About this Event
Start your day with calm, clarity and a little time to nurture yourself.
Soul Sanctuary Sunderland presents: The Inner Sanctuary Sessions
If life has you feeling stressed out, burnt out, or overwhelmed, join us for a gentle, nurturing space to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself.
Or, if you are someone who already walks a spiritual path, this space offers quiet time to deepen your meditation practice and nurture your spiritual connection.
This is your time to find your inner sanctuary to fully decompress from whatever life is throwing at you, set your intentions, and prepare for the week ahead with calm and clarity.
Use the time however feels right for you. You might choose to read, colour, meditate, rest, draw, write or pop your earphones in and listen to an audiobook. There is no pressure, no expectation, and no judgement. You do not even need to speak to anyone if you don’t feel like it. This is YOUR time.
Bring along your favorite book, your journal or just bring yourself. If you forget to bring something… a small selection of reading books journal prompts and adult colouring books with pens and pencils will be available for you to use.
Trying to take time out at home often does not work, the to-do list is still there, distractions creep in, and true rest feels impossible. This dedicated, peaceful space allows you to genuinely let go, breathe, and nurture yourself. Regular visits can help release stress, restore energy, support mental and emotional wellbeing, and leave you feeling calmer, lighter, and more centred.
The space is thoughtfully prepared for your comfort and relaxation: you will have a yoga mat, blanket, cushion, bolster, and floor cushion provided for you, creating a cosy and comfortable environment to relax in.
The space is open between 9am and 11:00am. You are welcome to stay for as little or as long as you like.
Your first session is completely free, and subsequent sessions are just £8.50 each. Spaces are limited to ensure a peaceful environment.
To book your FREE first session, simply send me a message via email, facebook or instagram.
Schedule in a little time for yourself in this quiet, welcoming space to reset, recharge, and reconnect with your own peace. Think of it as your Tuesday morning self-love club, a space to slow down, find stillness, and return to your centre.

You do not need any experience with meditation, mindfulness, or relaxation practices. You do not need to be spiritual, creative, or “good” at resting. There is nothing to achieve and nothing to get right.
All you need is a willingness to give yourself permission to slow down.
This space welcomes all adults who are seeking calm, ease, and a moment of peace.
Come exactly as you are.
What to expect:
As you arrive, you will be welcomed into the space and invited to make your way into our beautiful moon room. Choose a spot wherever you feel most comfortable, settle in, and make yourself at home.
The room is warm, calm, and softly lit, with peaceful meditation music playing quietly in the background. Everything is set up to help you feel safe, supported, and at ease from the moment you arrive.
This is completely unstructured time. You decide how you wish to spend YOUR session. There is no right or wrong way to be here.
You may choose to:
- Sit or lie down in quiet meditation
- Rest or simply be still
- Read a book
- Journal or write
- Draw or colour
- Listen to an audiobook or music through your headphones
- Or anything else you’d like to do, as long as it is a quiet activity that respects others in the space
The space is open between 9am and 11:00am. As long as you are booked in, you are welcome to arrive and leave at any point within that time. Stay for a short pause or linger for the full session, whatever feels right for you that day.
This is a quiet, respectful space where everyone is focused on their own being and self-care. You are not expected to interact, participate, or share. Just come as you are, and allow yourself the permission to rest... slow down, and come back to yourself.

A yoga mat, cushion, bolster, cosy blanket, and eye pillow will all be provided for your comfort.
You may also wish to bring:
