Testimonials
“This was a course (20-hour Principles of Ayurveda) that I loved, and I learned so much! I would certainly enjoy taking other courses from Sonia. She is engaging because it is very meaningful to her and that carried over to all of us. She wanted us to learn, not just intellectually, but experientially and emotionally.”
“Sonia, you made me feel inspired. When hosting the various wellness events, you always presented the topic with such passion, and ease – it made me and the other participants feel inspired, as well. I sure want to incorporate these practices into our daily routines.”
“You taught me the value of work/life balance and that it is okay to put myself first. I have learned so many little tips and tricks from you that I don’t know where to start. You have shared your passion for yoga, and you introduced a calmness into my life. You taught me about mindfulness in many aspects of my life, namely mindful eating.”
