Simplistic

Keeping it...

We've made wellness so complicated, haven't we? With so many strange hacks, strict regimes, and contradictory advise, trying to feel good can start to feel like a mind field. Add techy booking systems, apps, trackers, and confusing subscriptions, and your mind can feel full before you even get to the mindfulness practice. Around here, we're bringing it right back to the basics. Connection. Movement. Nature.  Just simple, wholesome, grounding practices that help you reconnect with yourself and the world around you.

YOGA IN THE WOODS

INTO THE WILD 

What if your yoga class didn’t end at the mat? What if it wandered into the woods, softened with sunlight through trees, soaked in the sound of birdsong? Join me at Into The Wild for an evening Vinyasa class in a gorgeous woodland teepee or dome, followed by herbal tea and a chat. Suitable for all levels. 

​

Every Thursday, 6:30 - 7:30 pm
Into The Wild, Ashley, near Altrincham & Hale
£14 per class
All levels welcome

What Is Forest Therapy?

Also known as Shinrin-Yoku or forest bathing, forest therapy is a guided sensory walk followed by a series of mindfulness practices in nature designed to calm your nervous system and bring a sense of presence and connection. Each session is followed by tea and a 'check in', where I hold space for the therapeutic work of nature.

 

An Embodied Experience

Through gentle guidance, you’ll be offered simple invitations to notice, feel, and connect with your surroundings. No agenda, no thinking, no forcing - just bathing the senses and seeing what surfaces. 
 

Backed By Science
Forest therapy is a recognised form of complementary and integrative  medicine. I’m currently training with Light Box, a CMA-accredited organisation that bridges science, theory, and embodied practice, to deliver 1:1 and small group forest therapt sessions in the near future.

​

Rooted in Respect 
These walks honour both the land and your inner landscape. Whether we’re in the peaks or a city park, the aim is the same: to leave you feeling grounded, nourished, and deeply connected.

​

Small group and 1:1 sessions coming soon- enquire now for training-price sessions !

Testimonials 

9C88FB7B-1E99-4414-A76B-B6CFDCB39355.jpeg

What I love most about Heather as a yoga teacher is her ability to tune into each student's individual needs. It made the classes I took with her very individualistic and accessible. 

​

When it comes to communication she is always there as a listening eat and a great sounding board - yoga, breath-work, and beyond. My heart is always and a bit lighter after a class or chat with Heather.
