 "I went to one of Suzanne’s wellness retreats and it was such an enjoyable day. Suzanne is so knowledgeable and easy to listen to. The day was really relaxing and the gorgeous afternoon tea and goody bag just topped it all off. Will definitely be looking out for more of Suzanne’s retreats in the future." - Maura, Wellbeing Retreat, The Savoy Hotel, Limerick, 18 May 2024, Google Review 

"After completing a mindfulness course with Suzanne, I would highly recommend for anyone looking to become mindful and learn some skills to help when they feel overwhelmed. Suzanne was very informative, teaching about the basics, sharing knowledge from other mindfulness leaders as well as some lovely poems and stories, and of course brilliant calming guided meditation. I got a lot from each session, and regardless of the day I'd had, this hour really helped to reset my mind and look at things from a different perspective. Highly recommended." - Derek, 6-Week Online, Introduction to Mindfulness Meditation Classes, March/April 2023 (Facebook Review).

"Suzanne has an amazing way of getting her teaching across. She has a lovely soothing voice and a very friendly and approachable nature.  I gained so much insight into how to meditate and the benefits of mindfulness and meditation. The setting in Barberstown Castle was just beautiful and ideal for a retreat.” - Lorraine, Wellbeing Retreat Barberstown Castle, Co. Kildare, 18 April 2024 (Feedback Form).
