First, I would like to start off with saying Noel has been such a healer in my life. Here is my story in a nutshell and how I found Noel and how she has impeccably changed my life. I came to Japan with some baggage from a toxic relationship I was in previously. I thought I could figure it out on my own. After realizing I couldn’t, and I was sick and tired of going back and forth with myself I thought going to a therapist would help. Therapy wasn’t what I expected it to be and didn’t give me the satisfaction I was looking for at that time. During that, I met Noel one day unexpectedly and since that day we have been meeting weekly doing mindfulness and yoga. I never thought I could change how my brain was processing things around me so quick and efficiently. Noel has taught me different ways of how to cope in such a comforting way. Not only with the toxic relationship but also with everyday life situations and work. She not only gave me the how, but she also broke it down to me in such a way I could understand. Noel has opened my mind in so many ways that it will stick with me the rest of my life. Mindfulness is something I never knew I needed but I’m so thankful for her being my teacher through it all. After practicing the techniques she gave me, I can honestly say I have a new outlook on how things affect me. I can process them in a positive manor and or less negative way, because were still human at the end of the day. One of my biggest accomplishments was being able to heal from past experiences and I owe it to Noel for being my antidote. She is not only my Yoga lady, but I consider her a close friend because of her ability to be non-judgmental, restorative, empathic, and a beautiful individual inside and out. Noel has also been teaching me yoga and how to strengthen my core. She is definitely a professional at what she does. When it comes to yoga, she pushes me to try to accomplish what I can but not to hard to where I would hurt myself. Noel is an amazing coach when it comes to building strength for your mind, body, and soul. I would rate her 10/10 and recommend her to anyone and everyone whether it be for yoga, mindfulness, and or trauma related mindfulness. She has an impacted my life for the best!
