WINTER NEST
Journeying with the Water Element in 5 element theory nurturing the kidneys and urinary bladder, Winter brings us into the Heart of Yin and reminds us the depth and richness of our inner world. As we soften through the Heart and into the Womb we’ll explore themes of fluidity, intuition, sensuality and the wisdom of stillness.
“Being is not passive; it takes focused awareness.” ― Maureen Murdock, The Heroine’s Journey: Woman’s Quest for Wholeness
“Joining Lani and the other ladies in the tent has been a beacon of light in my week, time to slow down, drop in, connect, laugh, cry, learn, and embody in a safe and beautiful space.

I’ve joined 3 or 4 Yin Nests and excited for more.“

Creating space to breathe + honor the wisdom of your seasons & cycles.
Come tend to your inner space. Breathe with me.
Allow your mind to soften into your heart, your bones to melt into the earth and your creative essence to flourish in the magic of Being You.
You’ll be guided in simple, slow somatic movement, yoga, character strength contemplations, creative expression & feminine embodiment to help you find the stillness + sensuality you’ve been craving.
- Create inner safety and the space to Let Go.
- Explore your gifts and strengths and share your feminine wisdom
- Notice where your body has been carrying stress, shame and overwhelm
- Develop resources to help you slow down, tune into and channel the wisdom of Yin, creativity & intuition.
- Feel lighter and more deeply grounded in your body and your unique strengths.
These circles are for you if:
You thrive in deep, meaningful connection to other heart centred humans
The best of your creativity and heart energy flows from a space of Allowing rather than Forcing.
Exhaustion, hustle, overthinking and doing everything on your own drowns out the magic of your beautiful Heart.
You need time to Rest and Breathe in order to hear your own beautiful voice.
You’re curious and committed to living in harmony with your natural rhythms and cycles.
You believe your Heart IS a beautifully unique gift to be shared.
A journey inspired by nature, and fuelled by slowness, contemplation, self compassion and embodiment.
Mind, Body, Heart + Soul.
This Women’s Yin Nest is a gentle invitation to nurture and rest more deeply into your unique gifts and creativity.
- Are you working on something BIG and craving time with other heart centred creative folk?
- Feeling depleted and disheartened by the ‘successes’ you’ve already achieved and need a little care so you can hear yourself again?
- Or maybe you just know you want to prioritise a little Yin and Contemplation in your life!
Join a small group of 8 women as we allow breathe, movement, sensual embodiment, connection and stillness to replenish our feminine essence.
We slow down to remember how deeply connected and wise we are.
Exploring the gifts of Deep Rest, Feminine Embodiment, Restoration and alignment with our highest purpose.
Allowing space for the wisdom of our emotional body, sensuality and menstruality to be embraced and embodied.
And each season we allow mother nature to guide us with her wisdom.
Reviews
“Joining Lani and the other ladies in the tent has been a beacon of light in my week, time to slow down, drop in, connect, laugh, cry, learn, and embody in a safe and beautiful space. All of me was welcome, and being seen and heard is invaluable. The space Lani has created, her wisdom, guidance, holding of space, is just so beautiful and nourishing. I’ve joined 3 or 4 Yin Nests and excited for more.”
“Lani’s women’s circles are a sacred space and a necessary women’s practice. Especially for anyone that feels things deeply. A place to feel into our inner self and allow what is there to been seen, felt, shared and or released. It has provided me more that I have words for, so much subtle change that has lead to giant leaps. I am so profoundly grateful for this time, space, woman.”
“This is the ultimate commitment and gift of love to yourself. Words don’t describe the power of being held and listened to without judgement so you can simply be present exactly how you are, and supported with what you need in the moment. Such a magical bell tent in a beautiful Naturescape combined with Lani’s nurturing wisdom attracts like-minded women to connect with. You’ll wonder why you didn’t prioritise it sooner.”
“Rest is not a luxury – it is essential and important. If you find it often gets pushed to the bottom of the pile because life never stops throwing stuff at you, I highly recommend signing up for some structured rest time with Lani. Whatever comes up in the tent, I always feel safe and supported and able to walk out feeling more relaxed and open to life.”
“Lani creates a warm, safe and supportive nest where everyone can share and connect. The power of connecting with other women is necessary, but often missing from our everyday lives. I have learned many practices that I can do at home. I feel like I’ve finally come home and am enjoying learning and exploring about myself and just be-ing!e, and being seen and heard is invaluable. The space Lani has created, her wisdom, guidance, holding of space, is just so beautiful and nourishing. I’ve joined 3 or 4 Yin Nests and excited for more.“
Rapture
Rapture is the space where you know the perfection of your being – that it’s a privilege to be a woman, to be alive, to be given the gift of feeling pleasure with your body.

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I can’t make it to all sessions in the 10 week series?
– If you know at the time of booking, You can ask for a credit for up to 2 sessions. These credits can be used for attendance at any of our 2 hour Deep Rest sessions during the Yin Nest period. Just send me a message and let me know the dates you’d like to attend and I’ll book you in. Alternatively maybe consider joining us for our special Friday night offerings instead.
– If you have unexpected plans, illness or changes arise later, no refunds or credits are available for missed sessions however I’ll do my best to ensure you’re included in any home play practices or contemplations.
Can I pay as I go for the 10 week series? If you’ve previously attended a Yin Nest you’ll receive an email with a link to book casual sessions. If this is your first time we ask that you commit to the full 10 Week Series to allow a strong, nourishing, secure container to be formed for everyone. We do offer a monthly payment plan if that helps. You can find details for the payment plan here.
Do I need to have any yoga experience to attend these classes? No, these sessions are structured to suit every level. The only real physical requirement is that you be able to get up and down off the ground with ease.
Are these sessions only for women? Yes, we explore aspects of the menstrual cycle and unique feminine form so these sessions are for those who identify as a woman only. Please visit our Events page to see our all gender offerings.
Do I need to be creative or have my own business to attend? You don’t need to have a business or creative offering – I believe creativity is at the heart of the feminine essence so you can come exactly as you are. At times you may be asked to consider the unique gifts and strengths that you hold and the ways you contribute meaningfully to the communities, families and world around you.
I’m currently working with a counsellor or psychologist to heal from trauma, is this group session suitable for me? These sessions can be a beautiful compliment to cognitive therapies as we combine somatic (body based) practices and can be a very powerful support for grounding in periods of anxiety or grief. However these sessions are not a replacement for counselling or psychotherapy sessions nor are they group therapy. If you have unresolved trauma please check in with your therapist or reach out to me so we can have a chat. Recommendations to heart centred counsellors, psychotherapists and health professionals can also be provided to support your journey if needed.
Will I need to share my personal story in front of others? On some weeks there will be an invitation to share your reflections or experience however this will always be optional and you’ll be reminded it’s OK to pass or to not share. Our sessions will be a combination of self enquiry and invitations for partnered or group shares. If you’d like to share more of your story and receive individual guidance I encourage you to book a 1:1 session.
Should I come to some 1:1 sessions first? If you’ve been working with a counsellor or are in the thick of a deep emotional journey you may find a 1:1 to be more supportive so we can gently explore the unique ways you may need support right now. In a 1:1 to session we have the space to explore more of your personal story and adjust the movement and stillness to your needs. In our group sessions there is less opportunity for us to go deeper into your emotional journey.
I’ve never attended a session with you before, how will I know if this is the right fit for me? You can book in for a complimentary 15 minute call with me to say hi and we can chat about what you’re in need of right now and the way I work so you can get clearer on if we’re a good fit.
I’m pregnant, are these sessions ok for pregnant women? All of our practices can be customised for you no matter what stage of your pregnancy. The focus here will be on providing a gentle space for you to rest, breathe and connect with the beauty and wisdom of your womb and the little life growing inside of you.
What if I change my mind after booking? If you need to cancel or reschedule your booking you can do so with at least 7 days prior to the start date and I’ll happily refund any payments you’ve made, after this all payments are non refundable or transferable.

Who are Your Facilitators?
Lani Noble, hi I’m Lani, the heart & voice behind heArt of Rest. A space for you to receive nurturing and guidance as you step into living a life aligned with your heart purpose, values and strengths. I have a special passion for guiding Highly Sensitive Entrepreneurs and Heart-Centred nurturers.
I worked for the Tax Office for more than a decade before hearing my own internal wisdom tell me there is more to life than rushing, stressing and trying to keep up. I know what it feels like to be caught in the mental looping of the mind completely disconnected from my body and I know how easily overwhelm can sneak in if I’m not intentional about where I invest my time and energy. Through the process of dismantling and recreating my own life I now know Connection, Slowing down, Self Love and honouring the seasons are essential in honouring my own inner wisdom and sensitive nature.
I’ve spent 12 years immersed in the practice, study and teaching of Embodiment & Wellbeing including Yin Yoga, Sensory Processing Sensitivity, embracing Grief and Loss, Compassionate Mindfulness, Psoas release, Sacred Sexuality and Tantra. Drawing from all of these tools (and my own walk through the fires of transformation) I see myself as a mid wife of the soul gently encouraging you as you remember your own brilliance.
As you pause and create space, I’ll be there as a guide, mentor and friend cheering you on to connect to your own inner wisdom.
I believe your feminine essence, emotional intelligence and sensitivity is a gift. A gift that is screaming to be seen, heard, loved & shared. When the world we live in doesn’t openly appreciate the many gifts of intuition, intelligence, slowness and emotional wisdom it’s easy to be left feeling uncomfortable, uninspired, disempowered or even broken. But there is so much we can do to support your beautifully wise nervous system and harness your creativity and strengths so you can rest into a life lived with meaning and purpose.
Why do we find it so hard to rest?
Even if we know deep down in our core we’re in need of time to rest or be with other women, so often it’s a challenge to actually take that time. Please know you’re not alone in this. This is the number one thing that women tell me when they first start working with me. They just find it hard to stop.
Why is it so hard? I’ve pondered this question for the last decade & through my own journey and working with thousands of women and the reality is it is a complex issue, one that is often wrapped up in trauma, childhood wounds and more generally from our collective lack of recognition of the feminine wisdom that is relational and nurturing. But from a very simplistic perspective these are 3 big things that often come up.
How would you like to feel?
We’re often taught to only focus on planning and structuring our lives and what we can see with our eyes or hold with our hands.
A key part of embodiment practice is honouring the FEELING part of you.
From my own personal journey and the feedback received from the thousands of wonderful humans I’ve worked with, a regular Yin and Embodiment practice can leave you feeling more:
- Grounded in your body & centred in the present
- Connected to pleasure as a nourishing & healing presence
- Resourced to manage busy periods in your life
- Confident in establishing healthy boundaries that nurture your wise heart
- Aware of the beauty in your sensitivity and sensuality
- Naturally connected to your radiance, intuition and power
- Connected to your inner masculine presence – unwavering and confident.
Is it time to come home to you?
Close your eyes and imagine a circle of beautiful humans gathering together to prioritise their own self care, deep rest, inner wisdom, sensuality and natural expression.
Humans choosing to not medicalise or shame their emotions, need for rest, pain or illness but instead looking to the inner wisdom their body is revealing to them of a much deeper longing?
The deeper longing to return home to ourself.
This is what our Women’s Yin Nest is. Sweet but fierce hearted humans gathering together with others who prioritise feeling at home in their own skin.
Nourished. Radiant. Alive. Held.
Humans choosing to be a revolutionary by honouring our need to Rest and Connect.
