Thank you so much for coming to our class! I loved hearing how to organically incorporate mindfulness with kiddos and how child-friendly techniques can be accommodated for adults. This is going to be so helpful as a clinician and also (hopefully) as a parent (one day)! Your energy is fantastic.

Thank you so much Amanda for coming to the mindfulness workshop! I really enjoyed the words of affirmation exercise. Not only is it important for kids to practice this I think adults need it as well. I will definitely use this in my internship and personal life ☺

Thanks so so much! I cant speak for everyone but I truly believe we all were so happy to have you come in today to share a bit about your experiences with youth and mindfulness! I will certainly cater some of your exercises in my work with high school students. Working in a Philadelphia public school almost all of the students have adverse childhood experiences, so I particularly appreciated that!

Amanda, it was so great to have you in class! I loved hearing your perspective on how mindfulness helps trauma as well as your tips on allowing people to breath how they are able. Thank you for leading us in activities that got us practicing!

Thank you so much for joining our class and giving us insight on working and integrating mindfulness with the youth! The activities were super helpful, fun, and engaging even for us older folks! I loved hearing how you have incorporated mindfulness in raising your children and inspired me to do the same!

Thank you so much for joining our mindfulness workshop! I cannot wait to incorporate the mindfulness exercises we learned with my clients in session. I am already planning on teaching my 9 year old client how to name thoughts and feelings, and be able to identify how emotions physically feel in the body!

Thank you so much for coming to class and teaching about mindfulness. I loved the activities and learned so much about how to implement them. I really enjoyed the analogy of making a new path through the forest. I also like your explanation that mindfulness is awareness.

Amanda, Your energy, enthusiasm, and insight are amazing. I really appreciated you focusing on the intersection of mindfulness with various populations and drawing on research/experience with trauma-informed mindfulness. I am so intrigued by story-based mindfulness and cannot wait to buy a copy of your book for my 3 year old nephew. Thank you so much for your tremendous work and willingness to share it with us.

Thank you for the insightful presentation. I really enjoyed the demonstration, especially the hand exercise. I have a client that struggles with mindfulness and I will try and add it to his coping skills box.

Thanks so much for joining our class on a Saturday! It felt really good to get up and move around a bit, and also to say some affirmations! I'm currently in quarantine so I feel emotionally blocked up lately, but this really helped!

Thank you for your time and lessons, Amanda! When we departed for lunch I felt empowered with the tactics you mentioned, but also happier and lighter having gone through the activities with you.

Hi Amanda, I was present for Dr. Schmidt's Mindfulness class on February 6th. Your segment was un and great to be apart of. your genuine enthusiasm and interest in Mindfulness is obvious and refreshing. Thank you for your time and efforts.
Mike Kearney

I think my biggest takeaway from this entire workshop is how unique and individualized mindfulness is to each person and you really highlighted that idea. Thank you so much for sharing! I am excited to incorporate mindfulness, even if it just small amounts, into my own life and those around me.

Thank you, Amanda, for coming to inspire our class through both "uncomfortable" and enriching activities! I hope to implement what I have learned to my everyday life going forward! Stay safe. Thanks

My daughter had a medical and mental health crisis about a year and a half ago. Of all of the treatments she has received in this time, including psychotherapy, group therapy, physical therapy, acupuncture, a multitude of specialists and medications, my daughter feels that it was Amanda’s gentle teaching and guidance that pulled her out of a really dark place. I can only give thanks every day for the miracles Amanda has created with her teaching, but above all her loving kindness.

I am extremely thankful that we've been able to continue to practice virtually. It was an adjustment but one that I have fully embraced. I feel mindful and connected, and I don't bother anyone when I laugh out loud something funny you said. I know that breathing together is integral to yoga and I think you have successfully achieved and continued that connection. You have enabled us to create a community! Thank you!

In just a short amount of time, you truly had an enormous impact on these graduate students and they are trying to integrate some of your practices with their students AND themselves. Thank you for all that you do!
Chris -Department of Education & Counseling Villanova University Mindfulness in Schools Presentation

I have reflected on your positive comments, made during yoga exercises, several times already this week. Thank you so much for that. As women, but all people, need to hear affirmations. I am grateful for my time in your class.
