Nancy is doing some incredibly powerful work with tonal vibrations elicited from a series of beauteous bowls which carried me to depths I had only experienced previously through sweat lodge ceremonies, of times spent with the rock elders. This is not work for anyone with preconceptions formed from other healing practices. As for the vocals that were present…some of the “rawness” that came out helped break down blocks and holds within me. Like claws strong enough to score stone. Those moments of … Read more

Alan CohenSpeaker and author, A Deep Breath of Life, etc.
I have spent many years studying the art of relaxation through meditation, guided imagery, positive affirmation and the like and have found your Relax Into Healing Series to be by far some of the best available, anywhere! They are extremely well presented and executed. All the positive energy you put into the series comes through to the listener… The world cannot get too much of these incredible tools! Spread the word!

Wanted to say thank-you. My mom is going through chemo right now and as you probably know it’s been hard on her. I found your CD at the UofO bookstore, and she just told me she was so relaxed she fell asleep and napped, something she never does. She said thanks it helped immensely, and was something she didn’t even know she needed.

Your efforts to increase compassion and understanding are so needed and so appreciated. This is my third time to see [“Now, I Am Your Neighbor/We Are Neighbors”] Thank you.

Engaging. [“End of the Rope’] leaves you wondering how you felt so much so quickly.
Joey Sendaydiego, Visual Artist
Nancy,
Your CDs are absolutely life changing. Thank you!!! I have finished chemo and radiation…I can’t begin to tell you how helpful your [Cancer, Chemo, Radiation, Pain, Healing Affirmations] recordings were. I listened to them every day during treatment and for a while afterwards. I feel like I need a Nancy fix after not hearing them for awhile! We are getting ready to start up our [cancer treatment] program here. I’ll stay in touch. Blessings are with you!!!
Marcia CrimCEOUSMD Hospital Arlington, TX
I especially liked the format of [Track 2 – Relaxation/Affirmation Techniques] – the deep relaxation induction followed by a series of well-designed affirmations. It gives the listener time to ingest each one on a deep, subjective level.

I teach seniors, and my whole class loves you…and so do I!….[Also,]my friend fell and broke both her wrists and I could think of no present that would do her more good than your CD. I’m ordering another one for another friend whose husband is in a nursing home; she’s exhausted and again, your CD is the perfect gift.
Joan Tabor SteigmanBoynton Beach, FL
People come in with a lot of fear – fear of the unknown, fear of pain, just being afraid because they have cancer. Nancy does a fabulous job of preparing patients for what will happen here and of equipping them with relaxing images and coping skills. Tools like this absolutely make a difference in helping patients get the most from treatment.
Julie Gemmel, M.D.Radiation OncologistWillamette Valley Cancer Care Center
It was a pleasure to have you in our store. The customers (and staff!) really enjoyed your discussion… I look forward to working with you in the future.

Let it go. Since stress is a huge trigger for cravings, learning to deal with it could potentially
save you hundreds of calories a day. This will take some practice. You can try deep breathing or visualizing a serene scene on your own, or you can speed things up by buying one of the many CDs that teach progressive muscle relaxation.

Thank you so much, Nancy. What a prompt & very helpful reply! Your [PAIN: Softening the Sensations] CD has helped me immensely — I’ve even had two afternoon naps which is not usually possible as I find it difficult to give myself permission to ‘turn off’ for awhile. I’m workin’ on it! Warmly,

Thank you Nancy for the rewards I feel both inside and out. Even though my facial expressions may not always show it during an “abs” session, when I leave I am smiling from head to toe. You are such a blessing to us all. Namaste.

EDGU and Nancy have both been such a gift in my life. EDGU is unlike anything I have done before and I love it because it allows me to work on my body, mind and spirit in a very unique way. It offers me a practice of clearing, letting go, aligning, recharging and receiving, all while strengthening my body, and my mind. Nancy herself is a beautiful, heart-full teacher, gentle and knowledgeable and not to be missed! Having her EDGU DVD throughout my many life changes has proven to be an “essenti… Read more

Let me say that your voice is most enjoyable and helpful…The affirmations are great – I say this because so much material from the “New Age” movement is unsuitable to Christians…but I believe your affirmations are general enough to be of benefit and healing to all who use them.Every blessing for success with your work.

I had a rather serious fall last October, dislocating and breaking my right shoulder, crushing the shoulder socket, and severing the rotator cuff. Just five days before major surgery, I happened to uncover your Relax Into Healing CD for Surgery – the demo CD that you brought to the Celebration last summer. So I began listening to it each evening and on the way to the hospital just before the surgery. It was very, very helpful, Nancy. Beautifully done, encouraging, soothing, uplifting.

You have the MOST effective line of soothing tapes/CDs I’ve ever used, and I’ve tried a lot of ’em… The reason I wanted to order the Relaxation/Affirmation CD is because a friend of mine sent me the cassette tape quite a few years ago and it is almost worn out!! It is my favorite relaxation method of all. It always relaxes me into a restful sleep. Keep up the good work.

How were you drawn to Nancy’s work?
About three years ago there was a lovely article in the Register Guard and it really told all about her. I had [breast] cancer at the time but it had not spread and I wasn’t really in need of, or didn’t think I was in need, of help at the time. But very shortly after that, Nancy had a CD signing over at Border’s bookstore and I was out of town…but I gave her a call because my cancer had spread and I was needing to start chemo. And, oh, I’ll tell you, … Read more

After listening and participating in the meditation, I felt an incredible feeling of calm and relief come over me.

Aloha Nancy – Just a quick note to thank you for your wonderful gift of Love and Healing. The Bowls really are healing! My neck has been so tight and sore for years. After being in the Army 20 years wearing a heavy helmet it is no wonder.
While you were playing last night at some point my head felt as if it was floating off my neck. The pain I had been living with daily is gone. I would really like to get an x ray soon to see if my natural curve is back.

I love that Nancy’s CoreYoga+ class is refreshingly real. I come away with a sense of peace and a sense of community that comes from having fun with others. It’s about balancing physical exertion, breath, laughter and relaxation. Nancy makes that all come together magically.
Jennifer Rice
Dear Nancy, Thank you so much for making the Chemotherapy CD. I can’t tell you how much it has helped me since I have listened to it. When I first found out I had to have Chemotherapy, I was frightened and angry. I was just beginning to feel good from the surgery and did not want to have to go through several months of feeling bad again. I certainly was thinking of the Chemotherapy as my “enemy”.

Nancy’s yoga+ classes are the best thing I’ve done for my forty-year-old body. The fact that I can count on two evenings a week of motivational deep breathing and muscle stretching and toning is key to ensuring I have a productive work week. Getting old is way easier having Nancy Hopps in my life. We are very fortunate to have her in the neighborhood!
Heidi Branchesi
Hopps is a pleasant addition to the company. She has an animated air, a fine voice and an engaging persona. In several of the songs [in ACE’s “Lies & Legends: The Musical Stories of Harry Chapin.”] she is paired with Russell; it is a winning combination. The chemistry between them is evident.

It’s not every festival that the Festival Director exercises his prerogative to select a play to go through to the Gala Final…But this year the quality has been remarkable, and I was so impressed with this one that I used my Festival Director’s choice to put it through. Nancy Hopps’ haunting “End of the Rope,” directed by Ben Harris and featuring the lovely Amelia Forsyth-Smith, will be onstage again twice tomorrow. Don’t miss it!
Trevar Alan Chilver, Festival Director, Short & Sweet Canberra
’Raw Canvas’ was a perfect grand finale for the Florence Playhouse summer season….. [It] is a witty and sensitive one-woman play well-crafted by Diane Barratt-Walton expressly for the inimitable talents of Nancy Hopps, a consummate actor, singer and dancer.”
Burney Garelick, Siuslaw News
I had a pinched nerve in my foot the other day, and your guidance was the only thing that got me through it…..it was excruciating, but the breathing, relaxation, imagery and especially the non-resistance I’ve practiced with your [Pain] CD for my other chronic health challenges helped keep me sane for the few hours til it eased up. THANK-you, Nancy!!!
N. Niehaus
Your very professionally-done CDs have helped so many of our patients – specifically I’m thinking of one of our head and neck cancer patients – your Radiation CD really helped him get through a series of rigorous radiation treatments. He was claustrophobic and worked diligently with your CD’s every day to manage his anxieties on the treatment table. Thanks for all you do!
Gretchen Matsuoka, M.Ed.Oncology Social Worker
Nancy brings her gift for sharing deep love and acceptance of who you are to the practice of EDGU. My time spent with Nancy in EDGU has been deeply healing and inspiring to my life in many ways from working through depression and anxiety to learning to love and accept myself as I am. I also began to grow and develop my sense of connection to a higher purpose and to my higher self as student of Nancy’s EDGU class. This was not an overnight process but I do know that my years of EDGU practice wi… Read more

I’ve been listening to Track 5, Embracing All Emotions on the Cancer CD, over and over again, because I really need to hear that…it feels like you really know what I’m going through, and that it’s okay to feel everything I’m feeling. It’s helped so much. Thank you, Nancy…..I’ve also been using your Chemo CD during my treatments, and it’s wonderful…even when I drift off, it’s so nice to have your voice gently guiding me in the background

How did you come to use Nancy’s CDs?
I first heard about her CDs from a doctor, after I had had surgery…Then, I went to a [Cancer] support group… It was a group that I wasn’t “clicking with.” It wasn’t a spiritual, mind-body healing … anything like that.

I had an amazing, powerful healing dream after being at Nancy Hopps’ crystal bowl concert…After I woke up I could tell I felt inwardly refreshed. My optimism and light-heartedness had returned after a few weeks of feeling somewhat down, sad or angry. I e-mailed dear Nancy to thank her. Despite having been somewhat distracted during the bowls event with remnants of a cold, and thus unable to “sink in” as deeply as I would have liked, the dream suggests to me that “something was happening… Read more

Nancy has given her time, passion and purpose to the members of Eugene Family YMCA for nearly 20 years. Most of that time she has been a volunteer leading EDGU, and bringing this gift to the people of our community because she cares so deeply about EDGU’s impact. Her ability to lead so many forms of group exercise led her to eventually become a paid Y Staff Instructor as well. (She also taught step and dance aerobics in years past, as well as CoreYoga/Pilates and EDGU now.)

…What is also in the play’s favor is seven terrific roles for four actors. First, there is Sylvia, a tour-de-force role played to the whiskers by Nancy Hopps. She is everything a winsome dog can be – cute, peppy, poutty, sexy, irritable, you name it. She throws herself headlong into the demanding role and carries the day. A stunning performance!

One of the reasons our neighborhood is such a jewel, is the ongoing yoga+ classes Nancy offers at the Healing Sanctuary. What a luxury it is not having to get in a car! When Nancy works us hard, we find laughter a great way to persevere. Personally, the focus on abdominal/core work combined with gentle stretching has kept my mild scoliosis symptom-free.

This is the first time that a crystal bowls presentation really “touched me” – I’ve been to many different events, and they just never really did anything for me. But this – your event – was extremely powerful….something about the way you play them, your voice…just even to watch you…..it was very sacred. It was an amazing experience…….I’m still vibrating from it – literally!

Love Deep Healing Sleep. Great stuff. Soothing voice. Been a life saver during chemo and after. I frequently fall asleep before the end of CD. Can you suggest another title to look at? Thanks again!

Again, fell asleep before the end.
