Soothing the System

Soothing the System is a deeply restorative two-hour workshop combining gentle mindful movement, breathwork, guided self-touch, heart coherence, Reiki and guided visualisation.

Modern life can feel like we always have too much to do, leaving us feeling almost constantly activated or alert. Even when we finally stop, the body and nervous system do not always immediately know how to settle. This can affect our mood, our sleep and our ability to simply enjoy our lives moment to moment.

This workshop offers a gentle opportunity to step out of the busyness of everyday life and reconnect with the body's natural capacity for rest, regulation and restoration.

The session follows a carefully considered arc, gradually guiding you from movement and physical awareness towards deeper states of stillness, regulation and inner experience. Each practice builds on the one before it, moving progressively through the body, breath and mind, before opening into a deeply relaxing guided visualisation that works with the deeper layers of your experience.

The practices are gentle and accessible, with no previous experience required.

Each session begins with an opportunity to arrive, settle and connect with yourself.

We'll then move through gentle mindful movement to release tension, bring awareness into the body and give the busy thinking mind an opportunity to quieten.

Next, we'll explore a series of soothing breathwork practices, using the breath to support the nervous system and encourage a greater sense of calm and relaxation.

The breathwork is followed by guided self-touch practices, exploring simple ways of offering the body a sense of comfort, safety, containment and support. Touch is not necessary for the session, and different options are offered throughout, so you can adapt the practices or simply rest as feels right for you.

We then move into an extended heart-coherence breathing practice — a settling and restorative experience that creates space for the body and mind to become quieter, more present and more connected.

During this part of the session, optional Reiki is offered. You may choose hands-on Reiki, hands-off Reiki, or simply rest.

We'll then move into a more restful state through a guided visualisation, drawing on Jasmin's professional training in hypnotherapy to deepen and embed the sense of rest and safety cultivated throughout the session. Through suggestion, imagery and exploration of your inner experience, the journey supports integration and positive shifts that can continue beyond the session.

We'll finish with tea and snacks, with time to share your experience if you wish — or simply remain quiet, continue resting and take your time coming back.

One of the intentions behind Soothing the System is not simply to offer two hours of relaxation, but to introduce you to simple practices that you can continue using in your everyday life.

Many people find these practices particularly helpful when they feel stressed, overwhelmed or irritable during the day, when winding down in the evening, preparing for sleep, or when waking in the night with a busy mind.

"Aaah thanks, Jasmin. It was such a great session. You are an incredible therapist. I get so much from your sessions. It's put me in good stead for managing the children over the holidays”

Each Soothing the System session explores a different theme, such as Home, Expansion, Compassion, Peace or Returning.

The movement, breathwork, self-touch and guided visualisation are all shaped around that theme, creating a unique experience each month and offering new practices, perspectives and insights to explore.

Give yourself two hours to settle, reset and soothe your system.
