“Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away.”  

Breathwork Worldwide offers healing through the use of your own breath, teaching you to heal yourself and empowering you to connect with your body, mind and spirit at a new level.

Client Testimonials

"Melissa is a facilitator of healing. You might be confused by that (I was at first), so let me explain. You see, Melissa approaches her work from a place of humility, which reflects her awareness and understanding of the roles we all play, how we help one another along. She's not ego-driven at all; she makes it clear that she is there to make the healing possible, but the one who does the healing is you. Yes, she creates the environment, she sets the table, she does whatever it is she needs to do… but she does not do the healing-- YOU do. And under her watchful and loving care, you will heal yourself-- and you will be in awe as you do so.

There's a quiet and a clearness in deepening the breath, exploring all the layers that are there, realizing there's been hidden gold inside you and all you had to do was allow yourself to be guided to it. And there is no better person to guide you on this breathwork journey than Melissa."

“From the moment I walked through her door I could feel Melissa’s beautiful energy. Once we started the breathwork she guided me and I went deep within myself and was able to let go of all the anger and heaviness I was feeling at the time. The physical as well as emotional pain I was feeling in my body and heart was released with every breath. I can now use the tools she taught me and I would highly recommend experiencing what Melissa has to share and look forward to continuing this work with her.”

Working with Melissa through the Ceremonial Breathwork Facilitator Training Level 1 and Level 2 has been nothing short of life-changing. Her guidance didn't just teach me how to breathe—it brought me back into my body in a way I didn’t know I was missing. In a world that constantly pulls us out of ourselves, Melissa's teachings have been the anchor I didn’t know I needed.

Through her training, I learned to weave breathwork into my daily routines, helping me stay grounded and sane in a time when the world feels anything but. It’s not just a practice—it’s become a way of being. And the impact on my business? Profound. I show up more present, more embodied, and more connected—not just to my clients, but to myself.

Melissa is more than a teacher and mentor; she’s a guide who walks the path with you. Her wisdom, warmth, and authenticity create a space where real transformation happens. I’m beyond grateful for her and the journey she’s led me on.

The ceremonial breath session with Melissa was amazing! Breath work is one of my favorite practices and it was such a gift to experience it with Melissa. Her ceremonial breath class was shamanic, mystical and healing. Melissa is a beautiful, kind, magical person. She is a strong but gentle guide who create a welcoming, accepting, safe space for everyone to have a beautiful, deep, healing experience. What a blessing!!
BethMalibu, CA
Doing breath sessions with this beautiful medicine woman is so powerfully healing. Melissa creates and holds a space that seems to magically unleash healing on levels beyond what I could have ever thought possible with breath. I have done several sessions with Melissa and I am still in awe over how it delivers so deeply and consistently every time. Each session is as unique, transformational, eye and soul opening as the one before! I’m so grateful for Melissa’s loving, heart-centered and intuitive guidance each and every session!
