We help our clients to journey beyond the physical, solid state of our beliefs and patterns and to step into a potent inner world of energy, potential and alchemy - to literally re-connect to the magic and juice. To re-learn to soften into our organic rhythm; to taste the possibility of living from a stiller centre; to find a deepening love and self-governance and in turn this gentle evolution spirals softly outwards to each other + beyond.
Our evolving journey is life-long, there are no spiritual quick fixes and nothing on the outside to chase - it all starts + ends by re-connecting to the intimacy of our inner worlds.

METHODOLOGY

connect, align, evolve
to build a maturing inner awareness state that brings us to wise thinking, wise feeling, wise action

no fixed state
to begin to understand ourselves as energetic beings that are in a constant state of flux and change rather than solid + fixed and as the macro so the micro

to open to our soft space
the intuitive soft and tender spaces within ourselves to bring balance, wisdom, creativity and grace back to our lives.

to get to know stillness
tp learn + trust the body's innate natural wisdom when we drop back into its rhythm and step out of 'doing', 'action', 'striving' energies

to soften the grip
to learn to live in the rhythm + cadence of our lives. To begin to see the dance of relationship we fall into and how to navigate ourselves with love, presence, grace.

Jane Kersel
Master yogi body-mind-heart energetics
"A happiness guru: Jane's yoga is therapy in itself, she can overcome a racing brain in one meditative session" - Francesca White - Tatler Magazine
Her work is dedicated to the power of teaching wiser thinking, wiser feeling and wiser being - a heart head revolution which creates wiser relating to ourselves and others. She helps clients to integrate the polarities that lie deep in shadow within, to love and to honour their feelings, to train their minds to choose better and higher thoughts to provoke joy, passion and creativity and to look inwards rather than outwards for structure and understanding. Her mantra is with a flexible, strong, elegant mind, heart and body, you are free at any age. Health through all of the layers is our true wealth.
Guests on The Big Pause meet Jane as their host and through the teaching and learning of a daily yoga/meditation practice and privately (which can take several forms: with all paths leading to a gentle yet deep ploughing of the sub-conscious, a release of old patterns and energy and the reformation of new strengths and creative spaces in the psyche and soul). Sometimes her work also tracks significant dreams and the symbolism therein.
Jane’s training and expertise includes: hypnotherapy, embodied movement, yoga (kundalini, vinyasa, Iyengar) breathing practices, psycho-spirituality, shadow work + couple work.

Natalia + Elizabeth
Healing Arts Practitioners
Natalia’s bodywork has evolved into a unique body-mind centred intuitive style that draws from the wisdom of Reiki, Lomi Lomi, Deep Tissue Massage, Chi Nei Tsang (abdominal massage), acupressure and Indian Head Massage. .
Elizabeth is our wonderful Spanish osteopath who specialises in re-alignment issues, cranial osteopathy + deep tissue massage. Our team are highly intuitive, they listen to the client speaking whilst simultaneously listening to the underlying body dialogue and use a highly refined sense of touch to identify any restricted, weak or mis-aligned areas of the body-mind continuum. So whether a client comes with back pain, injuries, scar tissue, joint pain, digestive disorders, poor breathing (and therefore impaired oxygen up-take) etc. we meet them where they are at.

HORSE SENSING + playing
with Ester + Marina
Horses + riding are beautiful areas to explore + deepen our relationship to trust, intuitive embodied moving + silent thinking/sensing.
The addition of our horses enriches our work encouraging us to feel into how we relate, communicate and embody a softer, stronger intuitive strength. Many of our clients don't ride, don't wish to ride, however by the end of the week they truly don't want to leave their horse behind.
It's not about how 'good' you ride or how 'un-keen' you may be to try - it's all about being surrounded by our four legged friends and just watching them play.
When not on our Big Pause Journeys Ester and Marina can be found at their riding academy in Cordoba where they teach young disabled children and adults to ride whilst also competing themselves in major dressage events.
