Mindful Self-Compassion (one day workshop)

I attended Melita’s Mindful Self-Compassion workshop at the end of 2023, and I think it’s one of the most meaningful and effective workshops that I have experienced.

It could not have come at a more crucial time for me, when I was experiencing a huge amount of upheaval in my personal life and a very harsh and damaging inner voice had taken toxic root. The workshop was grounded in rationality and real life, and the fact that it all made so much sense helped me to connect to everything we covered. Melita’s calm, kind presence made me feel safe enough to open up.

It was not simply a feel-good exercise though; there were parts of it that triggered me and brought emotional stuff up that needed to be dealt with, and that was ultimately valuable and healing, but also confronting in the moment.

Months after that workshop, I’m still finding that many of its lessons/practices/thoughts resonate and help me. I’m drawing on the tools it equipped me with to deal with that harsh inner voice. I’m also feeling a lot better than I was last year. I’d highly recommend this workshop – and in fact, I have, to friends and colleagues.

I felt held and safe to explore different areas of compassion and self-compassion, and what is getting in the way to allow self-compassion for myself.

The meditations were powerful, and yet peaceful – thank you for creating such safety!

I left feeling calm, and having more insight into myself, and how I’d like to be going forward.

Peaceful Kids

I saw a change in my daughter’s behaviour and she displayed a wide cross section of coping skills. I attribute these changes, in part, to the way Melita was able to connect with her on a one-to-one level, and the mixed learning approach Melita used to engage children and educate her around coping with anxiety.

Our child has recently completed the Peaceful Kids course with Melita and we can highly recommend it! It’s a small investment for lifelong changes and skills that will serve them (and you) for years to come. Thanks again Melita. Your knowledge, skills and approach are second to none.

Peaceful Parents

I found the parent sessions very informative and useful. Melita created a comfortable, safe and very engaging environment in the adult sessions. The group felt safe to share relevant personal stories, in a non judgemental space. This is a credit to Melita, who struck a perfect balance of professionalism and care in the sessions.

The content was delivered in a structured format, and Melita was great at explaining everything in a relatable way. At the end of the four sessions, I felt more like I had a greater perspective on peaceful parenting, and walked away with a lot of tools I knew I could easily implement in my home.

I have learned a lot of really helpful tips to help me be more aware of how I parent and ways I can better relate to, and connect with, my kids.
