Lisa now offers shamanic healing ceremonies through facebook but mine went badly wrong and ended in lots of grief and pain. When i questioned her about this she then told me all the psychological issues she projected into my ceremony, which then manifested for some of the most painful weeks of my life. She showed zero empathy to me about how things had gone, she refused to send healing oil she promised, and basically reneged on her contractual obligations. Not only that it became clear Lisa Bardell despises men and she projects this into all her work. She gets great reviews from women, and i am sure she has heard some horror stories which she seems to project onyo any man she doesnt quite vibe with, whichbis probably a lot. She also projected her contempt for me into the ceremony as well. Finally, when I made a public comment on her Facebook page, that she uses to run her business preying on people's trust, that I'd had a terrible six weeks and asked her to send the oil she promised she deleted the comment and unfriended me. Personally I think she is one of the most horrible people I have ever met, she has exhibited borderline sociopathic personality disorder but thankfully, when she deleted my comment, which is business feedback, she lost all power over me. In the meantime her brand of healing, shamanic therapy has cost me a friend and two potential soulmates. I have handed over to higher powers my wish that she loses all of hers and experiences what she has put ne through. If you are a man, do not work with her. She is poison.

I had 2 sessions with Lisa. After these sessions I felt worse than i had ever before. I have worked with an EFT practitioner for 7 years and the only reason i went to Lisa, was because of 1 issue.

My first session i found Lisa cold and i felt no rapport with her. It was a shame because her knowledge seemed great but i felt you do have to really feel comfortable to work with someone.

I asked for a refund on my next 2 appointments. I appreciate the short notice on the first, so i respect she could not refund me on this. However, my other paid amount we hadn't set a date for - she was very blunt and said she doesnt offer refunds.

We went back and forth and i am under a lot of stress so i gave my fiance her email to liaise with and still no joy.

Lisa then offered 2 free sessions to get back on track. Which was very kind.

We sent a few emails with no reply - so weeks passed.

Finally she came back and said trust is broken and she is no longer offering 2 free sessions.

Very confusing and not professional to retract what you say.

I then said i'd like to book the final session and at least get my monies worth if there was to be no refund. I cannot do any days except Fridays or Weekends, due to work .

Lisa said she can only do Tues/Wed - this was never told to me. So now Lisa cannot fit me in, i'm not happy working with her - and she still won't provide a refund.

Lack of empathy for patients doesn't really suit a therapist role?

I have never met any therapist who would cause stress and not reduce it.

Thank god i got away! 

I attended Lisa's Mind Calm meditation course in Stockport a couple of months ago. I had a set of life coaching sessions with her over the preceding months which were incredibly beneficial and helped me improve my communication skills and confidence at work (I work as an A&E doctor). As a Buddhist I already meditate but was finding it hard to concentrate during my meditations so Lisa recommended Mind Calm.

Everything about the course was top notch. The venue was beautiful and there was a friendly, non judgemental atmosphere among the participants. The technique is enjoyable and easy to use daily. It was presented in such a way

that anyone could learn it no matter what their prior knowledge or experience.

Lisa is extremely professional and knowledgeable about the science behind the Mind Calm technique and of neural physiology in general. She explained in detail how meditation influences the body and mind and it was clear that the health benefits of meditation reach far beyond my goal of improving concentration during meditation.

I will be recommending this course to my colleagues and patients alike especially for anyone suffering from stress or tiredness. Thanks again Lisa!

I came to Lisa at the end of my tether, the pressures of having difficult health problems, working full time in a stressful job, not sleeping at night, and caring for my mum who has Alzheimers and lives with us, made life seem so hard and even practical tasks arduous.

My desk at work looked like a bomb had hit it, I was so frustrated with being disorganized, struggling to get to work on time and staying late unable to catch up.

I had previously done a lot of meditation but had lost my way years ago, however I was able to turn things around after just a few sessions with Lisa and the Mind Calm Workshop.

By focusing and calming my mind I started to get organized, creating a small margin of time for myself, and the mind calm technique was so effective, I was able to use in short bursts, which helped me, given the lack of time in my day.

Mind calm has given me the energy I need to begin my recovery process. Within a month I feel healthy again, I am sleeping at night and have the inner strength to cope with life again.

Although nothing external has changed, the profound techniques used in Lisa's coaching sessions have given me practical, effective tools that I can use to support myself, creating a paradigm shift within me and giving me the skills to follow an alternate path, finding the stillness within me, which has made it all ok.

I attended the Mind Calm workshop having never meditated before and worried that it was something I would find hard to achieve. I have always found it hard to switch off with so many thoughts running through my head - like all the tabs open on a computer! I should not have worried, as Lisa herself was such a calming influence on us all. I felt eased into Mind Calm and Lisa was informative and very knowledgeable about it, answering all our questions in a way we could all understand. Lisa made meditation achievable as it should be. And yes, I can meditate!

I came away feeling so positive and excited about meditating and know that it is going to be part of my daily routine from now on. To me it is life changing. Thank you Lisa!

After a number of months in a new role at work I realised that I needed to be much more efficient and energetic and must also change some old habits that were clearly a barrier to success. Three sessions with Lisa gave me the momentum that I required and I was quite surprised to find a shiny new me at my desk, handling what would have been daunting and exhausting situations with a relaxed and confident composure and previously unseen levels of energy. Lisa has effectively unlocked the inner me, and corrected some of the potentially negative behaviour patterns that we all exhibit to some degree. Without Lisa, I am sure that my new role would have eventually overwhelmed me. With that out the way, I am now free to focus on my health and my work-life balance and the current and future sessions that I have booked with Lisa have been tailored towards those goals.

Before I got in touch with Lisa I was possibly in the worst place in my life that I could imagine. I was so emotional that I shut out everyone in my life and didn't speak about what I was going through and how I was feeling. I was very depressed...to the point that I didn't speak to or see any friends, I only left the house if I had to and I cried to sleep every night for at least a whole year. I wasn't just effecting myself but I was effecting my family and those close to me.

I was obsessive in my relationship. It was obvious that my partner didn't value me, and was treating me badly, but I was desperately clinging on, obsessing about his every move, trying to win him back and get his attention. I thought about nothing else, I was consumed by my relationship even though I knew it wasn't working and was wrong for me.

I found Lisa after searching and contacting a few professionals. I felt like I would be most comfortable with Lisa and I was right. I felt like a broken woman when we met. After the 1st session I felt like a new person..I couldn't believe it. A weight was lifted off my shoulders and I was stunned how different I felt.

After 3 sessions I'm back on track, I'm able to socialise again and I'm living and planning my life now, for myself. Lisa used a number of methods to help me get where I need to be and I honestly don't think I could have done it without her. I was in a terrible place in my life but now I feel like things are going to get even better. I'm going to keep seeing Lisa as I feel like she can help me with different aspects of my life that I need guidance with. She is so easy to talk to and made me feel so comfortable that I managed to open up to her over my own family and friends.

It feels strange writing about the way I felt before I started my sessions with Lisa, because I feel like a completely different person now. When I met Lisa I was anxious, depressed, and unable to break free from destructive patterns (including eating disorders) that had consumed my day-to-day life for many years. I felt trapped within my own mind, I attempted to control situations by giving myself impossible rules to follow, and then when those situations could not be controlled I fell apart. I hoped that Lisa would help me to change my thought process. However, I certainly didn’t expect the results that followed.

I am now, finally, content. Enjoying the present is something I do automatically, rather than having to tell myself to do it. I feel excited about the future, not scared, and when things don’t go my way I no longer wake up with that tight ball in my chest or feel the need to excessively control and calculate other aspects of my life. Lisa has taught me to simply breath, relax and live in the moment. For anyone looking to change their perspective and their lifestyle, I highly recommend Lisa’s coaching. Not only is she very caring, attentive (and simply very good!) I felt that she tailored the sessions well to suit my particular needs. Most importantly, Lisa gave me the practical tools and the confidence to cope by myself. I know that if life presents me with hurdles, I will be able to find a way around them and I won’t go back.

Hi Lisa just a note to thank you again so much for the workshop at the weekend. I got so much from it, it totally exceeded my expectations.

Personally you were just brilliant, the whole day was engaging you are a really inspiring teacher.

You were calm, in the moment and totally comfortable.

A natural.

Most of all, you made everything so clear. I get it, I really get it, and now my meditation practice has gone to a completely new level. Well done.

Mind Calm is the way forward and I'm thoroughly recommending your workshop to friends and colleagues. This simple technique can make such a big difference in so many people's lives"

I have just recently completed Lisa's Mind Calm workshop and after many years of suffering from anxiety and depression I have to say how useful it is for my own wellbeing. The workshop is very informative and Lisa has a calming friendly approach. One of my main anxieties is travelling in a car. By using Mind Calm I am becoming more at ease and even decided to take driving lessons! Thank you Lisa I can't recommend you highly enough.
