KIND WORDS
“Thank you Sharon for making it possible for me to continue my Intentional Rest and Stillness practice with you at a distance. I have been so pleasantly surprised with how effective the virtual online experience has been.
Anyone who thinks that technology would get in the way of achieving deep relaxation clearly hasn’t worked with you. Your online sessions have enabled me to feel fully restored and enjoy the benefits that come with your guidance. I’m already signed up for more!”
