Don't just take our word for it...
I really enjoyed the course and appreciated your insight and compassion. I felt quite sad yesterday knowing that it was our last class. Monday evenings will not be the same anymore!

I enjoyed this course so much, such a valuable and wonderful experience and so lovely to meet everyone (on Zoom!). Thank you Stephanie for all your care and support
Rachel Golden
I loved the course, you taught it beautifully and with such positivity and enthusiasm. I was not sure how I would feel about it, having recently come out of the IMCPP, as my impression was that MBSR is more for beginners, but I enjoyed it so much, and it was lovely to be in a smaller group. I think we were lucky and had such a lovely and also diverse mix of people. I will certainly miss it this Thursday!

About the teacher. I became a fan of Stephanie, I could be her student for the next 100 courses. Her energy, her words, the way that she handle and drive the classes is just brilliant.
I learned and I felt so much in this course and most of that was because she was able to create such safe, light, and warm welcome online environment that I am trying to figure out how she does it that. So, really thank you Stephanie for the lasts 8 weeks, it was a course that definitely had positive impacts and changes in different areas of my life.
