I want to thank you so much for your beautiful keynote message this morning. Truly, your words, sharing your experiences, and giving us all opportunities to notice the present and the benefit of that was so needed. You really did a beautiful job!…It was my hope that we could bring the impact of mindfulness to Montalvo‘s audiences, and so we created our teaching conference around this theme...Again, thank you for making today so memorable and special for our teachers and my colleagues, too.

I recently engaged Amy to present a Mindfulness workshop for a conference of arts leaders in the Midwest. Amy created an environment that put everyone at ease while she imparted knowledge and strategies that could be immediately implemented for stress reduction, creative problem solving and work resilience. She was relatable and easy to work with and I recommend Mindfullness in the Heartland most highly!

Amy Schonhoff with Mindfulness in the Heartland is an amazing presenter! CommunityAmerica scheduled her to present as a part of our Virtual Lunch & Learn Series. The event was a huge success and everyone LOVED IT! Amy did an incredible job presenting and keeping the group engaged. She provided great tips and ideas to apply mindfulness into our lives along with an informative and engaging presentation. We truly appreciate the time, care, and passion Amy poured into creating this event. We also appreciated greatly the “5 Strategies for Managing Stress” that she created and shared with us as a follow up to all participants. We are immensely grateful for the opportunity to have Amy present to our people and help them learn to apply mindfulness strategies in their own lives. I would highly recommend Amy Schonhoff with Mindfulness in the Heartland and we look forward to partnering with her again in the future.

As the Health & Wellness Coach of TVH Americas, my goal is to empower and enlighten others on how to live healthier lifestyles. Recently, Amy Zoe Schonhoff presented on Mindful Eating. Amy’s calm voice and presentation provided participants with thought provoking insight and solutions for real life situations. She made a strong case for being mindful and intentional with foods you put in your body and addressed several factors that contribute to mindless eating. I look forward to having her present more classes on Mindfulness and recommend Mindfulness in the Heartland to others. In our incredibly fast paced world, people need to learn how being mindful can be the answer to many physical and emotional health issues. Two Enthusiastic Thumbs Up!
