A women’s circle is a sacred gathering to release, unravel and feel safe to be yourself. A warm hug that is extended without the need for touch, a hug extended to the soul.

It is an honour to announce that is returning once again to Leeds to create another wonderful experience for those wanting to participate, for those wanting to put two hours aside for themselves, for those wanting to take a real from everyday life, for those wanting to stop doing a for a little but to be…

If you wish to join, please message me or Darleen, or else find a link in my bio to Eventbrite. Whichever way you choose, we welcome you and look forward to seeing you on Sunday, 29th January, from 3-5pm.

Conversation starter: It has been a year full of change, adjustment and realisations for me. I have been on a healing journey for the past 6 years and what I thought it is a destination I am chasing, I now recognise how much the path is of significance. The ups and downs, the people we meet and those who depart from our lives, the experiences we have, the learning, the failing and the succeeding…

From my corporate career success was defined in a very particular way. How well one is known and how much money one earns. Sadly that is kind of it mostly. Nowadays I like to define success differently.

Success is the freedom I gane, the time I manage to carve and dedicate to my passions, the moments I spend with those I love. According to this definition, my corporate career was a complete fail. I did earn lots of money and I made a name for myself, but I never had time for my art, everything in my life was structured around my work commitments and there wasn’t much left. I had lost motivation for life, while it all went for work. I kept people in my life who didn’t deserve, I occupied my free time with catching up on sleep and night life.

I do understand that each and everyone of us has a different perspective and that is perfectly ok. So here I ask you, how do you define success in life for yourself? What is one tiny step you can take towards coming closer to your version?

Lots of hugs,
Maria

This time of the year is for me the most difficult. We transition towards shorter days, more darkness and cold. The stress around end of the year and also Christmas. Presents, events, family, travel…

Because of all of the above, and I am sure each of us can add quite a few more points to the list, I start feeling disconnected, I even tend to subconsciously withdraw and sometimes even isolate. Why? Well preserving energy, a deep sense of the need to reflect and sometimes just overwhelm.

It is a time I choose carefully who and why I connect with. I long for safety, warmth, understanding, support, release and just letting go for a little.

If you are feeling anything like that, I’d like to invite you to the upcoming women’s circle. Held by the incredible , it is always a nourishing, refreshing and empowering experience that recharges the batteries and gives some light back to our souls.

Join us on Sunday, 27th November at 3pm and give yourself a little gift of self care and love.

Just few spaces are still available, so hop over to my link in bio and make sure you save yours! 💜

Lots of hugs and I look forward to seeing you soon!

The leaves are all around us now.

It's this time when I remember more than ever that nature means so much to me. Yes, it's beautiful- but what it represents is so much more than surface level beauty.

Mother Nature is the ultimate badass. She's powerful, nurturing, inspiring, mysterious and takes no talk from anyone.

Her beauty, age, form... they're all bottom of the list of what defines her.

And as I look at these leaves under my feet, I also realise how unique they all are. Nature does not apologise for her differences.

I think more women should aspire to be like her. Hell, I aspire to be like. I won't apologise for my body, personality or my -very- enthusiastic brain. It is what defines me and I'm proud.

Hugs,
Maria xx

The amazing Erica is back giving us another unique and connective experience. Make Your Own Macrame Plant Hanger is a blissful union between relaxation and creativity.

Erica will guide you through the Macrame techniques of weaving your own hanger. This hanger not only makes for an incredible gift, but also a wonderful keepsake of such a personal experience.

Tea and biscuits on arrival, with music, incense and general chit chats during the class.

Due to the abhorrent rise in spiking in Leeds, as well as the number of attacks on women, we need a way to feel safe.

On Sunday 28th Nov at 1-2:30pm, we've teamed up with Rick Manners School of Boxing to provide a comprehensive self defence class for women.

Sadly, now more than ever we need to take our safety into our own hands. Rick is offering this class for just £10pp and everyone is welcome, no matter your level of fitness.

We genuinely hope to make a difference for any woman who may find herself in a situation like this.

You can book through the the events section of our page, our Festival Group, or alternatively email rick at rmboxbookings@gmail.com

Hugs,
Maria & Leah xx

A huge thank you to everyone who participated in the festival over the weekend, and a massive hug to Erica as well!!!

Erica did a beautiful friends and family head massage class on Sunday. It was so relaxing and everyone left with such beaming smiles (and crazy hair 😂)

BUT.....

That's not the end of our collaboration with Erica and ID Holistic!! There are still places for the Make Your Own Macrame Plant Hanger next Sunday. This is a 3 hour class with drinks, food, incense and music. Erica will teach you how to make a plant hanger by weaving string and beads. They make an incredible Christmas gift for a loved one, a house warming present, or just a lovely treat for yourself.

Something I am grateful for: the sun 🌞

I love its consistency, routine, and promise of return. It is a reminder that even our darkest days won't last forever.

Who else is loving the autumn skies at the moment?

There has been a lot of changes in my life. I've been meditating more deeply, journalling, thinking...

It helps me keep calm. To sort my thoughts through waves of anxiety and overwhelm. It makes me realise how powerful I am. I am more than what is holding me back.

I realise I need more time for myself, and not feel guilty for doing so. I need to take myself on more coffee dates, treat myself to netflix, to walks in the woods, to lie in's.

Let this post be a reminder that you need to do that too. You work so hard, you don't see the little things you achieve every day because you're too focused on one big goal. You're doing great. Give yourself time today to just be, without that awful guilt. Your happiness is the most important goal in your life 💜

Hugs and peace to everyone,
Maria xx
