WOMEN'S RETREATS | AERIAL HAMMOCK | PRIVATE CLASSES | SOMATIC | HEALING
WELCOME SISTER, I'M JESSICA...
...and I'm so glad you found me!
Here you are invited to give yourself the gift of space and time.
To meet yourself where you are right now, and to learn ways to connect, embrace and fall in love with yourself that is every woman's birthright.
My name is Jessica Ashby, and I am a Somatic Therapist working with women like you to bring this gift to life, specialising in aerial and ground based meditation and movement therapy ranging from private classes, group workshops, ceremonies, blessings, events and retreats with a somatic, seasonal and cyclical approach to your holistic healing and wellness for the mind, body & soul.
My work is community based, and I create healing places in sacred spaces, (be it in your own home, or one of my bespoke spaces in and around North London and Herts) for women like you to be supported at every stage of your life and to lean on your fellow females as part of a sisterhood, while embracing the people already in your life.
Should you wish, I also hold space for you and your family so that you may experience my approach to somatic healing together or alone, or like many of my clients do, a combination of both.
Whatever you feel suits you best will be the way we will work together.
Collectively we meet each other where we are in our lives and hold space for the idea that we are never too much, or not enough of anything to prioritise ourselves.

SOMATIC THERAPY
Somatic means ‘of relating to the body’ and somatic therapy, (sometimes known as body psychotherapy) is a therapeutic approach that places importance on what we experience in the mind and the body as well as the connection between the two, helping to restore the body back to a state or balance, equilibrium or homeostasis.
We will work together in a private 1-1 setting with a focus on the mind-body connection supporting growth, healing trauma, and finding ease in the body, mind, and the nervous system, where each session will be informed by you and your intentions, meeting you where you are on your healing journey.
I work privately with all ages and stages of women, preferably in your home, (depending on your location) or you can come to me in one of my spaces based in and around the Barnet/Enfield/Haringey areas of North London.
I occasionally work with couples, families, men, teenagers and children but this will be on a case by case basis.
RETREAT
At Cloud9 we specialise in creating healing places in sacred spaces where a woman just like you can come together with other like minded women to learn, share and experience the collective healing power of sisterhood.
Our transformative retreats range from evenings, full days and overnight stays, and are the ultimate in self connection and rejuvenation for the body mind and soul.
All women are welcome at our retreats with an open mind and heart, and you will return to your home feeling relaxed, recharged, revitalised and more in love with yourself and your fellow sisters than you ever thought possible.

AERIAL HAMMOCK
A totally unique experience to be suspended in the air, allowing your hammock to take your body weight so that you don't have to...
Our aerial hammock sessions have it all, from fitness and aerial acrobatics, to relaxation and zen time. We can even provide sound healing and massage while you float on cloud9!
I can work with you in a range of ways to suit you, so click on what is calling you below for more info...
CEREMONIES & BLESSINGS
Are you looking to honour, celebrate, bless and support a loved one, sister, or yourself during an important life milestone?
Or maybe you want to spend some focussed time with your chosen women by holding your own special mini retreat, blessing or ceremony. I specialise in sensitively holding space for your circle of women of all ages to do just that.
My ceremonies and blessings are bespoke to each group and I will work with you to make sure that all of your needs are met to create the right feel for the occasion.
My ceremonies and blessings can include:
- Mother's blessing - ceremony and celebration for the mother and baby preparing for the birth
- Womb blessing - holding space to support a fertility journey, pregnancy loss at any stage and womb healing
- Supporting newly single life - divorced/separated
- Widow's blessing - supporting a sister through her loss and navigating the next steps
- Marriage blessing - ceremony and celebration for the bride to be
- Coming of age blessing - for any age or milestone birthday
- Friendship/sisterhood blessing - celebrating a special group of friends/family with some sacred time together
- Newly departed blessing - holding space for the loss of a family member
- New home blessing - ceremony for families/friends in their new home
- Any other life milestone - if I haven't mentioned it, just ask!
