More information

Feeling overwhelmed and at a crossroads, I turned to working with Sarena following a friend’s recommendation.  Knowing nothing about mantra, I didn’t know what to expect!  Very quickly I was clearer and able to make decisions that had been beyond me before.  Thank you!

I went with a friend and for a friend – not expecting to get much out of this myself.  How wrong can you be?!!  Meditation has been a huge help with my health challenges and the positive psychology tools were important through unexpected challenges.  Taught me to keep an open mind!

With a busy job and two teenagers, this is my life saver!  You’re voice is very calm and reassuring Sarena, and I always feel better after practising.  Really useful to have the different length tracks too – highly recommend this CD to everyone, beginner and experienced alike!

I’ve been on chant workshops before through my yoga training; Sarena’s have been the best I’ve ever attended.  She holds a clear, safe space, is compassionate, and we benefit from her own extensive study practice as the energy is so strong.

Sarena Mason is a pioneer of the wellbeing field with decades of experience and well developed skills.  I love the way she weaves Positive Psychology, Mindfulness and Music into her teaching and therapeutic work.

Sarena has a wealth of experience in the realms of speaking through to singing; from contemplative to the theatrical use of the voice.  She is a compassionate soul – a sheer joy to work with!

How Wonderful your new CD “Sound and Silence” is Sarena.  I could immediately feel the Heart connection and prayerfulness in the beauty and depth of the very clever blend of All YOUR voices. This is so lovely to listen to , so precise in pitch and harmony and very clear diction which is invaluable to everyone wanting to adopt and maintain a regular practice of Chanting .  Truly, I would recommend Everyone to purchase this Precious CD , it is” Up There ” with the World’s Greatest Sound Healers . Thank you so much xx

Sarena has that rare combination of authenticity, compassion and commitment in both her study and practice of cross-cultural music, sound, and voice therapies. She is an excellent coach and guide to the wide-ranging power of music, sound and chant to inspire, educate and heal. It has been my pleasure to work together.

Sarena is a Weleda Wellbeing Advisor  – guiding and supporting you to choose sustainable and organic health and beauty products that care for you – and our planet.  Book your complementary one to one consultation HERE.   Browse the online Webshop HERE.
