“Normally, I shy away from group events, but Lorna created such a safe space which made being in a group feel magical.
Being in the presence of others who were tapping into their inner voices seemed to amplify the experience.
It was amazing to see the similarities that came through the experience for everyone involved.
Truly makes you realize how connected we all are, which in and of itself is such a gift.”

Have you been craving more ease and inner freedom?
Join us to learn about your inner voice (what I call your soul essence) and how to access your inner source of unconditional love and wisdom at any time.
If you’re often second guessing, doubting, “shoulding” on yourself, or frequently in fear or anxiety about making the “right” decision, you’ll learn practices that will help you come back to your grounded center at any time and place so you can move forward with clarity.
We’ll talk about why we lose sight of our inner wisdom, how we can offer lots of compassion for ourselves when we feel stuck, and a simple method to let go of the struggle.
I’ll guide the group in a body-based meditation practice you can use in day to day life, even when you feel overwhelmed, indecisive, or unsure of yourself.
For those who would like to apply this meditation practice to a specific situation or circumstance you’re navigating, you’ll have the opportunity for 1:1 inner voice facilitation in the “hot seat.” Participants in this event will all be able to learn from each other’s shares, and see that you’re not alone.

Meet your Hosts:
-
Lorna Stell is an Inner Voice Facilitator, teacher, and coach based in Salem, MA.
Her specialty is helping people shift from fear and stress to living from their inner wisdom, for a life of more ease, pleasure, and clarity.
After a chronic illness flare-up turned spiritual awakening in 2018, Lorna realized she had an inner knowing that wanted to guide her towards vitality, unconditional self-love, and freedom. It’s been a continual journey in that direction ever since.
Today, she guides her clients to deepen their relationship with their inner voice (soul essence, inner wisdom) so they can release the beliefs, unprocessed emotions, and physical symptoms holding them back from the life they desire. Ultimately, her work is all about love of the self and love of the body.

What past attendees had to say:
“It inspired me to make more time to be quiet and listen to my inner voice :)
[I now have] new awareness of tension in my body and when I pay attention and send me breath there, it can dissipate rather than grow.
The talk you gave with the slides helped me thing about things in a new way - especially the graphics and cartoons, they really helped illustrate what can be very challenging, esoteric concepts.
Lorna is so welcoming, nonjudgmental and she makes the topics very approachable. Lorna is amazing at holding space and encouraging us to get curious about our own minds, bodies and emotions.”
—Lindsay
“[Before Trust Yourself] It’s been challenging to surrender to the inner voice guidance. My mind oftentimes doesn’t quite trust that what the inner voice is saying is actually what in my best and highest good and likes to take the reigns and try to control situations. It’s been a struggle to fully surrender into trusting.
[After Trust Yourself] It does feel different! I oftentimes feel like there’s what feels like a big dam blocking the flow of things (creativity, life direction, etc..). When my mind thinks of this, it feels like an impossible feat to break down the dam and allow the flow back in. Like it would be this forceful, tumultuous, destructive upheaval to breakdown & reconstruct this sam to its natural flow.
But during the trust yourself session, through Lorna’s guidance, my inner voice lovingly showed me that it doesn’t need to be an upheaval. Instead, it can be soft and slow, removing one brick from the dam at a time to naturally allow the flow to re-engage. This feels so much more manageable and gentle for my mind, like it’s willing to get on board with this way of letting flow in. And magically, since Trust Yourself, aligned opportunities for allowing more creativity and follow through with inner voice guidance have been trickling in. It feels like such a gift!
I loved your [analogy] of the shaken up coke bottles re: bubbles & emotions. Makes so much sense and it feels so good to have that titrated release. I think this analogy helped me realize that release doesn’t have to be some explosive thing, it can be softer and more controlled.
Lorna is an expert at holding compassionate space & asking the right questions that immerse you deeper into yourself. Her naturally intuitive nature makes you and your soul feel deeply held and seen. You’ll be drawn in by her presence and will be wanting to work with her on repeat since she has a way of reminding you what your essence sounds like.
More, please!”
—Meg
“[My favorite part was] the group setting and everyone being able to share their experiences with no judgement.
This event was awesome and you should definitely run it more often!”
—Jamie
“Only good came out of being alone with my thoughts during the meditation, so I’ll feel more comfortable trying it more often.
[My favorite part was] the feeling of connection to the other participants and the feeling of safety in the experience.
Don’t be afraid to just try it, you’ll feel safe, you don’t have to share anything you don’t want to.
Everyone was really nice and friendly, I felt a part of something magical, and I would go to another one.”
—Nichole
“[Trust Yourself] helped me be able to let go and be fully present in my body.
[My favorite part was] feeling the calm and at peace and feeling the tension in my body wash away.
Do it! I loved walking away feeling so much more present and peaceful.“
