Melanie Smithson is passionate about enriching the experience of life and teaching the importance of a playful, released attitude.  Being an expert at play, movement and releasing, Melanie naturally brings a sense of humor about herself and life into her presentations, making her an engaging and approachable speaker.  Audiences immediately feel a sense of safety and connection because of Melanie’s warm, inviting style.
An experienced health care professional, business owner, educator and dancer, Melanie knows first hand the power of letting go.  The blended practices of movement, play and Sedona Method Releasing® offer easy and effective ways to discover and let go of the fears, beliefs and habits that sabotage dreams.

Learning to drop below the conscious mind through movement, releasing and other practices is imperative to clearing out the past.  The realm of the subconscious is where Melanie shines.  Allowing and exploring what’s below the surface is a place where she has spent many hours with clients and feels at home.  Melanie’s comfort level supports those she works with to dive below the surface. Her expert facilitation allows clients to move with and transform the subconscious blocks to having and being.

Melanie’s work with the body also supports success in learning to use the body as an ally.  In the culture of the United States (and many others), we are very limited in our range of movement.  We sit with our legs crossed, our arms folded, and don’t allow ourselves to get too big or too loud.  Even the most inexperienced at body language can read disinterest when the person they are speaking with crosses their arms.  When we are limited in expression in the body, we are limited in expression in the world.  We can all learn to listen and use the body in easy and compassionate ways.  Melanie’s background as a body-oriented psychotherapist supports a gentle, non-threatening approach to the body.  She teaches how to use the body as an ally, how play and movement can inform and transform, and how letting go can support having.

Concrete, inspirational and stimulating, Melanie’s speaking creates genuine interest, response and discussion which supports growth and insight unique to each individual.

Organizations benefit tremendously by giving employees an opportunity to experience the inspiring words and methods Melanie presents.  In an uncertain and ever-changing world, organizations are consistently being asked to adapt, meet adversity and ultimately succeed.  Melanie facilitates this occurrence by awakening the spirit of employees, stimulating the resilience of the individual and the organization.

Melanie expertly employs her Sedona Method training and Somatic Psychotherapy Masters degree, along with her professional counselor license and EMDR and Hypnotherapy certifications to effectively motivate and move audiences.  Listeners of Melanie’s presentations are able to identify and step beyond whatever it may be that blocks the path to true success and enjoying life.
