Somatic Healing, Embodiment & Nervous System Regulation for Midlife Women with Hedi | Hot Flushes & Higher Self

In this episode of Hot Flushes & Higher Self, Soraya is joined by Hedi, London-based holistic coach, somatic practitioner, and founder of The Soul Works, for a grounded and expansive conversation on embodiment, nervous system regulation, and deep inner healing.

Hedi brings a unique approach that weaves together coaching, mindfulness, somatic practices, and energetic work, supporting women to reconnect with their bodies and navigate midlife transitions with greater ease, awareness, and self-leadership.

Together, they explore how somatics can help release stored emotions, why nervous system regulation is essential during periods of stress and change, and how embodiment creates a deeper sense of clarity, confidence, and inner connection.

Hedi also shares insight into her work within retreat spaces, offering a glimpse into how these practices can be experienced in a supportive, in-person setting.

🌸 In this episode, they explore:

✨ What somatics really means and how it helps release stored emotional patterns
 ✨ Why nervous system regulation is key during times of stress and transition
 ✨ How embodiment supports deeper self-awareness, confidence, and growth
 ✨ Practical and intuitive tools to support everyday life
 ✨ How somatic work can be experienced within a retreat setting

Hedi brings a calm, grounded presence to this conversation, offering both practical tools and deeper reflections for women who are ready to reconnect with themselves on a body-led level.

This episode is especially for women navigating midlife, stress, or a sense of disconnection — offering a gentle invitation to come back into the body and trust its wisdom.
