  Dancing away from cancer with Melanie Griffiths

  Mar 12, 202641 min

  In this episode, Sarah Bolitho speaks with Melanie Griffiths about movement, holistic wellbeing, and Melanie’s experience of healing after a cancer diagnosis. They stress the importance of seeking advice from qualified medical professionals and making informed choices about treatment, whether conventional, holistic, or a combination of both. Melanie works mainly with women, helping them reconnect with their bodies through dance, movement, and intuitive guidance. After being diagnosed with cervical cancer 21 years ago while living in the US, she chose to focus on healing holistically rather than immediately pursuing the recommended surgery and radiation. Over four years, she developed her own healing approach that included meditation, journaling, dietary changes, movement, and personal reflection. When she later returned for medical testing, the results came back clear. The conversation highlights the importance of listening to the body, recognising early signs of imbalance, and reconnecting with movement. Sarah and Melanie discuss how modern lifestyles have reduced everyday activity and argue that movement should be enjoyable and intuitive, not just structured exercise focused on performance or appearance. Their key message is that building a relationship with your body and finding movement you enjoy can support better health, wellbeing, and a more active life. Melanie is a Dance Facilitator and Holistic Practitioner who helps women rise and radiate through their bodies and in their lives. After holistically healing from cancer 21 years ago, having been given six months to live, she now supports women in reclaiming their health and vitality. She offers online dance and fitness classes, 1:1 intuitive guidance sessions and wellbeing holidays designed to help women unlock their joy and life force.
