MEDITATION COACHING (click on Portfolio/ Med. Recordings to listen to guided meditations for free)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I coach warm, open, giving people who are ready to give themselves the gift of self-healing on a deeper, cellular level. As a result of our time together, clients develop their authentic meditative healing practice in a supportive and loving environment that frees them to live healthier and more meaningful lives designed exactly as they see fit, from the inside out.
It is my true joy to work with people from an authentic place and share the meditation techniques I have been blessed to have learned (and am still learning). It is my firm belief that when we learn how to properly observe the goings-on in the mind and body, we can find a place of equanimity and restore healing on a cellular level.
It is my honor to have worked with people struggling with many forms of disease, including cancer, stress, depression, and those simply seeking a more peaceful, focused, and productive life. I have seen some amazing transformations in people. I have worked with people who in some cases, just in a matter of a few, short weeks have effectively cured themselves of their presenting illness. It is truly possible! The first step is being open and believing it is possible. I can also share from personal experience that I have also seen these results in myself. I can guarantee you that I will show up for you 100% and bring you absolutely everything in my toolbag to serve you on the highest level. All I ask is that you show up too. With that, you are well on your way to understanding how healing works for you, your body, your mind. How exciting, right?!
For those of you curious about my more official-sounding bio...please enjoy!:
I have spent 10 years working in the mental health field. I am in the process of accruing my final hours to become a fully licensed counselor. I currently hold what is called a LPCI (Licensed Professional Counselor Intern), which means I've taken all the necessary courses, have obtained my Master's degree in a counseling field, have passed the National Counseling Exam for certification, and am now just accruing the 3000 hours needed for full licensure. I also have what is called my ATR (Registered Art Therapist), which is a certification for Art Therapists. I received my Master's degree in art therapy from Pratt Institute in New York.
I have been a student of meditation since 1997 and have been practicing ever since. I have had the honor of sitting in the presence of His Holiness Sri Sri Ravi Shankar, His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama, Thich Nhat Hanh, and Cealo among other spiritual teachers. I have studied Siddha Yoga, Art of Living, Sahaj Samadi and Vipassana as well as other meditation traditions. I received my yoga teacher training certification from Camille Thomasson at the Yoga Studio of Corpus Christi in 2005.
Since 2005 I have been seeing both individuals and groups for healing and meditation coaching. My approach draws heavily from my years of training in the counseling and art therapy fields, which results in a particularly sensitive experience for participants, as well as a core belief that the client is empowered to heal themselves.
My intention is for clients to come away with tools and techniques that will allow themselves the ability to heal on a deep, cellular level; and that they are confident in their own self-healing practice.
If you would like a FREE, 15 MINUTE INITIAL CONSULTATION via PHONE to ask questions and find out if this is the right process for you, PLEASE GO TO THE CONTACT PAGE and send me a message on your preferred days/ times for communicating and we will set up a consultation.
I am available for meditation coaching via PHONE and SKYPE, as well as IN-PERSON. Sessions are typically 1 hour long.
Thank you.
In gratitude and service, Melissa
