Testimonials
It was a moment of truth being diagnosed with stage 3 cancer last year, as I have never been sick before. I had to finally face deeper questions and connections in myself and my past.
The decision to work with Anna was not only my wish, but also from the closest family who wanted to support me through a more holistic approach and someone capable to make a difference. The holistic approach has transformed not only my physical wellbeing but also all aspects of my life. Anna´s way to deep dive is very effective. The practical mental tools she shares are life savers.
After my journey with Anna’s support and guidance, I feel like a new person, a better person in many ways. I thought with the diagnosis, that my life had ended but it was a transformation from an ego centric life to a true presence.
Throughout our work together I have certainly experienced growth on several levels. It began with allowing myself to ask , go for, and receive what I want, shifting and rescripting limiting life-long patterns, and integrating that into my everyday life.
After working with Anna for six months, I no longer feel like things, people, or circumstances (past, present, or future) have power over me, this is very different and definitely transformational. I feel a lot more free, as well as a deep sense of structure, confidence, and sturdiness, physically in my body, as well as mentally and emotionally.
A major change I’ve noticed while working with Anna is my ability to set boundaries and confidently ask for what I want. This has been a profound shift, it’s like that part of me that was too afraid to fight for me is back. I went from living on autopilot to having more control and decisiveness in my life. I’m no longer limited by the tunnel vision experience that I had most of my life. I am truly a different person. Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart!
After moving to another country, I felt like I was stuck in a big hole. I didn’t know where I belonged, whether I was on the right path. I often felt lonely and just wrong. This affected my whole life – my relationships, my work life, but most of all my relationship with myself. I started to suppress everything and make myself small. I had been interested in spirituality and meditation for several years, but had never really explored it. After regularly attending Anna’s women’s circles in Lucerne, I realized how much better I felt after these events. After 9 months, I asked Anna if she would consider working with me individually. And it was the best thing that could have happened to me during this difficult time. Today I feel more self-confident and have much more patience for my needs and confidence in life.
I was struggling with anxiety about moving into a new country which I was very opposed to recognize and accept before I did my sessions with Anna. With her unconditional support even outside our sessions and availability to support me with her advice, I connected to myself in a very spiritual way. She directed the compass of my life back to myself, showing me that all the answers and longings I have are fulfilled from within. I started meditating everyday ever since and did inner child every week, which literally is an assurity to my mental health that no matter what happens in my life, I will continue hearing my inner self everyday, which in longer term completely healed my anxiety. Today I hardly face any anxiety, if I do, my default is to put one hand on my chest and one on my belly (very classic of Anna) and ask my self what it needs. I if have to put in word, would say, Anna literally saved me, in the worst of my times, when the only feeling of safety and affirmation I had was Anna.
I came to Anna after suffering from a traumatic medical intervention and a body/mind disassociation as a result.
My world had shrunk to one of pain and the feeling of being an invalid.
Anna was able to help me reconnect my mind and body, and develop a healthy, healing and loving relationship with myself again.
I had already seen Anna‘s transformational work with others and can only bear testimony as to how effective her work is. She is compassionate and loving in her approach but also not afraid to help you see truths you may have chosen to ignore.
Anna is remarkable on so many levels. Her intelligence and insight are powerful, but it’s her no nonsense approach that stands out. Anna gets straight to the point with honesty and kindness. Some people call it “tough love”, but I call it invaluable. She has a gift of getting to the heart of the matter and is able to ask just the right questions to lead clients to a place of deeper thought. Her approach is refreshing, powerful, and unique. My words fail at expressing my gratitude for Anna’s help in leading me to a place not only of better understanding of where I’m heading, but for helping me create an action plan that is actually logical and useful. I feel better equipped to move forward with my goals after working with her and I cannot praise her highly enough.
There are times when I unconsciously get trapped by my thoughts and feel anxious about the uncertainty the current situation has brought. Fortunately, there are people out there like Anna who are willing to help you understand the difference between what is real and what isn’t (usually the thoughts and scenarios we create in our head). In addition, as I’m currently on a journey of transitioning to a new phase in my life, she has helped me set goals, become more aware of the language I use when talking or thinking, as well as understand the value of meditation whenever I’m triggered, confused or anxious. Moving forward, I feel more confident and powerful in achieving my goals.
Time with Anna has been uplifting and inciteful. There are many things that a person can go through during a lapse of a day BUT Anna has been able to give me insight and has shared techniques for bringing it back to the MOMENT. Whether it’s her Instagram stories that keep you Diggin into your cognitive theories of oneself (go check them out if you haven’t already) or just her connection with nature and with herself, she most definitely sets a motivation in everyone she comes into contact with. A powerful self indeed!
The Powerful Self Embodiment & Integration has been truly transformative for me. One of my biggest takeaways from this experience has been the profound sense of refreshment it has brought to my previous 1:1 work with Anna. Through the resources and support provided by it I’ve been able to approach my collaborations with Anna with renewed energy and insight.
Moreover, being a member has given me the opportunity to reflect once again on some of the issues I have been carrying with me. The discussions, workshops, and interactions within the community have allowed me to delve deeper into these issues, gaining new perspectives and finding constructive ways to address them.
Overall, has not only refreshed my professional endeavors but has also provided me with a valuable space for personal growth and reflection. I am truly grateful for the enriching experiences and connections I have gained through this membership. Thank you!
Anna’s natural talent to coach and mentor is impressive. As a fellow student in training with Anna, I found myself studying her as she applied deep listening skills, quickly gaining clarity as she guided clients to discover answers to their toughest questions. Anna serves her clients with the highest level of integrity, respect, and honesty and is an outstanding “accountability partner”. I truly appreciate her genuine care and no-nonsense approach, and highly recommend Anna Bilan as an outstanding Transformational Coach.
