OUR SECOND LIVE JOURNEY • ENROLMENT OPEN NOW
Living free
Coming Home to the Heart
Our second live journey is underway. Doors are still open.
Are you ready for something more?
Not another technique. Not another version of yourself to become.
A remembering. A coming home to the wisdom of your own heart.
"It has physically changed my relationship with my sibling. I am a different person with them now. I do not have as much resentment or anger. It is not based on fear. There is much more love."
Laura
"I am living much more in the present and not worrying as much about things in the past or future that I have no control over. I definitely have a more positive outlook on everything since I started the course."
Anna
What if nothing is missing?
So many of us spend years trying to fix ourselves.
Overthinking. Searching. Pushing for clarity, peace or purpose. Believing we are broken, unworthy, not enough. That our past shaped us permanently, or that life will begin once our circumstances change.
But what if the freedom you are looking for is not something you have to achieve?
What if there is a deeper wisdom within you that you can begin to hear again?
Living Free is an invitation to explore a simple yet profound understanding of how we experience life, and to rediscover the peace, clarity and wellbeing already inside you.
No affirmations to repeat. No thoughts to monitor. No method to master.
Just a space to see something that changes everything.
This is different because it is not another method
Most approaches divide life into separate problems. Anxiety here. Confidence there. Relationships over there. Each needs a different solution.
Living Free is grounded in one understanding: the Three Principles of Mind, Consciousness and Thought.
When you begin to see how your experience is created from moment to moment, you do not have to believe or follow every thought that passes through your mind.
You stop fighting yourself. You start hearing your own wisdom again.
That is why this one understanding can touch every area of life.
What previous members say
“It has felt like somebody holding my hand through life. I’ve come out of the 12 weeks with a very different perception.”
— Laura
“I found Max very easy to relate to. Many of the examples and situations he spoke about connected with me and gave me a better understanding.”
— Trish
“Melly has a really good way of making the principle concepts accessible and understandable. The analogies worked really well for me.”
— Viv
“I am able to feel and think more slowly and more easily dismiss things that are not worth worrying about.”
— Helen
“The gentle and honest teachings from Melly and Max, and the subsequent conversations with the group, were what I really enjoyed.”
— Anna
“I've been feeling more relaxed and strong, observing my thoughts and sometimes even being able to say 'stop' to them or switch to another one.”
— Pivi
"A shift has definitely happened. I pause more now rather than rushing, and really think about what I am about to say. I have introduced a breath before replying or sorting out a situation, and I am much more aware of my options."
— Trish
Why a mother-and-son team changes the conversation
Living Free is hosted by Melly, 56, and Max, 21.
Same understanding. Two generations. Two very different stages of life.
Melly brings decades of lived experience as a mother, wife, founder, teacher and coach. This understanding transformed her own patterns of overthinking, self-sabotage, broken relationships and lack of confidence.
Max brings the honesty of a young man who faced serious anxiety and depression from a young age and found a different way of relating to his mind.
You may hear something from Melly that speaks to years of responsibility, relationships or losing yourself in caring for others. Then hear Max express the same truth in a way that reaches another part of you, your child, your partner or your family.
Different ages. Different perspectives. The same human truth.
Their relationship is also a living example of what can happen within a family when blame softens, listening deepens and people stop trying to fix one another.
That is rare in coaching. That is the heart of Living Free.
Meet your hosts
Melly Mayes
Max Mayes
Max is 21 and trained as a Three Principles group coach. His perspective is grounded not only in study but in his own lived transformation. After facing serious challenges with anxiety, depression, and his mental wellbeing from a young age, he discovered the Principles and saw something that changed everything: he was not broken, he did not need to be at war with his mind, and peace was not somewhere he had to chase.
He brings honesty, compassion, and a relatable voice to conversations about anxiety, overthinking, identity, and the challenges we all face as human beings. Because he has been there, his guidance does not come from theory. It comes from knowing what it feels like to struggle, and what becomes possible when you see your experience differently.
Max is proof that this understanding can reach any age. Whether you are young and wrestling with pressure, identity, or the noise of modern life, or you are listening for your child, your partner, or your family, his voice meets you where you are.
Stories from the first journey
Anxiety began to lose its power
One participant had carried the emotional weight of the same situation for almost ten years. As her understanding deepened, she became calmer and stopped giving every fearful thought her attention. Her circumstances did not need to change first; her experience began changing from within.
Grief softened into love and presence
One member carrying deep grief after her father’s death began remembering the whole of his life, rather than focusing only on his final moments. Her sleep improved, she worried less about what she could not control and became more present in her relationships.
Relationships moved towards connection
As resentment, fear and old thinking loosened their grip, a family relationship that had felt broken began to transform.
“It’s physically changed my relationship with my sibling. I am a different person with them now. I don’t have as much resentment or anger. It’s not based on fear as much. There’s far more love.”
— Laura
People began responding differently
Members noticed frustrated thinking before reacting, listened more deeply and found more space between a thought and their response. Some habits also began falling away naturally—not through shame or willpower, but because the need for them diminished.
These individual stories are not promises that everyone will experience the same outcome. They show what may become possible when we understand the inside-out nature of our experience.
What you may begin to notice
A quieter mind and less overthinking
More calm, clarity and emotional resilience
Greater trust in your own wisdom
Improved relationships and deeper connection
Less identification with stress, anxiety and self-doubt
More confidence, energy and engagement with life
Freedom from stories and patterns that once felt permanent
More presence, gratitude and enjoyment of ordinary life
Your journey begins the moment you join
12 foundational Journey 1 sessions—available immediately
Start exploring the original Living Free teachings as soon as you enrol. Real questions, real insights, real lived experience.
12 fresh Journey 2 live calls
Join Melly, Max and the new group for 12 entirely new live coaching conversations. Every group brings different questions and fresh insights, so Journey 2 is not a repeat of Journey 1.
There is no catching up to do
You do not need to finish Journey 1 before joining live. Listen at your own pace and come exactly as you are. This understanding deepens through living and listening, not through keeping up with a curriculum.
If you join after the live journey has begun, you will receive the Journey 2 replays already available and can attend all remaining calls.
Why 12 weeks?
This understanding is simple, but there is no end to its depth. You may hear the same idea several times and then suddenly see it with entirely new meaning.
The 12-week format gives you time to live your life, encounter real situations and return to the conversation with what you are noticing. Someone else’s question or story may spark precisely the insight you need to hear.
What’s included
- Immediate access to the complete 12-session Journey 1 library
- 12 new weekly live group-coaching sessions on Zoom
- Guidance from both Melly and Max
- Conversations grounded in the Three Principles
- A safe, supportive and non-judgemental group
- Video streaming for Journey 1 and every Journey 2 replay
- Downloadable audio versions for personal use
- Private Living Free community access and support
- A recordings-only pathway if you prefer not to join live
Spaces are intentionally limited to protect the warmth, trust and intimacy of the group.
Living Free may be for you if…
- You are exhausted by overthinking and trying to work everything out
- You feel anxious, overwhelmed, emotionally reactive or stuck
- You have spent years caring for others and lost touch with yourself
- You want better relationships without needing everyone else to change first
- You are navigating grief, change, identity or a new stage of life
- You have done personal-development work but sense there is something deeper
- You want to feel more peaceful, free, alive and guided from within
Whether you are completely new to the Three Principles or returning to this understanding, you are warmly welcome. There is nothing to study and no special language to master. Come exactly as you are.

Your invitation
You do not need to wait until life becomes easier, other people change or your mind finally goes quiet.
Peace is not at the end of a perfect life. It becomes visible when you understand where your experience is coming from—and remember the wisdom that has been within you all along.
You are not broken. You are not behind. Nothing essential is missing.
If you are ready to stop fighting yourself and begin living with more freedom, clarity and connection, we would love to welcome you.
