What Our Clients Say About Us
"it was an
amazing experience"
“What a blissful experience! I’m so happy that I signed up for my first class yesterday. I attended the "Safe in Sound" sound bath with Brianna S., and it was an amazing experience and the setting was perfect. The space was set up with everything you needed to relax: yoga mats, bolsters for support, blankets and an eye pillow all circled around the bowls and instruments. Brianna set the tone with a lovely guided meditation leading into the beautifully dynamic sound healing journey with crystal bowls, chimes, drums, voice, and more. I truly didn’t want it to end. I emerged deeply relaxed and looking forward to the next class with her.”
~ Christy T.
"I highly recommend her services."
“I had my first session with Windy and I absolutely loved it. I have been recovering from anxiety, PTSD, depression, and other things going on in my personal life. Our first session gave me so much peace that radiated to my core and I had not felt that in months. I was comfortable in her adoring atmosphere. The room was soothing, therapeutic, and my energy was at home. I highly recommend her services.”
~ Taylor K.
"thank you so much for everything"
“I want to thank you so much for yesterday. It is a memory that I will never forget. I feel happy, at peace, thinking more clearly and the sky looks clearer. I told my 24 year old daughter about you and she is wanting to attend a class and definitely participate in the walk next Saturday. Again, thank you so much for everything. I feel so much better today. ❤️”
~ Dr. Tiffany T.
