What Clients Say

This entrepreneurial client had hit a roadblock with her next-move in business. Having moved from corporate to entrepreneurial life in the past, the block didn’t make logical sense. But it was happening nonetheless. She invested in Leadership Reset, achieving the result she wanted, and more…

I came to Helen wanting support with stepping into a new identity as a healer after many years as a product-based entrepreneur. I found that transition surprisingly hard, and was experiencing a lot of self-doubt, imposter feelings, procrastination, and a general sense of feeling stuck.

The process itself was quite different from what I expected. I don’t naturally visualise much, but Helen reassured me this didn’t matter and guided me gently throughout. She held a really safe, tight container while also keeping things moving, which I appreciated. I also valued being able to check in between sessions – that extra support is valuable.

Since working with Helen, I’ve noticed tangible shifts. I’ve taken concrete steps towards embracing my healer role, including securing a group gig and signing a new paid 1-2-1 client. Unexpectedly, I also felt a positive shift in my relationship with my teenage daughter – less tension and more mutual understanding.

One particularly powerful moment was when a childhood memory surfaced that I hadn’t thought about in years. It felt key and deeply impactful.

Overall, I feel clearer in my direction, calmer, and more confident in taking action.

If you’re considering working with Helen, I’d say the Mace Energy Method genuinely brings results. Go in with an open mind, and don’t be put off if it feels a little mysterious at first – it works.

A women’s leadership coach, Jean was exhausted from striving, and overwhelmed from having so much to do. She invested in Staying In The Now. Her shift was spectacular!…

“Work-life balance had always been a problem of too much work. Then I swung the other way and had too much life. I always seemed to be striving to get balance. And despite having less work, I still felt overwhelmed by the amount of life admin I had to do and the little time I had. 

I felt that if I’m not productive, I’m wasting time and being lazy. I was spending so much of my time saying ‘I really should go and do…’ instead of just enjoying time resting.  The realisation that resting wasn’t wasting time, it was necessary, it was what my body was asking for to re-energise.  Ironically, I now see resting as an activity – a regenerative process.

By the end of the programme, I felt a new sense of calm.  

One of the key shifts was going from feeling overwhelmed, putting myself under pressure by saying ‘I’ve got so much to do’ and realising that yes, I have so much to do – but it doesn’t all have to be done today. And that’s the key. It will all happen, and it will happen when it happens.

Not only that, I’m paying attention to where my energy is and doing what feels aligned in that energy. So rather than wasting time and beating myself up for not doing what I should be doing, I simply re-focus my attention on what makes more sense to do. I get to use time how I like! It’s made me loads more productive.

Even with a day of meetings, I feel really good to get in the zone and focus on that all day.

I make the choice. I’m in charge of my time.”

Jean Fleming, Leadership Coach

This client, a senior leader in a fast-paced corporate role, invested in Staying In The Now. It seemed like feeling frantic in her work was inevitable…until she experienced this programme…

“Since this Staying In The Now programme I feel calm, present, grounded and what felt like a problem before, is now just something for which there’s a practical solution.

I’m getting things done without stress. I can’t believe how much I’ve done in the last month. In the past I’d have said that was impossible, and I’d have got overwhelmed thinking there isn’t enough time for that.

There is still a huge volume to do at work but I’m feeling OK with it. I’ve reduced overthinking how much there is to be done and I’m simply taking practical steps to do it: I’m prioritising what is obvious to focus on first, feeding back to the relevant people about what I can and can’t achieve, and I’m seeing possibilities for solutions that I just couldn’t see before.

There have been side-bonuses too. I’ve been speaking up about concerns I’d never dare to speak up about before. It’s just felt very practical to lay out the facts of the priorities and the problems we’re heading towards, and to know it’s not my job to shield others from that.

I’ve stopped regretting events of the past. I’ve stopped being constricted and limited about my time – I was being excessively boundaried in fear of burning out again. Plus I’m feeling less reactive with my partner.

When I started this programme it felt like time was running out and that if I didn’t make changes soon, I wouldn’t achieve what I wanted. Time felt like a battle. Never enough time. Always a feeling of pressure to get everything done. While also feeling limited with what I could fit in. This has totally shifted and now I am much more in the now.

Thanks to you Helen for your patience as we worked through the various concepts and identities during this process. I have so much more freedom around time than before and, having stripped away my narrative about ‘Time’, the things in my life that still need attention can be seen in a different and more pragmatic way.”

This client invested in Staying In The Now. He leads top-level entrepreneurs to creatively grow their businesses while staying aligned and grounded. He knows first-hand the danger of losing yourself in the scaling process.

“When I came to this programme my problem was my time and energy. I’d get all these big ideas and waves of motivation, but then be spread too thin and stop. 

I felt like I was running out of time. And was so unfocused – when I was doing something I’d be thinking I should be doing something else. And this debt problem since my past business failure was hanging over me. My constant thought – when will this stop?!

Then my energy would drop and I’d feel useless that I couldn’t accomplish things as fast as I used to.

This programme was transformational.

Now everything feels different. I feel calmer, clearer, lighter. The emotional noise has gone. I’m not fighting myself anymore. I can see what needs to be done, and it feels natural to just do it. I’m in flow again – focused, creative, and following through with ease.

The debt doesn’t define me anymore. It’s neutral now. I’m peaceful, grounded, and confident. Clients are responding differently too – I feel magnetic again.

It’s like being back in my power – calm, clear, and unstoppable.“

This client had health problems that felt intractable and they absorbed far too much of her time, energy and attention. It felt compulsive. She’d had enough and wanted to get her attention back on more valuable activities where she could make a difference. We don’t promise physical healing with the Mace Energy Method, but we do promise to deal with the emotional element of physical problems. Sometimes that turns out to be the whole problem!

Here’s what she noticed after the first Pit Stop….

“I’m spending so much less mental energy monitoring my gut. That in itself feels like a huge relief. My symptoms haven’t changed – and I wasn’t expecting them to – but the space that’s opened up in my mind has been amazing.

I feel more certain of myself and my place in the world. I’m comfortable taking up space and confident in the value I bring.

I’ve also found myself booking family trips to the cinema and theatre again – like I’ve remembered that fun matters. In the past I was defined by outputs and achievements, always measuring myself by results.

Now I see that I can only enjoy life when I feel safe, and for the first time, I truly do.“

Then she had the next session…this time to solve the problem of always being available and saying yes to others…

“It’s been a gentle but noticeable shift in the way I’m responding to things.

Boundaries are firmly back in place with work and although I’m still pretty flexible in accommodating my family, it doesn’t come with the same anxious feelings.”

This client, a self-aware coach for corporates, realised that despite all the work she’d done on herself. And despite all the spiritual exploration. There were aspects of life that she did not like and wanted to change. Here’s what she said about her transformation…

“Working with Helen has been completely life-changing. I came in with years of self-doubt, people-pleasing, and second-guessing myself. Within the 4 weeks of Foundations, all of that just dropped away.

I feel worthy, clear, and present in a way I’ve never experienced before.

I’m no longer overthinking messages or procrastinating – I simply do what needs to be done, put it in the calendar for later, or let it go, without all the emotional drama.

At work and with friends, I’m showing up as myself and it feels effortless. Even the little things, like meditating, resting, or buying myself something nice, now come naturally because I actually value myself.

Honestly, I’m mind-blown at how simple life feels now. This isn’t just change – it’s freedom.”

This client is a coach for high-level entrepreneurs. He loves to help them create and build the businesses they want. And of course he walks that path himself – leading himself through his own journey of business creation and building. Having had a spectacular and significant business collapse into bankruptcy in the past, he has experienced the full range of financial wealth – or lack of. As he was moving into his next level of growth, he noticed the negativity around it and wanted to experience Guilt-Free Wealth.

“Before – I still have lingering financial baggage in the form of debt from the business that went under.
I’m also in the process of raising prices in the business and, although I’ve done it a number of times before, there’s still an internal resistance. And I’m getting push back from my clients.

I’ve also found it harder to enrol clients for my next programme. It’s not going as smoothly or as easily as I’d hoped. And this isn’t a new experience.

After – I felt so much lighter after this. More in charge. And more energy.

Not long after I had a call with a potential client and I felt so much more spacious which felt great!“

This is an odd one! This exec leader within a large organisation expected to have some lingering negativity around wanting, having and receiving. She’d previously had her Foundations and two Pit Stop sessions. There was nothing obvious in life, and no burning problem to solve, but she was curious to clean up anything that could be subconsciously there. So she booked in for Guilt-Free Wealth, and what we discovered shocked us both! There really wasn’t very much there! We cleared those last bits of negativity. So that she truly was in the flow of enjoying the wealth of life.

She felt so delighted that she happily still paid for the full programme – giving me an amazing opportunity to receive such a gift with love and full appreciation <= something I could never have experienced before cleaning up my own wealth issues.

Here’s what she said…

“Before – I’m curious to see if there’s anything blocking me. 

After – I feel so good.

I’ve always been afraid of not having enough money – even though I’ve been well paid – now I can make practical decisions about where to invest and where to pull out, and I can see I have more than enough for the rest of my life.

In my relationships with my kids and friends I feel an abundance of gratitude and connection.

Whatever the problem I know the answer will be there.”

Exec Leader

Having been a director for many years, you’d think confidence was a given. But this leader, like many others, wasn’t feeling confident when he arrived.

He’d noticed all these places where he was holding back on what he really thought and it was causing him problems. It was fine where he was the boss. But in other contexts he wouldn’t push back, he wouldn’t challenge and he wouldn’t say what he was concerned about.

He would just go along with it, seemingly interested. Paying attention to their needs way above his own.

Of course this meant people thought he was fully on board. But he wasn’t. Which meant that when he didn’t follow through on his commitments, they got frustrated.

He was fed up not expressing his view. But he felt scared to do that.

What he wanted was to have the courage to challenge. To be prepared to create some boundaries. And stand by them. Rather than being pushed around in the breeze.

He was done with this apathy and letting people walk all over him.

After the 2-hour deep dive Foundations session he told me…

“I’ve had this feeling of confidence and grounded-ness. I’ve been more assertive and people have noticed – in a positive way.”

A few weeks later, he got in touch…

“Something’s shifted since we worked together. I’m really grateful for it.

I feel more confident and clearer.

I’m being more decisive and less fearful.

Thank you for this important work.”

Notice the simplicity of the words. That’s the kind of clarity and simplicity when you’re no longer full of emotional clutter.

I look forward to working with you for your confidence and clarity.

This coach felt stuck in her business. She knew she wanted to do more, but she didn’t know how. Then we worked together on her Foundations programme and…

I’ve felt more of a positive forward momentum. Taking bolder action to help grow my business. It feels like a tipping point has occurred where I’m leaving fear behind and stepping into the unknown with more trust and faith, coming into more fullness and expansiveness.

This client, a solopreneur, got in touch with me 6 months after his Foundations. He’d wanted to solve the problem of his desire to grow and expand his business BUT also fearing it.

He kept thinking – how will I handle all of that? He knew he was trying to keep control and it was preventing growth.

Here he was, still reaping the rewards of our work 6 months later…

I’m doing more with more ease. Embracing all aspects of my gifts, enjoying the moments, appreciating the rewards, trusting in the unfolding process of expansion, stepping into opportunities for growth. The focus is on opportunities for impact not just numbers.

Plus I’m now walking through doors that I had been knocking on over 6 months ago. There is a sense that every door I walk through is opening up opportunities for more and there is no desire to rush it or wrestle it into happening in a way I predetermine.  There is a trusting of the unfolding and the inner growth that is making room for it to do so.

When you’re ready for this kind of ease, and unfolding of opportunities, I look forward to meeting you.

We think that body problems and eating disorders are a women’s problem. But they’re really not.

This client, an entrepreneurial digital nomad, came to me wanting help with his food and body problems.

He was using food as a distraction from stress, but then because he was stressed, he was eating in a stressed way, and then judging himself for eating too much…thereby creating even more stress.

He was also exercising – he wanted to look good. But then would analyse if he looked good enough. And then get frustrated when he ate and hindered the impact of his training.

These are the exact tangles that negative identities get us into. And which the Mace Energy Method gets you out of.

Here’s how things changed for him…after the two-hour deep dive…

I’ve been feeling lighter, easier, more joyful.

I’m noticing situations that would usually have been triggering but now there’s a

I’ve been feeling lighter, easier, more joyful.

I’m noticing situations that would usually have been triggering but now there’s a lot more space to pause and ask ‘what’s happening here?’.

I’m feeling a lot more freedom to ground into clarity and make informed decisions.

I can also clearly see where I create my own stress.

Then, by the end of the programme…

The biggest difference I’ve noticed so far is my growing ability to relax in situations which were previously very triggering for me.

I can now notice very distinctly the first few signs of negative feelings that before our sessions would have sent me down an emotional spiral of suffering and struggle. 

I can trust myself much more than before, to simply not create unwanted situations and feelings.

There was a familiarity to struggle, and that’s why I kept returning to it. It was an addiction to chaos and feeling scattered.

Now though, after having had our Foundations sessions, I feel lighter, more relaxed, more joyful.

Less concerned, and less fixated on narratives in my mind.

I feel closer to myself, and closer to reality. It’s a nice feeling, and I trust that it will continue to deepen with time. 

If you’re feeling the call to live a lighter life, with less struggle. Dropping the addiction to chaos – I look forward to working with you.

This client, a successful entrepreneur (who’s also gone through the grinder of entrepreneurial failure) wanted help with getting over the feeling of being stuck. One of his biggest fears and frustrations was when he didn’t feel energetic and productive. He wanted to feel confident in that he was doing the right thing at the right time. Something that was probably second nature at one point, but now felt doubtful and uncertain.

Here’s what became a reality for him thanks to Getting Stuff Done…

Since Getting Stuff Done I’ve felt lighter and more neutral about taking action, and I’ve been enjoying the experience of engaging in more activities that I had initially resisted.

I’m also somehow less concerned when my energy is low and I’m respecting and allowing myself to rest a bit more.

I was able to take the step of meeting with the banker and understanding the process… now I’m excited about the idea of creating a really beautiful space, and taking the steps to pull together the project.

I’ve been speaking up a bit more and also opening up to enrolling others and practicing delegation. Interestingly I was introduced to a person who could potentially be a fantastic collaborator for back office coordination of mine and my business partners’ businesses – and that happened spontaneously in a call where I leaned into creatively taking action on something that I’d been unwittingly ignoring as an opportunity.

I’ve always been quite “productive,” but I was missing the ease and joy that I used to have when I was younger. I’m feeling less attached to the whole process of taking action.

I have actually been excited to get out of bed and work on a big project I’ve avoided for years!

Also there are 11,000 contacts in my database and likely a large percentage of them are irrelevant for what I’m up to now. So it’s been a joy to start going though them and finding little hidden treasures, while also pruning the people I intuitively know I’m not really going to connect with again – or never really knew in the first place.

This was an awesome process. Thanks Helen!

This client is a senior leader in corporate – a role and environment where it’s very easy to feel like you’re never accomplishing anything. The more strategic you get, and the bigger the organisation, the more you’re working on slow-moving, often intangible activities. With an ethereal to-do list that’s never quite done. He was ready to invest in Getting Stuff Done.

When that context triggers negative identities in you related to getting stuff done, you can soon find yourself in an energy sinkhole or procrastination and prevarication. Which is exactly what had happened for this client.

He arrived feeling deflated from a lack of action. And beating himself up for not moving forward on things that he knew were important.

“The Getting Stuff Done programme was amazing!

I moved forward with an important decision, taking the next two action steps with ease. Prevarication gone!
I’ve completed a work task that I’ve been spinning out for weeks.
I can still see the loops of ‘should-I-shouldn’t-I and the emotional tangles that I got caught up in, but they’re in the background now.
I have a greater sense of accomplishment.
My partner said ‘I don’t know what you’ve been taking recently but keep taking it!’
And that house move that I couldn’t decide on is now moving at pace!
I’m noticing the old pattern to put things off or procrastinate but then finding myself just doing them anyway.
I’ve also finished the leadership course I’d not been engaging in. Although not the most valuable course ever it’s reminded me of some well-worn concepts and I’ve naturally shifted from feeling like I have to be right to being naturally curious.

It feels so good to be making progress on so much that had been lingering. Thank you.”

This client, an entrepreneur who cares about making a positive difference in her clients’ lives, wanted help with two things – feeling lack of success and scarcity in her business. And feeling tension and stress with her daughter.

In my business I’ve already seen a shift. I’m alot more clear and focused on the purpose of it. Things I’ve heard for years are now making sense. Including ideas like ‘nobody’s coming to save you’ and ‘nobody’s going to give you permission’. I now actually get it! And feel empowered by that to make changes and make my business work for me. I feel solid in the truth that my business isn’t going to be for everyone and that’s OK.

I’ve really noticed this 180 degree switch aswell. Before I would be in fearful mode, having lost sight of the purpose of helping people. Now I’m starting with that purpose and then all these ideas come and I write my emails differently.

I get an idea – I just do it!

With my daughter it’s changed so much too I feel so much more connected to her. Before I didn’t feel good enough. Now I do. So there’s more attention and affection. It just seems obvious that of course she would love me. I feel relaxed, open and loving with her. Enjoying being with her.

An incredibly experienced, seasoned entrepreneur – this client knew on paper that he was successful already. Logically it made sense to go to the next level. He’d done it before. He could do it again – or so you’d think! But his fear reaction had other ideas.

That reaction made no sense given his experience. And yet there it was, out of his control, and telling him (again) how unworthy he was of the next level…

This time, he could clearly see this pattern (which in the past he thought drove him as an entrepreneur) was completely self-sabotaging and it was time to deal with it.

“Starting out I knew I carried this ‘I am not worthy’ belief. I thought it drove me as an entrepreneur, but it also caused me problems. And it became pervasive across my life – I’m not worthy of being a great husband, I’m not worthy of being a great father. I was afraid of success – even though I was successful! I was still afraid to go to the next level.

Now it’s so different. After just the Foundation Sessions I feel released from those shackles. It doesn’t hold me back. I have unlimited possibilities.

I feel worthy! I can work beyond those limitations. I have a new sense of purpose, a new higher level of purpose.

I feel grounded, peaceful, with more clarity and joy.

I got everything I wanted from this process, and more!”

This client, a high achieving entrepreneur (and previously avid traveller) had fallen into this surprising and illogical fear of going abroad.

We worked through the Foundation process together, so that she could discreate the big identities that we handle in these Foundation sessions.

The result? Her world looked instantly different…

After the Foundation Sessions there was a growing sense of being worthwhile, a kind of grounded sense of OK-ness that I’ve never really had before. Not consistently.

I started to get quite vivid replays of happy memories which I hadn’t had before. So accessing how I felt in those moments has been really nice to remember. And poignant too in some cases.

There’s been a growing sense of confidence, in stepping out to do other things.

After a month or so I noticed a couple of things that didn’t feel good.

I still wasn’t wanting to share my knowledge, without being absolutely certain of my knowledge, etc. I realised that despite the new, positive feelings I still wasn’t taking action to write my thoughts online.  And a question came up – that if the solution hadn’t been in what I dealt with in the Foundation Sessions, what is it? I thought – if it can shift those other things (which had been there a long time!), maybe it can also help with this.

And then that opened me up to consider that this method could also help with my (seemingly intractable) feelings about my health issues. Maybe that could go aswell, because that’s alot of mental energy I can expend on that from time to time.

Based on that, it felt worth trying a Subsequent Session to see what would happen.

This client in Biz Dev felt like there was so much pressure, so much stress. Having to run to keep up. Feeling like something could drop at any moment. And getting defensive if someone gave feedback. After the Foundations….

It’s hard to put my finger on it, but generally I feel more “even” – not getting so stressed about the small stuff. Not feeling like emotions are about to pour from me!

I actually had a conversation this weekend about one of the early life events that used to make me feel like it was all bubbling under the surface and I didn’t have that feeling. It was such a relief!

Thank you!

“Before working with Helen through the Mace Energy Method, I felt like I was being pulled in two completely different directions. I was juggling my corporate role and building Radicality on the side, and it honestly felt like a Jekyll and Hyde situation. I wasn’t unhappy – I was grateful – but I had not found joy in the day-to-day for a very long time. I carried a constant internal weight, an energetic cloak I didn’t even realize was there until it was gone.

What drew me in was how Helen was showing up differently. Her grounded excitement made me curious. And when I realized the Mace Method didn’t require digging up past trauma or years of story, I felt safe to explore it.

Since my Foundation Sessions, everything’s shifted.

I feel light. I feel grounded. I’ve reimagined my role at work after 16 years, applied for over 20 jobs – something I’d been debating endlessly before – and landed an interview within weeks. I even re-joined the gym and now go 2–3 times a week. These things may sound simple, but they were completely stalled before. Now they feel obvious, effortless.

This process didn’t bypass reality – it gave me more capacity to face it. I still care deeply about change in the world, but now I act from a place of presence and playfulness, not pressure or saviourism. I used to think it was all on me. Now, I know it’s not – and that makes me more effective, not less.

It’s been exponential in impact compared to the investment. I’d honestly say it’s worth 10 times what I paid. This isn’t just personal development – it’s catalytic. It gave me back my capacity.”

Before I experienced the Mace Energy Method, I genuinely believed my life was “good enough.” I’d done so much personal development – coaching, spiritual work, you name it – and I thought I didn’t really have anything major left to resolve. I even felt I had to “find” a problem just to qualify for the sessions as part of the practitioner training! I chose procrastination, something I’d always struggled with as someone with ADHD, even though I had lots of strategies to manage it.

But what happened through those sessions was absolutely beyond what I expected. The procrastination didn’t just improve – it vanished. That feeling of life being hard, of things being overwhelming or too much, just dissolved. Suddenly, everything became lighter, more manageable, even joyful. Tasks that used to feel emotionally heavy – like helping my elderly mum – are now just things to do, with no drama, no stress, no emotional weight.

The most extraordinary shift is in how I feel. I’m not trying to live anymore – I am living. There’s no separation between my spiritual self and my day-to-day life. I used to get glimpses of peace and presence during meditation or mindfulness, but now that peace is constant. I feel grounded, energized, and deeply connected to who I really am.

I honestly couldn’t have imagined this level of change. It feels effortless. My creativity is flowing again, my ADHD feels like a superpower, and I’m showing up more fully in my life – especially with my daughters. If you’re on the fence about this work, trust me: even if you think your life is “fine,” it can be so much more. Don’t wait for things to get dire. Choose to go from okay to amazing!

I have known Helen through a progression from the Inside-Out understanding of the Three Principles, to her co-authored book “The Complete Book of Awakening” and now to the Mace Energy Method. What had changed for her through the latter had really caught my attention.

I was looking for a bit more “aliveness” and clarity of mind. I’d been feeling frustrated about a community of leaders I’m responsible for, and frustrated and disheartened with the lack of interest from others in what I was creating.

After a very engaging and enjoyable Mace Energy Method process I feel so good about all of that, and I now also have so much more inner peace and a perception of wellbeing such that I am smiling all the time with no more overthinking.

Helen tells me the feeling is the “real” me shining through.

Well, I’m definitely feeling good. Thank you Helen.

Mace Energy Method Foundation Sessions with Helen have been a real joy. I came to the sessions because I was feeling worry and fear about my work.

I was also worried if I would be able to do the process – as a non visualiser I thought I would struggle to successfully go through it, but with Helen’s skilful guidance I was able to clear out negative identities that had allowed worry and hesitancy to impact my days and my work.

After the first session I felt more spacious and I noticed my response to events was more balanced. I also suffered a minor leg injury before my final session, and instead of feeling worried or disappointed that my plans had to change, I was pleasantly surprised that there was acceptance, acknowledgment of the physical pain and gratitude for the help and care I’ve received from my family.

I’m certainly feeling more peaceful and relaxed about being myself and I can see the value I bring in the services I offer.

Thanks so much Helen!

“Experiencing the Mace Energy Method left me feeling noticeably lighter and freer, with worrying thoughts no longer intruding at every turn.

Since our sessions I’ve noticed that things aren’t getting me down as much and indeed a current situation with my Mum being unwell isn’t having nearly as negative an impact on me as it would have done before. I feel happier in myself.

Also, aside from my poor Mum, who amazingly is making a recovery, lots of great things are happening and I feel real excitement about what’s to come (even though I have no idea what it is!). 

As someone deeply familiar with the nature of thought, I’ve found this to be surprisingly very effective at dealing with the thoughts that still really looked true.

If you’re open to exploring new ways to clear mental clutter, I’d highly recommend it.

It really does work!“

What has been truly wonderful so far has been absolutely zero imposter/not good enough or ‘you’re a fuck up’ – even when my first fuck up was identified, there was zero reaction from my mind or body beyond just an ‘ok, I will remember to do it that way in the future’.

For me, the Mace Energy Method Foundation Sessions have been truly remarkable. In advance of the first session I trawled through past journal entries and soon found myself seeing a similar pattern or cycle of events and thoughts. The term same sh*t different day springs to mind!

I came to the first session loaded up with notes about what I wanted to cover. I felt apprehensive about the session and even though I knew that I wouldn’t have to bare my soul, I still considered that I would need to share some of what was crippling me. After very reassuring words, Helen put me at ease and reiterated that I would not need to share anything. I would not need my notes. I was asked to put my trust in the process and off we went.

The two biggest things that were getting in the way of me being me, were the thoughts that I wasn’t good enough and that my needs didn’t matter. Then during the second session I was able to uncover a sense of being unloved.

That was a massive realisation and clearing that is helping me to not only live being myself, but to express love in a much more meaningful way.

As I’m typing, I realise I am only comfortable about writing this in the past tense because that was me then, and it is not me now.

For the process itself, I was asked to focus on the feelings I had associated with the negative thoughts. As the tears streamed down my face, I closed my eyes and soon had an image behind my eyes. Not particularly tangible, more of a blur of colours.  Helen kept my focus, and through the process I watched as the image grew (changed shape and colour) and then over a period of minutes vanished.

Checking in on how I was feeling, I was able to share with Helen that feelings I had at the start had completely dissipated. I was still fully cognisant of how I had once felt, but now totally aware that it was no longer present nor served any purpose whatsoever. Consequently, I was left with an overwhelming sense of calm and inner peace and therefore a much quieter mind.

I was so excited by the results and the difference that it made I couldn’t wait for the next session which went equally as well if not better because this time, I knew what to expect.

I believe that this process is a powerful tool for emotional healing, and I wish I’d known about it years ago.

At the end of our session Helen asked me how I was feeling and I think I remember saying something like “I think I could change the world!”

It is in that vein that I write this review for Helen as without pioneers like her, this complementary therapy would be no way near as accessible as it is today.

In fact it has been so transformative that it has inspired me to undertake the training to become a Mace Energy Method practitioner myself, and start my own quiet revolution.

I can’t explain it but it feels different. Like there’s a lack of charge in things that would have been a trigger.

The same things are happening but they’re not having the same effect.

There’s much less self-attribution with what’s going on. It feels like everything’s just happening. In the past I’d have been saying to myself ‘that shouldn’t happen’ or saying to myself ‘why’s that happening?’. I’m now feeling so much less in my head. It all feels a lot lighter.

And that now means I dream about what could be, instead of thinking about what’s already gone.

It’s changed how I’m carrying myself, and how I’m being. And people have commented on it. There’s this quiet confidence. And an obviousness – like, why would I not feel this quiet confidence? There’s vulnerability without it feeling like I’m being vulnerable – I’m just sharing authentically. And I’m able to stay present and centred when there’s a potential for conflict. I can see the whole picture, the context, my part in it, their part in it. And I can stay in open communication about it. Instead of reacting and shrinking away.

Mace has been a significant game changer for me. I have been pleasantly surprised with how my executive powers have gone through the roof!

I am so much clearer about what I want to do and just get on with getting it done without that sense of resistance I used to experience.

Thanks so much, Frank

This coach, like many coaches, had been on a constant quest to find a better feeling on the inside. It’s the quest I was (unknowingly!) on when I started as a coach too. Thankfully, you don’t have to spend the 20 years that she did on this quest. The Mace Energy Method gets to the root cause and solves it. Permanently. Here’s this coach’s story…

I’ve spent 20 years in serious self-development.

Every modality I experimented with was useful, nudging me closer to freedom.

Yet still there was an undercurrent I couldn’t shift, a nagging doubt that I wasn’t worth loving.

I was pretty sure I knew where it had started and I also knew logically that it wasn’t true, I have lots of people in my life who love me, but it still hung around taking the shine off my experience in subtle ways.

I’m amazed and delighted to say that the Mace method took that tarnish away. I still remember laughing afterwards when you asked me if I could say with certainty that I wasn’t lovable and I literally couldn’t say it anymore.

There was just a solid knowing that it was no longer true for me. Nothing short of astonishing!

Since the Mace sessions, I’ve felt my perspective shift in subtle ways and in lots of places that I wasn’t expecting.

It’s a gentle growing sense of peace. Thank you.

I’ve hated my face and body for as long as I can remember – a glance in the mirror prompting a slew of judgements, a camera pointed at me invoking horror. And I used to judge others negatively based on their appearance in a dumb ass attempt to make myself feel better about my lumpy bumpy ugliness.

And then I took some stuff to Mace (not this specifically) and all those feelings evaporated. I now like what I see and the thoughts around my appearance are based on objective observations alone. And what’s even lovelier than that is I now see the beauty in everyone around me too. I noticed it whilst out and about on holiday, observing a lady on the train who would have usually involved my judgement I instead found myself admiring her tattoos and even told her so. It brings me to tears (the good kind) as I type this now and realise how much Mace has changed my life in this way.

I now ask for help when I need to – no longer being afraid to show I don’t know something. Only today I got someone to help me check in my bag and attach the label at the self check in, and then assist me again at the bag drop. Previously this would have brought about feelings of shame and ‘less than’ but today I actually felt proud and grateful.

I stop and look at the map openly when I’m unsure (before Mace I would skulk in the shadows afraid to let people see my ‘incompetence’) and I go in to restaurants confidently, taking up space assuredly as a woman travelling alone. I feel so much lighter as I navigate my way physically in the world.

My work email inbox is an unfiled ‘mess’ and I don’t care 🤣 In the past, having more than 5 or 6 emails in my inbox would have invoked huge stress and panic – god only knows what I thought it said about me??? But now, I just read emails and leave them there. Knowing that if I need them again I can use the search function and if I don’t need them again they can just sit there minding their own business and meaning absolutely nothing about who I am.

I really enjoyed my Mace experience with Helen.

I didn’t know much about it to start with and Helen explained it all brilliantly, and was a wonderful guide through it.

Although I had some specific things to work on – like my relationship with my daughter, and a difficult relationship with money – other things came up and it was quite organic.

The biggest thing was being able to view the same (previously problematic) thing that I started out with from a completely different and calm perspective and having a deep sense of that being the real me.

Since the sessions I’ve been pleasantly surprised by how I’ve caught myself responding calmly instead of reacting tensely in a number of situations.
