The Rooted Heart Path
4-Month Group Maturation Container
A unique and powerful experience walking the Rooted Heart Path.
We, Brenda and Ria are going to hold space for you to journey through the layers of your being, back home to your sacred womb space, the softness of your heart and the authentic expression of your voice.
Your authentic Self.
Your Home.
This group programme is designed to bring you back to your sacred body. Reconnecting you to your womb-heart-voice and to what’s really here. From this place you can become familiar with how past experiences and trauma is frozen in your body and simultaneously has created a story in your mind. By becoming intimate with what is held in your body and mind you can begin to become more and more aware of the story that is present in your life. This story creates patterns and cycles that are keeping you stuck. Where problems seem unsolvable. This work is not about fixing the problem, but about outgrowing the story.
“The Womb-Heart holds your deepest innocence; the tenderness of your feminine self that rests in stillness and silence at the centre of your Womb. When you open the Womb-Heart, you awaken the beautifully feminine, gentle, embracing river of love flowing through the Womb. It is the essence of a woman that is like soft petals, flowering in the tenderness at her centre, completely still and present. It is a giving energy that bathes a woman with a soft glow, making her radiant and enchanting. It is the innocence always open to love, even in the darkest hour. Awakening this energy begins to call in your twin soul, taking you deep into surrender and the potential for deep, loving sacred relationships and self-love. ”
Meet your programme Coaches
Brenda Hardy
I am a chartered physiotherapist (BSc Hons) specialising in trauma and pelvic health, an
acupuncturist, pilates teacher and the founder of Health Connects, a health and well-being
charity.
After my foundational training as a physio, I became curious about bringing about a deeper level
of healing for my clients, unravelling the root cause of their symptoms and suffering.
In my desire to help others, I discovered that I was required to look deeply at myself, and so
began a profound journey of inner healing, guided by my mentor Emma Reicher. This led me to
train to become a Maturation Coach with Nicky Clinch in 2022.
I now offer a unique blend of
BodyMind practices in both 1:1 and group settings. I care deeply about supporting human beings
to live fully and love deeply.

What is Maturation coaching?
Maturation Coaching is providing you with a space to be with and see how trauma and past experiences are frozen in your body while simultaneously held as memories in your mind. Maturation is not about making you feel better or fixing you, but inviting you to bring awareness to the story you are telling yourself about who you are and what life is. Through feeling, leaning into your experience, becoming intimate with your unique story and by befriending the unknown, real freedom becomes possible.
What is Yin Yoga?
Yin Yoga is a form of yoga where we hold gentle poses for longer times, up to 5min. It creates stillness where you can feel and integrate emotions, regulating your nervous system. The gift of Ying Yoga is giving you time with yourself - so that you can really surrender and connect to your own wisdom. The teaching style will be in connection to the traditional Chinese medicine five elements theory - water, tree, fire, earth and metal.
What is a bodymind Meditation?
In this meditation we are inviting you onto a journey inwards. You will be safely held and guided through voice, music & drum to explore what is rising within. You are beginning to listen to the whole of you, welcoming what is communicated to you through sensations, emotions & thought processes. This process allows you to bring seeing to where you hold stagnation or are stuck in habitual patterns that block your life flow. In the meeting of your core beliefs, and the conscious being with, you are able to step into space beyond the grip of the mind. From here you can create the possibility to outgrow these patterns and return to thriving.
What is the Rooted Heart Path?
We will hold space for you to walk the path from your roots, through your sacred womb, your heart and voice. Allowing what has been supressed to rise and be felt: guilt, shame, sadness, grief, anger, self-judgement, mistrust of self and other women, resistance of the masculine. In the space that opens up, connect to your sacred truth and wisdom. Meet everything on the path with curiosity and compassion and return to deeper levels of Love, in all forms: friendship, lovers, the deep Love of Life Itself.
What is going to await me at the in-person days?
Exact teachings & details may differ, depending on the current element we will be moving through & the deep listening to what is needed in the space.
10:30am Arrival
Upon arrival, we will be welcomed into our serene Countryside Home, nestled among the trees and woodlands of rural County Antrim. You'll have time to settle in with a warm cup of tea and nourishing snacks, before we head to the studio space, which offers magnificent views of the surrounding nature.
11:00am - Opening Ceremony
As we move into the beautifully prepared studio, you’ll find a relaxing atmosphere filled with the gentle glow of candles and the soothing scent of roses. This space is designed to allow you to release tension and connect deeply with yourself.
We will begin by setting our intentions for the day, followed by a ritual to mark the start of this transformative journey.
11:15am - Yin Yoga and BodyMind Meditation
Brenda will guide you through a gentle Yin Yoga practice, inviting you to explore the layers of protection around your heart and become present with whatever is held there. Following this, Ria will lead a BodyMind Meditation, connecting you to the landscape of your womb. You'll be invited to sense what is present, ask what is needed, and offer nurturing. This meditation will be accompanied by a shamanic drum experience, helping you travel into the deeper layers of your being.
12:00pm - 1:00pm BodyMind Maturation Coaching
We’ll then gather back in the studio to create a nurturing women’s circle, where Ria and Brenda will co-lead 1:1 BodyMind Maturation Coaching. This session offers a safe space to explore how past trauma and experiences are held in the body and mind. Rather than "fixing" you, this practice encourages you to bring awareness to the stories you tell yourself about who you are and how life is. Through feeling into your experiences and embracing the unknown, true freedom and growth become possible.

Why are we offering this programme:
We created the Rooted Heart Path to help you reconnect with your body, spirit, and true essence. In today’s fast-paced world, it’s easy to lose touch with yourself and become trapped in habits and beliefs that no longer serve you. This program offers a way to break free from those patterns and rediscover the wholeness within.
Our goal is to guide you in identifying and understanding the root causes of the challenges that have been holding you back. By bringing awareness to these deeper layers, you can begin to release them, opening up space for personal growth and new possibilities.
We provide a safe, supportive environment for you to explore who you are beyond the stories and identities you've carried. This is a space for transformation, where you can let go of outdated narratives and step into the freedom of your authentic self.
Having experienced profound transformation in our own lives through this work, we’re passionate about sharing it with others. We want you to experience the same healing, freedom, and inner connection that we’ve found. The Rooted Heart Path is an invitation to return to yourself and live in harmony with your truest nature.
“I was a little nervous about joining the group programme, as I knew there were difficult topics I wanted to address and doing so in a group setting felt daunting. Having completed the programme, I wouldn’t choose to have done it any other way. I was able to learn new things about myself, develop a sense of calm and peace, and move through many sore points, all while feeling held and cared for by Ria, Brenda and the lovely women in the group. It was something I started to look forward to each week. Thanks to this journey, I feel like I’ve embarked on a new chapter of my life with more confidence and ease. I would recommend this programme, and these special coaches, to everyone and anyone. ”
