🌸So excited to offer you the chance to meet Catherine Piette (holistic health coach) this coming Sunday (as part of the Rested Woman Circle)!

🌸During 1 hour, Catherine will introduce the benefits of some essential oils during the menopause transition.

🌸Which oil for which symptom? How to use them?

🌸And you’ll also get a chance to experience the use of the oils yourself through a simple massage ritual.

🌸What are you up to this Sunday? Join me, Gosia Goforrest - Yoga, Mindfulness, Sound Therapy - Yoga, Mindfulness, Sound Therapy and Catherine Piette for an afternoon of rest and well-being 💖

🌙Choosing to rest can feel like a quiet act of rebellion in a world which glorifies constant doing.

🌒Rest is the moment your body finally has space to speak — to whisper what it needs, to soften.

🌖When we rest, we open the doors to repair and recharge — to come home to ourselves.

🌕Sound bath, yoga nidra, gentle embodied movements and other self-care practices are on the menu of our half-day of REST on 23rd November.

(65 euros or ask for solidarity rate)

It’s Hypnobirthing script editing time this morning, after seeing a client for her second session yesterday.

I could share a standard audio-but I choose to work a little deeper beneath the surface.

The script I provide is uniquely shaped to best match your own needs, choice of birth environment, and mindset around labour and birth (and sometimes motherhood).

Together during the session, we gently uncover and reframe any limiting beliefs, so the words you listen to truly speak to YOU- dissolving fears, strengthening trust.

A lovely process of co-creation of an audio that will then land into your inbox for you to listen and practice before birth 🌸

What an amazing day to kick off Menopause Awareness Month 💥

On Saturday, we explored the journey of Menopause beyond its manifestations in the physical body (because we are WAY more than just the outer shell of our physical body right?!).

Through holistic ancient practices, we (re) discovered how the physical, energetic, mental, emotional, spiritual bodies are all interconnected and whispering messages to us.

Cultivating more inner listening to what the different parts of our beings have to say can be a powerful guidance through the transformative journey of (peri)menopause.

Therapeutic yogic approaches and Traditional Chinese Medicine can be such a vast source of support to regain a sense of wholeness, vitality and well-being.

And of course…the potent medicine of 17 women gathering with purpose and intention 🌹💖🌹

So much wisdom shared through the connection of sisterhood.

Thank you beautiful people 💐 Your are true Goddesses.

Thank you Renxin, Brigitte Wezel and Aurelie De Schoutheete for the co-creation of a beautiful day🙏

When a friend who is also an incredible body therapist treats you to a Womback wrapping treatment...Wow! The wonderful feeling of dropping into such a deep state of relaxation and surrender — my whole nervous system soothed and reset. Grateful for the healing power of this treatment. Highly recommended! Thank you Satya Roosens:

You are in your late 30s, in your 40s, 50s or post menopause and wanting to better prepare or make sense of your experience ? This workshop is for you 💖

🌸Are you curious to expand your vision of the menopause transition through a more holistic lens and away from the sometimes quite limiting Western medicine system?

🌻In this day workshop, we’ll (re) discover how timeless ancient wisdoms such as the traditional Chinese medicine system, Yoga therapy, energetic body awareness, offer potent tools to navigate this time of life with a deeper sense of ease and empowerment.

🌹There will be plenty of practice time, movement, breathing, opportunities for deep rest so you can experience these teachings in your whole being.

What a heartwarming Menopause Well-Being Circle yesterday 💖 A beautiful wisdom-infused afternoon.

Thank you to the dear ones who took part 🙏

The circle’s energy and reflections were very much guided by the time of seasonal transition we are experiencing right now, both through the rhythms of nature as we are slowly stepping towards Autumn, and our individual experience of our own inner seasons, moving from the summer of our life (bright light, abundance) to the autumn and beyond (the time of harvest, release introspection).

☀️🍂 An inspiring road map of the journey of (peri)menopause and a celebration of change 💥

The next opportunity to gather is on the 4th of October, when I’ll be co-hosting an all day workshop on ´Menopause Through the Energy Body’ with brigittewezel(Yoga therapist/Coach), and special guests anneliesespeel (Traditional Chinese Medicine/Acupuncture) and Aurélie de Schoutheete (Osteopath/Holistic Pelvic Care).

Watch this space!

⭕️ The ‘behind the scene’ work preparing a women’s circle.

Preparing a circle is so so so wonderful.

This is when I feel the intention I want to offer to the gathering come alive 💥

Every little item, discussion prompt, meditation I gather and prepare will hold and carry sense on the day because of the thoughts I have poured into.

This is when I start to feel my heart palpitate from the excitement of soon behind able to step into the next circle and share a magical time with other women 🌹

Next opportunity to join us: (Peri) Menopause Well-Being Circle this coming Saturday, 14:30-17:30 at Shanti Home
