Ruth and her Integrative Meditation class were nothing short of amazing for my partner, Mike and I. Both being time-poor, stressed and high-strung as directors of our company, we were looking for something to balance our tense and fiery personalities. With Ruth’s classes we found it a very useful tool to help pull us away from reacting to the noise of everyday life. Searching within ourselves to find our own inner peace. In my own experience, I suffered a few traumatic issues such as my dog being stolen and having a car crash during the weeks I attended to her meditation. However through the use of iRest, I was able to control my negative emotions and “respond” rather than react. (I got my dog back in 3 days and handled the car accident unbelievably calmly.) I am ever so thankful for attending this class and have managed to put what I’ve learned into practice and help others become aware of their own negative states similar to mine by simply spreading the word of what worked through the classes. Thank you to Ruth who was absolutely brilliant and I highly recommend you take this class, as there is more to gain than one could ever properly explain.

I have found the meditation practice taught by Ruth really helpful in managing anxiety and pain. I looked forward to the weekly group classes which provided a safe and comfortable environment to learn and practise meditation. Ruth’s approach is warm, welcoming and very practical. The course has finished and I continue to use the recordings every day.

I would like to highly recommend Ruth Oliver. I have been doing Pilates classes incorporating yoga movements now for many years. Ruth comes to my home and we do exercises that are specific for my needs and capabilities. Ruth brings with her a wealth of knowledge and expertise. I am extremely grateful to Ruth for keeping me flexible. I have scoliosis and disc degeneration and without Ruth’s care and an excellent program, I would be extremely stiff and quite immobile today.

I have had the pleasure of participating in Ruth’s classes for several years, and more recently Meditation. Her classes are always varied and challenging whilst catering for individual fitness levels and flexibility. As an active over 50 year old I enjoy the wellbeing and sense of achievement that I feel after participating in one of these classes. I recently became part of Ruth’s meditation group and feel immense benefit from the sessions and ongoing practise of the meditation techniques I have been taught .Ruth is always enthusiastic and displays tremendous commitment and belief in the philosophies behind the classes she teaches.

I enjoyed the course immensely as it was set in a very relaxed environment, but little did I know that within weeks of the course ending my strength of character and everything Ruth taught me would be put to the test.
 
I learnt that my health was in severe danger with a reoccurrence of a tumor that was aggressively invading my back, ribs and hip and getting very close to vital organs. I was booked in for a very gruelling 10 hour surgery and I woke up in ICU 24 hours later. Yes, I had a tough road ahead of me.  Immediately after waking I meditated. I meditated in that hospital day after day, night after night.  I used all of Ruth’s techniques multiple times a day.  When I felt anxious I meditated, when I was in pain I meditated and when I felt alone or in pain I meditated. I’m 3 months along now and I need to express my sincere gratitude to Ruth Oliver for (unknowingly) helping me through the toughest time of my life. Her lessons are life long and what I gained from her classes will stick with me forever.
 
Thanks so much Ruth!
