I told the BBC that we should celebrate falling asleep in staff meetings... and I meant it. 💤

On Monday, I joined Ian Skye at to talk about the scandal of his mid-meeting power nap. While the room laughed, I saw a body finally asking for what it needed.

As a Charity CEO and former Civil Service leader, I know the always-on trap. I lived it until it broke me.

Now, I’m helping people and businesses break the cycle.

The Reality Check:

❌ Corporations have business plans to keep you scrolling.
✅ You have a birthright to inner peace.

1 hour of Yoga Nidra = 4 hours of restorative sleep as a sleep supplement. Whether you join me in a cozy Rest Nest in Buxton or we bring a Nap Club to your office, this is about moving from frazzled to flourishing

✨ Come rest with me:
1️⃣ Individual sessions: Join our next Rest Nest in Buxton (link in bio).
2️⃣ Workplace Nap Clubs: Want to bring this peace to your team? DM me ‘REST’ to chat about a taster session for your office.

Let’s stop apologising for being human. 🌿

I’m finding it impossible to do the 'usual s**t' today.

Between the global headlines and the local apathies, there is an anger rising in my bones. A warrior energy that wants to scream at the 'what the actual fu***ng f**k' of it all.

But I know where that anger needs to go. Rest is a revolt. If we stay 'wired,' we burn out. The system wants us too tired to act.

I am holding space this weekend for the space-holders.

☁️ The Rest Nest (Buxton) | Sunday

If you need to step off the world so you don't get swept away by the madness, the door is open.

Ps Tricia Hersey reminds us that Rest is Resistance. Even 10 minutes of closed eyes today is a win for your nervous system.

I’ve found it hard to find the words to post lately, because sometimes the most honest thing for me is to be is quiet.

Between the weight of the world news and the immediate needs within my own four walls, I’ve found myself with much less energy than usual for the doing of life.

Instead of pushing through, I’ve been resting a lot more than I normally would.

I’m leaning into my own medicine and allowing myself the grace to move slowly. Which I know is a privilege I don't take for granted.

I suspect many of you are navigating that same polarity today, trying to stay present for your own lives while your hearts are pulled toward the heaviness elsewhere.

March is here now.

I can see the light changing and feel the first, fragile stirrings of Spring. It is a quiet reminder that even when the world feels frozen in conflict or grief, the earth is still moving toward a turning point.

If you are feeling the weight of the world today, I hope you find a small pocket of stillness. You don't have to carry it all at once. You are allowed to land, to breathe, and to just be still for a moment.

Spring is coming. Go gently.

To everyone who hasn't slept properly this week... 🌑

The Eclipse and full moon energy is no joke.

I’ve spent the morning chanting 108 rounds of the Gayatri Mantra into the sunrise to clear the static, but I can feel how heavy the energy is for everyone right now.

If you are waking up tired, feeling wired, or just navigating a very loud to-do list, I’m inviting you to stop.

I have a few spaces left for our Nap Club in Whaley Bridge tomorrow night (Wednesday) at 8 PM.
This is an 1.5hrs of pure, guided restoration.

Nothing to do, no one to give to but you. Just a deep, breath in a space that has been intentionally cleared for you.

Come as you are. Leave your phone, your worries, and everything else at the door.

Booking link in Bio or comment REST and I’ll send you the details.

I’ve been a little quiet this week.

Truthfully, the Eclipse Doorway has felt less like a gentle transition and more like a total renovation. Life has been 'lifing' loudly, and as much as I talk about rest, even I have to remind myself to drop the anchor when the waters get choppy.

As the sap rises and Spring begins to push through the cold earth, I’m seeing this theme everywhere: Big life change is here. It’s messy, it’s vulnerable, and it requires a deeper level of self-honesty than we are used to.

If you are feeling the 'loud lifing' of this portal, please know you don't have to navigate it at full speed or on your own.

Next Wednesday (March 4th), we gather in Whaley Bridge for Nap Club. An hour and a half to lay it all down. To stop figuring it out and just be.

And for those who need a private sanctuary to integrate these big shifts, the Buxton Rest Nest has 1:1 spaces held for you this Sunday.

Let’s land together. 🌿

This week feels big. Between the half-term juggle and the high energy of this New Moon/Eclipse season, I know many of you are feeling that overloaded sensation in your chest.

I walked through the snow to the Rest Nest this weekend and felt so much gratitude for this sanctuary. It’s not about fixing anything. It’s about remembering who you are when you aren't busy taking care of the rest of the world.

To the woman who is usually the anchor for everyone else: Let me be the anchor for you this weekend.

I have 3 x 1:1 opening at 10, 12 and 2.

The altar is set. The blankets are warm. The space is held.

DM me if this feels like the chance to breathe you’ve been waiting for or book via the link in my Bio.

To the woman currently navigating the Half-Term Invisible Load.

It is Half Term. It is the week of the Fire Horse and the stirring of the New Moon. The energy is undeniably high, and the demands on your time have likely doubled.

Between the work calls and the Pancake Day flour, between the work targets and the Half Term juggle, where are you landing?

When the external noise reaches fever pitch, your most powerful leadership move isn't to push through. It’s to step out.

Tomorrow night, Wednesday at 7:30 PM, I have one final 1:1 opening in the Rest Nest midweek.

This is your invitation to leave the chaos at the door. No doing, no performing, no juggling. Just 75 minutes of deep, nervous-system reclamation.

As we move toward the next Eclipse, the world is asking for your fire. But fire without a hearth burns out. Tomorrow night is about tending your hearth, quieting the mind so your intuition can speak again.

The Details:
✨ When: Tomorrow, Wednesday 18th Feb | 7:30 PM
✨ Where: The Rest Nest, Buxton
✨ The Experience: Total sanctuary.

Soft layers, guided stillness, and a complete release of the juggle.

Everything is taken care of. You simply need to arrive.

Come home to the quiet. It’s where your next big idea is waiting.

P.S. If you feel like you’re holding your breath until Monday... this is your permission to exhale now.

With love,
Sam x

A big weekend of expansive energy ✨

Shared Nidra with 70+ beautiful souls in New Mills, held sacred 1:1 space in my Rest Nest, and connected with incredible hearts in Macclesfield.

In the past, this kind of success used to scare me. My nervous system would feel unsafe, pushing me to retreat, to shrink back.

This time? It's different. 🌿

I'm truly landing in my power, understanding that my softness isn't a weakness, it's my superpower. Just like Alayna's beautiful song, Tender, reminds me.

I'm learning to hold both the momentum AND the deep rest. No more success hangovers. No more shrinking.

This is the energy I hold for you in our sessions. Whether you are navigating a season of big success or just trying to find your feet again, the Rest Nest is your safe harbor. It’s where we quiet the noise so you can finally hear yourself.

I’m now booking 1:1 Rest Nest sessions for rest of Feb and March and have a few spots left for our next community Nap Club.

Come home to your softness. It’s where your real power lives.

✨ Sunday Rest Nest (Buxton): 1:1 Deep Sanctuary
Bonus Wednesday night 18th Feb for half term calm
✨ Wednesday Nap Club (Whaley Bridge): Community Rest 4th March

When you’re too tired to even do wellness.

You know the feeling. It’s Wednesday evening, your bones are heavy, and your nervous system is buzzing from a thousand tiny decisions.

You know you should do the yoga, or the meditation, or the breathwork. But the truth?

You’re so depleted that even self-care feels like another thing on your to-do list.

So you reach for the wine. You reach for the scroll. You reach for the binge-watch.

Not because you’re lazy, but because your body is desperately seeking a way to turn the world off for a moment. But you’ve noticed, haven't you? That kind of rest doesn't actually reach the places that hurt.

You wake up on Thursday just as depleted as before.

The Rest Nest is different because it requires zero effort from you.

This is the one-to-one sanctuary for the person who has tried everything and is simply ready to be held.

You don't have to do the Nidra (guided meditation). You don't have to perform the wellness. You just show up, lie down, and let me guide your nervous system back to its baseline of safety, home.

It’s the deep, spiritual listening your spirit has been craving, without you having to say a word.

Sundays in Buxton | 10am - 4pm For the one who is done with trying and is ready to simply be.

✨ Book your sanctuary via the link in bio. Bonus limited spots in the evening Weds 18th Feb.

The light returns quietly.

The earth begins to gently stir.

After so many grey, rain heavy days, I am noticing how deeply people are craving light and warmth.

Not just daylight, but the feeling of being warmed from the inside.

This season does not ask us to rush.

It asks us to tend the flame.

In the Rest Nest, we rest in a way that lets the nervous system soften and thaw.

Through Yoga Nidra, people often tell me they can genuinely feel the warmth of sunlight moving through the body.

A gentle, nurturing heat.

Like being held by the sun while you rest.

Rest is how I stay hopeful without bypassing what is hard.

It is how I stay open, regulated, and resourced enough to meet life.

Rest nest is open every Sunday and this February I have a few extra spaces opened up on Wednesday evenings.

If your body is longing for rest, warmth, and a quiet place to land, you would be very welcome.

Rest Nest is not about doing better.

It is about coming home.

Message me if you’d like one of the spaces.
