“Nicole Melrose offers a unique and challenging perspective on the spirituality of our body. When we are disconnected from the sacred worth of our human form, we miss the connection that God desires for us to have with ourselves, with one another, and with our creator. Nicole offers practical ways to understand and practice a spirituality that is connected to our God-created human form that churches and people of faith often ignore”.

Attending Embodied Leadership with Nicole Melrose was a truly Spirit-filled and transformative experience. After joining online last week, I felt led to drive to Irving to experience it in person, and it was worth every mile. Nicole’s genuine spirit and deep wisdom created a sacred space of reflection, healing, and oneness with God and one another. This time allowed me to breathe, to feel, and to reconnect with the fullness of who I am as a leader and a beloved child of God. I am profoundly grateful to Nicole and to the Horizon Texas Conference Care and Healing Team for this beautiful gift of renewal and embodied grace.

“Nicole’s work to connect the vagus nerve to our spiritual life is groundbreaking. Beginning here, we have the opportunity to bear witness to our pain, and sometimes uncover trauma long buried, as well as to delight in all that is giving us joy. This pathway to our spiritual life is authentically holistic in its ability to heal our souls.”

“One of the challenges of the modern church is to eliminate the divide between the body and soul, and instead embrace a spirituality that encompasses the wholeness of God's creation. Nicole Melrose's presentation on Polyvagal Theory and Trauma Informed Spirituality has dramatic implications for the church, and offers welcome insight into our sacred being.”

“Nicole has synthesized a breadth of wisdom and practice from multiple fields, helping those she works with connect more deeply to their inner life and experience moments of micro-healing.”
