"The day long workshop I attended with Gina reminded me of the incredible inner resources within me.  Gina helps to tap those resources and gives guidance on how to make the most of what arises.  Her feet are planted firmly on the ground, and she possesses a warm and hearty sense of humor.  She has a valuable gift and is willing to share it!"

Karen Palamos, LMFT, SAN FRANCISCO, CA

"It's almost impossible to find the words to describe what an amazing person, healer, and teacher Gina is. I've been going to her meditation classes weekly for about six months and have missed a total of 2 classes out of that time- for someone who has trouble keeping the same routine for 2 days, that should tell you something. Gina's classes are transformative and rejuvenating, helping you connect with parts of yourself you didn't know you had lost touch with. What I love is that her classes are for everyone-- from people who think meditation is not for them to experienced meditators. It's a different style but so utterly simple you can do it from day one. She always emphasizes connection to your body and your inner wisdom-- day one you will walk away with new tools, helpful in whatever life situations you're up against. I really can't recommend Gina's classes enough. If you have any trauma, if you struggle with anxiety, depression or any chronic illnesses, you HAVE to come. I feel blessed, honored, and grateful more than I will ever be able to express for the healing that Gina's innate wisdom, skill and leadership has brought into my life."

Alana Nur, MHS, HEALTHCARE POLICY CONSULTANT, SAUSALITO, CA

"Very quickly Gina establishes a safe container for the group.  Each journey I’ve done, I’ve left feeling recharged, energized, integrated, and the kind of qualities I get from a very long practice meditation. It accelerates my own inner work through the experience of seeing other people’s inner process simultaneously to mine."

"I love Gina's class. She guides us gently to find inner wisdom in places that are unexpected and often hard to reach. Give it a try and be amazed!"

Minna Sivola, CERTIFIED SOUND PRACTITIONER, OAKLAND, CA

“I love to bring Gina into my classrooms as a resource. The healing that comes from being comfortable with these more subconscious influences is so profound. By people doing this group experience together, they’re generating a group language around how to access archetypal information.”

Karen Saura, MINDFUL RHYTHMS TRAUMA INFORMED EDUCATION, FAIRFAX, CA

"I am forever grateful to you for the miracles that occurred in my life during and especially after our group sessions ended. The benefits manifested tenfold after our group meetings ended as I continued using and strengthening the skills you taught me.  It's been a privilege to get to know you and share our sacred truths. Please keep doing what you are doing, because we need more light and love and miracles in our world."

MIND-BODY SKILLS GROUP PARTICIPANT, MODESTO, CA

"THE IDEA OF sitting still and silent, clearing the mind of thoughts, might send some active Marinites — especially those of us who carry running shoes in our car and a running “to-do” list in our heads — into a small panic attack. But settle into one of the comfy floor seats for Gina Vance’s “Guided Journey” meditation class at Soulstice Mind and Body Spa in Sausalito, and the worries drift away; follow her clear, comforting instructions and somewhere along the way you’ll realize that not only are you meditating, but — shocker! — you are enjoying it."

Kirsten Jones Neff, MARIN MAGAZINE, FEBRUARY 2019 ISSUE

“These tools are so profound, they get right to the heart of what is really happening. If you're a therapist, this is such an incredibly unique technique.  As a psychotherapist … I would be surprised if there was anyone with which these tools did not work because they're so individualized and address the person so directly. ”

Leila Samrad, NEW PERSPECTIVES CENTER FOR COUNSELING, SAN FRANCISCO, CA

"Gina is a caring facilitator and great beacon of light for this Earth. Her work has helped me reconnect to my body and relight the fire of my personal passions. Anyone who works with her can feel her overwhelming enthusiasm for life and the betterment of it; both personally and collectively."

Gunnar Emery, YOGA THERAPIST, FOUNDER OF FLUID WELLBEING, MILL VALLEY, CA

"Your workshop was packed with excellent information and creative demonstrations and right on target for the participants. We know from comments and the attention of the audience that you achieved and surpassed the objectives for the workshop. Thank you so much for your high quality, creative presentation."

Shirley McGillicuddy, NORTHERN CALIFORNIA INTERIOR DESIGN CONSORTIUM, SACRAMENTO, CA

"At the beginning of our meeting, my stress level was 900 on a scale from one to ten. Now it's a negative three."
