About
Zelda's dream workshops:
For me it
was inspiring to do this workshop. I am a therapist myself (music
therapy, counseling, physical approach) and it was surprising to me
that working with dreams is so much more than interpreting dreams only.
Zelda shows in her approach that the meaning of dreams is directly
connected to body signals and symptoms, but also to our relationships
and our personality . Those are all the same, eventually. Working with
dreams encourages us to enlarge ourselves.
Zelda works directly with the body in a respectful, not scary way. I
felt very comfortable and I took steps I never dared to take before in a
workshop-setting.
Zelda has
much humor which I think is lovely in working with her. She is both
professional and playful. And warmhearted.

Thank you
for so much for Saturday's Dream Workshop. It set much more in motion
for me than I was expecting - it's powerful stuff. From past experience
I know to expect a professional workshop from you. This was no
exception. I was particularly struck by your precision in identifying
the crux of the matter time after time. You spot that moment and examine
it. You give it that extra attention. Then bingo! The penny drops, the
body language and emotions change, and the participant 'gets it'.
For me it
was a 10 second action in a role play - you stopped me and asked what
was happening. You asked me to repeat that small action, and you asked
me to say what I was doing. You fed my words back to me and asked what
it meant to me. That did it, revealing the deeper meaning of the dream.
I identified a part of myself that I have kept hidden for years. This
workshop enabled me to recognize and accept this part of myself and
release my fear. Monica
How
can I ever participate in a dream workshop if I do not remember any?
Really, do not worry too much about that.
Whether
it is a dream, or a memory or a thought that comes to mind, you will be
amazed by the insight you can gain once you start working with this
dream or memory. And although group sessions are usually not my cup of
tea, it is because the interaction with the other participants that you
gain these insights. It is a very special experience to be with a group
of complete strangers and yet feel such warmth and openness.
With
her welcoming and trustworthy personality, Zelda knows how to optimize
this process so you go home with a new understanding.

About the Dancing Goddess workshop:
Last
week I attended an interesting workshop. I was attracted right away by its
catchy title - The Dancing Goddess. Actually, the title does not do it
justice and what I got out of the workshop was much, much more. We
experienced a very meaningful and deep psychological assessment of issues
that hold us back from becoming the Goddess that we want to be. To my
astonishment, we all cling to grudges and carry unresolved issues on our
shoulders, mostly from our childhood/adolescent years, without even
realizing it. By facing them, we can free the inner Goddess and Zelda very
delicately helped us do just that.
I
would certainly like to recommend this moving (in every sense of the word)
workshop to anyone who is not afraid to learn more about themselves, perhaps
from an angle not seen everyday.

About the
Unfolding Destiny lecture:
I didn't know what to expect but I left feeling totally inspired and
invigorated. It looks like I'll be a regular at your other workshops and
lectures.

About Zelda as a therapist
Zelda was
recommended to me by a friend, despite me saying that I didn't think I
needed therapy. She said that everyone could benefit from Zelda's
ability to "see down the road and around the corner". I had 8 sessions
over the summer which were hugely beneficial. They helped me to better
understand things which I had wanted to air for a while, as well as
things which I had never considered to be that important. I was able to
join the dots between different aspects of my life which I don't think I
could have done by myself. Although this process is by no means
complete, it has given me a good start in better knowing myself."
