What people are saying

"You simply won’t find anyone better than Cecilia. She brought a wealth of knowledge, compassion and empathy to her work and used it to create a tailored mental wellness program that uplifted our employees, fostered resilience and empowered team members to tackle the challenges in their personal and professional lives. Whenever an HR peer is seeking a mental wellness resource, I’m quick to recommend the Mindful Learning Lab as a partner they should explore as soon as humanly possible. Thank you, Cecilia!"

Christopher Washington, Director of Associate Engagement & Programs
"Cecilia provides a clear and differentiated pathway into meditation and MBSR for our staff. She is consistently reflective and intentional. Her approach allows for all staff to engage in a way that is tailored to their needs. Many of our staff reported positive increases in awareness around intention and their ability to be present. Inviting our staff to engage with Cecilia was the perfect addition to our ever-evolving and dynamic approach to wellbeing in the workplace."

Liz McClellan, Staff Wellness Coordinator
"For the first time in my life I was able to persist in a meditation practice for four weeks and I learned ways of meditating that made it easier for me to "access" my practice. I learned, to my great surprise, that the thoughts that entered my head during meditation were not "wrong" but just an expected part of the process. Most of all I learned, which I had previously only suspected, that meditating is a really important practice in my struggle with stress and depression and feeling lost. Cecilia's teaching, which was patient, kind, and knowledgeable, made me feel welcome and “enough.”

Monna Maning, Wellness Professional
"I feel fortunate that Cecilia was the instructor for our college’s Mindfulness for Healing & Resilience class series, and even more fortunate that she facilitated our college’s 3-day mindfulness retreat. I appreciate how easily she connects with college students, staff, and faculty, whether they are beginners or advanced mindfulness practitioners. I'm especially grateful for Cecilia's recommendations on mindfulness readings, which have deepened my practice. I highly recommend Cecilia and look forward to taking more classes with her."

Nestor Matthews, Psychology Professor

If I’ve learned anything, it’s that nearly all of us have two things in common:

1- Our life can be full of stress and challenges.
2- We’d like to roll with these challenges with a little more ease, while tapping into more presence and joy along the way.

These challenges and desires are part of what makes us human!

Mindfulness has been a transformative part of my life, helping me navigate life’s curveballs and wake up to the everyday miracles around me. While mindfulness hasn’t magically taken away the challenges I’ve encountered while leading teams, parenting young children, or navigating loss, I’ve found that it provides added clarity and compassion that each of these requires.

My mindfulness journey has included formal training in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Urban Zen Integrative Therapy, yoga, and several other contemplative practices, in addition to participation in multiple silent retreats. This training is integral to my teaching; however, it’s my life experiences as a leader and parent that have put it all to the test — and where I’ve learned the most!

I love nothing more than empowering others to discover the transformative tools of mindfulness and would be incredibly honored to support you. If you’re interested in connecting, please fill out the form below or email me directly. You can also learn more about me here.
