JOIN THE SOFTENING

As the nights draw in, there is an invitation to focus inwards and connect deeper with ourselves. Our bodies are asking to slow down and soften. The Softening is five Tuesday evenings of slow, feminine guided movement and rest to settle your nervous system, melt what you’ve been carrying, and bring you back home to yourself.

November 10th - December 8th 2026

Tuesdays 8 - 9.30PM on Zoom

WHAT’S INCLUDED

  • 5 x 1.5 hr live Zoom sessions with a group of women

  • Recordings and playlists sent after each session

  • 1 x 45 min 1:1 call with Anouk, a private space to be heard and guided

  • Access to a library of short somatic practices until late-Jan

  • You’re holding a lot of tension in your body and you’d like to soften

  • You want to slow down but don’t know where to start

What we’ll do

The Five Week Journey

Week 1: Soften the armour

  • Unwind what you’ve been holding. Let your fascia soften and your body remember how to melt..

Week 2: Return to your own energy 

  • Discover the power of your own limits. Learn the language of your own yes and no and come back into your own energy.

Week 3: Move through the mud

  • Make room for the feelings you’ve been holding back. Let what’s heavy move through you, slowly and expressively.

Week 4: Re-ignite the creative river 

  • Let desire, play, and creativity flow again.

Week 5: Melt into pleasure

  • Let your body be a place of warmth, sweetness, and ease.

About Anouk

Hi, I’m Anouk, a somatic life and career coach, trained in leadership and embodiment coaching.

I walk alongside sensitive, ambitious women who are ready to reconnect with their body’s wisdom and stop overriding their own needs. My work is trauma-informed and led by the nervous system, with slow, feminine somatic practices to help women come home to themselves. When we slow down and soften, our capacity for confidence, creativity and aliveness grows.

I live in East London with my partner, two daughters, and our puppy - and I love cycling, dancing, and long, soul-nourishing conversations.

  • “Anouk guided us gently through discussion, somatic movement and creative exercises, encouraging us to tap into our curiosity and wisdom. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is looking for an invitation to slow down, be in their body and reconnect with their curiosity. Helping us to get better at ‘being’ rather than ‘doing’."

    Kata, former group participant

  • "Anouk's Somatic Reconnections Sessions were a powerful combination of the thinking and philosophy of her approach and practical exercises to get into, listen to and soothe your body and mind. I've come away equipped with techniques to navigate life's challenges honestly and compassionately and had some fun along the way."

    Juliet, former group participant

  • “I would really recommend Anouk's group container, I've recommended it to friends and would definitely do it again! I loved the combination of somatic practices and creative exercises in the sessions, and the warm and supportive space that Anouk created for us.”

    Jen, former group participant
