Sanctuary Within

Sanctuary Within Your Guide to Sanctuary

I’m Jo - the founder and holistic therapist behind Sanctuary Within. Sanctuary Within is that space. We are already whole.

Holistic therapies for mind, body & soul

Massage • Reiki • Crystal & Sound Healing • Yoga • Meditation • Facials • Fertility, Menopause & Pregnancy Massage- Hot Stones
A safe, female-only sanctuary to relax & renew. I created this space for women like me, who have felt lost somewhere along the way - women who are tired of pushing through, holding it all together, and putting everyone else first. Women who are ready to reconnect with their inner calm, reclaim their energy, and remember what it feels like to simply be. For years, I watched women around me carry the weight of the world on their shoulders - stress, sadness, exhaustion, and the relentless pressure to do more and be more. I saw how deeply they needed permission to rest, to release, and to feel safe enough to let go. And I knew I wanted to create a space where that permission was freely given. My Approach to Healing

I don’t believe we are broken and we don’t need fixing. Healing isn’t something that’s done to us; it’s something that unfolds naturally when we feel safe, supported, and truly seen. Every session I offer is guided by intuition and grounded in holistic wisdom. I listen to what your body, mind, and spirit are asking for, and tailor each treatment to meet you exactly where you are. Whether you’re navigating fertility, pregnancy, menopause, grief, stress, or simply needing a quiet moment of peace - this is your sanctuary.

✨ "Amazing as per usual. Jo creates such a calming environment, I always feel like a different person when I leave. 100% recommend!" ✨

Words like these remind me why I do what I do...

Every session at Sanctuary Within is about more than just the treatment-it's about creating a space where you can truly let go, breathe deeply, and reconnect with yourself.

When clients tell me they leave feeling like a different person, it's because they've given themselves permission to rest, heal, and just BE.

✨ Revamped colour. Revamped energy. Revamped space. ✨
She’s finally complete… (well, almost - still waiting for divine guidance on the quilt cover 😅) ✨

🌿 The Sanctuary Reborn 🌿

After a weekend of paint, polish, and pure intention… Sanctuary Within has found her new rhythm.
This space has always been more than just a treatment room : it’s where energy settles, hearts open, and peace slowly unfolds.

Now, she feels even more connected -earthy, rooted, and real.
The tones are deeper, the energy calmer but somehow heightened…

Every shade, every texture, every gentle glow has been chosen to help you just breathe.
To feel safe and remember your peace and calm.

The energy feels richer now - grounded in stillness, yet alive with possibility.
She’s ready for her next chapter… and so am I. 🤎

(Only thing missing now is a decision on the quilt cover - send either spirit guides or sage, actually both 😅 and for everyone who knows Sarah… she’s not being helpful haha!)

A Message from the Universe

You asked: “How do I break a pattern?”

And the Universe whispered:

You don’t break it by force, lovely one.
You break it by awareness.

By noticing when the triggers begin,
and choosing to pause instead of react.

By meeting the old version of yourself
with compassion instead of criticism
and gently refusing to fall back into old ways.

You don’t have to fight what you’ve outgrown;
you only need to stop feeding it.

Patterns dissolve when peace becomes more familiar than pain.

So soften.
Breathe.
Choose again.

That’s how transformation begins.

From The Universe

Unstoppable, They Called Her

Driven. Resilient. Unstoppable.

But I see it -the quiet pain in her eyes.
The tiredness that no one else notices… or chooses to ignore.
The inner power that keeps her moving, even when she's running on empty.

That's what I see most days at Sanctuary Within - women standing tall, holding everything and everyone together, even when they're nearly on their knees.

We can't pour from an empty cup and no one understands that more than me!

So this is your reminder, my Sanctuary Within family:
Be kind to yourself.
Be gentle with your heart.
Be true to the part of you that's quietly asking for rest.

We don't have to be unstoppable all the time.
We just have to be true to ourselves.

'Remember Her' December Evening Retreat

An evening to remember the woman you are and always were.
When did you fade?

Not all at once.
Slowly. Quietly.
Beneath the weight of everything you carry.
Beneath the roles you play.
The smiles you wear.
The needs you meet before your own.

You can’t quite name what’s wrong - you just feel… off balance.
A little lost.
Like you’re living your life, but not quite in it.
Like somewhere along the way, you disappeared and no one noticed.
Not even you.
But she’s still there.
The woman who laughed freely.
Who knew what she wanted.
Who felt seen, heard, alive.

She didn’t leave.
She’s just been waiting - quietly - for you to remember her.

Event Details

Thursday 4th December | 6pm–9pm | £25 | Paramount Gym Bedlington

This isn’t about becoming someone new.
It’s about coming home to yourself.

'Remember Her' is a gentle evening retreat for women who feel:
:A little disconnected from themselves
: Unseen or unheard in their own lives
: Like they’ve lost the spark they used to have
:Ready to pause, breathe, and reconnect

What Awaits You
Gentle Pilates with Ashleigh
Movement that reconnects you to your body - not to push or perform, but to feel and soften.
Guided Meditation & Rituals
Practices to help you drop beneath the noise and remember what’s true.
Sound Healing
Vibrations that wash through you, releasing what you’ve been holding and awakening what’s been sleeping.

This is your permission to pause.
Your invitation to stop, to feel, to remember.

Who This Is For

This evening is for you if:
You can’t quite put your finger on what’s wrong, but something feels off
You’ve been giving so much that you’ve forgotten to receive
You feel invisible - even to yourself
You’re ready to reconnect with the woman you’ve been missing

You don’t need to be broken to be here.
You just need to be ready to remember.

Booking Details
Spaces are limited to keep the evening intimate and held.
Book now on the events page at www.sanctuarywith-in.com, or contact Ashleigh Fitness Freaks or me directly.

She was never gone.
She’s been waiting for you to come back.

To remember you.

Digital Detox - Reclaiming Your Presence 🌙

You don't have to be constantly online to stay connected.
You don't have to scroll to feel seen, or post to prove you're present.

True connection begins the moment you pause.
When you lift your gaze, feel the earth beneath your feet, hear your own breath again - that's where real life is happening.

A digital detox isn't about switching off completely; it's about coming home to yourself.
It's choosing to be present, to listen, to feel - without the constant hum of notifications pulling you away.

Because your energy deserves quiet.
Your mind deserves rest.
And your heart deserves space to simply be......
