Yoga, Creativity & the Felt Sense

Somatic wisdom & creative alchemy for mental & physical well-being — with Susanna Edwards & Alison McNaught.

Four 3-hour workshops over four consecutive Mondays  ·  2–5pm  ·  £550 per person

In our fast-paced, head-driven world, we so often seek answers through thought. But what if the deepest insights and most profound healing lie not in our minds, but within the wisdom of our own bodies?

This is a deep dive into exploring your felt sense and processing through yoga and creativity. Tuning in — floor-based yoga, stretching, stillness, breathwork and meditation. In the flow — journaling prompts, drawing, painting and mark-making. Shifting — from thinking to feeling, observing and creating.

Meet your facilitators

Together, Susanna and Alison guide a series of transformative online workshops where you’ll learn to tap into your inner sanctuary through the powerful combination of somatic practice and creative expression. This unique collaboration brings together broad skill sets across psychology, yoga and creativity for a beautifully holistic experience. Across four weekly workshops you’ll quiet the mental chatter, connect with your body’s innate intelligence, and unlock a pathway to self-discovery, emotional release and profound well-being — exploring how feeling safe in your body allows you to drop inside, to feel held and supported, and to listen more deeply.

the practice

What you’ll experience & learn

  • Gentle somatic connection — how Yin and Restorative Yoga help you soften, yield and let go, creating the conditions for inner exploration.
  • Accessing your inner landscape — tuning into your body’s non-verbal language: the sensations, images and feelings that arise when you suspend conscious thought.
  • The power of felt sense — understanding these visceral messages as metaphors and symbols waiting to be decoded, leading to release, recalibration and transformation.
  • Creative enquiry as a healing tool — spontaneous writing and visual processing to integrate your inner experiences, build new narratives and foster self-compassion.
  • Practical tools for daily well-being — insights and practices to keep connecting to your inner world and down-regulating your nervous system.

Who this is for

This workshop is ideal for anyone with a busy life and mind who is seeking a deeper emotional connection, who finds it hard to make time or space to be present with themselves, or who is curious about a more holistic approach to well-being through body awareness and creative expression. You may be a healthcare or wellness practitioner developing new approaches to processing and integration, or an individual wishing to experience deeper body awareness and new methods of self-enquiry. No prior yoga or art experience is necessary — just an open heart and a willingness to explore. Your creative outputs don’t need to look finished, make sense, or be “artistic”; it’s the process of translating the felt sense into words, images and marks that matters.

Although Alison is an integrative therapist, this is not a counselling workshop. We won’t be encouraging thinking or seeking answers — instead we create a safe space to drop into present-moment awareness and the felt sense, to down-regulate the nervous system, and to shift from doing into being, exploring this creatively, without judgement and with self-compassion. Things may surface, but we won’t be deep-diving into problem-solving, and we’ll share signposting if you’d like further support. If you are experiencing severe symptoms of anxiety, grief or depression, we recommend seeking support from your GP and other services (see our Resources page) and joining us another time once you have the support you need.
