What is 'The Pause'
The Pause is a small-group, half-day experience designed to help you step out of constant busyness and reconnect with a calmer, more settled rhythm.
Set in the peaceful surroundings of the New Forest, this session offers space to slow down, understand your nervous system and experience simple embodied practices that support true rest.
What to expect
You’ll be guided through a blend of education, gentle practices, and time in nature.
You’ll learn why switching off can feel difficult and how to support your nervous system so rest becomes more restorative and you feel more resilient in daily life.
The experience includes:
• A simple introduction to the nervous system
• Guided practices to settle body and mind
• Tools you can use in everyday life
• Time outdoors in the forest (weather permitting)
• A supportive small-group environment
This is not about doing more.
It’s about giving your system the space it needs to slow down.
Who this is for
This session is for you if you:
• Struggle to switch off after work
• Feel “tired but wired”
• Find it hard to relax, even with time to rest
• Are curious about your nervous system
• Want simple, practical tools to support your wellbeing
No prior experience needed.
What you’ll leave with
By the end, you’ll have:
• A clearer understanding of your nervous system
• Simple, practical tools (including audios)
• A felt sense of your body beginning to settle
• Time and space to pause and reconnect

"A wonderful blend of science, nurture and nature, Neena's 'The Pause' was just what I needed. Lots of lovely learning and pointers for personal growth. A super group of carefully curated women too, so it felt natural, supportive and authentic. Recommended. I will be back for another theme for sure."
Astrid - Consultant
"The Pause gave me an opportunity to start applying practices that I often talk about at work and with my clients to myself.
Having dedicated time and space to slow down allowed important realisations to come forward that I can now take steps to change.
A wonderful setting, a lovely group and a truly worthwhile pause that reminded me of the importance of restoration."
Tina, Lawyer
"The Pause' gave me just that; a moment to take stock, to sit in nature and appreciate it, to understand how my nervous system is wired and what I ask of it and, most importantly, to change.
You never think of rest as something you need to learn to do, but 'Busy=Important=Value' has become hardwired in my system and ironically I realise I need to work hard at finding genuine rest.
An informative, relaxing and enjoyable day. I returned home both relaxed and energised as well as full after Neena's very delicious lunch!"
Jacqui, Solicitor
The Pause was magical!
Interacting with breathwork and relaxation in a different way has been really helpful.
Also just taking the time to actually relax after a particularly tough 5 months has been just the tonic I needed.
