Today has been a slow day to myself of pottering…. garden foraging (with a little help from the florist) and wreath creating to celebrate spring equinox. 💚

My monthly women’s circle is all about coming and being as we are. It’s not always easy and we can’t always find words to express how we are. Gentle exploration of sensations in the body can encourage self expression. Sometimes its words, sometimes tears, sometimes a silence and all are held in equal reverence. Sometimes we discover grief, sometimes it’s self celebration. As a group of women we held space for all of this in last night’s circle. In witnessing each other there’s always something in ourselves we discover. There’s such natural tenderness towards each other. We also laugh a lot.

I am opening a new circle one Thursday evening a month 7.30-9.30pm and there are spaces. Please WhatsApp 07984 553465 if you’d like to know more or message this page,

March’s ‘treasure and release’ retreat day witnessed us journalling and sharing what is ready to be released from our lives- habitual behaviours, thoughts, long held beliefs and was transmuted through movement, self massage, the breath, yoga nidra and fire ceremony into treasure-what we want to protect, nurture and grow within us. There was so much synchronicity as there always is when women gather and share... How we want to release the feelings of responsibility for everyone and everything and treasure a slower pace of being honouring where we are in life. We talked about how in perimenopause our physical energy lessens and our intuition and psychic energy grows. Slowing our pace rather than making ourselves wrong enables us to harness the potency of this transition.

The next ‘treasure and release’ day is on Sunday 19th April.

I sat to contemplate all the things I need to do in the garden then ended up with an hour of therapy… springtime birdsong in the sunshine 💚

The Garden Temple Sanctuary is cleared, cleansed, warmed and lit ready to welcome my monthly women’s circle this evening.

This is a space created for you to nurture every part of you. Your body and nervous system receives a guided deep rest practice and from that rested place you are invited to share whatever arises in the safety and trust of the circle. The same women meet each month, this way the safety and trust are nurtured. Those that have committed to monthly sessions over several years now have found the ‘holding’ of the circle has really supported them through life’s challenges and transitions.
I am considering opening a new monthly circle this spring. If you are interested in joining please let me know. I am open to running it either during the day or evening . WhatsApp 07984 553465 or message the page if you would like to know more,

☀️ Place Filled ☀️

A rare place has become available on the South of France retreat this summer. I haven’t advertised this year as it filled straightaway with previous attendees.

We will meet at Manchester airport and fly over to Carcassonne on 27th June, we’ll spend the morning and lunch time in La Cite, an impressive medieval village in the heart of Occitanie. After lunch we’ll be taken to our beautiful retreat home for the week. You’ll stay in this gorgeous farmhouse with your own en-suite room, all meals are lovingly prepared by our private chef. There is gentle yoga on the lawn overlooking the valley and the Pyrenees before breakfast then spacious days round the pool, in a comfy shady spot with a book and amazing visiting therapists offering massage and reflexology. There are trips out to a fabulous local market, the sacred Rennes le Chateau, a swimming lake and picnic and a sunrise hike (all optional). We’ll gather on some afternoons for relaxation and breathwork sessions and in the evenings after drinks and dinner on the terrace you can curl up in bed with a recorded sleep yoga nidra to settle you soundly asleep.
If you feel this is for you, message me here or WhatsApp

‘Treasure and Release’
Sundays 11-2.30
15th Feb , 8th March , 19th April

Experience a deeply nurturing journey through the chakras (energy centres) and koshas (layers of being : physical, mental, emotional and spiritual).

These Sundays have been created from my experience of the healing potency of breathing, subtle floor movement, self massage, journalling, deep rest, and sharing (optional).

We work with intention to reveal our heart’s desire; the treasure and release what stands in its way through a simple fire ceremony.
We share a wholesome and healthy lunch, tea and chocolate.

All are welcome and all of you is welcome, I always say ‘come as you are’, no need to bring ‘your best self’. No previous knowledge of yoga, chakras etc is necessary.

Only 6 places on each date.
I also have availability for Tuesday, Wednesdays and Thursdays if you would like to gather your own small group of friends, family or colleagues and create a bespoke retreat day) (min 4, max 6)
