Kind Words
I recently attended my first guided meditation session with Natalie at Alite Mind, and it was such a positive experience. As someone whose mind is constantly busy, I wasn’t sure I’d be able to switch off, but Natalie created such a calm, welcoming and supportive environment that I found myself settling into the experience much more than I expected. She has a lovely way of holding the space without any pressure, gently guiding everyone through the session. I left feeling calmer, more grounded and looking forward to coming back. If you’ve been curious about meditation but aren’t sure where to start, I’d highly recommend giving Natalie a try.
I completed Natalie's 5 week Restoring You program earlier this year and I can highly recommend it. Each session is guided by Natalie who absolutely exudes warmth and a generosity of spirit that ensures you feel comfortable with learning the various meditation techniques as she guides you through learning useful tools like journalling and quieting the overthinking mind. I have definitely taken the lessons from these sessions and applied them in my daily life. 💗
The most relaxed we have all felt and guided through our meditation session. All thanks to Natalie. We will definitely be back for more! What a relaxing, calming, grounding experience!
Alite mind has been such a nourishing experience, Natalie’s warmth and kindness offered me a safe place to share and be heard💛.. I am so grateful to have been so gently held, and guided with wisdom and patience… Thankyou, I look forward to our continued journey, 🙏🏻Diana
As a fellow child counsellor, I highly recommend Alite Mind. Professional, warm and values aligned. Alite Mind understands the real world challenges children face and is committed to teaching practical tools that empower independence and long term success.
I feel blessed to have met Natalie in 2022. Through her own lived experiences Natalie personifies the qualities needed to offer the safe, supportive, and caring space through Alite Mind for women, children and teens. For all her professionalism, Natalie is still able to connect, articulate and meet needs in a personable, fun, but real way as she is completely heart centred in all offerings from counselling one on one, workshops, and guiding meditation. She is passionate and a leader in supporting all to shine through their on light. I look forward to spending more time with Natalie and grateful for her support and services.
