well+being

I use an integrative approach to diet
and lifestyle to improve your wellbeing

meet Marlien Wright

Hello, I’m Marlien, and I am delighted you are here. I am a well+being mentor, the author of two books, a kinesiologist in training, and trauma-informed yoga and Pilates  teacher. In addition I host the Podcast; ‘Masterpiece & Mess’ where I have conversations steeped in vulnerability and growth to inspire and promote your journey to your best well+being. I specialise in meal-planning for Blood Sugar Balancing + Gut Health and helping my clients implement Somatic Movement and lifestyle interventions for more flexibility, strength and a body you love being in. I also teach simple Meditation + Breath techniques  to cultivate a quieter mind with more clarity. 

I work with 40 + women, helping them to reset to more joy, peace and clarity. I look forward to offering you resources here to empower you to reconnect + redefine your radiant health and well+being.

Reboot with me:

  1. Energy, focus and concentration.
  2.  Sleep + waking up refreshed
  3. Sustainable and enjoyable well-being & movement rituals
  4. Transitioning to an easy to manage blood sugar balancing and gut-healthymeal plan 
  5. More clarity, calmness, connection and contentment
When you choose to work with me, you make time to pause, reflect, eat-, move, play, work and rest mindfully. You will make space for the thoughts & practices that matter—the ones that tell you what you want and need for more peace, joy & purpose.

masterpiece & mess podcast - latest episode

Welcome to ‘Masterpiece & Mess’ where we explore unedited stories and journeys of growth, greater self-expression, and better well+being.

Our stories can often be painful, and less than perfect, and yet that is where the true power of storytelling lies; in the ‘folly & bewilderment’ to quote Herman Hesse. These episodes are conversations to help us step into our vulnerability instead of being guarded or defended, hopefully creating a space for more honesty, more compassion, and a mirror in which to view ourselves as the masterpieces in the making that we all are, despite our ‘messiness’.

testimonials

I love my online one-on-one classes with Marlien. The combined yoga, Pilates and other modalities she incorporates make a huge difference to my physical and mental state. Marlien is a terrific, empathetic teacher, I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Consuelo Roland

I started doing Marlien’s class to rehabilitate my back issues it soon became one of my favourite hours of the week. I not only got stronger, I also left her class feeling serene and balanced. It really is soul food for body, mind and soul!

Francesca de Chaud

Marlien offers the opportunity to reflect and make changes to the way you view your health and wellness. Through reflective coaching sessions she has helped me uncover what health and wellness means specifically to me. She is also very knowledgeable about her subject matter and able to offer sage and practical advice when tackling diet and physical changes you would like to make. I highly recommend that you take this journey with Marlien and reap the benefits of incorporating health and wellness thinking into your routine and daily life.

Maryke Snyman

Marlien’s retreats are something everyone deserves to treat themselves to. I left feeling so nourished, relaxed and calm. My only regret was not adding an extra two nights stay after the retreat for some additional moments of relaxation to nourish myself. Thank you for such a healing weekend.

Jennifer Kanyumwa

I love my coaching sessions with Marlien, she has a calming nature and has helped me make huge strides in changing the habits and thinking to transform my health and wellbeing. We have uncovered many limiting beliefs and barriers that have held me back in the past. I am particularly grateful how Marlien helped me tackle difficult aspects of my wellbeing journey with unconditional positive regard and kindness.

Andrea Reddington

I have been to three of Marlien’s retreats.. each one of them amazing in its own way.
The meals prepared are not only incredibly nourishing and tasty –
food for both the body and the soul.

Marlien is the consummate hostess and has a very special way of making people feel at home. She is also a wealth of knowledge in her fields of expertise and departs this knowledge with both warmth and wisdom. The venues are always incredible, lending themselves to the wonderful escape into Mother Nature’s embrace.
I cannot wait to go back again!
