Testimonials
India entered my life just by chance when she was volunteering at the Cancer Care Centre.
It was the most frightening and uncertain time in my life.
Since that day, through her genuine loving kindness, compassion and understanding she became a vital pillar in my healing. Her reliable presence, when others fade away, never leaves you feeling alone.
She makes you believe in angels. I think she is one.
The course was a wonderful experience. Apart from finally being able to meditate (after trying
for years on & off and failing), the whole experience was more enjoyable, relaxing & positive
than I expected.
India is a natural! She is warm, calm and so beautiful in her approach, enabling you to relax,
learn & develop in your practice. She gives off such a compassionate, gentle vibe that you can’t help being positively affected by it!
The room is welcoming, comfy and relaxing- you’re greeted by herbal tea, notes & a calm, safe environment . It was a pleasure to attend each week and I’ll miss our little group. I would encourage anyone who wants more peace in their life to try this course.
I have tried to learn meditation at various times throughout my life. A class here and there, but never found time to sustain it as a practice.
Life got in the way. Other demands on my time.
I have come to a stage in my life, where I don’t filter the stresses in life as well as my younger years. I decided mediation was a good tool for my future years, and what challenges might lie ahead.
India’s classes were over and above my expectations.
From the moment I met her, the care she took to arrange the room for our comfort, the hot herbal tea on arrival, the notes carefully written and provided in our own folder.
Her teachings, the practice education, her personal interest in our Journey, and her sincere desire to enrich our lives with this ancient tool – gives me every reason to recommend India and her classes to everyone.
This is what she is meant to do.
Thank you India
Meeting India has been a really lovely experience – her warm, calm and caring nature has inspired me to commit myself to becoming less anxious, more focused and mindful and to dedicate part of every day to entering that ‘domain of deep natural peace’ which she has shown me.
Thank you India for teaching me to ‘be’ with myself and providing me with new skills to help me behave in a more mindful manner. Your course has not only taught me how to meditate, but I have also become a more appreciative and aware person. I am far more conscious of everyone’s desire for the same thing – happiness. This awareness makes it far easier to give both myself and others a break, because at the end of the day we are all seeking happiness in one form or another, and we are all going about it in the best way we know how to.
Having just completed a Learn to Meditate course as part of a small group with India I found the course to be personal and meaningful. The atmosphere and energy was very calming, supportive and positive – which I think is a reflection of India’s warm and engaging teaching style – I really appreciated your support, gentle guidance and positivity during the course creating a lovely group dynamic which allowed things to unfold at the right pace- thank you!
Participating in the Faith, Hope & Healing Meditation course, with India, has given me an opportunity to take a step back and reflect on my life journey. It has helped me to become calmer, more open and identify key goals – while accepting current changes. I have been able to mindfully establish priorities and think more clearly about what is truly important in my life – with my work, my family and the community. Thank you, India – and my daughter, Lainie, for making the connection – and adding value to my life.
The Learn to Meditate course has been an amazing, life changing experience for me and India has been the most wonderful teacher. The environment India created was warm and welcoming and her calm, gentle and encouraging nature has helped me to make meditation a part of my daily routine. Thank you for your positive energy, support and advice! I can’t wait to attend your meditation classes and would certainly recommend this course to everyone.
India you have helped me so much and I will be forever grateful for the lessons I have learned about myself because of you. I now have an amazing sense of my self worth.
I completed the “Learn to Mediate” course with India a little over 5 years ago and I found it uncomplicated and easy to follow.
Since then, I mediate weekly with a wonderful group of women. Our guided mediation sessions are truly inspiring, which has helped me through my life’s journey and nurture my own daily practice. A life long skill that I’m forever grateful to have learnt with such a beautiful teacher.
I completed India’s ‘Learn to Meditate’ course about three years ago and have been attending her weekly meditation sessions since that time. I highly recommend them! I look forward to the sessions every week and feel that they have had a very positive impact on my wellbeing and mental clarity. My favourite part is that each session involves a different theme, which enables you to experience a variety of meditations and ensures they are always new and interesting. The environment is warm and welcoming and the oracle cards are a lovely touch too!
I also use India’s counselling services and find her guidance very helpful. India is empathetic, caring and understanding and provides a safe and comfortable space for you to discuss issues with her without judgement. Her guidance has helped me greatly in overcoming problems such as anxiety and stress. India is authentic, warm and very easy to talk to. I highly recommend seeing her!
The day I met India Wallace
India was hosting a tour of The Sahmri on North Tce the day I met her. I had been diagnosed with Ovarian cancer and had commenced chemotherapy. I was wearing a wig that day. A friend in my tour group whispered- ” India is a cancer counsellor and she teaches meditation. And she has had breast cancer.” I had always thought I would not be a good candidate for meditation but I was open to seeing if I could “still my mind” . I booked a counselling session with India and gained many insights into the path I was walking. India listened with great care and encouragement. I appreciated her openness about her cancer surgery and treatment. I felt supported and knew I was now alongside numerous others who had walked this path. I then attended a four week meditation course and learnt that meditation is far more than “stilling your mind”. And I continue to gain insights and meet others on this path in India’s weekly meditation classes and monthly support group. Thank you, India, for who you are, what you share, how much you care for others, and your openness.
India Wallace is an excellent teacher. I do her Tuesday night meditation classes and am surprising myself with the retrospective thoughts that bubble to the surface for me post meditation, and love the deep sleep I have on Tuesday nights. Insightful and rejuvenating.
With increasing complexities in society and challenges in education, we were seeking a way to support teacher wellbeing. To our delight, India agreed to host a four-week meditation course for 15 staff members at our school. India’s gentle and warm nature, alongside her compassion and expertise ensured the course was tailored to the needs of staff. India created a calm and soothing atmosphere where all felt comfortable. Mindfulness was an important component of India’s course and many teachers have since gone on to access Mindfulness in Education courses and introduced this into classrooms. This has resulted in students being present, calm and grounded. India’s genuine personality, humour and high level of skill were always evident. I have no hesitation in recommending India to any school looking to support staff and student wellbeing. She is a gem with a rare ability to connect with all.
