“Not only is Leslie an amazing meditation teacher and wellness coach, but she also understands the mind-body connection...both intuitively and intellectually. I've been doing some reading recently on two topics of interest to me (neuroplasticity and epigenetics) and she pointed me to several excellent books that dive deeply into these areas, which helped me tie together some loose ends. Leslie is clearly very familiar with the latest science in neurobiology that underpins the benefits of mindfulness, meditation, and physical exercise.”

“Leslie’s cup is ALWAYS half-full. She is a gifted, integrated wellness instructor who truly knows how to teach people the skills they need to get back in touch with themselves (even this skeptic!). She knew exactly how to cater to my pragmatic style while simultaneously opening my mind to the benefits of meditation. And on top of all that, she is humble and one of the most genuine people I have ever met.”

“Leslie exudes deep spiritual understanding and education while leading sessions. She does such with confidence, warmth and a keen third eye in guiding her students.”

“I was a coaching client of Leslie within 2-3 weeks of having open heart surgery. Initially I was putting pressure on myself to be able to do more than was realistic, given my condition. Leslie helped me sort out more realistic goals regarding what I was actually capable of doing, and to feel confident that I was doing my best even if I felt like I wasn't doing much. I have also participated in Leslie's virtual meditations sessions, prior to becoming a coaching client. I certainly found those sessions beneficial as well. I highly recommend Leslie for coaching and/or meditation, yoga, etc.”

“We are all on a journey but some of us don't know it yet!! Leslie is self aware, an avid searcher and teacher. If you wake up one day and need some spiritual and practical guidance to move you forward, you will want to avail yourself of Leslie's talents! She is skilled and wise beyond her years!”

Leslie has traveled to Ohio to work with our football program and she has been sensational. Our players look forward to her sessions. She's able to break down movements to each person's level of ability. Our players feel more physically relaxed and mentally re-energized after sessions. I wholeheartedly recommend athletic teams to use Meditate Montclair as a part of their in and out of season strength and conditioning program. We are looking forward to our next sessions in 2021!

“Leslie has been a yoga instructor and wellness guide to me for years. She has a deep knowledge of the body and has a great ability to listen, understand, and offer options that meet my needs. She is always spot on when referring me to resources and practices, whether it’s a book, spa, supplement, or new technique. She takes anecdotal information about how my body feels and provides applicable direct advice for how to solve the issue. As a yin yoga teacher at Montclair State University, Leslie guided myself and other students into a world of deep muscle release and relaxation which helped me move through college with more ease and clarity. After graduating a couple of years later, I continued to use that technique to manage the pain of a rare, chronic illness and subsequent surgery.”

Leslie's simple yet enlightened advice grounds me by pointing out that I can control my life with my breath. Her wisdom-filled reminders to engage with presence and movement within my environment make me realize that I don't need to learn how to meditate. I'm already doing it. Every interaction with Leslie deepens my daily practices with intention to create the space and time I need :)

Leslie has taught me well with effective breathing exercises and yoga flows to cultivate a healing state within my being. I still practice these exercises to this day, which maintain and grow that healing state.

Leslie is the most caring and honest person you will find to work with on your health and wellness journey. She has supported me while first attending her meditation and yin yoga classes at a local studio, through private coaching sessions during a difficult time, and now at her current Sunday Reset events that provides mindful movement, awareness exercises, reiki and meditation and a space to restore. She is an inspiring healer who will motivate you in your wellbeing goals fearlessly.

“I’ve made more progress with Leslie than any other person, place or thing I’ve tried.”

I've made more progress with Leslie in 6 weeks than I have with my therapist in 6 years. Worth every penny!
