“You have such an ability to make things manageable and you are very engaging.
Your passion for what you do shines so brightly and all in all, you care so much and are with us in our struggles. That’s besides having a common sense down to earth perspective, which brings the ‘airy fairy’ concepts down to the nuts and bolts of living the best life we can.
And you do all this with a strength that embraces all the frailty of being human, of being imperfect, vulnerable, at times and recognizing the confusion in our lives.
You bring Hashem into my life, and awareness of the most vital concepts: Our Father in Heaven is always watching over us, His people, and He only wants good for us.”
“No words can adequately express this but I must try: Thank you again & again for the impactful, transformative role you have played in my life, teaching me how to live emunah & bitochon emotionally, instead of just intellectually.” -Karen, Manchester, England
“I have enjoyed the classes immensely. More than anything I feel like you are raising an awareness to an existence of a Being that is so loving, safe and constant. These days I find myself worrying less about the future because I know (feel and understand) that Hashem isn’t leaving me ever. He will be with me then, so there is no reason to worry. The guided imagery’s are filled with short powerful messages, combined with your calm, loving voice and sweet relaxing music. I am so lucky to have been led to this course.” -Tehilla, Jerusalem, Israel
“I am reflecting back, and have no words to express my deepest appreciation for guiding me to actually LIVE life! When I first joined, my life was a great big mess, and I felt stuck in the rut, with no means to overcome life’s challenges. Now my outlook has changed, and that is what made the difference! For me, the most rewarding comment was from a friend who has also joined your program who called me for some positive thinking advice! I feel I am coming full circle! Thank you, Chaya Hinda.” -Fran, Dallas, TX
