I have long been intrigued by the idea of mindfulness. The value of 'being in the moment' becomes quite clear when one realizes 'now' is all there is. Yesterday has come and gone and tomorrow has yet to come. It takes practice, awareness and know-how to integrate the practice of mindfulness into everyday life. This is where Vy's experience and expertise comes in. Through Vy's mindfulness sessions, I was able to learn practical methods that helped immensely in integrating mindfulness into my life. As with any discipline, it takes practice and patience and I'm still learning, however the benefits are well worth the investment in time; reduced stress, better sleep, appreciation and joy in experiencing of even the simplest of moments. The practice of mindfulness has also been valuable to me in handling 'uncomfortable' emotions and feelings. Rather than suppressing these feelings, mindfulness has helped me to recognize and acknowledge them and so has facilitated their release and alleviated the physical symptoms I had experienced because of them (sleeplessness and stomach problems). Mindfulness is something I will very much continue to practice and incorporate into my daily life. The benefits are well worth the effort; a happier more fulfilling and enjoyable life. Every journey begins with a first step, and to me Vy is an excellent facilitator and teacher to help you begin your entry into mindfulness. Take the time to invest in yourself. It is well worth it! - Chris Maddox, Project Manager, 1:1 coaching client
