged … So I’m incredibly grateful for these sessions and especially to you. Having a space to honestly share the challenges I’m facing and hear the same has helped to alleviate those feelings. You’ve created a really healing space to work through our challenges without judgment …

It’s a warm reminder to me that this journey is wonderful no matter how hard it is. Thank you so much, and very looking forward to more sessions!

Gratitude Breakfast Club

This was an amazing experience and exactly what I need to jump start incorporating mindfulness and meditation in my life … I enjoyed hearing the experiences and viewpoints of others. I also enjoyed how happy and optimistic I felt after these calls. Thank you, Karen! This was a very therapeutic experience for me.

Qigong Playshop

We had a wonderful experience working with Karen for our relaxation/vibe session. Her Qigong session brought a calm, grounded energy to the Annual Meeting and offered attendees a much-needed moment to reset during a full and content-heavy agenda. She created a welcoming space that felt accessible, restorative, and well-aligned with the tone we hoped to bring into the day.

One attendee shared that the session moved them to tears it was so meaningful and energizing. Karen’s session created the space to pause, breathe, and release some of the emotion that naturally comes with taking in so much connection, learning, and reflection.

Gratitude Breakfast Club

The Gratitude Breakfast Club is an inspired idea that I love since I know that starting the day with gratitude helps set us up for success and joy. Karen expertly pulls from many traditions and teachings to introduce participants to a wide variety of tools and techniques to help cultivate or deepen a gratitude practice and also feel more gratitude and appreciation in daily life. Participants walk away with so much after just thirty minutes. If you are looking to shift things in your life, I would highly recommend joining the Gratitude Breakfast Club.

Qigong

I’ve taken several Qigong classes with Karen as a complete beginner, and I cannot recommend her enough. Karen has an expert ability to teach and guide through not only the movements, but the science behind them. Her passion for the practice and genuine warmth for the people with whom she is sharing it are unmistakable. I look forward to continuing my Qigong journey under her guidance.

Practicing gratitude is a wonderful thing we can do for our mental, emotional and physical well-being. That we can practice this together, here, multiplies its power …

Gratitude Breakfast Club

May was so easy! I was in a good mood all month. What was the difference? I think it was the mere 15 minutes of gratitude in the mornings! I hope auntie does it again. I will be in attendance.

Gratitude Breakfast Club

Signing up for anything with the word “gratitude” in its title was the last thing I expected to be doing.  But a friend of mine was very enthusiastic about it, so sign up I did, and I am so glad I did!  Over a month of well-curated topics, Karen guided her intimate group of attendees through a number of thought-provoking and life-enhancing practices.  The judgment-free zone she created allowed people to be as open as they chose to be to share their experiences with the exercises.  And while I am NOT a morning person, I eagerly anticipated my morning sessions!  While it was a “Breakfast Club” and included exercises to be done during that time, she also included take home practices to work on throughout the day, bolstering the topics we had just discussed.  The tools we discussed I have put into practice in my personal and professional life.  I have recommended it to several people and would eagerly sign up again if it is offered at a time that works with my schedule!
