    Why practice Relaxation and meditation?

    Meditation need not be a trance like state in which you become oblivious to the world around you, rather meditation is learning to focus in the present moment and live each day from a heightened state of awareness
    Quiet in your thoughts and allowing yourself to relax and re-energise in body, mind and spirit, relaxation and meditation give gentle and positive long lasting benefits.

    Often when we start to learn relaxation or meditation for the first
    time, we realise just how busy the mind really is, with continual
    thoughts, memories, distractions, questions and chatter.
    Both relaxation and meditation offers you the opportunity to quiet the
    mind chatter, find your natural equilibrium between doing and being,
    invigorate your energy levels, awaken and hear your inner wisdom,
    healing and guidance and offers a way to clear emotional and mental debris from your energy fields. Move forward into your life without the baggage of the past...

    Meditation is a very safe and gentle form of healing on many levels and is suitable for all ages.

    Your first consultation will include a discussion of what your concerns, needs and expectations are.
    From here, I will guide you through a introduction to developing a quiet mind and body.
    The rest is then tailored to you depending on your needs, goals and expectations.

    Pregnancy and Birth Support

    Becoming pregnant and giving birth is very special time for every woman (and their partners!) Sometimes the process of conception, pregnancy, birth and those first few weeks can seem very daunting whether it is your first or third child.
    I can currently offer you support during your conception and pregnancy with:

    Relaxation/ meditation techniques
    For helping you in your pre-conception planning with visualisation exercises and meditations, preparing yourself for pregnancy, reducing stress and anxiety, enhancing your journey through pregnancy and birth, support for post natal and the first few weeks.
    A happy mum is a happy baby!

    Pregnancy Reflexology
    A very safe, gentle and non evasive therapy for the various stages of pre and post natal. The benefits of Reflexology are numerous and can include emotional and physical support for both mother and baby, increased energy levels and a reduction in anxiety and stress related conditions. Reflexology can help with many of the conditions of pregnancy including reducing morning sickness, aiding digestion, balancing chi (reiki) before and after the birth, improving sleep, relieving backaches and improving circulation in feet and ankles due to increased pressure of growing baby, improved blood flow and lymphatic circulation reducing odema and fatigue, increased energy levels and decreasing stress levels, both of which are shown to have effects on the baby, nurturing for mother and baby.

    Designing your birth plan
    The idea of a Birthing Plan is to help empower pregnant women and their partners in designing a personal and memorable birth based on personal wishes and expectations. Having a baby is a culmination of months of change, anticipation and growth. Having a birthing plan helps to reduce anxiety and stress during times of labour and birth. I will support you with your choices and offer guidelines and help to increase your awareness of what is truly possible.

    Testimonials

    'I have found Melanie's psychic readings and meditations to be extremely helpful and insightful. She takes you on a heart centred journey within which brings about deep healing of the soul. She inspires you with the wisdom of the Angelic guides and Masters. Simply wonderful! Thank you!' Liz, Teacher and therapist


    Before I had my angel reading done by Melanie, I had the opportunity to experience her ability to 'help people' by booking in for a personal meditation session. This involved Melanie walking me through a beautiful meditation and at each energy point throughout the body, pausing, to release any blockages. If these were stubborn, her presence was enough, not only for me to be able to notice the drop in energy, and therefore be able to address this area either now or later, but for me to become aware of her blessed gift. I instinctively felt her awareness of my blockage and then it became clear to me that she was raising the energy level in the room to help me get past the 'fog'. This was indeed a healer at work and I was on a high for days after.
    With Melanie's healing energy in mind, I did not hesitate to contact her for clarification on a few spots that had presented themselves as muddy. Melanie used the Angel oracle cards by Doreen Virtue with a Chakra card layout and a Life purpose layout. I can't tell you how much peace came to me after that session.
    I know Melanie keeps saying that it is your own abilities that you are witnessing, but I am grateful that people like her are placed upon our path in life to make our journey a little less of a mountain climb. Thank you Melanie, and God bless you always to continue your wonderful work.

    With love, Bernadette McCoy, Musician and Mum of 4
