"I was lucky enough to meet Tanette at a very difficult period in my life – a crossroads if you will. I was struggling to live in the present and ruminating too much about past mistakes and endeavours.

I was also struggling to form a clear vision of what I wanted my future to look like.
My overall wellbeing was in disrepair.

Within a few minutes of talking to Tanette I knew I had landed in the right place.
Her communication style immediately set me at ease.
Tanette is extremely well researched, consequently has a wealth of knowledge, life experience and empathy to make her an outstanding resource and wellbeing practitioner for anyone who is looking for some guidance in their life.

By the end of my first session Tanette had clearly articulated a pathway back to wellbeing and the steps required to get there. Over the several sessions that followed she presented a host of ideas, tools, and pragmatic solutions to the issues I was looking to resolve.

Tanette seamlessly helped me change my perspective on a number of key things in my life and put me back in the drivers seat. Learning how to take control again was one of the most valuable lessons from these sessions.

Spending time with Tanette was profoundly rewarding for me. I was able to complete a ”factory reset” and have gone on to achieve a number of personal goals I momentarily lost sight of.

I would highly recommended Tanette to anyone who is out of sorts or at odds with themselves, but also anyone who is looking to transform thinking patterns, or elevate themselves into a different space.

Don’t hesitate - just book some time with her."

"I started working with Tanette at The Tiny Temple 5 years ago after a recommendation from a friend. I had just experienced some big grief events that triggered a bit of a personal breakdown, which led to an awareness of not only past unhealed grief/trauma, but also that I had strayed so far from who I was meant to be.

I dove into my first 6 week session, (we’ve done about 5 of these over the 5 years) and the work has been invaluable! Tanette has an amazing ability to sit and observe, to listen and to hold space, and to know what you need. And gives you the odd poke when she knows you are ready to face yourself!

I have learnt a tremendous amount from Tanette and healed my past traumas around losing babies and my grief around not having had my own. I’ve learnt about meditation and by using the mandala, seeing how we get pulled away from our centre, and about the abundance of life force within us, when we are in balance (I used to think darkness and drama was my inspiration!) I’ve learnt about the power of particular words and their frequencies, and how such simple changes of behaviours and actions can have the biggest impact on our lives. We reignited the creative fire inside of me and so many of my lessons are all poured into my artworks that came out of this period. To be honest, if I try to recall who I was prior to this work, I can hardly remember, as now I am so strong in myself, grounded and clear, I know about boundaries and am much better at them, I am productive, calm and happy…and excited about my future. Some grief never fully heals, but now I know how to allow those feelings to flow through me if they arise, and I no longer get pulled under nor wallow in a pity party. I am owning my life and all the steps, good or bad, that got me to who I am today!
I truly cannot recommend Tanette enough... best to be brave and go deep, life on the other side of healing is a beautiful thing.

"Tanette is wonderful! A genuinely caring person, with some incredible skills in picking apart issues and helping find pragmatic ways forward. She is a great listener and I trust her entirely. I’ve already recommended her to lots of people and would highly rate her skills and intuition. Tanette is highly qualified to help and has great interpersonal connection. 10/10 from me. After a few sessions I made some very positive life changes"

"I would give Tanette the highest rating. I reached out to Tanette when I was at my lowest. She guided me to reconnect with myself and self-worth in a way that was compassionate, loving and showed deep understanding of what I needed individually. I have never worked with a practitioner of this calibre, who can intuitively connect with a person and what they need at that time. I am deeply grateful to Tanette for her wisdom and empathy. Tanette cares. Simple."

"I couldn’t get on top of stress from work. I felt trapped in a hole, and I was definitely digging deeper binging on food. I was overweight, getting larger and starting to get health issues from going up and down with food. I was in constant panic about being so out of control in my mind and body.

Tanette is really strong in her self-kindness. She taught me it is a strength anyone can grow and when you are kind to self you make loving decisions for your life. She helped me remember a healthier self-view and choose practical ways of looking after myself that worked best for me.

I have been able to break free from the biochemical ups and downs of eating too much sugar and markedly increased the healthy live foods I put into my body, mainly because I feel more kind towards self. Having a level blood sugar has put me in a much better place mood-wise.

It has been invaluable having Tanette so strongly alongside while I was going through intense self-doubt trying to adopt these new ways. I feel I have control of things again.

Being kinder to self has made me naturally feel and act kinder to myself and others. I am much more social and I can’t tell you how grateful I am to have had access to Tanette when I was feeling so trapped and lost. Thank you Tanette!! Feel like I have been able to come home xx"

"Tanette has a positive, spiritual and educated approach to her coaching. I have spent many hours with Tanette being guided for my personal growth and healing. I found myself stuck in a cycle of grief and many decades of negative beliefs, Tanette lifted the layers and gave me the tools and wisdom to make changes which have been life changing. Life coaching and goal setting with Tanette propelled me to start a new business. What has been the most valuable is to be able to go back to Tanette at the Tiny Temple to keep being supported and honest with old patterns and new challenges that arise in our journey of life. Very Grateful."

"I would recommend Tanettes course to anyone. She is a talented lady who has a wonderful ability to help bring out what you want and help you set goals and heal things that have been holding you back from achieving all you can be and more. I left each session truly connected and clear about achieving what I needed to do. I still use all the skills she gave me to work with. I often read over my journal I made with her to make sure I am still on track. I know anyone that works with Tanette will feel truly blessed to have chosen to do so.

One of the things that is great about Tanette is that she is both supportive, while still holding you accountable for your own life situations. Sessions with Tanette have always left me in a positive headspace and feeling empowered in understanding what I can do for myself."

"I have had regular counselling sessions with Tanette from the Tiny Temple Of Well-Being. I was finding that in my life I could regularly be drawn back into past stories and that was affecting me being able to enjoy my present day. I don’t know about other people but by the time I reached out for counselling I was really struggling.
In our first session I felt immediate relief. With Tanette I was able to see my patterns of thinking and learned how to plan and move forward in my life with joy and excitement. I was able to see myself with kindness and forgiveness in a way that had felt impossible all the years leading up to our sessions.
I have had so many benefits from counselling. On a personal level being able to feel happy within myself has allowed me to share more joy with my family.
I can look back at events in my past with compassion and understanding.
Tanette has many techniques and ideas that I found to be life changing- allowing a deeper connection to myself, others and the planet.
My favourite part of the sessions with Tanette is she is incredibly accepting of anything I have to say. I was constantly surrounded by her unwavering kindness. It has spilled over into my own life and I can be kinder to myself and more accepting of others.
Having regular support is life changing. I really benefit from knowing that this is a continuous process where I can keep learning with support and guidance. I feel lighter, I have a lot of hope. This is a huge change from where I started."

"When I first met Tanette I felt I had lost my way. I was struggling with overwhelming emotions and grief which were affecting my work and home life. Tanette gently and carefully offered the empathetic hand I needed, sharing her wisdom to help me out of my hole.
Over the years of coaching Tanette had opened up my horizons to what can be possible if you leave the past behind and use your strengths and values to live in the present and create a positive future. Her invaluable insights helped seed the thoughts which have got me to where I am today.

I’ve have moved from a place where pain was my daily struggle - both physically and emotionally - to a place where I cope well and continue to thrive through adversity. Her teachings have helped me to help others as an employer and now a leader and well-being advocate for my industry where others have similar struggles to my own.
Coaching with Tanette has brought joy back into my life, my work, my relationships with the ones I love and help me fuel and focus on my future ambitions.
Tanette takes you on a journey of discovery in a safe and supported way, empowering and growing you at each session with a unique ability to tailor her service to the person in her space. I would recommend to anyone who has struggled with therapists or counsellors in the past to work with Tanette as she sees caring and support holistically due to her wealth of knowledge, ongoing curiosity and experience. Our journey continues.

"I began a 6 week program with Tanette as I neared the end of treatment for cancer. Chemo slowly broke me down bit by bit until I finally let go of work and striving for achievement. My diagnosis had shaken me to the core, treatment was both physically and mentally transformative. I had a deep sense of gratitude for this new perspective, but was also fearful that I would return to work and get sucked back into the rat race, with old habits surfacing - self-criticism and feelings of 'not good enough' that result in working too hard. I wanted to rebuild my life at a slower pace, with self-compassion, free from anxiety and the need to control everything. I feel incredibly lucky to have worked with Tanette to achieve this.

Tanette's style is direct and compassionate. Highly empathetic and observant, she was quickly able to identify patterns that weren't serving me. She was also able to shine a light on my greatest strengths, giving me confidence and deeper self-awareness. Tanette has numerous techniques and frameworks that helped me move forward. She is a talented meditation teacher and I was able to reconnect and deepen my practice under her guidance. Her holistic approach has left me with many actionable strategies to heal and rebuild my life, both personally and professionally. Tanette has an uncanny ability to hold space, create a sense of safety, whilst also inviting me to rise up to my full potential. I continue to be moved and inspired by the work we did together. She has had a profound impact on my life."

Thank you Tanette. You are a gift to the world."

"Tanette listens and she is kind. I got so much out of my sessions. Tanette is intuitive, spiritual, calm, courageous, intelligent, fun and compassionate. I was safely taken on an insightful journey that opened up alternative pathways for me. Tanette is gifted and I wish she lived in my hood. Thank you Tanette for supporting me on my journey and showing up in my life at a really pivotal time."

"I would like to thank Tanette for helping me realise not only my own worth but finding my happiness again. I wasn’t comfortable opening up and expressing my true feelings but as soon as I walked in I felt completely welcome and at ease and i walked out feeling ready to tackle my life the way I have always wanted to but always to scared to because of fear. I honestly can not thank her enough for making me realise what my true worth is and I can say whole heartily that as hard as it was to get through those barriers and fight the terrible hard times I’ve come through and feel the best I’ve ever felt. If you have any doubts still give it a go because I did and I couldn’t be more happier and thankful. . My whole world has changed dramatically but she showed me it for the better and I’ll never ever forget that. 
She is an absolute blessing and I feel extremely great full to have met her. "

"Visiting Tanette in her Tiny Temple of Wellbeing has been one of the great things I’ve experienced since my move to Wanaka....

"Tanette is an amazing healer, teacher, and intuitive worker. Her approach is direct yet empathetic, spiritual, supportive and power enhancing.Client

________

"....She (Tanette) listened and acknowledged my feelings but wisely didn't allow me to dwell- she snapped me out of my 'woe is me' mood, by guiding me to realise I have options, I can choose to blame or I can do something about it! Her proactive approach resonated with the 'old me'. She supported me to look at what I needed to be happy personally, and take action to get these things in my life.  The turnaround was quick, the questions she used broke my pattern of thinking and made me take control of my life....... I am now feeling optimistic, am looking forward to the future and have got my enthusiasm for life back -YAY! I have lost 9kg so I feel good about myself and have started studying towards a new career, that I am excited about. Thank you for your guidance Tanette.Client

"Tanette was able to extract the essence of what I was seeking to express through my creative venture. From there we were able to find ways together to support these ideas into a reality. At times the path changed a little and there were bumps along the road which were skilfully managed and she kept me going through the challenging bits. It is an ongoing process for me, however, I now have a good springboard from which to launch and with Tanette’s help most importantly a clear vision. An added extra bought to the coaching is a wonderful perspective on life and a rich wisdom that I really enjoyed.Client

" I have completed Tanette's extraordinary powerful and empowering "Clarity Direction Inner Wellbeing" personal one to one program for women. I feel so blessed to have had this opportunity to work so closely with her. I have also joined her in her meditation night classes. Tanette gently guided me through meditation and awoken me to a few hidden blocks. After completing her 6 week course, I feel I have the skills and tools to recognise and change my unwanted thoughts, achieve clarity and so much more. Through our guided one on meditation session, I've learnt how to connect with my higher self and now know how to continue to achieve that connection. She still surprises and delights me spiritually. Thank you always Tanette for your guidance and truth.Client

"I went to see Tanette for many reasons.... which really took me to a level of knowing I that needed to do some more inner soul searching & healing. I wanted to take a new path of future happiness and strength, become unstuck form many patterns that I have been stuck with since childhood .... It was time to do the work and be free of my old thoughts. I embarked upon a 6 week course. This was a mixture of therapy, some massage, meditation and some tarot cards - it was my choice as to how the session would run and what was needed at that time. It became clear that after 6 weeks I was really making huge leaps in my life and general well being. My thoughts and patterns that not only didn't serve me - they held me back - I was learning with the guidance of Tanette to just let go. I took another 6 weeks of guidance - some meditation and many hours filled with words of wisdom. I believe that I am forever changed, happier, more fulfilled and grounded than I have ever been. This wholesome approach filled with love and care was just what I needed and I can recommend Tanette at her Tiny Temple for Well being to anyone who wishes to become unstuck and to change.Client

 Women`s Circle Reviews


" The most welcoming space in a beautiful place. Having had the amazing and awakening opportunity to sit through Tanette's meditation circle retreat was such a blessing. I was guided through layers of myself I didn't know existed. Getting right to the core and connecting back to the roots of us all. Tanette is an enlightening and uplighting beam of light who shares the gift of the journey to finding our centre. THANK YOU. "  Circle Guest

"An important work for women & sisterhood. A place and space for nourishment and clarity with hearts open and love shared."  Circle Guest 

______

"I  came to this course completely exhausted, my mind was constantly on the go, negative thinking had become an ingrained habit and the worry of "what if" scenarios that ran through my mind everyday was taking it's toll.  Meditation and mindfulness had been something I explored on my own previously, but unsuccessfully.  So when I found out that Tanette was running a 6 week course I didn't hesitate to sign up.  I really didn't know what to expect and was perhaps a little intimidated by the thought of it all (again worrying!), but as soon as I arrived to The Tiny Temple For Well-being I felt only warmth and acceptance.  That first night Tanette guided our circle of women through 2 types of meditations, I found her words struck a cord with me and the tone of her voice very soothing and encouraging. I can honestly say there were moments when I felt totally at peace with myself and completely "in the present moment".  It was if a light had been switched on, an awakening, within a week I began to look and pay attention to how I reacted to everyday situations. I felt calmer, my head seemed clearer and I wasn't so stressed out.  I have even started to meditate at home by myself.  The course has been an amazing experience and I can honestly say a highlight of my week, I really enjoy meditating in a group and sharing our experiences.  I am only just starting my journey into meditation/mindfulness and am excited to see where it/Tanette will take me.  I've already signed up for the next course and I would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone who has ever considered doing anything like this. Tanette is a wonderful teacher, with a wealth of knowledge that she genuinely enjoys sharing with others.Circle Guest 

______

"I have recently moved to Wanaka from Southland, where I left a circle of women who regularly gathered to share parts of ourselves in a circle setting.  I was very grateful to find a group of women here who find nourishment through the same practice.  It makes Wanaka feel more like home.Each meditative experience strengthens my spiritual understanding of the practice.  Tanette provided yet another hue, another dimension, to my cache of experiences.  When she shared her understanding of the mandala, my own understanding increased tenfold. Belonging to a meditation group supports my personal meditation practices and beliefs immensely.  We are all one.  We do not exist in isolation.  Meditation circles are a physical reminder of this fact.  Regular interaction with like-minded beings and guidance by a skilled teacher help me navigate my emotional cargo ship through the mini dramas of my life and the lives of the people I love.  There's huge benefits in that." Circle Guest
