Testimonials

" My nephew was very depressed but said that reading his profile has made him feel less isolated as if someone really knew him."
Pauline Matthews, Writer.

" It was such a relief to discover that some aspects of my character that I had always looked upon as weaknesses could be turned into positive attributes. It has been quite an eye-opener at last I understand why my husband behaves as he does!"
Judith Edgoose, Tourist Guide.

" It has given me great clarity about why I do things the way I do and has been very beneficial in getting the best out of the children."
Sue Eastwood, Headteacher.

" The Mercury Model has given our creative team an understanding of what we need from each other and an insight into how we work."
Philip Nicholson, Managing Director 2Mi.

" The Mercury Model identifies HOW people learn rather than WHAT they should learn. An understanding of different learning styles can enhance the relationship between teacher and student, particularly in a one to one tutorial regime."
" Helyn and Chris present this ancient astral learning in a 21st century language. It is credible, practicable and offers significant potential in the fields of learning and educating."
Angela Monkman Brushett, Education Consultant and school inspector.

" I found your workshop was extremely stimulating and effective, with your role plays being a brilliant way of communicating with all of us. For me personally, I believe you discovered more about me in one weekend than anyone has ever known. You have given me a means of understanding that the way I think and function has a rational explanation. I shared the Mercury Model ideas with my family. I have thought a lot about your model's interpretation of our interactions. It was, of course, extremely accurate and it has been interesting to see how our communication processes affect our behaviour."
Janet Thomas, Veterinary surgeon.

" Challenged my assumptions as a trainer about groups. Has made me think hard about what is expected by course members and about injecting variety into the activities and learning process. Great to see Helyn consciously enacting the styles as well as participants displaying their own styles unconsciously. A thoroughly stimulating and entertaining day."
Don Borland, Counsellor and group skills trainer.

" Having attended one of your early Mercury courses it opened my eyes and made me realise how many different learning styles there are and how pertinent the question often heard, But doesn't everyone think like me? I have now used my learning from the course to develop better teams in the workplace, in particular where there has been a need for a wide range of skills; from the front of house to the steady backroom boy" .
David Thornley MBA ACMA. Independent Management Consultant and NLP practitioner.

" Knowing the details of each person's style can be of enormous value when working on a one-to-one level. With the Mercury Model I can know in advance about their learning style, even before I meet them and can prepare accordingly. It would be especially useful for a teacher to determine the common ground they share with a student whose progress they're less than happy with."
Zohar Hartley, Alexander Technique teacher and artist.

" I enjoyed the workshop immensly and found the application of the Mercury Model in our daily business extremely helpful. Knowing the Mercury style of the people who work for us allows me to understand their styles, approaches, strengths and limitations. It simply helps to put the right skills in the right areas. I only wish I could do the same with the customers!"
Iain Scott, Marketing Manager Metz Cafe Bar Chain.

" Astro Innovation's Mercury Model Workshop was an enjoyable day spent learning about learning in the company of two delightful facilitators, Helyn and Chris. At the end of the day I feel that I came away with something of great value to me, namely a learning style profile that clarified and added to the way I think and learn. The measure of Astrology is surely in its application to the way we lead our lives and once in a while something comes along that demonstrates that in a very positive way that astrology has a valuable contribution to give to individuals and society" .
Jeremy Cooper, Astrologer.

" The Mercury workshop helped me understand myself and others in a fundamental way. The emphasis on honouring people's individuality and the encouragement to understand and cater for our own and others' learning needs have been profoundly helpful for me. As a route to self knowledge I recommend both the depth of the content and the presenters' skillful and playful approach."
Isabel Willshaw, Brainpool.
