"Thank you for providing Mindfulness Training to our marketing group. I found the presentation to be interesting and helpful, especially since I consider myself to be a novice at mediation and mindfulness practice. The workshop was relaxing, enlightening, and helpful and I felt focused, rejuvenated, and encouraged. I experienced a range of feelings and emotions and found it beneficial to have education on these practices and see them in action. I was surprised at how focused the breathing exercises made me feel. I find myself able to focus better and give my 6 year old daughter my full attention more often. It's made a difference for both of us. " Jim Riley, Chase
"Lani hosted a Zoom A-Z Mindfulness call for my office in September 2020. Timing was perfect with the way of the world, kids going back to College and schools going to remote sessions, my office was feeling the pressure and stress. Lani’s personality is so bubbly and welcoming that she immediately had everyone engaged and feeling comfortable despite it being a Zoom call. We thought that doing this virtually would take away from the class, but Lani made it work so incredibly well. Her energy at the start of class is so engaging that she had everyone answering questions and becoming more self-aware of what each of us were feeling. Her voice is so calming and soothing when she gets into the strategies to help with relaxation and focus on our breathing. She showed us ways to release stress and the importance of taking time out of our day to focus on us and how we feel. Lani is amazing the way she engages people and communicates the strategies to be used is perfect. Practicing mindfulness with her relaxing and calming voice is wonderful! "-Caryn L., VP of Wealth Management at Associated Bank,

I really appreciate what Lani brings into everyone’s life. I highly recommend her incredible mindfulness sessions. Her genuine approach to partnering together for meditation, visualization and overall wellness leaves you feeling rejuvenated. You will feel an incredible sense of calmness after participating in her session. Guaranteed." -Sarah Shepard, Group VP at Business Wire, a Berkshire Hathaway Company

Her techniques had a profound effect on us and left us with a better understanding of how to handle situations in a positive manner, and how to let go any negative emotions.
