This evening is for women holding a lot — work, family, relationships and the invisible mental load that comes with all of it. You don't need any experience with breathwork, somatic practice or reflective work. You don't need to be in crisis, or have it all figured out. You just need to be curious about slowing down and reconnecting with yourself. Come as you are.

You'll be gently guided through a reflective experience that combines nervous system-informed practices, restorative breathwork and guided reflection. There's a natural arc to the evening: settling in, slowing down, noticing what you're carrying, and creating space for what might be ready to soften or shift. It closes with reflection on what you want to move towards in the season ahead. Nothing is performative and nothing is rushed.

No. There is no expectation to share anything personal. Some moments may invite quiet reflection or journaling, but what you notice and what you take from the evening is yours. You're welcome to simply be present

Your nervous system is constantly reading your environment and adjusting your body's state in response — often without you consciously choosing it. When you're holding a lot for a long time (deadlines, caregiving, decisions, other people's needs) your system can stay in a low-grade state of alert long after the actual pressure has passed. That's why you can feel "fine" on paper and still feel wired, flat or far from yourself.

Nervous system-informed work simply means the evening is designed with this in mind. Rather than asking you to think your way to calm, the practices work with your body and breath to help your system recognise that it's safe to settle. This is about creating the physiological conditions for reflection and reconnection, not analysing or fixing anything.

Breathwork refers to using specific, guided breathing patterns to influence your physical and mental state. In this evening, the breathwork is restorative rather than intense or cathartic — it's used to support settling, not to provoke a big release. You'll be guided at every step, and you're always in control of your own pace and depth of breath. If at any point you'd rather breathe naturally, that's completely fine.

"Somatic" simply means relating to the body. Somatic practices are ways of paying attention to and working with physical sensation — posture, tension, breath, stillness — rather than only working with thoughts. Much of what we carry (stress, overwhelm, unspoken pressure) shows up in the body before we've fully named it in words. Somatic practices offer a way to notice and gently work with that, alongside the breathwork and reflection.

No. This is not therapy, counselling or a clinical intervention, and it isn't a substitute for professional mental health support. It's a facilitated space for reflection, settling and reconnection. If you're currently working with a therapist or health professional, this evening can sit alongside that — just let Felicity know beforehand if you have any concerns.

Come as you are — there's no dress code or preparation needed. Wear something comfortable that you can breathe easily in. You're welcome to bring a journal if you'd like to write, though this isn't required.

Breathwork isn't recommended for everyone — for example, if you're pregnant, have a cardiovascular condition, epilepsy, a recent injury or surgery, or a significant mental health condition, please get in touch beforehand so we can talk through whether this evening is right for you, and how to adapt the practices if needed.
