A note from the Practitioner
MARS MARDON
Many of us learn to armour up against the world. We build protective layers and separate parts of us that have been hurt, disappointed or misunderstood. Over time, those aspects can become so familiar that we lose sight of who we are beneath them. Who would we be if we didn't use so much energy compensating for our tension and pains?
I believe there is something remarkable within us: an innate intelligence of body, mind, soul, and a capacity for change far greater than we often realise. My work is to help you reconnect with that potential within yourself.
Through my training, lived experience and deep respect for the complexity of the human experience, I bring an intuitive, compassionate and grounded approach to our work together. I offer more than a safe space. I offer a space held with intention, reverence and genuine care, where you can be met as you are, explore the patterns and beliefs that may be holding you back, and begin to recognise possibilities you may not yet see for yourself.
It is my personal belief that life, death and rebirth are not simply events, but possibilities available to us in every moment. I see this reflected beautifully in the pōhutukawa tree, deeply connected in Māori philosophy. The pōhutukawa represents the bridge between worlds, between life and death, she shows her resilience by often clinging to coastal cliffs and continuing to bloom. Come what may, alongside our grievances is the opportunity to crack open a new part of ourselves. A way to integrate both old and new, enabling us to, like the pōhutukawa, explore ourselves more fully and be held as we surrender to the process.
Our capacity for renewal holds no bounds. Across generations, humanity has honoured the reverence of existence through ceremony, gratitude and healing practices. I believe that whenever we bring sacredness to a moment, something within us can be renewed. There is so much within us, and within our connections to the worlds around us, yet to be explored.
Your journey will always remain yours. Using the practices and techniques I have developed through training and experience, I support you to explore your resistance, reconnect with your own wisdom and move towards what feels possible for you. My joy is to see you attain the path toward your version of greatness and success. Be all you can be and allow your soul to sing its fullest song in this lifetime. That said, please know you are always at choice. There is no pressure to move faster than you are ready to, no prescribed version of who you should become, and no judgement about where you are today or where you've been.
At the heart of One Sacred Moment is a deep reverence for each person's individual journey. I believe that how we choose to live, how we care and connect with ourselves, others, animals and the land shapes the world we create together. The energy we put in every moment, acting as the building blocks for our day today, the future to come and beyond.
You deserve the opportunity to feel alive in your own life, to move beyond simply getting through the days and explore what thriving really means.
If you feel ready to explore that possibility, it would be my honour to be part of this journey alongside you.

A shoulder flare up saw me at the Physio on 29 Dec, unable to move without jolts of pain. The physio eased it but pain was still there. I was about to arrange a Dr appointment for a scan to check why this was recurring. Instead I met with Mars to have a bodywork session. Over 3 hours we worked through flinchlock and an energy facial. The experience was OUT OF THIS WORLD! The images flashing through my mind, memories locked away and now free. I have no shoulder pain. No pain in my chest, no back pain, no shoulder pain. Absolutely amazing.

I have had a number of sessions with Mars and each one is unique, deep and has left me with long term meaningful shifts. Her combination of bodywork and connection to wairua is unique gift to this world! Not to mention the fun, joy and her infectious laughter is another added layer of healing and connection. Thank you Mars for the impact and aroha you bring to each session we have shared together
S. Carroll, Auckland NZ
I had the most amazing session with Amali earlier this week. I went in feeling exhausted from the busyness of life and walked out feeling like a new person ready to tackle anything life threw at me. I felt niggly pains in my right leg that has been bothering me for as long as I can remember completely disappear, and just felt like I floated out of there once our session was done. I will be coming back again for sure! Thankyou again, so grateful.
H. Peterson, Auckland NZ
I had the most beautiful one-on-one session with Mars today. I wasn't quite sure what to expect, but I walked away feeling a sense of peace that I honestly don't think I've ever experienced before. Mars has such a lovely, calming presence and made me feel completely comfortable and at ease. It was a really special experience and I'm so glad I went. Thank you, Mars. ❤️
F. Malik, Auckland NZ
Mars is knowledgeable and attentive, and really cares and wants to use her talent to help others. We talked through what I was looking to achieve in building resilience and understanding myself, and I left with more clarity about where I am, where I'm looking to go, and how to get there. Thanks so much Mars, looking forward to seeing you again!

What makes for a meaningful healing session?
SUPPORTING YOUR BODY'S INNATE INTELLIGENCE THROUGH PERSONALISED CARE
Every session is a collaboration between us and everything around us. My role is to create a pure, intentional space where you can feel comfortable, be yourself and receive without needing to explain everything or revisit stories you would rather keep private.
With a range of specialised techniques to draw upon, I can tailor each session to what may best support you on the day. You need only share a little about what brings you to healing; together, we establish a direction while remaining open to what else may need attention. You can simply relax and receive. Your body and being will do the rest and healing will always go to where it ought.
Your privacy and confidence matter. There is no expectation to talk, disclose or relive your experiences unless you want to. I practise with intention and energetic hygiene so whatever information you share in a session is held safely with no judgement.
Healing is not something that happens to you, nor is it about 'fixing' you, these would imply you are powerless which is far from true. It is about creating the conditions for you to reconnect with your own intelligences that have always been within. In doing so, you are able to receive more capacity within yourself, to undertake a fuller more present reality and be more at choice for what you wish to experience.
