“Close your eyes and follow your breath to the still place that leads to the invisible path that leads you home.”
– St. Teresa of Avila 16th century

Soul Journey to Inner Peace – welcome to my website
I specialise in creating a community for women seeking soul connection and sanctuary from the demands of a busy, stressful or challenging life. I offer safe, lovingly held sacred spaces where you can experience deep rest, relaxation, soul nourishment and stillness. A place where you can completely let go, de-stress, become yourself again and begin to connect with the loving wisdom, internal guidance and spiritual authority of your own soul.
The venue is the dedicated sacred space of my Studio in Epsom. I offer Tuesday evenings that create a sense of community where we can all completely relax, experience guided meditation and soul nourishment as we let go of the anxieties and stresses of your life. The Studio is located in our lovely garden, next to our home, all of which becomes a sacred space for Saturday morning workshops, soul journey courses and day retreats. And in May 2025 I will once again be offering a small retreat based in our extraordinary flat located on a cliff above a beautiful beach in North Cornwall.

What people have said about working with Gillian
About Gillian
My meditation practice has kept me sane! Relaxation and meditation, in all their many forms, create the steeping stones through my chaotic emotional and mental life, safely delivering me to the doorway of inner stillness, wisdom and guidance.
I now recognise this stillness within my body as the bridge to my soul and to the Divine. In this place I ‘know’ my soul, I listen to its gentle voice of wisdom and guidance, and I am often overwhelmed by feelings of compassion, connection, awe and gratitude.
Since I first discovered my meditative pathway, I have felt drawn to create safe and sacred spaces where I could guide and support women to find their own pathway through deep rest, relaxation, acceptance of, kindness towards and reconnection with their own body slowly revealing the bridge to their soul.
The Labyrinth
Walking the labyrinth can represent a personal pilgrimage, and be an opportunity to slowly and meditatively explore personal and spiritual matters. Alternatively, it can be used as a way to help us ‘unwind the mind’ and to let go of stress or worries.
A labyrinth is not a maze with multiple paths, but rather a single path from the entrance to the center.
Walking a labyrinth with an open heart and an open mind, there are many different approaches that can be taken. If you choose to walk with an intention, it is up to you what you choose to focus upon. It will likely depend on where you are in your life and what questions, concerns or goals you may have in the moment.
