Thank you so much, I was feeling very anxious prior to this session but now feel so much more relaxed and grounded. I will definitely be taking these techniques away with me.

Very relaxing after a very short while. I found myself in deep meditation. Well done. Sooth voice and inspirational words. Thank you, Joy. 

I thoroughly enjoyed the session. I was able to be aware of my breathing it allowed me to relax different areas of my body. Excellent!
Excellent way to unwind relax and chill out. Highly recommended. Mel has taken me on a next dimension.

The meditation session was a calm and peaceful experience. Melanie provided clear instructions and created a soothing environment. Melanie created a serene ambiance which was the perfect space for relaxation and self-reflection. Overall, it was a really positive experience, and I would definitely attend another session run my Melanie. 

​Really amazing session – guided us clearly and softly. I liked that you sought permission as well. I really enjoyed the straw breathing and how you related it to our work. Think you are doing some amazing work. Thank you. 

Mel has played a pivotal role within ECC in supporting staff wellbeing. Mel has run meditation sessions for our staff within the working day and also at our wellbeing events which have always been well attended. Mel’s professionalism shines through, from planning and mapping the sessions to setting up on the day and ensuring she meets the needs of all the workers attending the sessions. Mel allows herself plenty of time to set up the space to ensure that the rooms are welcoming and relaxed. I myself have attended some sessions and have seen the benefits not only for myself in terms of taking the time to step away and de stress to bring me back down to the ground but also within the staff who have attended. Feedback has always been very positive with staff reporting they leave feeling refreshed and re energised and have really appreciated the time to recharge their own batteries.

Mel, the way you held our space and guided us was beautiful. Thank you so much for a timely offering which was very much needed at a busy, often overwhelming time of year. I left feeling so much more relaxed and like my cup had well and truly been filled! Thank you

Joined on one of Melanie’s meditation sessions at the Its My Life Festival and instantly felt at ease. I was with my autistic son and her session really relaxed us both. Melanie showed us simple breathing techniques which definitely help to reduce my son’s anxiety. Was a wonderful activity and experience. Would do again. Melanie’s voice was very relaxing! Thank you!

Overall, the experience was very relaxing and enjoyable. I loved the method used and loved the theme especially being near Christmas time. The soothing tone of Mel made it even more special. I’m excited for the next event and have already recommended crown of beauty to friends and family members.
