What if softening wasn’t a weakness, but your way back to resilience, creativity, and trust?

When the nervous system is regulated, the body softens. Muscles release, the breath deepens, and we return to a state where connection and healing are possible.

‘The Art of Softening’ is a 3-week online journey to slow down, release tension, and restore your system - and your spirit.

In this 3-week online course, you’ll learn to unwind the ‘always on’ pattern, soothe your nervous system, and return to a grounded sense of ease.

Each week includes guided somatic practices, journaling prompts, and gentle reflection to help you reconnect to your body’s natural rhythms and rest without guilt.

What you’ll learn:

Through nervous system regulation, somatic movement, and guided journaling, you’ll learn to:

  • Listen to your body’s signals with compassion

Meet your guide, Hannah

I’ve created The Art of Softening as a space to practice what I, too, keep learning; how to rest without guilt, listen to the body’s wisdom, and move through life with softness.

I’d love to share this journey with you!
