I am a Psychosynthesis Executive Leadership Coach with further qualifications in systemic and embodiment disciplines. In the last 3 years I have been an Executive Leadership Coach, for clients located in Jersey and London. My clients are women in senior leadership roles, who are responsible for innovative change. I have over 30 years experience as a Chartered Accountant supporting the financial planning, financial management and development of business cases for the design and implementation of change up to the value of half a billion pounds in the public health care sector. This is invaluable in understanding and relating to the difficulties my leadership clients face implementing sustainable global change. As a qualified teacher of adults, I have experience teaching and facilitating change for professionals. With a passion for continual personal and professional development, I have qualifications in psychology, mindfulness, and embodiment practices. I use these skills with clients to manage and moderate their responses to change. Within my Parish Community in the last 3 years, I led the development of a strategy for Grouville to support the achievement of carbon neutrality. Environmental Grouville is a community driven platform established by me, dedicated to achieving the implementation of our carbon neutrality strategy and protecting the environment. I have played a leading role in collaboration with other Parishioners in envigorating historic democratic processes through the Parish Assemblies. Attendances of more than 200 parishioners were recorded for the contested Roads Committee election and the 2022 successful Requēte which contributed to amendments to the Island Bridging Plan, in particular to preserving Grouville’s important wetlands. When parishioners collaborate, they co-create a vision for the whole community. Flatter group structures with partnerships that use the best of different talents and experiences empower individuals and result in quicker implementation of change. My top 8 strengths are:
Exploring Possibilities - developing concepts, applying theories & identifying underlying principles
Providing Insights - continuously improving things, identifying key issues, & making intuitive judgments
Examining Information - processing information, asking probing questions & finding solutions
Understanding People - showing empathy, listening to people & understanding motivation
Developing Strategies - forming strategies, anticipating trends & envisaging the future
Generating Ideas
Challenging Ideas
Convincing People

My yoga practice in the Eleven Yurt today was magical. The earthy smell and the sound of the rain interspersed with sunshine reconnected me to my body, nature and the spaciousness of winter. I can already feel the sparks of potential filling the space I have cleared through autumn and winter. Do you?

New Moon Yoga, Monday 19th January 2026 ***sorry, now full - next session Monday 16th February***

The new moon in Capricorn is exact on Sunday 18th January, but the energy of the new moon will still be with us on Monday 19th. We will be gathering in the yoga studio at 7pm as the Capricorn New Moon vibe moves into Aquarius. We will be sensing into the energy & sparks within. A calling to start something important that matters to you for the long term. What you want to aim and move towards. We will also acknowledge the completion and endings that are allowing you to look out onto the horizon with new eyes. With the Capricorn new moon energies entering Aquarius on Monday we will play with the waters of inspiration, higher wisdom and breakthrough ideas. The stirrings and offerings of the visionary within.

NEW in the Yoga Studio in Grouville - Strength Monday's💥

Strengthen the foundation that supports every yoga pose. This focused Glutes & Core class is designed to build stability, balance, and power in the muscles that matter most for a strong and sustainable yoga practice.

from .health.fitness gave us a fab strength class this week💜 Thanks Aimee😘

After a brief warm up we had 4 stations of different activities. Working in pairs and alternating the exercises, we rotated around all 4 stations. Aimee supported and encouraged us, correcting our technique or adapting the exercise where necessary.

As the endorphins kicked in I got noticeably mischevious. There was definately a naughty corner😂

Finished FULL of energy💥

With a small class size of 8, Aimee is able to look after all our individual needs🥰

Aimee Purgal from APT Health & Fitness did a fab strength class this morning💜 Thanks Aimee😘

After a brief warm up we had 4 stations of different activities, working in pairs and alternating the exercises (core, glutes, quads and hammies focus in this class). We rotated around all 4 stations. Aimee supported and encouraged us, correcting our technique where necessary.

As the endorphins kicked in I got noticeably mischevious. There was definately a naughty corner😂

Finished FULL of energy and needing a shower.

Even little Toby was a star, sleeping through the entire event🤩

Aimee thinks we can get another 2 people in, the more the merrier😃 I will increase the class size to 8 for next week.

So many sparks of new potential shooting off right now, do you feel that too? It may be winter outside but its pretty joyful in the Synthesis Yoga Studio!

NEW for 2026 Strength Monday's with talented rehab PT Aimee Purgal from APT Health & Fitness, who just happens to be my daughter✨️💜💥

Come and join Aimee on a Monday at 9.30am in the yoga studio in Grouville. Strengthen the foundation that supports your yoga. This focused Glutes & Core class is designed to build stability, balance, and power in the muscles that matter most for a strong and sustainable practice. Strengthening the glutes, hips, and core, also supports healthier movement patterns that can reduce strain on the knees and hips. It will provide the essential strength work that my softening into the body and soothing the nervous system may not always address.

I currently have 1 space left for Monday 12th drop in during January through this link https://www.wixforms.com/f/7411011580793455617

It is in the darkest moment of the Winter Solstice that the Summer Solstice is born.

The darkness is the place of great mystery in all wisdom traditions. If we are willing to release what is no longer serving us to the darkness, we find the luminosity; insights and wisdom that will lead us on our path to value, meaning & purpose. Our soul's path. We discover that there is pure potential in the emptiness of the dark void. We face a death that feeds a birth of new potential. Potential that is always there within us.

Join Kat Milner from Womens Wellbeing Jersey and me, Sarah Howard, for this magical mini yoga retreat where we will reconnect to our body, nature and the playful spark of the festive season.

3 hours of yoga, mindfulness, breathwork and discussion (if you want to), in women's circle. A depth embodiment experience. You will leave feeling enlightened, relaxed and more integrated.

Reclaim sovereignty over your feeling states, the chemistry of your nervous system and the energetic frequency you emit. At this wild edge of evolution there is joy & excitement, the spark of something new.



Dear Synthesis Yoga Community! Regular weekly yoga classes in the yoga studio end this week, but the final Synthesis event for 2025 is the Winter Solstice Yurt Yoga Retreat for women on Saturday 20th December 2pm to 5pm. Learn to reclaim sovereignty over your feeling states, the chemistry of your ne...

***Update: NOW FULL***
Generations of economic stability have separated us from the cycles and rhythms of nature. We have forgotten how to autumn and winter. We have forgotten about the connection of our body to the earth. Our daily lives are becoming more stressful due to economic and climate changes out of our control. We don't know how to respond. There are no logical fixes to the global chaos. We have to move with this powerful force and open the door to personal and systemic transformation. Autumn and wintering is a process of grief. A natural way to detox, release, and move through change.

The new moon in Scorpio is exact on Thursday 20th November. We will be gathering in the yoga studio on Monday 17th November at 7.30pm just as the moon is moving into Scorpio. The very beginnings of the new moon phase for November. The energies of this new moon are powerful. Supporting us to listen in, feel the discomfort in our body, shed old patterns through compassion, forgiveness and acceptance. Igniting our free will choice to recognise our value and self-worth. This new moon is a rite of passage into feeling safe and grounded in our body, in our relationships and in our daily lives.

In this 90-minute session we will be moving with ta***ic goddess Tara. Tara means star. We will track her shakti infused energy of compassion and truth through our body, shedding old patterns, like a snake sheds its outgrown skin. The yoga will take place in a circle of women. We will use energy practices and discussion to support us to illuminate and drop attachments to our identity.

My work at Synthesis encourages us back into our body, emotions and energy field. Reconnecting to nature through our senses. The nervous system is of key importance in the process. Soothing, calming and unpacking the trauma that we hold within our entire body. A somatic approach is central, but that combined with talking and coaching facilitates empowerment through activation of willpower.

We will use the vibe of this new moon to reflect, release, and prioritise actions for the next 28-day cycle of change.

12/11/2025

🧘‍♀️ In this 90-minute session we will be fusing our yoga with Goddess Tara. Tara means star. We will track her shakti, free will, infused energy of compassion and truth through our body, shedding old patterns, like a snake sheds its outgrown skin.

Our Story

Synthesis hosts discovery for change within a framework of Evolutionary Leadership. Its evolved in an organic and integrative way over three decades of the founders professional training, commercial experience, personal journeying, and determination to become authentic and whole. We are all leaders in some aspect of our daily lives, and in these roles we are facing huge challenges. We are at a unique turning point in the history of humanity where old systems are breaking down through external challenges beyond our control, including political conflicts, acts of terrorism, natural disasters, inequality in private asset ownership, the decline in natural resources and the disruption of ecosystems through industrial pollution. We are all impacted by these external forces in our personal and working lives. This breakdown is part of a natural order in any complex system making way for a new paradigm to emerge. We are at a point of global transformation, a chaotic and seemingly unstable place, however within the chaos there is a new order waiting to be perceived.

Synthesis provides a supportive holding environment for you to unpack, understand and integrate the whole of yourself in everything that you do. Through this process you will find innovative solutions to problems providing stepping stones toward transformation. Whether your leadership role is large or small, within a corporate, family or group environment, Synthesis has a track record of supporting your change goals.

Sarah Howard

Sarah brings logic, enthusiasm and creativity in a collaborative approach that provide the essential elements of true innovation. She has decades of top level commercial experience combined with a unique robustness in the softer, more fluid aspects of change.
