Success Stories: Lowering Anxiety Through Self-Regulation Training

Kind words from clients who’ve learned how to lower anxiety through self-regulation

“Since taking this class, I feel a complete shift in myself, the way I am with my relationships and the way I respond to every detail in my life.”

I. R. Vernon, B.C.

“When I first met Lois Hansen, I was in a very dark place. I couldn’t think, could not eat, and when I did force myself to eat, it came right back up. I was a real drag on my family business, and our numbers reflect that.

Ms. Hansen started me on a new path, through her teaching of Somatic health. Through her teaching and guidance, I have regained my confidence, my appetite, and I have again become valuable to my company, and have re-united with my wife of 29 years.

Thank you Lois for the things you have taught – I am forever grateful.”

D.M. Business Owner, 50, Vernon, B.C.

“Lowering Anxiety Through Self-Regulation training with Lois was and still is a life changing practice that I carry with me every day. Becoming aware of the signs, being able to give myself a moment, using the tools I have learned and being able calm myself, even if it’s just for a moment to the next.

Lois has a clear, interesting, kind, compassionate, outstanding way of sharing of her knowledge and I am truly grateful. Lois provides a safe, comforting environment which I was able to share and participate in.

Not only did she show me a path, but the total blessing a new way to be.

Which has changed everything. Thank you so much. SO GRATEFUL”

Healing, Clarity and Improved Quality of Life After Lowering Anxiety Through Self-Regulation Training

This training is offered online via Zoom, making it accessible to anyone no matter where they live. While the following kind words are from participants in Kelowna and the surrounding area, their stories highlight the life-changing impact of this somatic, body-based approach. Many have found greater clarity, emotional balance, and improved relationships. This is made possible through practical tools that reduce anxiety and strengthen self-regulation skills.

Come As You Are – Anyone Who Experiences Anxiety is Welcome

Many people feel nervous about joining a new class – especially one focused on something as personal as anxiety. The Lowering Anxiety Through Self-Regulation Training is designed to be a safe, welcoming space for everyone, no matter your background or comfort level. With a ‘come as you are’ approach, Lois ensures participants never feel pressured, creating an environment where it’s easy to learn, share, and grow at your own pace.

“I was incredibly intimidated going into the first ‘Lowering Anxiety Through Self Regulation’ class – I didn’t want to turn on my camera or feel vulnerable around strangers. But Lois’s approach put me at ease right away. She offered encouragement without pressure – a “come as you are” space for everyone. Seeing familiar faces week after week and hearing their experiences brought a lot of comfort and valuable insight from different perspectives.

Each class was a great segway into the next. Lois’s use of visuals made the content easy to absorb – I left every session gobsmacked by what I’d learned. Concepts like the Triune Brain and the Window of Tolerance helped me connect body to mind in ways I never had before. I began to understand what my body was trying to tell me – and how to respond with compassion instead of judgment. Six months later, I use these tools like they’re second nature.

For the first time, I’m kind to both myself and others – living life unapologetically authentic.

Highly recommend Lois’s ‘Lowering Anxiety Through Self Regulation’ class to everyone in all walks of life.”

C. G., Systems and Financial Administrator, Lake Country
