Testimonials
“I found Gardner when I was battling months of anxiety and panic. I came to the conclusion that talk therapy was no longer helping and I needed better tools to deal with my anxiety. I was so lucky to have found Gardner. I cried during our first session from the presence of his grounded energy. We worked together for a handful of months and he taught me skills to cope with my anxiety by using the breath.
We parted ways at the beginning of 2023 when I felt like myself again, no longer crippled with anxiety. In the past year I have been able to be so present in my life because of our work together. Before my wedding day in July I was nervous about feeling anxious with all of the attention on me. However day of, I felt so in my body and at peace which allowed me to soak up the sweetness of the day fully.
I truly think about what I learned in my time with Gardner daily and I am so grateful.”

“I could not be more satisfied with my sessions with Gardner. He is warm, engaging and knowledgeable. I felt at ease with him immediately and therefore I was able to be open and absorb his coaching (and teachings). I practice his techniques in my normal day and feel tremendous calm and peace. I highly recommend Gardner for anyone who wants to improve their inner harmony and health.”

The breathwork experience was incredible. I felt as though I was being wrapped in a cocoon of love, light, warmth and total peace. Perhaps all of the pain I had been carrying for so long could have been cleared with years of psychotherapy, but I wasn’t willing to go there. And even if I had, I don’t believe I would have experienced the heart-opening, which occurred in that 90 minute session. I have had a lot of energy work over the years, but none any more powerful than Gardner’s. He is a gifted and compassionate healer, a conduit for loving energy.”

“You did indeed exceed my expectations. Thank you very much for teaching this class. I learned a great deal of good, practical and user friendly information. You are a wonderful teacher and I am so grateful that you were my counselor. I have learned a great deal from you; your calm has been a wonderful antidote to my sometimes stressful life.”

“After spending 20 years experiencing increasing anxiety, I found myself searching for a way to be healthier and happier. I knew the answer didn’t come in the shape of a medically prescribed pill, because I had already tried that. After just one session with Gardner, my life began to change. He helped me to make a mind/body connection that still resonates with me to this day and has impacted virtually every aspect of my life!”

“My journey with Sacred Mountain Breathwork has been transformative. Prior to exploring my breath in sessions with Gardner, I had a lot of experience using breathing practices to uplift, enhance and awaken my energies but I was often left feeling overwhelmed and disconnected. When I found Sacred Mountain Breathwork, I was ready to explore breathing as a way to connect more deeply with myself, feel more grounded and access parts of myself that I habitually avoided. Gardner gently and compassionately guided me inward and gave me tools to bridge gaps, connect deeply and awaken an aliveness within me that is rooted and grounded. He is highly skilled as a breathwork facilitator and weaves in wonderful teachings that deepen the experience and support bringing what is learned in the sessions out into the world. I am so grateful for this work as it has enhanced my sense of embodiment and built a stronger foundation for me to show up confidently in the present moments of my life.”
