We are passionate about supporting women who have full plates. Whether that is dealing with changing hormones, the mental load, parenthood, caring responsibilities, post partum depression, relationship challenges, potentially late ADHD diagnosis, and questioning what they want from their career. This is a day to step out of constant doing, reconnect with yourself, and leave with simple, sustainable tools you can take back into everyday life. 

If you’re feeling a bit frazzled round the edges, stressed, overwhelmed, or simply in need some you time and space to breathe, this day offers gentle, practical support to help you feel calmer, clearer, and more resourced as you return back to the real world.

Held in the peaceful surroundings of The Gathering Fields, the day includes a set of sessions that take a holistic view of us as people. We'll weave in information on sleep, nutrition, mindful movement, and nature-based practices. Coaching-based reflections will help us to explore unhelpful assumptions, thoughts and beliefs and find more compassionate perspectives which help us be kinder to ourselves which, in turn, can support emotional regulation.

This is a spacious, supportive and pressure-free day among other like-minded women who get it. All practices are gentle, optional, and adaptable.

We hope by the end of the day you will feel more peaceful, empowered and more able to deal with the challenges of daily life.
