This is a gentle time of year to clear the last remnants of what we wish to release. Shifting old patterns, habits and stories that you've outgrown and preparing space for new visions, new growth and a renewed sense of Self. It's not a time for effort, but for gently creating space.

This meet will be an opportunity to find clarity in stillness and guided reflection. To settle your nervous system and realign with your authentic nature. A place to gently shift what needs released through gentle movement and be nourished with wholesome connection and a nutritious brunch.

How?
Guided meditation, reflection and journalling practices.
Gentle all-ability movement practices - vagal toning exercises, yoga and dance. No experience necessary.
A heart-warming, good-for-the-soul sing-along.
A nutritious brunch and open-hearted connection with like-minded women.
Realign with nature on the beautiful Flavour First Farm - this place alone is true medicine. ✨

Hello, lovely ladies 💚
Tickets are now available for our next event.
This one feels important.
These winter months can be hard - hard on our nervous systems, hard on our hearts, hard on souls that feel disconnected from their potential and purpose.
Winter calls us to slow down, reflect and do our inner work - so we are ready to unfurl and blossom in Spring with vitality.
This is a time of year to do the necessary work of challenging those self-imposed sticky, heavy limitations that stunt our growth and keep us from living into the best version of ourselves.
So come along to prepare your inner soil, be nourished in the truth of your greatness and prepare to unfurl in Spring.
Susie and I can't wait to see you there. 💖

Spaces limited. Contact Cara on 07977704471 to secure your place.

Dear exhausted women,

It is said that in shamanic communities if you come to the medicine person seeking help for being chronically ill, disheartened, depressed or dispirited, they will ask you four questions:

When did you stop dancing?
When did you stop singing?
When did you stop being enchanted by stories?
When did you stop finding comfort in the sweet territory of silence?

Here at The Wellbeing Club, we are creating a space for women to gather and return to the ancient wisdom of these fundamental practices for well-being. This gathering is an opportunity to take time out to tend to your inner world and ground after what can be an exhausting festive season.
It is a space to let go of the demands that drain and reconnect with your vitality and purpose. You will be treated to a nutritious brunch and feel right at home as together we build a community of supportive, fun-loving, compassionate women to journey alongside back to the best and highest version of ourselves. Expect a hopping playlist and the most beautiful of settings to nourish your soul.

You are welcome to come on your own, just as you are and with absolutely no experience at anything!

Yoga is a beautiful way to tend to the physical body - build strength, flexibility and cultivate balance, coordination, release tension, tend to aches and pains, lower blood pressure and improve posture. All of that. And SO MUCH MORE.

Yoga also provides an opportunity to tend to your mental and emotional wellbeing. Yoga can be a doorway to decluttering the mind, finding perspective and clarity, returning to a place of ease and calm and becoming ‘unstuck.’ Yoga offers us the tools to process and work with our emotions, allowing them to shift, rather than suppressing or denying them.

If you would like a practice that tends to your physical, mental/emotional wellbeing and that is good for your soul, you would be so welcome to come along and be introduced to the wonders of yoga. I would love to meet you too and support you on this journey. Both classes are followed by an optional cuppa and chance to chat and connect.

No experience necessary. These classes are for every woman. The whole session can be done from the chair, or include standing postures.

Feel free to Cara on 07977704471 for more information.

Hello, lovely ladies 💖

The Wellbeing Club with Cara and Susie will meet on Saturday 3rd Jan 10am-12.30 to celebrate Nollaig na mBan or ‘Women’s Christmas’ on Donaghadee’s glorious Flavour First Farm. This is a date cherished in the Irish calendar when women traditionally gather, celebrate and take rest together after a busy festive season. We would love to start the New Year with you in this way - becoming present and intentional, singing and dancing towards hope, joy, purpose, perspective and momentum in 2026. This might also be a lovely Christmas gift for a girlfriend, while helping to support and grow this wonderful gathering of fun, like-minded, supportive women. 💖 Reach out for tickets x
