What People Are Saying:

“I was able to identify in my body where I felt stress and anxiety starting to happen. Now when I feel my chest start to tighten, I stop, take a breath, and am able to work through it instead of being reactive and making it worse.”

— Terry L.

“I didn’t even realize I ignoring my feelings. I was eating and drinking excessively to cover them up. After realizing this - and with Melanie’s guidance - I feel like my life has stopped tailspinning, and I am more in the driver’s seat.”

— Vincent R.
