Harness your body's natural intelligence to heal, process, grow, transform and thrive.
Online and In-Person in Aljezur, Portugal
Globally women are experiencing record levels of stress, overwhelm and disconnection from our vitality, voice, self-worth and purpose.
The reasons for this are becoming startingly clear.
Number One: Modernity. A system that expects and forces us to operate like machinery is no friend to women.
Number Two: Many of us are stuck in a cycle of default nervous system responses and adaptive behavioural strategies that keep us away from what we truly want (in our relationships, lifestyle and career), but we don't know how to break free.
Nervous system-led and nature-inspired somatic approaches offer a way forward.
If you're here, it's because you're looking for support to let go of the past and finally thrive in your work, health, & relationships.
Your nervous system is not only responsible for the way you see, feel and are acting in the world, it´s also responsible for harnessing and directing your life force energy.
Working somatically holds the key to:
- Processing and healing from past hurts and what's often termed ´trauma´.
- Working with and through emotional triggers to find greater freedom from them
- Becoming a more free, authentic and easeful version of yourself
- Feeling good in your skin and expanding in to your capacity
- Having a more loving relationship with your body
- Improving your health
- Building loving and fulfilling relationships and friendships
- Getting clarity on your purpose
"Sarah has an amazing ability to guide using intuition and wisdom, and trusts in your own wisdom for your own path; which makes for some powerful expansion and growth! It has been an experience that has a hard-to-put-my-finger-on quality to it, because really, this experience has been pure magic!"
Dr. Bekah Shallcross, Clinical Therapist and Founder of The Feminist Therapist Centre
As an experienced somatic practitioner, I've worked with hundreds of clients so far, helping them to turn their pain and challenges into healing, growth, oppose and greater resilience.
Here's what the end result of you and me working together could look like for you:
- You´re less triggered by things.
- You've increased your capacity to receive (love, connection, ease, health, money).
- You feel clearer on who you are and what you're here for.
- You´re calmer and more relaxed in your skin.
- Your ability to relate to others improves, your relationships are deepening, and you´re able to be more present in your life.
- The way you relate to your body (and/or symptoms) has dramatically improved.
-
You're more in contact with your creative expression.
- You have deeper clarity and trust in yourself and in your next chapter.
- Life feels more joyful and spacious
- You´re better able to gather resources and opportunities that are allowing you to live your highest purpose.
"Sarah is a true embodiment of feminine leadership and working one-on-one with her has been profoundly transformative. I was very stuck in debilitating fear and trauma patterns when we first met and I knew I needed to dig deep and start investing in myself. Sarah’s words and divine energy resonated so deeply, I just couldn’t ignore my body’s “YES" to this work and the shifts were instantaneous! The sacred container Sarah created served as a powerful mirror which allowed all parts of me to be seen and heard with so much love and compassion. She took me on a deep inward journey to my inner-Priestess, consistently reflecting truth back to me so that I could begin to disentangle myself from my conditioning and unapologetically step into my power and purpose. It felt like pure alchemy and a long-overdue reclamation of self. My body, mind, heart and soul now feel so much more aligned and alive and I’m open to receiving abundance with ease and flow. Long gone are the days of pushing and forcing!"
Dr. Laura de Pian, Embodiment Facilitator & Founder of The Feminine Revival
This is the work. It's deep work. It's nourishing work. It's powerful work. Together we will focus on things such as:
- Recognising your default nervous system patterns that are keeping you stuck, and shifting them so that you can experience new freedom and momentum in your life.
- Identifying your unmet needs and feeling worthy enough to get them met so that you feel better nourished and taken care of.
- Strengthening your capacity to receive - love, belonging, support, money etc....
- Unburdening the parts of you that are constantly striving and on alert, so that you can feel calmer and more at ease
- Bringing more spaciousness and fun into your life
- Boundary repair and implementation that builds your confidence to say yes to the things that light you up and no to the things that don't
- Processing past hurts so that you can love more deeply and be in relationship with people who are good for you.
- Getting to know who you authentically are
- Regenerative life design that honours your natural cycles and increases your capacity, vitality, resiliency, and sense of aliveness
- Deepening your spiritual connection so that you feel more connected to something bigger.
"When you work with the natural intelligence of your biology, the whole world will open up for you."
