  • Victoria was an excellent teacher, able to create a safe environment for everyone to share their experiences, clear direction on how to carry out exercises and ideas from MBSR and later how to integrate these techniques into our every day life. I can already feel that her teachings have made a huge difference in my life. Thank you Victoria.
