Karina has done a range of work with Groundswell to help us make the organisation a ‘healthier place to work’ this has all very well received and has made big impact on the organisation.

Karina took time to get to know Groundswell before delivering her work and tailored her approach specifically to us. She first ran a session with the whole staff team to help us look at the our ideas of being healthy and how looking after our own health enables us to better support others. This led some clear actions and changes in the work place around issues such as nutrition and eating, drinking water, time management and stress management.

Next Karina delivered a three session set of training on Mindfulness at Work. Again bespoke training was developed. This gave individuals involved specific tools to deal with stress at work (and outside of work) and has contributed to changing the organisational culture to a healthier way of working.

Additionally Karina provided one-to-one support to one member of staff, which had a very positive impact in dealing with stress.

I would strongly recommend Karina - she had a really beneficial influence on Groundswell to help us not only deliver work that improves the health of our clients, but also ensures that our staff and volunteers improve their health.

As Head of Internal Communications for an investment bank part of my role is to bring new initiatives and services to staff. I started an initiative called health week based on the concept of healthy body, healthy mind to raise awareness about general health and well being.

Following a recommendation, I invited Karina to Societe Generale to support our staff during Health Week. She led a few classes with employees teaching them about meditation.

This included some easy to learn techniques which they could use at work to achieve more balance during stressful moments.

These classes were very well received and the feedback from staff was excellent.

Following the success of these lunchtime classes, Karina was invited back to give one to one sessions to employees. Given that the word "healing" is rarely used in a bank setting I was pleasantly surprised at the level of repeated uptake and bookings for these sessions.

Karina treated people with all manner of aches, pains and stress. This ranged from relaxing stiff shoulders, alleviating people's injuries from marathon training and various other issues that employees wanted help with.

It was a very positive experience for us all. Karina is highly professional and clearly talented at what she does and I would definitely recommend her.

Karina is a wonderful healing practitioner and if you have the chance to have a session with her, I highly recommend it. The energy is palpable, relaxing and amazing!

She is also the best teacher I have ever come across in all my years of mindfulness meditation and healing.
