To Thine Own Self Be True
Walking the Path of Heart
An On-line Program- March through December 2023
For those ready to dive deep into the lessons of love and surrender, we're offering a ten-month program (via zoom) designed to provide you with tools for healthy living and relationships. We'll be covering the tools required (self-awareness, boundaries, ability to let go, self-motivate, stay the path and more) and support each other to see past societal expectations and ego-driven goals. The program will involve group meetings twice a month, one private 30 minute session a month with Melanie, and a workbook for daily practices. We'll be incorporating teachings from A Course in Miracles, The Sedona Method, Body-Oriented Psychotherapy and of course, Play!
Brief Outline
-What’s here now?- Beliefs about self and the roles that define us and how they get in the way of living a truly authentic life. More than the obvious beliefs (not good enough, don’t deserve, etc.), we’ll explore the not so obvious (I have to be nice, I have to work hard and more)
-If I’m not that, what am I?- Exploring the truth of love, doing and being beyond the programming
-The Body as An Ally- exploring the wisdom of the body and how it can support boundaries, health, achieving goals and more
-Play and Joy as vehicles to authenticity
-Engaging the skill of presence- Moving through reactivity, understanding and working with
sensitivity and empathy
-The habit and cost of projection (from ACIM- But Myself I Crucify)
-How and why to practice forgiveness and gratitude
-Staying Open
Program Details: Group meetings are scheduled for Tuesday evenings (1st and 3rd of the month) March through December 2023. Group meetings will be recorded and shared with participants. Individual sessions will be scheduled directly with Melanie. Investment $177/month.

Topics covered will include:

Letting Go into a Course in Miracles- Are you Really What You Think You Are?
Most of us, most of the time, live as if we are who we were in the past. We assume those around us are also how we remember them from the past. We tell stories about how we became who we believe ourselves to be. But, is that the truth of your being?
Join us as we engage in processes that will allow us to be free of the stories from the past and shift into the present moment (in a most delightful way!)
Topics: What stories do you keep repeating about yourself?
How we carry the past into the future
The power of acceptance and letting go
Allowing this moment to be
Remembering Self and Love
Allowing thoughts, feelings and sensations
