I attended Sonya’s level 1 reiki course in Oct/ Nov 2024. I found Sonya to be an insightful teacher with an empathetic and compassionate manner. It was lovely to work with like minded individuals in a small group setting within the yurt which is a beautiful, quiet space.

I wholeheartedly recommend Mendip Reiki Healing Arts to anyone considering taking a course in reiki.

I attended Sonya's Reiki Level 1 course in autumn 2024. The first thing to mention is the gorgeous setting up in the hills of Bleadon. Driving out there felt like a mini pilgrimage ("Mini", since I live only on the other side of Weston), with Sonya's beautiful yurt being the shrine. The stunning views of hill, estuary and beyond made me feel immediately relaxed and inspired.

The yurt is situated atop a lovely garden which we were able to use throughout the multi- day course for grounding and relaxation. The yurt itself is a special place. The curation of artefacts has been carried out with care, meaning and attention to detail, making a comfortable, homely and yet intriguing environment.

I found Sonya to be a warm and welcoming person. Together with extensive knowledge, astute leadership and excellent communication skills, Sonya's ability as a teacher and guide is excellent. The course - taken over 3 days at the yurt plus a 4th virtual catch up session - was informative and well paced. We acquired knowledge, practised skills and held space for one another, and Sonya provided the flexibility to bend with our needs as both individuals and a group. I always felt supported - free to ask anything and speak in a candid manner. We were given homework to practice our burgeoning practical skills and to further direct our minds towards reiki. This was all very doable and helpful.

I was fortunate enough to take the course with 3 other beautiful souls who helped to make the whole experience a significant and life affirming one. I found everyone to be open minded and generous of spirit. I intend to take Reiki Level 2 with Sonya in June and hope that all my course mates will be there.

Thank you, Sonya. I look forward to seeing you again soon!

I recently booked a Reiki healing treatment with Sonya in her beautiful yurt. It was a truly an amazing experience. From the moment I entered the space, I felt a sense of calm and warmth. Sonya was attentive and explained the process, making me feel comfortable and safe.

During my session, I noticed a deep sense of relaxation wash over me. The gentle touch and energy work helped to release tension I didn’t even realize I was holding. I felt a flow of energy throughout my body, and at times, I experienced sensations of warmth and tingling. I almost fell asleep!

After the session, I emerged feeling lighter, more balanced, and centered. It was as if a weight had been lifted. I appreciated the holistic approach, addressing not just physical but emotional and spiritual aspects as well.

Overall, I highly recommend Reiki healing for anyone looking to relieve stress, promote relaxation, or explore energy healing. It’s a unique and soothing experience that can offer profound benefits.

Sonya and her yurt are beautifully positioned with incredible views allowing you to surround yourself in nature, to reflect and seek a moment of peace!

I have been going to sonya for a while now for my reiki which helped me massively, so I was delighted to hear she was organising training for reiki level 1. Her calming energy accompanied with a simple yet detailed course paved the way for me to grasp every concept given. She teaches it all from her garden yert which has such a beautiful view and energetic feel. She holds space in such a beautiful way that my words do not do it justice.
It was an amazing experience and I look forward to my training for reiki level 2. I would highly recommend sonya for all things reiki and crystal orientated. 10/10. Thank you

Went to Sonya at Mendip Healing Arts for a Reiki and Crystal healing session. Sonya was very welcoming and put me at ease and knew her art. She has wonderful intuition and understood my situation suggesting some helpful after treatments. The treatment itself was very beneficial and I am feeling better for it.

I have had various treatments now by Sonya including Reiki Crystal foot massage & Crystal Pendulum dowsing. Sonya creates a calm & safe environment, she is highly intuitive & her judgment free behaviour helps you to ‘open up’. The way Sonya explains things is definitely an eye opener! I enjoy my time with Sonya, always feel wiser after each session & very relaxed! Her kindness is phenomenal!

This was the first time I met Sonya .She was incredibly compassionate and thoughtful,not rushing but giving time to discuss the reasons why I come to her .
I had a reiki and crystal chakra realignment session and though the process was calm ,soothing and beautiful the impact has been ..well impactful .
I left feeling calm ,grounded and myself.2 days on ,this feeling has evolved .My nervous system has calmed ,I’m sleeping better and my appetite has returned .
I will most definitely be returning.
The environment also deserves a mention. The yurt is a beautiful space and the views are absolutely stunning which just adds to the feeling of calmness.

I’ve had reiki and chakra balance with Sonya, it was my first session in over a year and my first time with Sonya. As soon as I met her she made me feel totally relaxed. She got to know me, my past, what I needed/ wanted as to make sure I had the best experience possible. The treatment is in a beautiful yurt looking over the hills which even in very cold winter was warm, cozy and tranquil. Sonya made sure it was the perfect temperature for me. I could have stayed and talked to her for so much longer and I will definitely be returning when needed and recommending her energy. 💫
