| Client A, 2008 "I have been receiving EMDR treatment from Swati for a few months. EMDR seems to awaken the positive part of me and help me to get rid of the unnecessary self-criticism. I feel more harmony in life". M & N, 2008 “Without Swati, there is a good chance that we would’nt be still together. She helped us to create a solid foundation to grow from.” Maria, 2008 “Group and Guided Meditation Practice facilitates compliance and provides personal enrichment and insight, Swati is an excellent guide” Larry, 2008 “Excellent mix of your ideas, anecdotes, interaction with others in the group, and the practice of meditation” Steph, 2008 “The Power of Meditation is a very “User-Friendly” seminar that teaches one a very approachable way to practice” N.D., Lawyer, 2007 “Swati is deeply dedicated to her students.

Thank you so much, Swati” Jackie, Business Owner and Yoga Teacher, 2007 “I really enjoyed the meditation class and the group interaction. It was very helpful exchanging thoughts with everyone. I was inspired by Swati and her gentle, soothing voice. I will continue to use what I’ve learned from Swati in my meditation practice” J. Montgomery, Film Editor, 2007 I came to Swati dealing with life-threatening depression and anxiety. After a few short months of intensive treatment that blended eastern philosophy and meditation with a minimal amount of western medicine, she turned my life around. I now feel better than I ever have before. Jenni, 2006 I trusted Swati immediately. She got to the root of my anxiety quickly and not only helped me understand it, but through EMDR, has helped me get rid of it. I have the tools to handle stress in a way that I never had before. Thank you Swati! |
| Amber Banks, teacher, 2008 I feel as though this workshop has opened up a new world for me that will help me for the rest of my life. This workshop is amazing for people who wish to strengthen their minds and bodies. Liston Witherwill, student and city employee, 2008 The Power of meditation class has helped me to be more mindful of my actions. With Swati's guidance, I have been able to better control my moods and be a happer person. I whole heartedly recommend this class to all willing to try it. Thank you! L. Brooks Model/Author, 2008 I have enjoyed working with Swati very much. She creates a sacred, safe space for me to release anything that should come up during our sessions. EMDR, especially in conjunction with cognitive therapy, has helped to take the power away from negative thoughts and past experiences, that seemed to have had a hold on me before. Her meditation classes helped guide me to feel more grounded, centered and calm. I learned helpful techniques that I can call on at anytime to bring peace in the body, mind and spirit. |
