"On behalf of the LiveWell Office of the Student Wellness & Health Promotion Department at Berklee College of Music, I want to thank you for the professionalism and knowledge, you brought to our campus during your Wellness Residency. These programs attracted over 135 students over the 2-day Residency. What made the program even richer was your ability to present to the college student’s important Health & Wellness information in a very accessible manner. Each of the 4 sessions inspired intense engagement from the students including asking questions about current health research, natural medicine, meditation, breathing, and much more. Students were very curious to find out about the relationship of stress to performance and learn that stress could have a positive or negative or combination positive and negative impact on one’s musical performance. The wisdom you shared will be used by these young musicians throughout their careers."
-Jane Stachowiak Director, Student Wellness/ Health Promotion/LiveWell Berklee College of Music, Boston, MA
"Jeanne was exceptional. The focus of our event (made possible through the generosity of our corporate partner, Stop & Shop) aimed to educate children in our programming on how to lead a healthy lifestyle, via activity and diet. Jeanne provided an interactive class for students of The Salvation Army’s year-round after school program. She enthusiastically presented a dynamic lesson for the children to learn what constitutes a healthy diet. After, she led an activity for the children to prepare a healthy snack for themselves. The children were engaged throughout the lesson, and eagerly tried new healthy ingredients. Jeanne was a pleasure to work with throughout the process. She actively would respond to any correspondence, and met all requests. She was a great volunteer of The Salvation Army, and we are grateful for her time and talents."
-Sarah Weiss Corporate & Community Relations Manager, Salvation Army
"Jeanne Ricks was the highlight and keynote lead speaker at our event and is simply amazing because she understands the perfect balance of engaging and audience, and smart sound bites that resonate with all. In the category of health and wellness factual contents is often formulaic as it now main-stream. What is so remarkable about Jeanne is that her approach is thought provoking and based on real science. Our audience came away from the event feeling informed, uplifted and was asking when she is coming back!"
-Lisa Avellino Susan Marlowe Fitness Center & Corporate Wellness Division
"What an informative high energy presentation she gave! I think I speak for everyone when I say that we could have listened to her all evening. I came home and immediately began sharing some of the information she gave us during the program with my spouse and friends alike. Stress has been a big part of my life, directly responsible for some health issues and I want to be around for a long time to be there for my family. Now, I’m much more aware of things that I can do ‘pro-actively’ to take back control ~ Jeanne touched my life, so I know she touched many others also! Thanks again for her enthusiasm and information!"
-Eva Maldonado Retired Stamford, CT Police after 31-1/2 yrs
"I am so glad that I took time out to attend Jeanne Ricks’ webinar ‘Beyond the Mask.’ This 3-part series goes into a lot of interesting detail, with information that we all need to help us get the planet back to normal. She clearly illustrates how our diet impacts our ability to fight-off viruses and explained the importance of taking time to breathe & relax to help my overall health improve. I think her ‘Beyond the Mask’ series is timely, engaging and opened me up to changes that I can make to keep my self on-track. Thank you for this presentation."
--Reggie. Lofton Director of Video Svcs, Berklee College of Music, Boston MA
" Jeanne Ricks’ webinar ‘Beyond the Mask’ was extremely informative. She shared sound scientific research that provided me with the tools to immediately integrate into my Life. One particular topic, where she explained the importance of Vitamin D3, led me to my doctor for a blood test. My doctor initially rebuffed my request to run this test but, due to what I learned from Ms. Ricks' webinar, I insisted on it! Sure enough, I was extremely deficient in Vitamin D3. The significance of Vitamin D3 is all over the news media now, however Jeanne is always out in front, ahead of the curve, learning & sharing her knowledge. Knowledge Truly is Power! "
-J. Caston Chicago, IL
"The breathing techniques that Ms. Ricks shared have helped tremendously. Stress is a such a silent but effective energy reducer that you often times you don't even know you are under stress. Taking 2 or 3 moments throughout your day just to decompress, breathe and regroup has definitely helped me emotionally and physically. Thank you Ms. Jeane Ricks!"
-D. Franklin Mahopac, NY
