"I was referred to Sarah following a very traum
atic incident in my life. I had always been a strong, independent person, a leader in my workplace. I tended to give my all to others and perhaps not care for myself enough. All of a sudden my life collapsed around me and I was a mess. I knew I needed help. My psychologist suggested that learning to calm my thoughts and my mind when it was in turmoil was an important strategy for healing. She suggested learning meditation and she suggested Sarah. I tentatively contacted Sarah, thinking that if she sounded too weird or too ' new agey' - I didn't have to go. Sarah suggested a course of six sessions during which time we would learn about and practice different types of meditation. From the first session, Sarah helped me feel safe and she gently got to know me as a person, not just as a client. She showed amazing understanding of what I had been through and her empathy with my problems was genuine as well as therapeutic. She taught me to be kinder to myself, to listen to myself and to love myself just a little more. She became part of a team of strong women professionals who guided me through that tough time. Not all the meditation techniques worked for me, but the ones that did have become part of my daily life. I actually did some follow up sessions with Sarah six months later when I was going through a shaky patch which were great. I know that I can do further sessions with Sarah whenever I need too. Sarah is professional and she has studied extensively to gain her qualifications. She is also friendly, gentle, warm, kind and caring. I am blessed to have met Sarah and to have her in my life." "I have had a number of guided meditation sessions with Sarah Bennett now and found her guidance and teaching to immeasurable. The experiences have engaged me in some of the deepest, and to be honest, most emotional states that I have experienced in a long time. The surroundings have always been cleansed and there is such a positive and relaxed feeling when you are in her teaching space. I have found that my physical and mental states are improving to a more positive and relaxed condition as I practice her teaching in my own environment. Sarah is patient, very willing to listen, kind, warm and generous with her vast knowledge on a variety of meditation methods. I would love to keep her to myself, but I would be doing the community an injustice by keeping this experience from them. With love and peace, Very Highly Recommended" RW
"I'm very happy to provide this testimonial. I'm a 36 year old bloke who loves a beer, V8's, the Cronulla Sharks and now, thanks to Sarah Bennett; sinking into a relaxing meditation. For about 12 months, I was struggling with getting to sleep and just generally being able to switch off and relax. After a trip to the Doc, I was given Sarah's details. My Doc knew I had no experience with meditation and had never really considered it as a response to, well, anything. But, I decided it couldn't hurt, so I gave her a call. From the first contact, Sarah was excellent at explaining how the practice of meditation worked and how I could use it for a natural remedy. From the first session, I was pretty hooked. Over a few weeks we tried a range of meditation styles, letting me work out which ones worked for me and which ones didn't connect as well. I learnt about the philosophy and the connection to overall wellness, but to just the right amount (enough to keep me interested, but not so much that it was more like a lecture!). Each time Sarah would guide me through a different meditation method, she would then send me off with some instructions for practising later. The sessions themselves are extremely relaxing, but having the ability to do it yourself is amazing. Sarah is personable, positive, smart, very easy to listen to and bubbly as a puppy. I now like to kick back (well, sit up actually) and let the world flow around me for a while - sometimes it's 5 minutes in the office at work, sometimes a half an hour or so at home. If you're thinking about giving meditation a go, I'd definitely contact Sarah." Jason
"Sarah visited our centre and taught meditation with a group of 40 children. Her calm and peaceful presence brought a beautiful tranquility into the centre. The tailor-made exercises allowed the kids (and staff) to stay focused and open. We can't thank her enough and would highly recommend her to anyone!"
