ABOUT NICKI
Somatic Healing Practitioner · West Sussex & Online
I'm Nicki Lambert — Somatic Healing Practitioner and conscious connected breathwork facilitator based in Ferring, West Sussex. I work with midlife women who are functioning fine on the outside — and running on empty on the inside. Women who are living on autopilot and quietly wondering: is this it?

lived it
FERRING, WEST SUSSEX & ONLINE
"Working with women who are ready to stop surviving and start coming back to themselves."
THE BEGINNING
Slowly falling apart inside
I know this feeling firsthand. I spent years as a single parent in corporate life, holding everything together on the outside while slowly losing touch with who I actually was beneath all the doing. High-functioning. Capable. Managing. And underneath it all — slowly falling apart inside.
​
It didn't happen dramatically. It crept up slowly over years until it felt normal — the always on, the bracing, the anticipating. The constant planning and scheduling, trying so hard to make life feel easier.
​
Until one day I realised I didn't like who I'd become — and something had to change.
"I didn't know I was running on empty. I just thought that was life."
THE TURNING POINT
The breath gave me back to myself
The breath was the doorway back. Not as a technique to master — as a way of getting beneath the mind and into the body, where the real story was waiting.
​
What I found there wasn't breakdown. It was parts of me that had been holding fear, shame, and old survival patterns for decades — quietly running the show, long past the point they needed to. The work was in meeting those parts, not fighting them. Finding my way back to myself — one breath at a time.
​
That's what I now hold space for other women to do. Through somatic healing, conscious connected breathwork, and sound — in 1:1 sessions, in intimate group gatherings, and in a growing community of women doing this work together.
"I do this so that other women don't have to wait as long as I did."
HOW I WORK
Not here to fix you
My approach is simple. We are not problems to be fixed. The nervous system doesn't need to be managed — it needs to feel safe enough to let go.
​
The parts of us still holding old fear or shame don't need to be silenced or pushed aside — they need to finally feel heard. In every session - whether 1:1 or in a gathering — we follow the body's lead. We don't rush. We don't fix. We meet what's there.
"Some people know this work as somatic healing. Others call it nervous system coaching. Both are true."
"You are not broken. You are burdened. And burdens, with the right support, can be put down."
If you've been waiting for something to shift — and wondering why it hasn't — this might be why.

WHO I WORK WITH
Midlife women ready to
come back to themselves
I work with midlife women who are functioning fine on the outside and running on empty on the inside. Women who have tried talking about it, tried the courses, tried pushing through. And still feel stuck.
​
You might be navigating a life transition — perimenopause, an empty nest, a career change, a relationship shift — while feeling more exhausted, more overwhelmed, and less like yourself than ever before.
​
I live in Ferring, West Sussex with my husband James and our dog Luna. I'm drawn to the sea, the peace in nature, and the wisdom in stillness. And I believe every woman who walks through the door already has everything she needs — she's just been too busy surviving to hear it.
