HICAT Student  Graduate wrote
I spontaneously enrolled in the HICAT course with curiosity about what was on offer. I already have a little background in learning art therapy, however, this course looked like it offered a more person-focused delivery. 
The training approach with a holistic foundation meant that I was also receiving my own access to personal growth and expansion throughout the weeks in practising the activities and assessments. I appreciate this component as it means not only have I grown along the learning journey, but I have also an awareness of what my future clients will also be experiencing on their journey. 
I am grateful that the class sizes were kept small as this allowed our members to really create a safe space to share and learn which in turn has built some beautiful connections and friendships. I found I was supported all the way through by my teacher Julie-Anne, as she helped me navigate my own self-awareness to my own abilities and what I have to offer as a Holistic Integrated Creative Arts Therapist. 
I would recommend this to anyone who is thinking of taking on a HICAT study path. All education and resources are quality and professional and they support you all the way and beyond.

They say you experience a few life-changing pivotal moments in your life. The ones you recount years later recognising it as a turning point. The ones you remember where you were when it happened. I know that finding HICAT is one of mine. 
My turning point came when I saw your Facebook ad. I was sitting at the kitchen table. Although I saw it too late to enrol, I immediately emailed you to see if there might be a later intake. Of course, you opened Buninyong which was even closer to me, and the rest is history. 
I was so excited yet completely terrified. Having not engaged in any further education since HSC in 1978 it was a huge leap into the unknown. I just knew I needed to do it, even if all my insecurities told me I wouldn’t be able to. That I wasn’t good enough, artistic enough, not relevant enough, and of course being in my 60s, I was too old. But when I stood at that turning point with a firm intention, I began recreating my life and my future. Having been squashed into a broken box of insecurity, loss of identity, illness, and stress, I got to decide who I wanted to become. Healing began at that moment. 
Your teachings showed me it was safe to create & and have a vision for the future whilst giving me the tools and understanding to begin being a service to the world. Rather than dwelling on the images of the past, you showed me how to define a vision for the future, and whenever challenges arose you were there to remind me that we are greater than our environments. 
Here I stand perfectly imperfect and armed with a full palette of modules and exercises to reach out to those in need of similar healing and hope. Julie-Anne you are a truly extraordinary human, and your genuine compassion, love and integrity are unsurpassed. I can honestly say I have never met anyone who is more authentic. Thank you for all you have done and been taught and held space for, encouraged and most of all loved. My gratitude is overflowing.
HICAT Student  Graduate wrote
Through the HICAT course, I’ve acquired considerable knowledge and understanding of trauma, stress, anxiety and many other issues affecting our society, and how this impacts not only our physical body, but also the mental, emotional, and spiritual toll that it takes. 
Using the tools acquired through holistic creative arts therapy, education, empowerment and living into their authentic self is possible for people. I have been impressed by how accessible the tools and skills are, with no prerequisites of any particular arts abilities, and also how effective they are. 
The balanced course structure consisting of theory, and practical activities in the classroom, along with homework, makes it very experiential and rewarding. 
Having modules addressing the application of knowledge to creating a business has also been immensely useful. 
Participating in this face-to-face course, learning from the other students, and receiving their support and friendship, alongside the nurturing care, mentoring and teaching ability of Amy, my confidence in my own abilities has increased and I feel competent to move into the community and undertake this wonderful, transformative work.
 I am filled with gratitude to Julie-Anne and The Soul-Full Mind College for the opportunity.

I just wanted to say thank you to The Soul-Full Mind College for an amazing journey full of laughter, friendship and grace. 
I learned so much throughout the HICAT course and now am excited to start a new chapter in my life. 
I have learnt to bring inner peace and creativity to those whom I will touch along the way.
HICAT Student  Graduate wrote
The HICAT Practitioner Training Course is a wonderfully enriching course that provided me with a safe environment and practical tools and knowledge backed by science to enable me to set out on my journey of inner healing and personal growth and to develop my creative expression, intuition and self-confidence. 
Among the many insights I experienced was the discovery that I AM CREATIVE, and in fact, we all are. 
We are more than our limiting beliefs, and by tapping into our creativity we can change our beliefs and be empowered to change our lives for the better. 
The practical activities, including intuitive and meditative drawing and painting, sand play, clay work, psychodrama, dance and movement, all taught in a safe and supportive environment, are gentle non-invasive therapeutic methods that allow us to explore our inner world, move stuck emotions and energy, and to transform ourselves and become the creator of our own lives. 
I am so grateful to Julie-Anne for creating this space, to our amazingly supportive teacher Amy, and to my beautiful classmates for co-creating our shared journey and connection.
HICAT Student  Graduate wrote
This course has been so life-changing in the best way, that I didn’t want it to end. 
It came into my life at the perfect time as I was looking for something creative one day a week, I’m so happy I enrolled.
Throughout I learnt tools and techniques to cope with stress and anxiety which I now use every day, this course has helped me to deal with past trauma in my life that I have been trying to process for a long time, and the personal growth I have gone through has been amazing. 
I feel it has opened me up to trusting people again & feeling safe to express myself creatively while letting go of making ‘perfect’ art and just enjoying the process. 
Our teacher Amy was so lovely, supportive and helpful throughout the course and has adapted her teaching to suit different learning styles.
Highly recommend it to anyone wanting to deepen their awareness & connect with a group of like-minded people The activities we did each week were so enjoyable and really brought us together, allowing us to feel safe to share with each other. 
I believe everyone could benefit from this course, it is so insightful, interesting and empowering. - Graduate Student 
Thank you so much Julie-Anne and Amy you have created such a beautiful learning environment I am so grateful to have met you both, I am going to miss class on Fridays
HICAT Student  Graduate wrote
At the age of 18, I had never felt so lost, alone and confused. About who am I as a person, what I want to do and what I even want out of life. 
Little did I know that finding this course could completely change my life and mindset in the most positive fulfilling way. 
This course has not only assisted me with various healing modalities but has also helped me discover my true authentic self. It has helped me grow personally by expanding my beliefs about life, assisted me with knowledge and education about various creative self-expressions, educated me on unconscious programming, taught me the beauty of gratitude, encouraged me to be the creator of my own life and taught me to always trust within. 
It has taught me that awareness is the first step of change and our past doesn’t define who we are as individuals because we are constantly growing and changing. This course has helped me reignite my passions and helped inspire me to discover what I want to do and who I want to be. 
Julie-Anne is such a beautiful heart-centred teacher, she is so passionate about what she teaches and it’s truly so inspiring. She holds such a safe, gentle, welcoming space for all to learn and grow. 
Julie-Anne I cannot thank you enough, HICAT has completely changed my life in the most amazing way possible and all it takes is trust within. 
I would definitely recommend this course to anyone. It’s such a beautiful self-development healing course. It was also so lovely to connect with like-minded people no matter the age difference.
Jan - HICAT Student Graduate wrote
It is strange how something catches your attention and you just know it is the right move to make. So it was when the advertisement for the HICAT training popped up on my socials. I had been looking for something and what this course offered seemed to pique my interest. With no real expectations, I have been constantly amazed, engaged, and have learnt so much in an incredibly nurturing, caring environment. Julie Anne is an engaging, knowledgeable inspiring teacher who knows how to get the best out of each of those in the class going on their own journey. 
I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to build a career in HICAT but also as an amazing personal development opportunity. You will both delight and surprise yourself at what you can achieve.

I recently had the incredible opportunity to enrol in a holistic integrated art therapy course, and I can confidently say that it has been a life-changing experience. This course has not only broadened my horizons but also enriched my understanding of the profound impact that art therapy can have on one's well-being. Here are a few reasons why I believe this course deserves a glowing review: 
Comprehensive Curriculum: The holistic integrated art therapy course offered a well-structured and comprehensive curriculum that covered various aspects of art therapy. From exploring different artistic mediums to understanding the psychological and emotional dynamics at play, the course left no stone unturned. 
Expert Instructor: Julie-Anne was not only highly qualified in the field of art therapy but also incredibly passionate about sharing her knowledge and expertise. Julie-Anne’s guidance and support was instrumental in my learning journey. 
Practical Application: What sets this course apart is its emphasis on practical application. We were encouraged to create art ourselves and then use it as a means of self-expression and healing. This hands-on approach allowed me to connect with the therapeutic power of art on a personal level. 
Holistic Approach: The course truly lived up to its name by incorporating holistic techniques and perspectives. It introduced me to mindfulness, meditation, and other holistic practices that complemented the art therapy process beautifully. I left the course not only with a deeper understanding of art therapy but also with valuable tools for my own well-being. 
Supportive Community: The course created a warm and inclusive learning environment. I connected with fellow participants who shared a similar passion for art therapy, and the sense of community that developed was both inspiring and comforting. 
Personal Growth: Beyond the professional knowledge gained, the holistic integrated art therapy course had a profound impact on my personal growth. It helped me tap into my own creativity, gain insight into my emotions, and develop a greater sense of self-awareness. 
Practical Skills: Throughout the course, we learned practical skills for working with clients and applying art therapy in various settings. These skills are not only valuable for those pursuing a career in art therapy but also for individuals looking to enhance their interpersonal and communication skills. 
Empowerment: This course empowered me to see art as a tool for healing and self-discovery. I now feel confident in my ability to use art therapy techniques not only for my own well-being but also to assist others in their healing journeys. 
In conclusion, the holistic integrated art therapy course exceeded my expectations in every way. It has left a lasting impact on my life, and I am grateful for the knowledge, skills, and personal growth it has provided me. I would wholeheartedly recommend this course to anyone interested in exploring the transformative potential of art therapy. It's an enriching and empowering experience that I believe everyone should have the opportunity to embrace.

"The HICAT course provided me with many hands-on activities. The modules balance practical activities, and theoretical information – doing all the exercises myself was a huge healing curve and helped me love and understand myself more. Especially the business models at the end help to feel empowered and create an “I can do that / I’ve got this attitude.” Throughout the course, I always felt seen, heard, validated and safe, and I have learned so much – constant reinsurance that I got this and the material that was taught and provided led me to grow my self-belief and self-confidence. I can say now I am more excited than nervous about getting started, as this course has given me the solid foundation to build and grow my business and bloom and grow professionally and personally. For the past several years, I have had this vision about my soul’s purpose of working on a spiritual/ mindfulness level with children and their families to support them on their journey on earth. Still, I wasn’t quite sure how, with the modalities, and HICAT has given me the last piece of the puzzle by teaching the tools and techniques that enable me to support these little and big souls – make them grow, bloom and shine. My heart and soul felt on fire. I’m so excited for the next chapter of my life and for building on the foundation, HICAT has given me. I’m looking forward to continuing studying and evolving with The Soul-Full Mind Collage in the future." THANK YOU.

"There are so many ways that this course has changed my life, from personal growth and insight to the capacity to offer professional support to others. When I first saw the course description it sparked a light in me, my heart and gut recognised the potential value of doing such a course, and after lots of research, I felt that Soul-Full Mind College was the perfect fit for me. Every step of the HICAT journey was an amazing experience and turned out to be far more powerful and beneficial than I could possibly have imagined. Every week I embraced the activities with passion and thrived in the supportive, connected community of my fellow classmates with Julie-Anne guiding the way. The personal transformations I experienced as we worked through the modules have been nothing short of miraculous, I completed the course feeling empowered, and capable and so very grateful that this course came into my life and that I took the leap to dive into it! At a professional level, everything we learned has given me the knowledge and tools to feel confident in offering my services to support my community. Having a solid structure to operate from ensures I am providing a respectful, safe and vital service to those who need it, whilst fulfilling my personal desire to create a heart-based career path filled with passion, joy and happiness. This course was everything I was looking for but didn’t know it. I am deeply grateful to my classmates for our shared journey and connection, and to Julie-Anne - words will never be enough. The way each class was facilitated, with support given above and beyond expectations, making sure each one of us shone our light and truly connected to the knowledge… this whole experience has created a strong, empowered and dedicated group of practitioners ready to get out there and share our light with the world!"

"Finding the HICAT course (or maybe it found me) has rekindled the light within me and it couldn’t have come at a better time as my inner light was beginning to fade. I honestly didn’t know where the course was going to take me, my main goal was for personal self-development, and my life felt like it was missing passion and purpose. Signing up took a lot of courage as I carried a lot of self-doubt about my abilities – but as I have learned through doing this course, that was due to my erroneous beliefs! HICAT has taught me so much, and learning to let go of old beliefs that no longer serve me and to choose to be the creator of my life has been just one of the many things that I have learned over the last six months and now I hope to empower others to do the same. It wasn’t always easy, and I was even ready to give it up at one point but living up to her amazing reputation Julie-Anne encouraged me to keep going, she said to me “You’ve got this”, words I will never forget. So thank you Julie-Anne for your guidance and support, to help me find my passion and purpose, I will be forever grateful and may my light keep shining on!" THANK YOU.

The course has really opened my eyes to meditation practice especially the importance of making it part of my daily health and well-being routine. I am more convinced of the power of meditation as a tool that I would like to share through my experiences and practice. Learning the different meditation styles, history and benefits have convinced me that I am on the right track to benefit not only myself but others.

I feel immensely grateful to have had the opportunity to partake in the HICAT program, which has been a truly transformative experience for me. Throughout this journey, I have been fortunate enough to receive unwavering support from a truly exceptional group of individuals, the foremost of whom is Julie-Anne. Her unwavering compassion and unflagging motivation have been the rock upon which I have built my newfound confidence and belief in myself. I cannot express enough how much I appreciate her and the others who have been instrumental in my growth and development. I look forward to exploring the many exciting possibilities that this newfound confidence will open up for me. 
My sincerest thanks go out to you, Julie-Anne.

I didn’t find the HICAT course, it found me....and I’ve finally unlocked my passion & my future career path at age 54! 
The journey of self-discovery & empowerment that I experienced through HICAT far exceeded my expectations. 
I have gained the knowledge & skills to deliver accredited, heart-centred workshops & programs to benefit anyone interested in exploring the innate need to create as a means for self-expression, discovery & connection inside us all.
Julie-Anne was a supportive & knowledgeable teacher who never failed to support me & provide guidance on my journey.

Being a student of the HICAT course commencing October 2022 has been an incredible experience, learning a diverse variety of modules relating to Mind-body education through the expression of art, music, sand play, clay, sound bowls, meditation, reading, watching videos, creative writing and hands-on practice, has connected me to my creative expression again and has taught me a lot about the way I express myself, helping me integrate the teachings into my own personal life. I found by doing the work and connecting inwardly, I was empowered by my own abilities, building trust and confidence within myself and my ability to learn new skills. The course covers so many aspects of life and encourages a beautiful unfolding of practice for health and well-being to take place. Going back to study was a very big thing for me, as I had a lot of negative blocks from the memories of my school days. I was quite unsure and nervous to decide whether I would manage ok with the study and learning new skills, but after my first chat with Julie-Anne, she reassured me instantly. Julie-Anne is extremely encouraging, guiding and supporting us all the way. I always felt extremely supported and very comfortable expressing my vulnerabilities throughout the course. This course is for anybody; male, and female, of all ages and anyone who wants to explore endless possibilities. I am far from an “artist”, but I learnt, it’s not about the art, it’s the journey and to accept whatever it was that wanted to be expressed and come through me, without any critical judgement. We are all unique in our own special ways and that’s what makes this course so beautiful. I’m so proud of myself for putting myself out there, saying yes and giving it my all. I look forward to what unfolds moving forward. Love and blessings.

As someone who has always been interested in holistic healing and creative expression, I was thrilled to find The Soul-Full Mind College HICAT course. From the very beginning, I felt supported and encouraged by Julie-Anne Salter, the instructor of the course. Her warm and nurturing presence made me feel at ease and allowed me to fully engage with the material. The course itself was an incredible journey of self-discovery and growth. Through HICAT, I was able to tap into my creativity and learn how to use art as a tool for healing and self-expression. I was amazed at how the simple act of creating art in its many forms could be so therapeutic and transformative. Completing the HICAT course at The Soul-Full Mind College was a transformative and uplifting experience for me. I gained new skills, such as guided meditation, holistic counselling, and a range of arts therapies, which have given me the confidence to create sessions and courses that will help individuals on their holistic health journey. With the support and guidance of Julie-Anne, I was able to push myself out of my comfort zone and truly challenge myself. It was incredibly freeing to realize that I was capable of so much more than I ever thought possible. Now that I have completed the course, I feel prepared to become a holistic creative arts therapist and begin my journey towards creating a business that provides holistic art classes to children. I am excited to use the knowledge and skills I have gained through HICAT to help children on their well-being journey, providing them with a creative outlet and teaching them valuable life skills. I can't express enough how much The Soul-Full Mind College HICAT course made me feel empowered! I was able to master new skills and was left feeling confident and capable of creating sessions, and courses that will undoubtedly help a range of individuals seeking holistic art therapy. Thank you for helping me find my Inner light, it was truly a life-changing experience!

"Whether you want to pursue a career as a Meditation Teacher/Holistic Counsellor, I highly recommend this course as I knew very little about how/what to expect. I must say I have learnt so much in such a short period of time. Julie-Anne made the learning easy to understand and was on call for any support you required. Also, the material that was provided was easy to follow and understand. I went in thinking I would mainly focus on the meditation side of the learning to implement into my current work position in Aged Care but have now decided in starting my own career and business as a Holistic Counsellor as well as dabbling in Meditation as well as Chair Yoga. I want to explore as much as I can so I can find my own niche within this growing industry."

All the tools I need to understand my life and direct my future healing, I now have (and know how to recognise if I ever need more). Not only have you shared with us the essential tools for successfully teaching Meditation, and given us the knowledge and tools to be relevant and present with fellow humans going on a development voyage ‘within’ of their own, but you have also given us all confidence to pursue the real parts of who we are in our unique ways.

You are a wonderful teacher who created an intimate and safe space the whole way through."

"This course has given me back my confidence to live a better life. It has given me tools to empower me to take back my life. The growth I made in the 12 weeks was aided by the great Julie-Anne who is a magical teacher, who lets you be your own authentic self and believes in you when you have forgotten how to. I know it was the knowledge and skills I gained through this course that has made me look forward to moving through the next journey of my life both in my work and home life. I now have the courage and skills to make a difference in other people's lives. If only more people knew the secrets that we can learn to empower and make for a healthy life. How important is it to make meditation part of daily living."

"HICAT has not only changed my life, but it has also changed so many clients' lives. As a clinical counsellor, there was always something missing in aiding children to express and regulate their emotions and trauma. I have had the amazing opportunity to work with children in a therapeutic way since completing the Diploma can HICAT course. I have witnessed children's behaviours become manageable, calmness restored and communication skills improve in families. I cannot recommend this course enough, it has changed the way I counsel."

“This course was just as I was hoping it would be and more. The content was so appealing, that I couldn’t wait for each week and a new module. I was thriving on new wisdom & lightbulb moments. It was insightful to relate & reflect on my own life experiences, it was all starting to make sense. Julie-Anne delivered it with care and compassion, you could tell it was everything she believed in and wanted to share with her students and beyond. She held a safe space where we could openly laugh & cry together without judgement. She’s a brilliant teacher & I feel blessed to be guided through this course with her. It gave me the tools personally to work out some places where I was stuck and move forward in life with more clarity. To be able to share my newfound knowledge as a career will be so rewarding. It’s such a powerful course personally & moving forward, professionally. My peers were the most precious bonus from undertaking this course, when you find souls that align and want to make a difference in the world, keep them. HICAT has been the best decision I’ve made in a very long time. Forever grateful to Julie-Anne & The Soul-Full Mind College"

"After 2019 was the year of a roller coaster ride for me and ended in a lack of self-confidence and anxiety I stumbled across The Soulful Mind Facebook post starting up meditation classes in January 2020. I had decided this is my year to look after myself and my own health and well-being. I went to the first couple of classes and found Julie -Anne’s classes were beginning to help me feel more relaxed. When she advertised the six-week basic meditation course I jumped at the opportunity. There were eight people in the class and I looked forward to each week and sharing our own experiences and soaking in like a sponge in Julie-Anne’s words of wisdom. With the ambience and true dedication and the wanting to help people, I could not recommend this amazing woman’s talents enough in reaching people, just being in her presence brings a sense of calmness. May the covid 19 situation be over sooner rather than later so Julie-Anne can reach her talent to the people wanting to enhance their lives through meditation."
Brenda - Graduate Student Wrote
"Julie-Anne I can not thank you enough for being such a caring human and not just a Counsellor. Like many people, we experience issues that linger in the background and every now and then rear their ugly heads and get in the way of true happiness......not knowing how to deal with emotions and anxiety we tend to hide or suppress the true cause. It was not until I found Julie-Anne on our community page that I instantly knew she was the one to help. Julie-Anne dug deep and asked the hard questions but because of her safe environment, the ugliness just poured out until all that is left is peace. I have now attended workshops and learnt so much about the human spirit and met amazing beautiful people. 
Thank You Julie-Anne from the bottom of my loving heart...still cannot wait for your cooking workshop."

Wow. What a journey, where to begin… I am extremely grateful and humbled to be writing this reflection. It is a bittersweet celebration of all that has been accomplished yet saddened that the course is over (In the most beautiful way). The experience of studying HICAT has been absolutely life-changing. Upon starting the course, everything was grey, along the way, I got lost in the dark very confused along my path not sure of my direction, now, I see the colour again! HICAT has allowed me to come back home to myself safely. Every week in each module, discovering new ways of expression & creativity that you’ve never done before, starts a ripple effect of healing. Piece by piece the puzzle gets put together and you can feel yourself coming back to life. There is resistance of course but you keep showing up. You do the work and before you know it, you have graduated, looking back with so much compassion & pride for how far you have come. The impact of this course is huge, not just for yourself, but all other areas of your life. Julie Anne is an incredible educator & facilitator. Each class is full of heart, sacred knowledge & intention, the space is held for the unknown and acceptance of the learning process in the most supportive way possible. The connections formed with Julie Anne & the other students are so special, you go through the journey together in your own unique ways. Through HICAT I re-discovered my light, and what it means to be a happy authentic *me* and I’m so excited to share this light with others. Art heals the heart, & my heart is so full. Grateful for all the wisdom, education, growth & transformative journey that HICAT has shown me. Beyond words, I loved moments (even the moments when I felt like giving up) I Recommend HICAT to anyone thinking about taking the leap, if you feel called to, DO IT! I felt the fear & did it too, reading reviews like this and procrastinating about if I should & I am so incredibly thankful that I did! You find everything you’ve been searching for within. Right from the heart. This course creates so much beauty & opportunity for growth, I started HICAT for personal development and now I’m so excited to take this work out into the world and share it with others, it truly is a life-changing wonderfully beautiful unique journey for everyone! So much love & gratitude. Thank you, Julie Anne & Classmates. HICAT- Bringing us back to our inner magic. In my heart forever!

"Completing the HICAT course with Julie-Anne from Soul - Full Mind College has been one of the best experiences I have ever had. From an initial interest in the topics & subject matter and in turn, learning the serviceability to the wider community, it was a fascinating journey that had a profound impact on me on a personal level. Creative expression through different modalities provided a unique sense of self and identity to be unveiled and released. With a focus purely on the process and not the outcome the journey truly took on a completely different result away from pressure and judgment. It takes time to learn to let go of one's own inner critic and it is an immersive and empowering experience that has opened the door to acceptance of myself as I am and offering the opportunity now to others. Through this experience, I feel confident to deliver quality, compassionate guidance to others to allow shifting what doesn't serve them and find space for growth, self-love, expanded intuition and inner wisdom. Something that stood out to me was the connection we all have within ourselves and to each other and that through exploring new ways of communicating and expressing ourselves we are able to channel different energies and emotional as well as physical outcomes thanks to mind/body connection. I feel I went through a full body and mind discovery program and have been given the tools to help others heal and achieve a happier, healthier quality of life by accessing the resources available within us and around us to naturally and harmoniously achieve a state of homeostasis and allow healing to occur. Thank you Julie-Anne for your guidance, encouragement and soulful learning experience. I couldn't recommend the course more highly."

"Grateful for all the wisdom, education, growth & transformative journey that HICAT has shown me. Beyond words, I loved every moment. I would Recommend HICAT to anyone thinking about taking the leap, if you feel called to, DO IT! I felt the fear & did it too, reading reviews like this and procrastinating about if I should & I am so incredibly thankful that I did! You find everything you’ve been searching for within. Right from the heart. This course creates so much beauty & opportunity for growth, I started HICAT for personal development and now I’m so excited to take this work out into the world and share it with others, it truly is a life-changing wonderfully beautiful unique journey for everyone! 
So much love & gratitude. 
Thank you, Julie Anne & Classmates. 
HICAT- Bringing us back to our inner magic. In my heart forever!"

"I enrolled in the course with an open mind and with the hope that I may gain skills that would work hand in hand with my life coaching business that I started earlier this year. I never could have imagined that I would get so much out of the course and make so many changes to my life and well-being by completing this course. I have learned so much and developed in so many ways. I have always been open-minded and loved to learn but I have never learned so much in such a short time span that has had such a positive impact on me. As a beginner in meditation, I am shocked at how many different types there are and the benefits it has to offer. I am so excited about what my new skills are going to add to my future both on a personal and professional level."
"It's not just a course, it will change your life!"
