READ WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT MELANIE:

“[With] the spice, the humor, and the vitality of your dear sweet humanness ... you are a great teacher.” Emmanuel, author of Emmanuel's Book

“For over five years, I have been honored to work with Melanie Votaw, a nurturing and compassionate spiritual mentor who has guided me to new levels of awareness and growth. She has successfully fostered my artistic career paths, and my dreams have completely manifested thanks to her enduring supportive work! I am eternally grateful for her generous contributions to my world.” Vicki Herschman, Script Supervisor

“Melanie Votaw has touched my life in numerous ways. She taught me to be more compassionate toward myself, a lesson reinforced by her compassion for and belief in me, and taught me the power of such belief when it comes to manifesting results in my life. Additionally, her insights regarding dreams have helped me as a psychotherapist to better understand my clients' dreams. Melanie is a teacher and human being of the utmost integrity who possesses great love and pure vision, and meeting and learning from her has been a powerful and uplifting experience.” Claudia Miles, Psychotherapist

“I felt God’s presence in the room while you spoke.” Lecture attendee

"Melanie's classes are a pure delight.  Her guidance, creative visualizations and meditations are unique. It's a real therapy awakening my senses, and makes my soul happy. I particularly enjoy the "magical" effect of her inviting, enchanting, awesome meditations. They have helped me discover my real life purpose by unlocking so many creative doors. The positive and constructive energy of the class brings out the best of my Self. I always leave the session revitalized, with a clear mind, more confident and ready to embrace the challenging week. Melanie's classes are my favorite creative multi-vitamin, a must for my spiritual growth. I highly recommend the class to anyone ready to grow." Cathy Oyoue, Fashion Designer

"Over the last two decades, my work as a radio talk show host has given me the opportunity to meet and interview many people who use regressive hypnosis and visualization techniques to help others. It's important that a mutual relationship of trust develops between the person conducting a hypnosis session and the individual on the receiving end of it. Melanie Votaw is great at what she does - she engenders that trust factor with her clients, and is righteous and passionate about her work. She also has the right attitude, knowledge, and the perfect voice (yes, that's important) for this kind of work. If only we could clone her!" Elliot Lee Speigel, Producer/host/creator of "The Edge of Reality," Talk America Radio Network 

“It was very special to participate in the [“Discovering Your Life Purpose”] class you taught at the Learning Annex. I asked you there whether you could give numbers of people in Switzerland who do similar work. Even though you only could get hold of a bookshop’s name, you still gave me a call and let me know. I very highly appreciate that. What a beautiful person you are and what a pleasure to have met you.” Letter from Thomas, seminar attendee

“Melanie’s fine perceptions and insights have been most valuable to me over the years. Her comments have always been constructive, originating in the loving understanding of our human condition. She never hesitates to reach for a deeper level of knowing herself and others. It is particularly in this area where I admire her courage. She is never complacent, always eager to probe greater depth. Additionally, her sense of humor, quick wit, intelligence, and lighthearted laughter are a real delight.” Erna Rubik
