Hello Parmjit,
Thank you so much for your workshops on “Harnessing the power of mindfulness” for our Mohawk College employees. It was a terrific opportunity to thoughtfully and mindfully look at how we manage our lives. Your meditations were wonderfully relaxing and calming. I felt like I had been on a mini-vacation, and went back to work feeling refreshed and more focused. I like your practical and easy strategies for self-care, and find myself going back to them when I need to clear my mind.
