People say

Victoria University

“Rachel presented a mindfulness workshop for around 100 staff at planning day earlier this year. The task was difficult one – present an idea that was foreign to most of the attendees (many of whom would rather have been elsewhere), in less than an hour. Rachel’s articulate, and easy-going presentation style meant that even the most sceptical members of the audience were open to new concepts and practices. Really happy to have Rachel involved in our planning day and would recommend her to any organisation looking to introduce the benefits of mindfulness to their workforce.”
- Edward O’Connor, Business Services Manager, Victoria University Library, Wellington

She has a thorough understanding based on her own in-depth experience and background which is reflected in how she communicates this. Rachel speaks on mindfulness in a highly accessible, original, authentic and articulate way, calling upon traditional approaches combined with her own learnings and creativity.  I highly recommend Rachel as a mindfulness educator and speaker."

She has worked very well with my Executive Management Team, ... with humour and thoughtful input and insightful comment.  Rachel created a group dynamic that encouraged team members to be self-disclosing. - I would have no hesitation in recommending Rachel Tobin as a highly skilled facilitator for executive and organisational development".

Open Polytechnic

“As part of our wellness month Rachel gave a presentation on mindfulness. In the one-hour session Rachel went through the benefits of mindfulness, explained exactly what it is, and provided a practical session as well. This session proved to be very informative and valuable to our staff, and many have gone on to practise mindfulness on daily basis. I would definitely recommend workplaces trying this – a fun and informative session.”
- Tanya Coombe, Human Resources, Open Polytechnic, Lower Hutt.
