The utterly unique experience of working with Matthew has permeated every part of my life. The changes for the better are profound, long lasting and beyond anything that I could have imagined.

I had suffered from a phobia of flying for 15years of my adult life but in the middle of a recent 10 hour flight having done a four and a half hour flight the day before I was reminded of just what an impact that Matthew Meinck has had on my life. Because after 15 years my phobias had taken over my life until I started to work with Matthew to heal my traumas.
During that flight not only did I realise that I was enjoying the experience but I had also learnt to care for my health and every other aspect of my life in order to make that journey possible.

Thanks to Matthew Meinck : My digestion, skin texture, muscle tone and general fitness have all improved dramatically.... I felt at odds with my body for about forty years before I came to this understanding.

I know for most people obtaining good health is pretty obvious, eat well, rest, drink water, exercise, meditate they are all just ways of responding to the body’s needs but for the best part of my life I somehow managed to overlook these things and the profound impact that they can have. I had the desire to have optimum health but I just couldn’t follow through, I thought it was a matter of will and that I just had to try harder.

I had limited sensitivity to my subtle and not so subtle physical states but over time that changed.
The sensitivity I have now has been born out of having daily contact with myself (the body) in meditation. So really weather I like it or not I can feel exactly what is going on in the body and the response is often quite intuitive and automatic with very little thought involved.

My digestion, skin texture, muscle tone and general fitness have all improved dramatically.
I wanted to share this because I felt at odds with my body for about forty years before I came to this understanding. The understanding didn’t come from the place that I thought it would. I wasn’t meditating in order to understand my physical health in this way. In my ignorance I thought that meditation would just help me think clearly about my health and that would help me carry out a plan and that plan would probably be devised by another person (health practitioner).
If someone told me that meditating would improve my digestion I would just think oh yeh that would be nice and think that any result that might occur would be a subtle one. How wrong could I have been, my digestive system is me and I can’t not know what is going on with it.
It is a marvel to me every day that from the moment I get up in the morning to the moment I fall asleep at night I am intuitively responding to all that my body needs. It’s just what a living thing does when there is no interference.

It is no small gift that I have been given and one that no other person will ever know the full depth of what I am expressing because I am the only one that can feel it. Words just don’t cut it.
It would be nice to think though that for anyone who reads this and is in need of healing that the part of them that desires healing like I did will hear what I have expressed and it will spark a new interest in them to follow their own way to health.

It is not something that you can give to someone but the people who nurtured that spark in me are Kate and Matthew Meinck. Likewise it isn’t something I can give to them in return nor do they need it as they have their own intelligence but I do hope that it will shine a light on the nature and intent of the people that I call my friends.
