JOURNEYS & EVENTS
The Restroom
To have a soft life is consciously accepting to choose calm over chaos and cultivating a softness that sits happily in the mind body. It’s not easy but a soft life is not indulgent it’s a matter of self preservation. Creating this life that softens the heart in order to be present with life is very necessary. When I was little my mum used to say ‘Araam Kur’ meaning ‘Go to Rest’.
I am delighted to be co facilitating this with my dear friend Emily and we would love to invite you to The Restroom; a series of heart focused gatherings which include massaging the senses to open the heart for integrating mind and body.

THE COLLECTIVE HUG…
I started the collective hug during the pandemic to bring the community together. It is a beautiful soothing place to connect with self and others. These hugs focus on mantras, affirmations and gentle face massage and pressure points which work on self care.
For these journeys you will need:
something to write with and something to write on.
something comfortable to sit on then perhaps to lie on - feel free to be in bed.
a soothing face oil and hand cream as we may greet our faces and hands.
an invitation to be yourself - as you are
a reminder you do not have have to keep your video on and this is not group therapy so you don’t have to speak - I suggest keeping cosy in your nest. I am going to be available to you after the session if you would like to have a chat.
When: Thursday 01st May see below on how to book. A group session via zoom.
Time: 8.00pm - 8.40pm
Cost: £5.00
How to book? The Collective hug in February is in collaboration with my friends Clementine. To join you need to register here: Please do get in touch if you would like the link sent via email. The session starts at 8pm. We will start promptly at 8pm and not able to let anyone in after that time.

Journeys at The Hannah Peschar Sculpture Garden
I am delighted to be back at this beautiful sanctuary. I have been running curated journeys here for several years and it is with great excitement that I am back at my special home.
The Journeys at the garden differ but typically include an audio recording for you to enjoy as you walk around. We will travel on a journey of compassion and tenderness as we practice the ritual of self massage and heart coherence exercises. We will be nourished with a home made herbal tisanes and nourishing treats based on my dear ma’s recipe. As an experienced and certified eco therapist and walk & talk practitioner I am passionate about nature being the constant healer.
I am happy to offer a selection of dates and different journeys:
Chai & Wander / Wonder These specially curated sessions connect us with nature and its wonderful restorative properties. It is well evidenced that being in nature can give us back our energy and vitality, restore our mood and promote well-being. This session will include a 20 minute guided audio (for you to keep) as you walk around the garden, entrance to the garden, group relaxation (weather dependent), a sound immersion using my wonderfully restorative crystal bowls, a tea ritual and sweet treats.

RESTFUL |
What is rest and how do we find sustainable ways to take care of our nervous systems?
I have worked on my own nervous system support following a debilitating menopause and life-threatening pulmonary embolisms post-surgery.
Living with a stutter I have found nervous system support has been essential to help me to feel grounded and safe.
During this session, I will continue to share ways to take care of your nervous system through sustainable self-care during the winter season.
You will:
Be guided through a soothing face massage working on drainage and lifting. This boosts circulation & energy throughout the mind-body.
Follow an EFT tapping protocol (EFT is also known as tapping therapy*). This involves tapping points on your hands & face to boost feelings of self-esteem & self-worth.
Move in restorative & mindful ways to shift stagnant energy promoting a sense of wellbeing and Rest in a guided meditation which is designed to integrate all of the senses and promote a feeling of restfulness.
Please see Vayu yoga cancellation policy when booking. We hope you understand the need for our cancellation policy, to ensure a fair system for everyone coming to the studio.
