Testimonial

I took part in the foundation course for Trauma sensitive Yoga online. For me, this experience was one of the best I had ever in a course for healing and trauma, as it combined in a perfect way the knowledge and the personal experience through exercises. I do believe Esther is one of the most empathetic, highly experienced teacher in trauma, one can have and I consider myself lucky to have found her and did her course. She created a safe place for us, and a community environment although we were from different places of the world and online, She managed to plant a seed of new perspective, a new way of thinking about how we approach people with trauma and ourselves, She broadened our capacity of understanding and our empathetic way of seeing things. She opened for us our interoceptions to listen, feel, and be in the moment. As a person working in the health care system and a humanitarian organization  I truly believe that more people from this field, nurses, doctors, social workers, employees in institutes, humanitarian organizations should do this course as they can understand and feel more about how the trauma work and help more their patients and themselves.Thank you Esther for the life-changing lessons you gave us
