WOMEN’S RETREATS

UNDERSTANDING YOUR BODY FROM THE INSIDE OUT because when we start caring for ourselves from the inside, the outside often takes care of itself.

Ways to work together

YIN YOGA

Yin Yoga is the antidote to your busy modern life.

Every Tuesday at 8.15pm, we meet on Zoom to release stress and tension, aid sleep, and support women’s health and fertility.

TRE® is somatic, stress release tool to regulate the nervous system, release the imprint of past trauma, and naturally shake off any tension and stress that is stuck inside of the body.

Everything she does is done with such a wonderful calming energy and such love and kindness, with a genuine feeling that she wants to help and heal people, as well as empower them to better look after themselves. I’ve learned some great tools to better manage stress and release the stress and bad energy from my body and mind."

Hi, I’m Laura,

Women’s Health Expert, Yin Yoga Teacher, TRE® Practitioner & Acupuncturist in training.

A young woman with blonde curly hair, wearing a black sports bra and a loose white long-sleeve shirt, smiles and laughs against a plain white wall.

I have been studying periods, menstrual cycles, fertility, and the female body since coming off hormonal contraception and losing my period at aged 27 (I’m now 38).

I work with a variety of modalities to offer a body-first approach to women’s health that roots in education, cyclical living and somatic practices.
