“I have attended several different meditation courses and Jonni’s Modern Meditations workshops are far above the others in their inspiration, positive spirit, and techniques. It changed my personal determination and commitment in life. I recommend the workshops for anyone who wants to better understand, develop, and celebrate their truth in their personal or business life.”

“Jonni takes you on an adventure that ignites your spirit, stretches your mind, and opens you to greater possibilities and choices in your life. It was truly an adventure for me in every way. A journey to see, to smell, to taste, to feel. A journey into feeling spaces I never knew existed. A journey of co-creation that made me play and see life in a whole new way. Thank you, Jonni.”

“Jonni instantly felt like an old friend, as if I had met her before. Her sensitivity and perceptivity in regard to others was unbelievable. The meditation exercises were a reflection of Jonni’s love of the spiritual way of living. She taught me to honour who I am and how to make time for important meditative connection in my daily life at home after the class. My senses are open to my world in a new way.”

“Every meditation in the class brought fresh insights, ideas, and inspirations for both professional and personal development. I'm still drawing from the wealth of stimulation that I received and I expect to continue to do so. Will I return for another Modern Meditation workshop in the future? Absolutely! I would recommend this experience to anyone.”

“When I got home after my first workshop with Jonni, so many people said to me: "How was your workshop? You look so alive, so happy, so fresh!" That’s exactly how I feel. I realize that there will be blocks at times, but I feel a freedom that I have NEVER felt before. Jonni, your gentle, kind manner, your sense of humour, and your way of making everyone feel so comfortable...you have a real gift to share with others. You give of yourself in a way that is incredibly beautiful. Thank you for touching my soul, and helping me see rainbows, birds, flowers, colors; for helping me soar and feel like singing and dancing.”

“Jonni’s meditations are the first on my list of favourite things. The beautiful atmosphere Jonni creates is nurtured by the people who attend the workshops. I leave, feeling reinforced and grounded, impervious to everyday stresses and demanding work schedules. I am strengthened from within and ready to create.”

“I listen to Jonni’s cds on an everyday basis. They benefit me greatly and I count on my meditation time for balance.”

“I believe Modern Meditation is an intelligently conceived program and Jonni is a talented teacher of complementary expertise who has a knack for being present when guidance is needed and giving us space when we are processing on our own.”

“Jonni ever so gently was able to get us into a discovery mode that submerged us deeply into the experience of our very own higher self. She is a magician!”

“What totally impressed me was just how much I feel I accomplished while at the same time coming away feeling refreshed. What I loved was the connection the meditations brought out in me. It was an incredible “timeless time”, as Jonni would say. After the workshop my mind was alive and my senses were sharpened."

“Crossing paths with Jonni, and with most of those attending the workshop, remains etched in my psyche as one of the most rejuvenating, nurturing, enlightening, growth-inducing, experiences of my life. Jonni’s style of allowing our spirit to blossom was heart-warming, and her skillful encouragement will remain appreciated for years to come.”

“The greatest gift I received from the workshop was to learn to meditate in a much more useful way. We took time to focus, experiment with different “menu items” and take risks. I have used so many of the ideas and exercises from this workshop with my own students. I would unreservedly recommend the class. To say that it was extremely effective is a vast understatement.”

“Jonni allowed the wheels to start turning for me. I've been talking for years about meditating but it was all talk and no action. Since attending the workshop I have kept up a daily meditation practice. For me, the benefits of Modern Meditations include increased confidence. I've learned valuable techniques to get me through my previous meditation stalls.”

“The workshop was the right environment for me to share my insights and experiences. In each meditation we were encouraged to open ourselves to new levels of imaginative possibilities. Something that was dormant within me came back to life as I rediscovered my own spirit. Barriers seemed to melt and my horizons began to expand. The whole experience started a new process that is opening new vistas for me. I'm looking at things with wider, excited eyes.”

"I have been meditating for a number of years and try to meditate everyday. Nothing matches the spiritual power of a small group of individuals sharing their energy together, and with their help I am able to achieve a meditational level that I could not achieve alone. Jonni’s Modern Meditation workshops help to energize me for the days and weeks ahead."

“Jonni’s workshop challenged my assumptions of the concepts of "time" and "memory" and gave me a new way of "seeing" and interacting with my mind’s images. An unforgettable experience!”

“The contents of many workshops are often misrepresented when marketers attempt to hook as many participants as possible; however, Jonni’s class was faithful to every word of its description. Her experience, people-skills, and dedication blended to create a wonderful flow. I felt inspired and energized.”

“Jonni, during your meditation workshops, the space which you create allows me to see and understand very meaningful messages and brings amazing physical sensations which are always enlightening and have proven to be very useful for my own personal journey.”

“I feel as though I now have a focus, a method, and a way of evolving myself, and that the means are just as important as the end. Thank you, Jonni, for opening my eyes and heart to these essential aspects of connecting.”

"Modern Meditations have become my key to living a truly balanced life. They put me in touch with where I am with my physical and spiritual being. Since starting to meditate with Jonni, I've increased my work productivity, and developed a more enriching life outside of work."

“In each meditation, lulled by the cadence of Jonni’s musical voice, we switched off the critic in our heads and set out to establish a real connection. Through a variety of exercises, we found voices, sights, feelings that had been drowned in the dissonance of corporate and mass media noise. We meditated “automatically” without fear or self-doubt, and shared in the visions with our new friends. Absolutely amazing things happened when we took flight. Jonni gave us the wings to do it, and we returned to earth, magically transformed.”

“The workshop awakened a longing in my heart that usually gets ignored in my ordinary busy life. I saw others of my group come alive, too. When a fellow participant said to me: "For the first time in a long time I feel joy," I knew it wasn't just me who had been transformed.”

“Under Jonni’s skillful navigation, the stress-laden attitude that I came in with seemed to melt away. It was replaced with the precious gift of childlike wonder for the world and all it holds. My mind and my heart opened up. There seems to be no end to my spirit’s voice.”

“The Modern Meditation workshop gave us time to breath, time to consider, time to be with others who also crave internal connection and stillness. I was amazed at how Jonni’s techniques led me to tap a wellspring of experiences, senses, and inspirations that lay, somewhere in a secret place, waiting to come out. The ease at which they came out, the patterns that were woven, and the colours of each piece convinced me once more that, indeed, I am of spirit! Jonni’s workshop showed me the way, gave me the keys, and urged me to continue the discipline that will invite my essence to manifest its work - to delight, surprise, and inspire me.”

“Modern Meditations are effortless, seamless outpouring from the heart. One of the biggest surprises for me is the effect it has on my work and life. They help me to see more and more and I realize that there was really no end to my expanded perspective. Some of the group had taken the classes many times before. Everyone jumped in wholeheartedly and we supported each other’s undertakings. The class was a wonderful celebration of our individual possibilities, coupled with tools for jump-starting our own meditations. Everything Jonni gently poured into our receptive hearts continues to resonate. I can’t wait to take the class again. It is food for life.”

“Jonni’s meditations allowed me - for the first time - to really hear my own voice and find a way of expressing it in a way that has been so freeing. I see them as a transition point in my life where a new and more powerful way of being will come into its own.”

“Modern Meditations are life-altering experiences, changing my world from within, in order to change my perception of the world around me. The lessons of the workshops gave me permission to stop rushing from one thing to another, always looking ahead to what was coming next while the moment at hand slipped away unnoticed. I now take time to capture those moments, to cherish and enjoy them. The meditations help me to reveal subtle yet powerful altered views of myself.”

“Jonni’s meditation classes provide me with an uplifting reminder of the importance of keeping an ongoing spiritual practice. I always get great insights into how I am creating my outer world!”

“I am fairly cynical about such classes having attended others previously, but my cynicism quickly evaporated because Jonni was welcoming, passionate, talented and committed to bringing out the best in people. The process and tools were challenging and at the same time empowering and illuminating. It proved invaluable to take a block of time from my busy schedule to focus on developing my life. The environment of other participants was supportive, each on individual journeys but leaving open the opportunities for paths to cross and to learn from and with each other.”

“Modern Meditations have proven to be more personally impacting and practical than I could have imagined. I think mostly because of the warmth and acceptance Jonni extends to each of us in the workshop. She created such a positive atmosphere, one that enhances connections of all kinds.”

“As a practicing visual artist, I came to the workshop desiring to develop my meditation skills. I was looking for practical, but creative exercises I could use outside of the idyllic conditions workshops offer. I was not disappointed. The visualizations, memories, and time expanding exercises were creative, practical and transferable to any situation. I left with many ideas for my own meditations and am happy to say have made time to do so everyday!”

“I find Jonni’s well-thought-out approach refreshing, as is her enthusiasm in sharing what she’s learned as a meditation coach. We dig deep within ourselves to reach our spirits and the meditation time speeds by. Attending the workshops reopens my mind and heart to all the limitless possibilities that exist in myself, both personally and professionally. The experience of rediscovering something new inside of myself in every meditation is unforgettable. The meditations continue to have an impact on the way I am living my life today and what I will choose to do as my life moves forward. It is a true pleasure to have the opportunity to “play” with Jonni.”

“A new self-awareness came to light for me during the meditation class. A realization that the personal issues of my life were not there by accident, but were in fact central to my growth as an individual. The tactility of experience shifts your perceptions. You get goose-bumps and infinite awareness comes forth riding on the back of personal issues. What was remote has become intimate, and your view of yourself and your perception of the past, present and future is amplified.”

“Jonni, a gifted guide, spoke in respectful and loving tones. Her creative gifts led us through various exercises that were at times playful, somber, humorous, affectionate, and magical. I found power in the "undoing" and a safe place to be, in an atmosphere of joyfulness.”

“Modern Meditations will charm you, challenge you, and refresh the very way you approach your work and daily living.”

“I was actually quite overwhelmed by the nurturing aspect of Jonni’s teaching. As a teacher myself, this is exactly the type of impact I wish to have on my students - the sort of gentle encouragement that empowers learners to experience a genuine sense of achievement.”
