Having Clearlight as my mentor in my teacher training study was an absolute honour and a true blessing. I dove into the study of these beautiful teachings and inquiries under her most skillful and caring guidance, and experience tremendous growth both in my personal experience of meditation and in my ability to share the practice with others. Clearlight's profound depth of knowledge and her ability to reveal the rich subtleties of this practice with such clarity left me in awe and kept me inspired to dig deeper. During our meetings, I found myself wanting to write everything down as she illuminated new aspects of these teachings. It was an amazing learning experience made all the more enriching by Clearlight's exceptional teaching ability. Her name says it all.

Clearlight Gerald is a wonderful Mentor! She was timely, extremely organized, and gave me excellent feedback based on where I am at in my practice and teaching. When she learned I am a teacher of yoga that is influenced in Kashmir Shaivism and that I had done many trainings, she tailored the feedback to meet me where I was so that I was challenged and able to learn so much. Being a teacher, I know this a developed and very valuable skill to have in a Mentor, and I benefited from it tremendously. My time with her was packed with great and useful feedback and what to work on for our next phone communication. She really broke things down into digestible chunks of work that was doable and didn’t feel overwhelming. She is fair and gifted in the art of assessment. I feel very fortunate to have had this experience with her!

I was personally stressed out from my previous delivery experience (emergency c-section) and I was attempting a non-medicated VBAC for the second delivery. Clearlight prepared me and my husband to use different tools for natural pain control that were simple and easy to remember amid the delivery pain. My husband felt confident during my delivery to coach me using breathing and massaging techniques, and mindfulness and positive affirmations that we learned from the class. We felt so empowered and we had an amazing birth experience. I am very grateful to Clearlight for the time, knowledge and attention she provided us and would definitely recommend Clearlight for any expecting couple. We used every single tool during labor which made the three days of labor tolerable and intervention-free as we originally wished. Thank you so much for everything!

For more than 7 years now, whenever life has tested me, I’ve turned to Clearlight for support. She has a unique ability to guide one on a journey inside the self, using yoga nidra as a vehicle. By leading you on a path of inquiry, she can help you to find your own deeply buried inner truth. With her help, I have experienced profound emotional and physical healing, at a level I would never have imagined possible.

Thank you so much for not only your time today but your clarity, guidance, and innate knowing. Your mentoring is making such a difference in my experience. Thank you so very much for your encouragement.

I wanted to take a moment to say thank you for the gift of connection. A friend of mine was curious about Yoga Nidra. While explaining it, it took me back to your kindness and gentleness with me in our healing sessions together.
You were the only one who made me feel safe enough to feel for the first time after more than a decade of disconnection and trauma.
I will be eternally grateful to you.

My therapist suggested I meet with you to build a toolset of mindfulness practices... I am so glad she did because our sessions brought this and so much more. Not only have I learned ways to work with my anxiety, but I feel like I have a way to come home to myself now... it has been a great support to my therapy and to my life as a whole. I don't feel afraid of anxiety any more... I feel happier... I'm really grateful.
- Angie W.
I came to you in the midst of recovering from a cancer diagnosis... our sessions together gave me a place to connect to my feelings, regroup, and gain the needed strength to both heal and to take care of my family. Our sessions were instrumental in my healing. Thank you Clearlight!
- Jeanette
This has been such a difficult time, before I found you I felt really alone and depressed. I know when we meet that you understand what I'm going through, and I feel SO much better after each session... my body feels more alive, and I feel like my belly and pelvis are being breathed in a way I have never felt before. I am much more relaxed and grounded... I now feel ready to start IVF and I credit my ease and trust in this process to you Clearlight. Thank you for your continued support.
