TESTIMONIALS
CASSANDRA PIANETTA, CLIENT
“I cannot sincerely thank you enough for truly changing my life. I was so nervous to travel to Costa Rica on my own and to take such a big jump in a healing journey that was solely focused on myself. You were so kind and patient with me through all of my ups and downs. I was so new to thyroid yoga, rituals, and healing in general. I loved learning from you and I felt very safe during our yoga and healing sessions to bless and release the emotions that had been buried inside for so long. Thank you for including me in extra healing experiences and for guiding me each step of the way. Being included at your beautiful studio was one of the highlights of my trip and I can’t wait to continue using this type of movement for healing and release. Your light, beautiful voice, and healing spirit showed me that I am capable of finding freedom again in my life and I have already had such beautiful moments of joy again. I forgot what it felt like to truly live guided by my own light and I am so excited to continue tapping into my younger self to learn more about her. I am so dedicated to this new chapter in my life and I hope we can stay in touch because you have become an angel of hope in my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

“I had my check up last month and I had to reduce my thyroid medication! Although I’m not off it, the dosage has been lowered significantly which is so great. My A1c and glucose went down as well, so my health is noticably improving, thanks to the yoga and meditation practices!”

“I will for the rest of my earthly life I guess, be grateful for this training. I absolutely love it and every second listening to you and all the teachers sharing. I chant Wahe Guru with you every day! This is my path of healing and I am doing this training at the right time in my life, cause now I can really hear what you all say, the vibration behind the words you speak. Im looking forward to every hour of training and I will listen over and over until I get it all.”

“I had the amazing opportunity to work with Fern for a personal thyroid medicine woman retreat and I can honestly say that it was a life changing experience. I had struggled for years with thyroid disease and feelings of hopelessness that I was never going to feel better until I worked with Fern in Costa Rica. She took such care in guiding me through an individualized healing experience that helped me release emotions and trauma that were causing my body, mind, and spirit to remain blocked and stagnant. Fern showed me how to live a life guided by my own personal light and how this would bring true joy back into my life. She helped me find my voice again and I am so grateful for her. The healing energy of the jungle in Costa Rica is magical and I came back with a true calling to be connected to my inner self and nature. I would highly recommend this beautiful healing journey and I would love to return again!”

"I am writing to thank you for your class on thyroid yoga with mindbodygreen.com. In the introduction, you mentioned several symptoms that you experienced associated with thyroid dysfunction. As I was listening to you, I realized that you were listing many of the same issues I have been experiencing. I thought maybe I, too, may have a thyroid problem. I instinctively reached up and touched my throat as I pondered this possibility. Immediately, I felt a lump on my thyroid. After seeing my physician, having an ultrasound, and a fine needle biopsy this past week, I have been diagnosed with papillary thyroid cancer. Luckily, and because of you, the prognosis is positive for me, since it was caught so early. That would not have happened without you and mindbodygreen.com!
I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing your journey and wisdom!"

"To answer your question, I am feeling wonderful! I had a total thyroidectomy in late October and then Radioactive Iodine in December. My physicians say that my progress is remarkable at this point. I really owe that all to you!

My trip to Costa Rica was a beautiful healing experience that was only possible under the guidance of Fern. I had the opportunity to work with her individually on a personal thyroid retreat and she so generously guided me around and connected me with other healers in the community to enhance my experience. It was my first solo trip but I felt so welcomed by her presence and willingness to share the magical energy of the jungle with me. Thank you Fern for an incredible experience!”

“She combines ancient wisdom of yogic and Ayurvedic practices with functional techniques to help restore and realign the energetic and biochemical mechanisms that influence thyroid functioning. Thyroid Yoga® is a must for anyone who no longer wants to be held hostage by energy depletion and lethargy.”

"I just wanted to thank you so much for creating the Thyroid Yoga class on mindbodygreen. I just finished mine and already started practicing and I can't tell you just how good I felt, on the first day of my practice itself. I felt so light, energetic, upbeat and almost childlike. I had no energy slumps that day, and didn't need any stimulants like tea or coffee to get through my work day. Also I've been suffering from neck and shoulder pain for almost a year despite 2 round of physio that did not help at all and I can already feel that pain and stiffness leave my neck and shoulders... I also realized just how shy I am of using my voice. This is something I have to work on.. When we have to moan grain or make any sound, I am so uncomfortable, I had no idea, I would be so... Working on exercising that now. Thank you once again."

“Fern you changed my life from that day I was in your class in Costa Rica, onwards. I can honestly say I really opened up my heart and soul to receive all of the healing and leaving that night I felt so much lighter and happier and like a brand new person. I would love to see you again one on one when I am back in Costa Rica again. Thank you for such an amazing experience and I am forever grateful that I met you.”

“I had the amazing opportunity to have a reiki energy healing session with Fern while I was in Nosara, Costa Rica and I would highly recommend it! I had never experienced energy healing before, but I went in with an open mind and heart. Fern made me feel very comfortable and I was amazed by the stuck energy and pain I had been holding in my body for so long. After the session, I felt very peaceful and noticed the grounded tone of my voice. For several days after the session, I continued to experience new feelings of freedom and joy. I am so thankful for this experience.”
