I started on a yoga journey with Veronika over a year ago. At the end of each Friday 9:15, Yoga Stretch class, I always stagger out of the room so relaxed I need to sit in the car to recover my senses! Veronika has the amazing abilities to stimulate energy, action and joyfulness into her lessons, and yet leave me feeling so very laid back and relaxed at the end. It is a wonderful experience and one I look forward to each week.

When Veronika announced she was going to be running a class on Therapeutic Yin and Mindfulness, I decided to become a participant. Little did I know what an amazing journey was in store for me. I have found that YIN yoga stretches the physical body, while the chakra instruction feeds your mind and gives you opportunity to contemplate your inner body; something I have never done in my life before.

With Veronika’s guidance I am learning so much that is having a positive impact on my health. In this class I am learning about the 7 chakras or energy centres located along the spine, and what impact they have on a person’s well being. Due to a stressful job I have been challenged with digestive issues and constant pain on my right side for many years. Journeying through the first three chakras I have been able to identify some issues, apply some solutions, and my pain has gone.

I now understand that by controlling my perceptions I can have a positive impact on my emotions, which in turn positively impact my physical body. I am incorporating what I am learning into my daily life and I believe it is giving me the tools I need to help prevent this pain developing in future.

I cannot thank Veronika enough for the light she has brought to my life.

It was years ago now that I started studying with Veronika.  She welcomed me into her circle with open arms and a boisterous laugh.  I was going through a hard time in my life and struggling to understand the energy around me.  I am an extremely sensitive individual and am greatly affected by energies, sometimes I had trouble discerning if the energies I was feeling were even mine and/or knowing what I should do about them when they didn’t feel good.

Veronika invited me to take her “Enchanted Journey” course that she had developed to help people, like me, try to manage their energy.  The atmosphere was always warm and inviting, with a great deal of encouragement for people to be themselves and express their individuality.  I was able to learn that I’m not so strange after all, and to put words to many of the things I was experiencing.  Veronika’s teaching style was direct and she always gave room for experimentation/implementation as well as self-reflection.  She was very caring and supportive, and helped me see that my burdens were not mine alone.  She helped me realize that not all things needed to fall on my shoulders, and helped me learn how to process my energy when it was chaotic.  She offered a great many tools to her students to generate, build, process, organize and ground or disperse energy.  She would show us how, then encourage us to try ourselves, then ask us how it worked or not for us.  She allowed us to take what was relevant to /us/ individually and leave the rest for later.  She also gave us information on how our environment affects our energy, as well as our thoughts – extremely valuable material.

Today I am well on my way to being an energy healer myself, and have gained education and confidence in many healing arts.  I believe I owe my success in part to Veronika – because she saw me as I am and had such confidence in me; she knew I could be so much more than I was allowing myself and she encouraged me to follow my dreams.  Thank you Veronika for being a part of my growth and healing team; for all the ways you’ve helped me overcome so many hurtles in my life to allow me to be who I am, where I am, right now.  Thank you.
