Women Nurturing Women Workshop 5th September 2009 I would recommend this workshop to others. I found clarity in the areas that I need to work on in order to bring my life into a whole and balanced state. Very safe, nurturing and inspiring day. Bernadette A great day, taking time out from every one and everything to indulge in self-care and learning in a relaxed, informative and fun atmosphere. Maria is a lovely hostess and facilitator. Thanks alot Maria and to the other participants. Karen I would recommend WNW to others, but I don't have any friends. This is a wonderful way to meet people. I learnt alot today, it was wonderful. Heather I think that the day has just given me the faith to believe that all I need is already there. I just need to have faith and to listen to me in myself. Thank you Ruth Past Life Workshop - 15th August This was my second ‘past life’ workshop. I was interested to see whether I would get some further insights and compare/add to my previous experience. I found that my insights this time were different and have helped me at this particular time in my life. I’m not sure whether it was meeting & sharing with a new group of people; the meditations; the energy and healing quality that Maria and her home send out. I highly recommend this particular workshop to anyone that’s curious. Thank you. Frances Women Nurturing Women Workshop 27/6/09 I was blessed to share in the Women Nurturing Women workshop with Maria and some strong warm and courageous Women. I enrolled in this course without real clarity as to why, or strong expectations. What I walked away with was true clarity in many aspects of my life. The benefit for me to stop and Reflect on self was invaluable. I instantly felt like something had shifted for me, which is very empowering and feels like the beginning. Narelle I have been to different workshops over the years and Maria gave a special element that the others didn't offer and that was a genuine caring facilitator. Maria is a beautiful lady inside and out and this workshop offers women the opportunity to share and grow in a warm caring environment. The workshop gave me the time out and nurturing l needed! Tanya Hi Maria, I really enjoyed Saturdays workshop 27th June. I found it to be a full, satisfying,and selfless nurturing day just for me and spent in good company with like minded people. The full day was never too long. Your  never ending wisdom and insight into everyone's individual story was so beneficial to us all, and  the  peace and special  serenity experienced within the sanctuary of your home is always a blessing to receive. My sincere thanks to you again, Yours Sincerely, Another Maria Men's Workshop - 23rd May 2009 Please find below some testimonials: I found what Maria had to say helped me think about the more important aspects of life. We tend to spend more time trying to make a life than actually living one. Thanks Maria. Paul Would recommend this to anyone. Again a lovely experience shared. Mark Had a great time. Very worthwhile and very relaxing atmosphere. Jason The workshop is very useful by encouraging you to stop and think about areas of your life that require some time. Mark Past Life Workshop - 16th May 2009 Please find below some testimonials: "Dear Maria, thank you for the experience on saturday at the Past Life Workshop, it was amazing, I am never quite sure about what I am seeing, but have now thankfully started to trust that I am seeing something for a reason, and have now been able to verify some of the details from saturday, incredible ! Thank you once again." Hayley Hello Maria, Just got home from the Past Life Workshop and have to say what a great afternoon it was with like minded people and of course your beautiful self guiding us through our experiences, I just love being in this spiritual environment. Susan I found the past life workshop an amazing experience.  The energy was beautiful and it was a very peaceful and natural process and I came away feeling so much lighter. I got so much more out of it than I imagined and Maria was fantastic.  Wow :-) Kerrie Women Nurturing Women Workshop - 14th March 2009 Please find below some testimonials: Dear Maria, What a fantastic day - thank you. Today's Women Nurturing Women workshop has been hugely beneficial to me and an enormous learning curve. Your teaching today, much of it through sharing your own personal experiences, has made me stop and rethink, question and redefine so many areas, e.g. personal boundaries - I am confident these changes will help de-stress my life and assist me to achieve more balance and harmony. The grace, love, beauty and integrity with which you presented the workshop was truly inspirational and it was interesting to note that even those most reluctant to share their stories at first, opened up and gave so freely by days end. There is absolutely no doubt that you, leading by example in the telling of your own life's journey, sharing very traumatic memories, reinforced the lessons we all needed to learn today. You created an atmosphere of healing where we all felt safe, calm and relaxed enough to share, to learn, to grow. I feel so truly blessed to have you as my teacher in many areas of my life and I thank my angels and guides for leading me to you at one of my darkest hours. I know I still have far to go in my personal quest for enlightenment and spiritual development and I know that in you I have found the right person to help me heal my past, and make my future so much brighter through your loving, healing and nurturing ways. God bless you Maria - I so look forward to continuing working with you. Pamela Today I have thoroughly enjoyed not only connecting with other women, but connecting with myself too. Maria's insight and smile lights up the room. What a great day! Thank you Maria!! Kristy What a wonderful day. It felt like being on a retreat. A great time to be focused and to learn. Wonderful warm caring atmosphere. Kathleen I thoroughly enjoyed this workshop, it was very special because it gave you individual tools for you to begin applying as well as a unique opportunity to listen and interact with some inspiring women. Fantastic!! Nerida I found the workshop very inspirational and encouraging and will hopefully be able to put these strategies into my life. Thanks Maria for your time and knowledge. Jan What a beautiful environment, a group of women all talking about life, loves, stresses and you beautiful lady, encouraging and guiding us. You are a great lifes teacher indeed. I would recommend Maria to all women out there that are looking for guidance. Susan Women Nurturing Women Workshop - 21st February 2009 Please find below some testimonials from those who attended: Today was a wonderful experience in a beautiful atmosphere. To take some time out and look and reflect on life (something I haven't done constructively for ages). Loved sharing experiences with the other women. It was definitely nurturing and such a positive environment to share (rather than with the inner critic). I felt very safe. Thankyou Maria. Kathryn A safe, nurturing environment to explore myself further allowing me to grow and heal on my life journey. Practical advice and techniques provided to easily integrate into my life. Thankyou. Vicky I wrote a testimonial at my first workshop, so I refer back to that, and I'm so glad I returned for the 2nd 'Women Nurturing Women'. It is very empowering. Thanks again Maria. Beck Maria to be able to hear you speak from your own experiences and the heart is just so inspiring. To challenge and expand my thought patterns and go away with strategies to use right away. To have time to reflect and listen to myself is such a valuable experience. Thankyou for your love and support on my journey. Jody I feel very inspired again, and will undoubtedly put strategies in place to achieve more inner peace and enlightenment and personal happiness. Thankyou Again! Hayley Its a very personal, nurturing way to get in touch with the very essence of you. You are worthy, what you go through is normal. The common thread is love of self. Carine Women Nurturing Women Workshop - 15/11/08 Please find below some testimonials from those who attended: "My inner journey has been amazing but since starting with you Maria, it has escalated, today was full of knowledge and wisdom. I just wish I could come to you everyday and soak up your words".You will be my life teacher, with love and thanks. Beck Thank you Maria for a wonderful day. I have learnt so much from you and can't wait to read over my notes and put some of your helpful suggestions into practice. I would love to attend further workshops as you have a real gift of being able to share your knowledge and personal experiences. Love to you. Jody A fabulous day of caring and sharing. Rechelle This was an amazing experience, very helpful to get you started on a new journey of discovering yourself and enlightening your life. Hayley I would definately recommend this workshop. Ilona This workshop is a gift to yourself to stop, reflect and grow. Practical information is given to followup on. Time is given during the day to stop, think and experience what has been said. A truly enjoyable day to re-inspire me! Kay I would definately recommend the workshop to all women. There was something in it that all women could relate to in some way. Lots of laughs, great company and plenty to eat! What a perfect way to spend a day! Sarah Past Life Workshop - 8th November 08 Please find below some testimonials from those who attended: Dear Maria, Thank you for the opportunity to attend the Past Life workshop on Saturday.  As always, a lovely group of people were there, and also as always, you bring an energy that is nurturing, thought provoking and fun! I was shown many lives, including some confronting ones – no doubt a carry over to some of the issues I am working through in THIS life!  I know that I will integrate this knowledge over time. Thank you for doing what you do – it’s a real gift!! Kym I attended the Past Life Workshop on Saturday Nov. 8th not really knowing what I would experience but knowing that with Maria I would feel safe and you always meet the loveliest people at Marias workshops. It is amazing because the past lifes that came to me were not what I would have imagined and some came through stronger than others.  It was interesting to listen to everyone elses experiences and a privilege to share.  I am glad I experienced this and it provided me with some answers about myself when I went home and thought about it. Yvonne    Dear Maria, You have been on my mind to send YOU a thank you for opening up your home to us on Saturday afternoon and guiding us through the unknown....... It is truly a blessing to be in your company as it feels like 'coming home'..... Veronica ‘Thank you Maria for the wonderful Past Life workshop held on the 8th November. I was not sure what to expect however after meeting the rest of the group on the day the rest of the day flowed on a wave of love, laughter, surprise and sharing. I was thrilled to experience several past lives in the meditations. It was a most worthwhile day for me and I would love to attend another similar day in the future.’ Frances Women Nurturing Women Workshop - 31/8/08 Please find below some testimonials from those who attended: On Saturday I attended the Women Nurturing Women Workshop.  What a wonderful day, I met so many lovely new people from all walks of life and ranging from early 20s to 60s.  I learned many things from all these lovely people and we all shared our stories, and sometimes tears fell and many times our laughter echoed around the room. Lunch was shared and we all ate too much (well I know I did) and the chatter bounced from one to the other.  Maria as always provided a safe haven to share our stories and made us all feel very comfortable to go from strangers to old friends in one day. Thanks Maria, what a wonderful day and I say to everyone (as Molly Meldrum would say "do yourself a favour") treat yourself to this workshop and you will not be disappointed. Yvonne The WNW workshop was just what I needed in my life right now. It gave me some upliftment that I was missing and gave me hope for the future. I met genuine, supportive people that made me see that we're all on the same path just different stories to tell. I would highly recommend the class to all my friends (if I had any LOL) and to anyone needing some guidance in life. You're on the right path Maria, it was a pleasure to take part, well done. TC Camiile I felt very relaxed while being open — like sitting around with a bunch of old friends. Thank you. Rechelle Thank you for a wonderful day on 31st August 08. It was a fulfilling experience and the ladies that I met were a great lot. What we learnt will be carried with us for the rest of our lives and the way we all spoke about everything, for a group of ladies that had just met, I felt we were comfortable to be able to do so. Heather I got so much from that day. I was still feeling crook with my sniffles but by the end of the session when I went home I felt so full of energy. I have a new energy and I'm enjoying the gym and exercise. I've lost 2.2 kilo's and I've lost measurements. The dishes dont get done in the morning but who cares - 'boring women have beautiful homes" ! The other message I took with me from WNW was that we are all the same, just at various diferent stages of our lives and for me I got so much from the others and I know that they probably got the same from me. Thank you. Donna Past Life Workshop - 31st May 2008 Please find below some testimonials from those who attended: I have never been one for past life examination, as I think the one life I am leading now is more than enough to handle!   However, the Past Life Workshop actually offered more than I could ever imagine. Apart from understanding some of the past - it actually gave me a big glimpse into my future to such an extent that I feel so much more happier and relaxed about issues that are coming up for me right now.   Admittedly I felt nervous beforehand but with Maria's wonderful leadership and ability to put all participants at ease, it was easy to just let go and trust that spirit would bring you exactly what you were meant to know.   I see this workshop as truly a gift that you deserve to give to yourself.  I would most definitely recommend it.   Thank you Maria, you are truly an angel in this life giving a helping hand to so many weary travellers! Love and light to you. Josie Exhilaration! Elation and Pure Joy... .. some of the feelings that I felt during your wonderful workshop on past lives. These feelings replaced the nervousness and apprehension I felt prior to the workshop.  Dipping into past lives does not have to be full of pain and lessons to be learnt; they can also be an expression of spirit and divine love. I am still "buzzing" and I have no doubt that further insight will be revealed to me.   Maria, thank you so much for the gift of your guidence and insight during Saturday's Past Life workshop. As usual, you have a wonderful ability to make us feel totally at ease and in a safe place.  I felt honoured to be part of your group and would recommend this workshop to anyone who has some interest in past lives (including our "future" past lives!). Much love and light to you my friend xx Joanna Dear Maria, thank you for a wonderful and inspiring day on Saturday, a lovely group of people and as always you bring an energy that is safe, happy and empowering. My experience wasn't quite what I expected, as you know my journey in meditation is usually strong and immediate, this time I encountered some resistance and found it somewhat confronting to have to work through this. It may be a carry over from some of the issues I am working through in THIS LIFE!  Nonetheless I continue to process what I received on Saturday, including in  my dreams. All in all a very powerful and valuable experience, thank you once again. Sue
