Hi Reader
This is just a quick update, thank you so much for opening and reading this 🙏🏻
It’s been an emotional rollercoaster of a week and I’m so grateful to Sarah Guest who stepped in at short notice to help me out on Wednesday to support a loved one who is gravely ill. It is heartbreaking to see someone in pain and anguish and suffering and also knowing - for whatever reason they have neglected their wellbeing 😢.
This week, I’ve witnessed physical struggles with weakness and lack of strength and I’ve also worked with clients who are strong but have pain and tension. From a Clinical Somatic viewpoint, somatics comes first, strength comes on top of ease. We believe if you strengthen on top of tension patterns you will just strengthen that pattern and increase dysfunction, so over the month of June I will be guiding you through somatic ways to strengthen.
Sound & Soma returns on Friday and there’s still time to book for the retreat day at Aubourn Hall on the 13th June, a day to rest and renew your energy and spirit.
From my heart, soul & soma to yours,
Liz 🧡🙏🏻

From my Heart Soul & Soma,
Liz 🧡🙏🏻

Reconnection Retreat 2027
Following two successful retreats in 2025 & 2026 I am returning to the amazing Noka, Curlew and Avocet lodges in January 2027. These are the perfect venues that offer stunning accommodation and facilities in the lovely town of Woodhall Spa just 15 miles south east of Lincoln but a world away from your life.
The intention for my retreats is to create a supportive space for women to find time to nourish, nurture, heal, express, rest and reconnect. I am always humbled, grateful and in awe of everyone who joins me for embracing both the weekend and more importantly, themselves and each other.
