 "I started this mindfulness journey without expecting much in terms of changes in my life. After just the first session I began to realize that mindfulness is something we need to survive in this day in age. It is not a religious practice nor does it require much time to be spent. Mindfulness helps our body and mind realize what we need to focus on and zone out our unnecessary distractions. Mindfulness has helped me in all facets of my life professionally and personally. I am very grateful for what Choon-Ai has taught me. As an educator myself, mindfulness is important to develop growth mindset... that is how we keep learning!"  

" Reiki experience was like exchanging energy, feeling actually that I am energy. I felt energy moving through my body, coming out of my fingertips, although Choon-Ai didn’t touch me. Additionally, I noticed that Choon-Ai and I were like one mixed energy. The night after the session, I slept very well, exactly like a baby. I woke up the next morning feeling very rested, happy, energized and ready for the day. This is amazing. . I highly recommend Choon-Ai. I will be back."                          

" I discovered mindfulness after reading the book “Sane New World” from Ruby Wax. At that moment of my life I was going through a very challenging period and decided to give mindfulness a try. When meeting Choon-Ai, I was already familiar with the mindfulness practice, but she helped me to open and widen my understanding, while strengthening the connection between mindfulness practice and my everyday life. Through her gentle care and encouragement Choon Ai helps you to help yourself. She has found the perfect balance between gently supporting individuals whilst holding the group energy through personal tweaks of the approach. Taking this 8 week course with her is something I have not regretted since."                 

" Before Mindfulness I had already some practice in the breathing and the meditation, but I must confess it never stayed in my life the way I wanted. Probably because it was a separated space in my daily routine. With mindfulness I found flexibility, and my own way to meditate and calm down through breathing, getting in there almost naturally, in different moments of my day. The 8 weeks of training are so helpful to get there, step by step...I really recommend this journey....since for me has been to get into the core of the stress process, calm down, accept life such it is, enjoy.....  "      

 "Through the 8 weeks MBSR program, my main learning is to accept myself as I am and that small achievements are often better than the big ones. Choon-Ai has shared with us that mindfulness is not a miracle pill, but with mindfulness practice, our general well being will & can get better over time. Together with patience and acceptance, and with time, this practice has helped me. Choon-Ai was the great teacher who with a very warm smile and heart taught me to open the door to a beautiful inside world, that all of us have in our soul. We need only to find the key to open it and to enjoy this beauty.  I certainly do recommend this 8 Week MBSR course.  I want to thank her for the little seeds she planted in my soul, and I will take care of them" 

 "Ce cours m’a emmené à la découverte de la compréhension et de la relation entre la santé du corps et de l’esprit. Il m’a donné des outils pour comprendre mes réactions face aux émotions positives ou négatives. J’ai d’avantage confiance dans le présent et prends plus de plaisir dans les petites choses du quotidien. Ce cours m’aide à prendre du recul sans jugement face à mes pensées et comportements automatiques et ainsi mieux évaluer les situations. Je conseille vivement cette méthode à toutes personnes désireuses de mieux se connaître et de prendre un peu de temps pour elle. Elle vous offre de grands moments de réflexion. Je suis très reconnaissante à Choon Ai de m’avoir initié à cette technique et recommande sa qualité d’enseignement."
