Nancy – I am very grateful for your sweet, peaceful voice guiding me on my healing journey, and into healing sleep! I’m home from the hospital now, and doing well. Your guidance on the Healing Affirmations & Harp (and earlier, the Pain and Surgery CDs) is responsible for so much of my progress. Thank you. You are an Angel.

Once again, you have made my life so much better!!! I have been listening to your CD’s/tapes for many years, regularly, especially at night. Recently my husband had a motorcycle accident and broke both legs. Needless to say, I have been his main caregiver and it has been quite a task. We recently went camping and somehow I injured my eye and have a badly scratched cornea. SO, in addition to assisting my dear husband, I must take good care of myself. I first thought was YOU!!!! I have been listen… Read more

It was wonderful to have been led to your doorstep as I faced the process of surgery and recovery. Your voice and guidance are so gentle and reassuring. They create such a loving atmosphere for facing the fears, the pain, and the grieving connected with surgery. And I know the recovery process was greatly speeded by your gently healing ways. Thank you, Nancy, for making this healing CD available to so many.

I took about three minutes of this hectic Saturday morning where all sorts of family will be coming over in five hours, to relax a bit. I found your voice to be just right – ‘grounded’. So if you do make an appearance in Chicago I would like to know about it. Thanks.

I gave your Relax-Quick! CD as a gift to each of our professional facilitators at the recent Annual Company Meeting. We then used the CD for an extended relaxation exercise during the meeting. People enjoyed the first exercise so much, that we decided to do the entire Section 2! ‘Rainbow’ and ‘Back-Pack’ were our favorites. One man never made it past the middle of ‘Rainbow,’ and just snored softly through the rest of the exercises! Now that’s relaxation! Our business client lea… Read more

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!!!

I have come to rely on the [Relaxation/Affirmation Techniques] tape, because it helps my panic/anxiety attacks.
B.V.Bristol, CT
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.

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! [next day:] I got Finding the Peaceful Place Within today. Very, very nice. Been through it, first listening to this track and that, and then after lunch, start to finish. Terrific. Again, fell asleep before the end.

I downloaded the CANCER: Embracing the Healing Journey mp3 today. I see the oncologist tomorrow so will have a better idea of what I’m dealing with. I just know I need to be well prepared and I know your CDs are going to be a valuable and significant part of that preparation. I listened to some of the sample clips and downloaded the free 12 minute relaxation audio and I knew that this is definitely for me; it all felt so right. Thank you for sharing your giftedness, wisdom and experience. Thank … Read more

Taking yoga with Nancy is challenging, sweat inducing and fun. She brings a wealth of experience, training, understanding and patience to her classes. Nancy is a wonderful teacher for the novice or the long time practitioner. Whether you are just getting off the couch or looking to get even stronger and more balanced in heart and soul, I recommend Nancy without reservation to be your guide. She is a rare treasure.

One woman comes in every time and listens to the first five minutes or so of your [Cancer: Embracing the Healing Journey] CD to relax and prepare herself, before she’ll even let me start her chemo preps. Another woman postponed her chemo treatment til the next day so she could listen to your whole [Chemotherapy] CD first!…

We love your Relax into Healing CD (Finding the Peaceful Place Within) as well as Deep Healing Sleep — and use these for our 10-15 minute meditations.

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. I felt dee… Read more

It’s not often that we women let go of all commitments and planning and just play for the day. But that’s exactly what this group of about 16 women did. What fun we had! Using a variety of tools, Nancy guided us through various exercises which stimulated different parts of our bodies and brains – meditation, drawing, movement, games… She was a superb facilitator. I have fond memories of that day, including delicious chili! We are lucky to have such a talented person in our community.… Read more

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

The techniques on my Deep, Healing Sleep CD seem simple, and you would think you could do them one your own, but having your voice as a guide makes them much more effective. It’s easier if someone else is doing the driving, as it were.
Doug C.Las Vegas
Thanks so much for the CD on surgery and mending. It was wonderful. I was really apprehensive about the surgery to the point where I was focusing mostly on all the things that could go wrong. Your guided meditations and the lovely harp music really allowed me to redirect all those negative thoughts. Don’t get me wrong – I didn’t exactly leap onto the surgery table. But on the other hand, I did show up at the hospital on my assigned date with a calm mind and a relaxed body, both of which I’m sure… Read more

Meeting Nancy Hopps for the first time was like seeing an old friend and soul sister. Her peaceful joy shines with her warm, welcoming smile. Never having heard Alchemical Crystal Healing Bowls before, I was curious about this new experience.
Nancy’s resonance with their sounds and tone is evident, from her spoken introduction to the first sound of the bowls’ tones. She blends her vocal sound with them and sometimes I would open my eyes to see if she was toning or was it the bowls?

One year ago, after 30 years of marriage, I lost my husband to suicide after making the decision to divorce him. I was left with a lot of unresolved guilt and sadness, which had not progressed very far in the healing process, despite months of traditional “talk therapy”. My life had become something to be endured rather than enjoyed. I could not shake the guilt or sadness. I began to have neurological symptoms, and the neurologist said that I should seek emotional healing for the symptoms. (Symp… Read more

She said thanks it helped immensely, and was something she didn’t even know she needed.

Your choice of words is the best…stuff I’ve never heard on any other CD. It eases so much of the tension and lowers the pain decibels so that I can always fall asleep, even if just for a little while. The reprieve I get is such a huge relief.

Nancy Hopps has an amazing voice. It’s no wonder, then, that the listener feels supported, comforted and helped in such amazing ways. I’ve listened to many audio healing programs over the years, but Nancy’s Relax Into Healing CDs truly stand out from the rest. They combine the best of professional content with an understanding of what is really involved in healing under difficult circumstances. I highly recommend these heartfelt relaxation and healing programs.

The most mature play [of the festival] is “Mind Your Own Abyssness” by Nancy Hopps. Here, surrealistic metaphor becomes actual as a man grapples with powerful emotions. At one point he shouts at his fellow actor to, “Quit f**king with my internal landscape!” Take that Edward Albee.

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.

I found Nancy’s voice very appealing. The tape [Relaxation/Affirmation Techniques] is simple, but deep… not a lot of distractions like so many other tapes have. It’s sold well.

You are absolutely amazing and so are your CDs! I’ve got a LOT of them –– and I haven’t used my other ones since I discovered yours. I’m in chronic pain myself, and these CD’s are amoung the best I have personally tried. I would like to promote them through the [pain support] group and make them more readily available here.
