  • Too much mouth and breath sounds

    It’s quite distracting to hear the mouth noises and nose breathing. Just trying to give feedback it was very difficult to focus on the exercise. Thank you for being so willing to help and serving others!!

  • Helps my fibromyalgia

    I love Melissa’s classes! I’ve been doing them every other day for the past 3 months and fibromyalgia flare ups have greatly dwindled and my emotional state has elevated. I feel more and more like myself and less like I’m trapped in someone else’s painful body! So thank you Melissa! Don’t ever stop!!!
