The Breathwork Workshop with Aman was a peaceful and grounding experience for my team and me at Healing Pathways Counselling. From the moment we stepped in, Moni welcomed us with such warmth, immediately setting the tone for a deeply relaxing session. The space itself was tranquil and calming, creating the perfect environment to slow down and reconnect.

Aman’s thoughtful and supportive guidance allowed us to immerse ourselves fully in the practice. We all felt lighter, more present, and grateful for the experience. Being part of such a beautifully held space was truly a gift.

Thank you, Moni, for your kindness and bringing this offering to the community. We’re looking forward to attending more workshops in the future and sharing this with others!

I recently had the privilege of attending a Silent Retreat hosted for the first time by my dear friend Monica, founder of ZaZen Meditation and Self-Care Studio in Oakville. As someone who has always admired her dedication to creating heartcentred, healing spaces, I was deeply moved by the care, intention and depth woven into every part of this Retreat. From the moment we arrived, there was a gentle sacredness in the air - an invitation to soften, to listen, and to come home to ourselves. The environment was peaceful and beautifully curated, offering the perfect backdrop for inner stillness.

Although it was the first-time-offering, the Retreat flowed with grace. What stood out most was the sense of presence that Monica held for each of us. Even in silence, you could feel the connection, care and spiritual leadership she brought into our space.

The Retreat was not just a break from noise; it was a return to truth and ourselves. I left feeling more clear, lighter and deeply grateful - for the silence, the community and for Monica's vision that brought it all to life.

A powerful beginning to what I know will be many more soul-nourishing and heartcentred retreats to come. Almerinda <3

My experience with Moni and her silent retreat was incredible. She has an immediate calming and trusting presence. I learned a lot about myself, my breath and different techniques to be more mindful, daily. I would recommend this studio and her silent retreat to anyone who is looking to reground themselves and give themselves and opportunity to be still and fully present. Thank you Moni 💜🦋

Monica is super knowledgeable and kind. The session was held in her beautiful studio. The environment was very relaxing and allowed me to connect with myself and absorb all she as sharing. She guided me through the strategies for my dosha, from nutrition tips to movement and breathing techniques specifically tailored for my type and the imbalances I was experiencing. She held the space for me to feel grounded and work on healing. Really loved my session with her and would definitely be back to her studio to take advantage of the wellness services she offers.

I've been to ZaZen twice and loved it. The events, space and people were all beautiful. One visit was for a sound bath and another for a gong bath. Both were amazing and transformative experiences with amazing healers/instructors. The gong bath was extremely powerful. By the end of it I felt like a completely different person, physically, mentally and emotionally. It was a huge shift from worry to deep peace and contentment. Monica is also super kind and puts out great energy. I highly recommend for anyone struggling with stress, overthinking, etc.

Monica had created a beautiful space in the heart of Oakville downtown.

Her mediation studio is so zen from the moment you step inside.

I attended a full moon community meditation, and it was so so eye opening. I love connecting with the other women and everyone was so nice.

I had my first one on one meditation this week and left feeling like I definitely learned some valuable tools to deal with my stress. It’s a lovely space. So very tranquil. I am already looking forward to my next session.
