What an honour and a privilege to not only host, but also facilitate a session dedicated entirely to restoration for a group of women in celebration of Women’s Month.
I began by framing our time together as a courageous conversation with the body.
Drawing on Brené Brown’s permissions, I invited the women to give themselves permission to be imperfect and embrace the messiness; to release urgency and make space for their own unfolding; to release the need to know and instead choose curiosity; and to choose presence over multitasking and distraction.
The postures were simple, but as I kept reminding them, simple does not necessarily mean easy.
In a world that asks so much of women , to produce, care, carry, solve, endure and keep going, slowing down can itself require courage.
So we practised staying.
Listening.
Softening.
Receiving.
And perhaps the most important reminder of all: you don't only deserve rest. You are worth the time it takes to restore yourself.
