Are you craving connection?

Not the surface kind, something far deeper than that

The HeartSomatics™ Women's Circles support you to return to yourself, to your body and the quiet truth that lives beneath all the noise of daily life and all the roles you are holding. We live in a time of rising anxiety and growing isolation, a time when women like you, more than ever are exhausted and disconnected, showing up for everyone around us whilst quietly losing touch with the most essential part of ourselves. And yet something else is also rising, something ancient and deeply feminine, a remembering that is moving through women everywhere.

Women have always gathered in circles

A deep rooted, shared understanding that we are stronger together

There is a resonance that ripples outward when a woman begins to heal, touching everyone around her. In a world that feels increasingly fractured and uncertain this is not a small thing, this is part of how the world heals, and that healing always begins in the body, with the breath, with the heart, our truest portal to presence and to the self that has been quietly waiting beneath all of that.

HeartSomatics™ is the path to this. Working through somatic therapy and the wisdom of the divine feminine, that living life force energy that moves through every woman and through the natural world, mapping the journey through 8 pathways of the heart. From guarded to opening into radiance, because the world does not need more hardness or performance, it needs more softening, more opening and more radiant hearts willing to feel what is real and live from that place.

This is a judgement free space for brave souls, a place to reconnect with your body, your heart and your own inner knowing, held in circle with women who are walking the path, because when women rise, we all rise.

Who this circle is for

Heart-led women who have done some inner work and knows there is more available to her

You are curious about your body, your nervous system and the quieter intelligence that lives within you. You are tired of living mostly in your head and you are ready to feel your way home instead.

You are longing for a space that goes a little deeper, where the connection is not just with others but with yourself, where you can be honest, be still and be genuinely met by women who understand this kind of inner territory.

You do not need any previous experience of somatic work or meditation. You simply need a genuine willingness to slow down and listen to the whispers of your body, your heart and your soul.

This is a space for all bodies.

This circle is held in a ground floor space with ramp access and an accessible toilet. Wheelchair users are warmly welcome. All practices can be adapted and there is no pressure to sit on the floor or move in any particular way. If you have any specific access needs please get in touch before booking so we can make sure everything is in place for you.

What Is Somatic Healing? (and why it might be the missing piece on your journey)

After years of trying to heal only from the neck up, I discovered somatic therapy — a gentle way of listening to the body’s wisdom and finding safety within.

Embodiment Practices for Women Who Feel Burnt Out, Overwhelmed or Disconnected

Burnout is often misunderstood. It’s framed as doing too much, working too hard, or needing better time management.

Signs You Are Disconnected From Yourself (And How to Gently Come Back)

There’s a particular kind of exhaustion that doesn’t come from doing too much. It comes from being disconnected from yourself.
