Seasonal motherhood wellbeing workshops in East Devon
Our next event is on Saturday 11 July 2026 at Kiva & Zen Studio, Topsham
Pause. Restore. Grow. is a series of seasonal motherhood wellbeing workshops hosted at Kiva & Zen Studio in Topsham, East Devon.
The format is a half-day morning workshop for reflection, gentle yoga and pilates based movement and psychologically supported journaling and intention-setting for the season ahead.
It is co-hosted by two women’s health professionals: Belinda Gidman-Rowse (Counsellor & Psychotherapist, Grow Psychotherapy) and Nancy Osborne (Physiotherapist, Yoga & Pilates Instructor).
We are mothers and we are both passionate about supporting other mothers during this time of matrescence, transition and emotional and spiritual growth.
We invite mothers and carers at all stages of their motherhood journey to join us. Babes in arms / under one are welcome.
We know personally how much connecting with the seasons helps us to become grounded through the challenges of motherhood and this is why we have chosen to theme our sessions with the changing seasons.
We hope you will come back for each seasonal check-in with yourself and others to help you on your motherhood journey.

What to expect:
-
Our events prioritize comfort, psychological safety, compassion and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process. As we are all mums we totally understand life with little ones - do feel free to bring your baby if they are still in arms/under one (ish).
-
Led by experienced guides (Belinda Gidman-Rowse and Nancy Osborne) who know how to hold space using the pillars of psychological safety, encourage participation, and provide a warm, welcoming space.
-
We will weave in elements of matrescence, seasonal and cyclical living to each of our sessions to bring us all into deeper awareness of our internal and external seasons which are both deeply personal and also part of the collective experience.
-
Nancy Osborne (Women’s health physiotherapist and yoga/pilates Instructor) will offer a seasonally aligned gentle, restorative movement session to (re)connect you wtih your body that draws on postures from yoga and pilates to stretch and strengthen.
-
Psychologically supported creative journalling (hosted by Belinda Gidman-Rowse, Counsellor & Psychotherapist) to help you reveal what changes you may need to make, what to let go of and what to nourish in the season ahead. This will draw on a range of therapeutic modalities and activities suitable for the group.
-
Nancy Osborne (Yoga/Pilates Instructor) will offer a guided seasonal meditation and breathwork segment each session to relax your nervous system and bring you into connection with your mind-body awareness.
