AWAKEN

“Working with Marie is always uplifting. No matter what kind of day or week you’ve had, you always leave her presense feeling refreshed and re-energised. Her ability to truly listen and really understand is outstanding. It’s a gift that enables her to help you recognise and really release negative emotions and beliefs.

Marie’s work has helped me clear away negative emotional blockages and self beliefs that I had been holding onto for years and I can tell you I feel so much more lighter and happier for it. I have more clarity of mind than ever before to make better decisions and to see new opportunities.

I have worked with Marie over 2 years now, on a 1 to 1 basis and enrolled on her Arise programme and all of it has been life changing for me in both personal life and my business.On a personal level, I have taken steps to set personal boundaries, which allows me to make better choices and in turn more positive opportunities flow to me. And on a business level, I have stabalised a weekly income in my business which provides consistent wage for me and my son. I am working smarter than I ever have done before, which gives me more free time to juggle being a mum and enjoy life.

I highly recommend working with Marie. She is a kind and compassionate soul with an outstanding gift to help YOU turn your life around”.

“I have absolutely loved working with Marie. Not only is she very caring and supportive but she is truly insightful and a genuinely beautiful soul. I started my sessions with her as I wanted to gain more insight into why I seem to repel money and why my business is not as successful as I believe it should be. So we delved into my money issues and tapped away at my blocks. Every week I saw small improvements happening…. for example, for someone who never seems to attract money or good luck, I suddenly (out of the blue) won a place on a fabulous course… so something was happening, something was positively changing. But, before long, we were too quickly approaching our last session and I was feeling really sad that it was coming to an end (only a temporary end, I hasten to add – I fully intend to call on Marie again).

But it was in our final session that we struck gold. As Marie always says, the block is usually not money, that’s how we disguise it and it makes it ‘easier’ to think it’s money. The block is usually something deeper and very personal. And she was right. Together we uncovered a very deep and very personal block that is impacting many areas of my life, one being my business. That insight and having the tools that Marie has given me to gradually chip away at this block will, I know, help change my life and my business. Without Marie’s help, insight, support and love I would continue to run around in circles with my business and not get anywhere. Now I know, whilst I have a long way still to travel, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you Marie” (Viv McAlister – Founder of Simply Skin)

“I love working with Marie. She helped me during my 5 figure launch, to uncover my self sabotages and to believe in myself and to believe that my goals were coming through. They did! 🙂 Now she helps me to reach the next level and I cannot wait for all the good stuff I KNOW will happen. I really recommend Marie and her beautiful and good energy ” – Jorunn Krokeide, meditation teacher and course creator

“Working with Marie has really turned my life around. As a newcomer to EFT and energy work I was unsure what to expect but Marie instantly put me at ease. Her warm and open  approach made me feel comfortable sharing very private personal trauma. By the end of the first session I already felt a lot better. The next day it was as if a miracle had occurred. I woke up with an entirely different mindset and I haven’t looked back. Follow up sessions enabled us to go deeper and deal with issues that I never thought I would overcome. The sessions also helped me manage my fibromyalgia pain which I really hadn’t expected. To say I am now a fan would be an understatement and I highly recommended Marie”.

‘I hate clichés. Testimonials always say things like ‘So-and-so changed my life. She’s the best. Awesome experience.’ etc etc. And they’re all genuinely meant but feel like hyperbole. I wanted to write something heartfelt, and without cliché, but …There is NO hyperbole when describing Marie Houlden and her work. She truly is a powerful force, with the ability to change lives. I’ve worked with her one-to-one and in her Money & Abundance group, and she has helped me to turn lifelong fears and doubts upside down. And I had spent years (and a lot of money) trying everything – both traditional and woo – to sort out the crap in my head. It happens for people at different rates, and at first I was frustrated because there was no ‘instant gratification’ result.  But you have to do the work. Sometimes that’s daunting, and Marie is unbelievably gentle, supportive and encouraging when that happens – which means that the work actually gets done! And it’s so worth the time and effort. I hadn’t realised that the layers of self-doubt and fear were gradually being peeled away. When I hit that turning point, my confidence quadrupled, my fear of visibility evaporated, and I genuinely felt as though I was walking three feet off the ground. So be in no doubt, this is no exaggeration: Marie truly is a life-changing force who creates phenomenal, lasting change.’ (Abigail Webber)

“Marie is an unbelievably kind, compassionate, and generous person who truly wants the best for you. You feel very comfortable and soothed in her presence. She has a gentle way of talking about difficult issues that makes you feel understood and accepted. Both through the private sessions and her group program she has helped me feel lighter, stronger, and more open to new opportunities. I feel extremely lucky to have her in my life and would highly recommend working with her when you have the chance.” (Dr Gokce Bulgan )

” Since working with Marie I have experienced so many positive shifts in my mindset and what I believe is possible for myself. I feel so grateful to have met her and to have found this wonderful , supportive group of women in ARISE.
With the group Marie has created a beautiful, safe space where like minded women are able to identify, share and work through their blocks and limiting beliefs in order to realize their true potential. There is so much useful content to work through and it has helped me to identify where I am blocking myself from moving forward in my business.

Marie uses a powerful combination of EFT and meditation with energy healing which work so well together. She  is amazingly intuitive and has the ability to tune into your energy and produce a tapping script that has always been exactly what I needed at the time and has helped me to get to the root cause of my limiting belief and shift my energy around it. The live sessions are great and I have learned so much from the other ladies in the group as you often find that you uncover blocks that you were not consciously aware of, whilst tapping along with someone else’s script.

I think one of the reasons that I have always felt so completely at ease when working with Marie is her understanding of my sensitivity and what it means to be highly sensitive.  I can easily feel overwhelmed and this has especially been the case whilst starting up my business but Marie has really helped me to make sense of my sensitivity. I have come to understand the importance of self care and setting boundaries and she has helped me to embrace my sensitivity and see it as a gift.

I highly recommend ARISE to anyone who wants to identify and shift their limiting beliefs, develop a more positive mindset and feel completely supported in the process”. (Christine Bostridge – Yoga Teacher & Massage Therapist)

‘At the beginning of the year, I did a group course with Marie. I wrote down my income and ideal job goals and followed the course full of enthusiasm. I loved the group and the work we did – I uncovered blocks I hadn’t known were there and cleared lots of stuff. Some people have spectacular moments during EFT where they cry, release or have profound revelations, but not me. By the end of the three months I was delighted with the course but felt no nearer my goals, in fact it was my slowest quarter EVER in 9 years of business, but I still considered it a result as I had a much more positive outlook. I missed working with Marie and having the focus she gave me, so a few months later I signed up for another course. As I sat there writing out my goals for the new round, I looked back at what I’d written at the beginning of the year.

Income goal – tick. Ideal job – tick. New clients – tick. It didn’t happen when I wanted it to, or the way I thought it would, but it was effortless. Seemingly random people and events combined for everything I wanted to fall into place. And I’d been so busy that I’d hardly even noticed it. Show up. Do the work, even sporadically. And get Marie onboard. She’s kind, compassionate and amazing. I read other people’s testimonials, but I secretly thought that it could never happen to me. But here I am, saying it now – magic really does happen’ ( Owner of Phrases Translations – Louise Normandire)

“Since I began working with Marie, I am more balanced in every area of my life. I finally have work life balance, more clarity and confidence in my business. Marie also helped me get to the root of old issues I never thought I’d be able to manage and work through. I have more energy, joy, happiness and overall fulfillment. Marie is kind, caring and warm, but most importantly, she gets you where you want to go! In the first month of the program, I doubled my monthly income. I am so grateful to have Marie’s help for years to come”. (Melissa Schollaert)

“Marie is truly amazing! I immediately felt comfortable with her because she’s so warm, kind and caring. She offered a safe space for me to work through some old blocks that I was having a hard time letting go of. She is so intuitive, skilled and incredibly gifted at what she does. During sessions she helped bring words to things I couldn’t say or wasn’t fully aware. I had lots of “yes, that’s it!” moments … she truly helps you dig deeper and bring out those deep rooted blocks. These sessions helped me focus on areas I had no idea needed work, especially around forgiveness and letting go of things that have been holding me back. After sessions I always felt this rush of happiness, energy boost and overall peace. Marie has been such a blessing and I look forward to getting to work with her more in the future whenever I’m feeling stuck or have any blocks come up”.
