Monthly Deep Rest Practices ~ Private Podcast ~ Community ~
Healing against the hustle culture & rewriting the story that we need "to do it all".
We are moving towards deeply craving living life that feels full but without the overwhelm of doing more. We are seeking spaces to slow down, to give ourselves rest and reconnect to our own self. Living in a society that constantly bids for our attention with the messages of not fast enough, not doing enough & not having enough - going against the grain can feel incredibly challenging, lonely & rebellious.
​
This is a place to feel deeply supported on your journey of reclaiming living life at your own pace. Bringing guided rest practices to the comfort of your own bed, every single month & conversations to your ears to feel less alone in the journey of choosing a life of less is more.
You must rest.
​and all at once
they feel into a deep sleep.
all the tired women
that lived inside her.

Slow Lane is a place for busy bodies & tired minds to receive deep rest.
A place for you to be held & supported through guided rest practices that allow for safety, regulation and softening. When we live in such fast paced rhythms, it can take time to feel safe in slowing down and resting, but with enough practice and support it is possible. When the body feels safe, the body will naturally meet rest.
​
The beautiful part of each monthly practice is that you can be in the comfort of your own home & even better, you're own bed. Florence guides a blend of somatic experiences to tend to you as a WHOLE being not just the physical. Moving through sensory, yoga nidra meditation, visualisation, body sensing, music and silence.
​
Each deep rest practice we will move with a monthly intention that speaks to parts of our body, our human needs, womanhood and relationship to self.
You are not bad at resting, your body just hasn't felt safe to do so.
Our bodies hold memories. So much more than our minds. And when we realise this we begin to learn that to take care of ourselves, means taking REAL care of our bodies.
​
We hold innate wisdom within and yet we live in such a noisy world that we can often not hear ourselves. Through the incredible ancient practice of Yoga Nidra Meditation, Somatic bodywork, breath practice and unhurried moments we are able to reclaim this wisdom.
​
Each monthly rest session you are guided to reconnect back to your body in a soft, gentle and healing way. Through the practice of experiencing true intentional moments of slowing down we begin to create safety within our bodies.
​
Yoga Nidra is the practice of bringing deep awareness to our physical, mental and energetic bodies through comfort, breath and guidance. It is believed that just 45 minutes of yoga nidra meditation can feel like 4 hours of sleep! I can not think of anywhere more in need of this deep rest than Mothers. And while it isn't practiced to put you to sleep, this does happen often and is so common because we are SO tired. The more we practice though, we begin to experience this space of bliss which in in between waking and sleep where your body is so deeply relaxed it feels asleep but your mind is still awake and conscious. In this bliss state so much restoration and healing happens all the way down to the cellular level.
​​
This is why women will often sit up in Rest Classes and feel completely like a new person, because you are.
​
When we take care of the mothers, we take care of the babies & their homes.
Why every Mother needs to experience the magic of Yoga Nidra:
​Not only is it a completely lying down practice it also helps to...​
​
-
Replenishes depleted energy: Yoga Nidra gives mums deep, restorative rest that feels like hours of sleep in minutes.
-
Reduces overwhelm: It instantly calms the nervous system, helping mothers shift out of constant “fight-or-flight” mode.
-
Supports emotional balance: The practice provides space to process big feelings, preventing irritability and burnout.
-
Improves sleep quality: Even if nights are interrupted by kids, Yoga Nidra helps mothers fall asleep faster and rest more deeply.
-
Eases mom-guilt and mental load: It quiets racing thoughts and offers mental clarity when juggling endless responsibilities.
-
Strengthens patience and presence with your babies: By regulating stress, it helps mums respond—not react—to their children.
-
Restores identity and self-connection: It gives mothers a much needed moment to reconnect with their own needs, intuition, and inner calm.

The details & how things work
Monthly live rest practice
Each month we gather online for our guided rest practice. Each month we look to a theme and our rest practice supports this. These sessions will go for a duration of 75 minutes. You don't need anything other than a quiet space to lay down, blanket for warmth and pillow for comfort. All rest practice sessions are recorded and made available for you to replay as many times as you need.
Ongoing Membership
This community is open for you to join us at anytime, because rest is not a one time thing, it is a forever need and practice. Wherever you are in your journey of Rest, The Slow Lane is a potent support for you to gently invite more moments of slow, rest & time inwards.
What happens on the LIVE rest practices
These sessions are completely guided and gentle. We will begin always will a grounding and soft breath practice, then we lay down for the guided yoga nidra rest practice & followed by unwinding and returning/waking up. We will have an oracle card pull at the end of the session as well as time to reflect before we close.
Private podcast access
Within your membership you will have free access to a private podcast. All the recording audios will be uploaded into here so you can access them with ease. There will also be monthly podcast episodes dropped throughout the month sharing mini meditations, personal stories, deeply inspiring and insightful conversations with women, energy readings & rest reminders.
Rest Community
Your membership will also include joining our Membership Community Chat group. A place to meet like minded women, ask questions and share in meaningful conversations. This group is held on Telegram and the link will be invited to you upon joining.
Adding on the Seasonal Rest Toolbox
If you are wanting to bring some more rest support into your toolbox, you can also add on the Rest Tools bundle which will delivered to you for self soothing, regulation and deeper rest. Things like a self development book, Essential Oils, Handpoured Candles, Eye Pillow, Cacao and more. These are tools I use in every in person class & so if you'd like to add to your experience this bundle is the perfect addition. *This is not included in the normal monthly membership fee*

Meet Florence
As someone who deeply craved a place to simply take off hats, turn down the noise for a moment and just be, The Slow Lane has truly come from my own desire of reclaiming my own pace & honouring it. I have been holding Rest Experiences for women for the past 5 years both in person and online as classes, workshops and Retreats. I have met women 100's of women now who have felt the call to hop off the hamster wheel. I hope The Slow Lane meets you in that craving of a life that feels full, but with less noise.
