Introductory Matrescence Awareness & Embodiment Workshop

This workshop will be led by Bree Sutherland, the founder of Soul FULL Coaching & Yoga. Bree is a certified Matrescence Facilitator, Life Coach, and Yoga Teacher, as well as a mother herself. With a deep commitment to supporting women through the profound shifts of motherhood, she creates nurturing spaces for self-discovery and empowerment.

Pause. Reflect. Restore. Reset.

Motherhood transforms every part of a woman — mind, body, and soul. Yet the journey of Matrescence — the transition into and through motherhood — is often overlooked, leaving many women feeling unseen, unprepared, or disconnected from themselves.

This introductory Matrescence Awareness & Embodiment Workshop is a deeply nourishing space created for mothers in the early years postpartum — beyond the first 12 months — who may be navigating the ongoing shifts of identity, energy, purpose, and self.

It’s a space for those who are ready to move from simply surviving to gently thriving.

Blending insightful Matrescence education with guided reflection and restorative yoga, this workshop offers you space to:

Explore the ongoing impact of Matrescence, including emotional, physical, and identity transformations.

Reconnect with yourself through nurturing, reflective practices.

Experience gentle, restorative yoga designed to foster mind-body connection, supporting your nervous system & creating space for reflection, introspection, and the integration of your learnings.

Feel seen, heard, and truly understood in a safe, supportive, nurturing space.

Motherhood changes everything — but you don’t have to lose yourself in the process.

This is your invitation to soften, to breathe, and to return to the woman within the mother.

It would be my honour to witness your journey and hold this space for you.

I can’t wait to welcome you, mama.

What to Bring:

Yoga mat, bolster and/or eye pillow (optional, these are also provided)

Blanket, to cosy into some restorative yoga poses 

Journal, to capture any notes & insights you want to keep 

Duration: 1.5 hours

Day & Time: Saturday 24th May, 3.30 - 5pm

When returning to exercise there are some key components that we need to be looking at. Although the doctor gives us the all clear at that 6 week check up there are so many factors to consider before jumping straight back into exercise.

In this 6 week Foundations Course we’ll go over the importance of taking things slow and setting up a strong foundation first, as this is going to allow you to build strength from the inside out and help you progress safely and confidently. The breath work I teach in this course will not only assist you in returning to the exercise of your choice but also assist in supporting you in everyday life too!

Cost: $120 for 6 weeks

Dates: 14 May - 18 June 2025

Day + Time: Wednesdays 12pm - 1pm
