Testimonials
Bespoke SOS Retreat
This was an emergency Retreat following a challenging few days for this young mum. We made contact in the morning and she booked in that afternoon and arrived early that evening for a 2 night Bespoke SOS Retreat.
Q: What brought you to our retreat?
A: I went through an extremely difficult time, landing in a very dark place. I needed to see Mandeja a.s.a.p. I was on the edge.
Q: Tell us about your retreat experience?
A: From the moment I arrived, I had the most beautiful, relaxing experience; My stay, the healthy food, beautiful juices, adrenal cocktails. If I could leave a million star review I would. I feel I am leaving a NEW WOMAN in 2 nights!!!
Q: What did you love most about your Retreat?
A: How beautiful and relaxing it was. Absolutely everything was perfect. Buddy was divine too. He laid next to me while I stretched my neck and back in the lounge. He snuggled in. I loved it. I want a pug now.
Q: What could improve your retreat experience?
A: I cannot fault anything. Its everything I didn't even know I wanted, needed and had been craving. I'm leaving a new woman, with a plan on getting my life back on track again and be the best mum to my girls.
Q: Did the retreat meet your expectations?
A: 100%
Q: Would you come again?
A: Yes please!!
Q: Would you recommend us to others? Why?
A: Yes, of course, because they would 100% love it and come away completely renewed.
Q: Anything else you wish to share?
A: I cannot wait to come again and I shall bring my daughters with me next time. Thank you so much for everything. It was very emotional going home and dropping the girls to school the next day after a very difficult week the week before my retreat. It went so well. I was proud of myself. Pick was excellent, with very happy girls to see me. I've bought my painting stuff and going to paint my lounge for a fresh start. I've started the healthy breakfast and juices. It's been yummy! Again, thank you for everything. I've got my life back!
Accommodation ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
Like a 5 star hotel. I just wanted to move in.
Food ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
Just what I needed
Juices ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
Game changing. No one has ever shown me how to make healthy juices before. I loved them so much I had more than four every day. I couldn't get enough. So much so I ordered the Nama J2 Juicer and bought fruit as soon as I was going home, to make juices for my girls.
Hands On Transformational Therapy ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
I have had a session once before, but this truly put me back together again. I felt so light afterwards. I was smiling!
Workshop ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
Actually I had a healing meditation while in the infrared sauna blanket. I've never experienced anything like it in my life!
Integration day ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
We had a walk around the fields near Mandeja's home on my last night. I had been so poorly a few days before, it was my first walk in a long time and I felt amazing.

The beautiful young lady chose to write a poem, for her testimonial. What an honour!
Mandeja Heavenly Retreats
In Mandeja's warm embrace,
where the mountains kiss the sky,
I found a haven,
a tranquil place
where my soul could be free and fly.
Through whispering tree’s and sunlit streams,
I roam,
In this sanctuary,
I’ve called my home.
Every sunrise a promise,
every breeze a gentle call,
To let go of my burdens,
to release them all.
Here,
I’m free as the wind that dances through the trees,
A life unshackled,
moving with the ease.
The sky above,
a canvas painted in endless hues,
Reflects the depth of my spirit,
colours rich,
bright and true.
I feel the power surge within,
a beacon shining bright,
Guiding me through life's storms,
a never-dimming light.
In the quiet of the forest,
I hear my heart's own song,
A melody of strength and hope,
a rhythm proud and strong.
I've found the power
and control within my own embrace,
To face each challenge boldly,
with dignity and grace.
At Mandeja Heavenly Retreats,
my spirit finds its wings,
Amidst the tranquil beauty,
my heart soars and sings.
Through every step I take,
through every breath I draw,
I am renewed,
empowered,
in awe of nature's law.
So here I stand, in four days,
unafraid,
with the strength of the earth,
Transformed by these moments,
each one a rebirth.
In the heart of Mandeja,
I’ve found the key,
To live life fully,
to be truly free
With love from Emily x

From the young man.
Q: What brought you to our retreat?
A: I was on the edge of burnout due to a very busy life and professional life. I was on a constant 'coping cycle'. I needed to mentally, physically and digitately detox. I hoped that being 'switched off' from the outside world and slowing down, focusing on and exploring my past, present and future self, would help me re-balance and un-wind. WOW!! It definitely DID!!!!
Q: Tell us about your retreat experience?
A: It was a good shock at first, ad difficult at first, to let go of various vices that I had in life to cope with life. BUT being nutritiously renewed very quickly (Detox kicking it!) My body conquered the vices much quicker than I ever thought possible. Having time away from anything electronical helped me to find and enjoy the simple things in life. Both by myself and with my Fiancé. Opening up mentally gave me a great path to visit back down. To understand further why I was feeling the way I did 'Pre-Mandeja'. It has also armed me with advice and tools to continue benefitting from in the future. Writing everything down in the journal Mandeja gave me. The food helped detox not only my body, but my mind and has changed the way I now look at food. The accommodation was similar to any 5 star hotel I have visited, with exclusive use of the outside hot tub and the amazing garden cabin. I have left the retreat re-birthed and feeling fresh, ready to enter the outside world with renewed confidence, energy and tools for the future.
Q: What did you love most about your Retreat?
A: So many things. I've made a list
1. Watching myself and my Fiancé go to some (necessary) dark places/memories and come out of the other side quite literally different people. Incredible!
2. Viewing the world completely differently after only 4 nights!
3. Appreciating the little things in life which help us and are abundant.
4. Enjoying time spent alone to recharge, and understand what I find relaxation in outside of modern technologies.
5. Learning/re-learning how to spend, proper quality time with my Fiancé with NO Technology involved. It's been a breath of fresh air.
6. The ceremonies, workshops, meditations and the integration day at Men-an-tol and watergate bay, all powerful and profound in their own right and provided me with new (and some never before seen) views on the world.
7. Buddy - is just the best!!!
Q: What had the greatest impact on you?
A: The workshops, coaching, ceremonies, Hands On Transformational Therapy Healing and the Integration day I will never forget. Detoxing to the MAX (physically with healthy food and nutritious juices, digitally - no phone for 5 days, and Emotionally - really deep dived fully.)
Q: What could improve your retreat experience?
A: Please can we stay longer.
Q: Did the retreat meet your expectations?
A: No. It completely exceeded them! I didn't quite know what to expect, but this experience over-rided all previous preconceptions. If anyone is researching, looking at or even thinking about doing a retreat, or what a retreat is - Then THIS IS THE RETREAT FOR YOU! Go for it!!!!
Q: Would you come again?
A: Yes please!
Q: Would you recommend us to others? Why?
A: Yes. Absolutely! It was an unforgettable experience and a great journey and transformation in just 4 nights
Q: Anything else you wish to share?
A: Just another MASSIVE thank you to Mandeja for changing our lives!!
Q: Would you kindly leave a testimonial or review?
A: Yes! I am happy for all I have written to be my testimonial and to be displayed in the best way possible to the public. So they can see the great value Mandeja offers and What is available to help themselves transform.

Enter a profound state, reach parts of you that need to be healed
Mandeja is an incredible spiritual healer and teacher.
I was privileged to be able to work with her over three sessions in which she helped me to connect to my soul gifts, raise my vibration and step into my personal power.
She works with beautiful empathy and a deep connection which enables you to enter a profound state and reach parts of you that need to be brought to the surface and healed.
Since working with Mandeja, I have found my voice as an intuitive writer and poet and have created a deeply fulfilling new life for myself.
I am blessed to have had Mandeja alongside me in my healing journey towards wholeness.”

I feel absolutely fabulous- strong, clear headed…calm and free ❤️
“Hi Mandejá,
I thought I would touch base and let you know how I’m doing after our session last week. I feel absolutely fabulous- strong, clear headed, more energy, calm and free. My right knee has given out a few times but I’m accepting it with love and laying my hands on it to heal.
I am so grateful to have met you and hope to see you again sometime next year for another session to check in with how I’m doing. Sending lots of love and light 💖💖💖”

HOTT3 Review
“I really enjoyed my session with Mandeja on Sunday. Mandeja made me really welcome and spent a lot of time with me. We worked through a lot and it helped. I had hands on healing too which was amazing. I felt different (better) after the session and continue to feel calmer and less stressed since. I would like to come again in the future and am thinking about a retreat. Thank you Mandeja.“
P from Exeter ‘HOTT3’ session
******************************
It is always a joy to receive reviews and feedback and this was a beautiful HOTT3 session with a releasing fire ceremony and a Hands On Transformational Therapy session afterwards. This allowed this young man to feel so much clearer of the emotional baggage he had been carrying.

HOTT 1 Review - Young person
Words are not enough to describe the experience I had with Mandeja.
I felt very clean after my session as if my energy was my own and I wasn't sharing it with anyone else.
I notice that my problems have become less significant to me and I have been much less stressed and more willing to be myself since my session.
I had the most amazing experience with Mandeja who is one of the loveliest people I have ever met".
DH (Teen from Devon) HOTT 1 2023
******************
As a fully qualified teacher BEd (HONS) 1998 and ex deputy headteacher, I love working with children and young people.
There is something truly beautiful about a young person who comes into my treatment room, struggling to cope with life at school. She hadn’t felt heard or understood by others, teachers or peers, except her mum and was finding it difficult to explain how she had been feeling for years.
As soon as I connected with her soul I knew exactly what had been happening to her as an empath with little knowledge of how to control her skills.
One of the most rewarding sessions as she left completely calm, smiling, grown an inch or two and bounded out so happy in herself. As she put it herself, ‘felt very clean’ after her session.
HOTT1 sessions were originally designed for young people as their attention span is often more limited, however their innerstanding and openness leads to the most incredibly enlightening sessions. Less is always more and often deeper healing results in these cases.
I welcome all young people from at least 5 years old onwards, but exceptions have been made in the past depending on the circumstances.
If your child or young person is struggling to feel right in the world, can’t sleep, have nightmares, are not themselves after a traumatic event or surgery, then my door is open (with parental supervision as required)
Sometimes there are deeper situations or events that your child or young people need help to clear then please ask for a Bespoke Retreat at Mandejá’s from a few hours, full day, weekend and 5 day retreats full board with healthy food and fresh juices with their designated parent, either sharing a room Blush, or Mulberry, or the Suite of rooms Mulberry and Teal with sharing Jack and Jill bathroom, depending on their age.
Please book a HOTT1 =£75 or a Bespoke Retreat at Mandejá’s and explain their age and details of what they are experiencing or presenting with and we will book them in.
I look forward to working with your precious souls.
