RestoreU, Well being studio

Sonia is just wonderful! I joined her 7 Week Mindfulness & Meditation Program and I'm so glad I did. I'm not the best at taking time for myself and after 2 years (and counting) of living through a pandemic as a mum and business owner I was feeling extremely frazzled and worn out. Being part of Sonia's program gave me permission to take me time for me. I was a complete novice to meditation and not entirely sure what to expect. Sonia is so calm and caring – I was instantly put at ease and really looked forward to the mediation sessions. I often started them feeling flustered and 'wound up' but always left feeling relaxed and ready to tackle the rest of the day. Could not recommend Sonia highly enough.

Sonia is a delight to work with, from the initial planning stage to the event itself. I booked her for a school visit and she inspired peace and calm in groups of 40 children, with a sound bath in the woods. People who had not previously used meditation were shown its powerful properties. Thank you, Sonia!

I absolutely LOVED Sonia Norman's Gong Bath Meditation at Place Eight Wellness.As a Yoga Teacher I have been teaching meditation for a long time and I love sound based meditations. I have been to many classes like this but this one was truly wonderful ... and the fact it had to be outside due to social distancing guidelines only added to the atmosphere of the meditationHighly recommended for anyone who needs some head space or me time

I recently attended one of Sonia's sound baths, what a wonderful experience. Sonia has a calmness and a lovely energy and this shone through as she worked with the singing bowls and her gong as the sounds sang and danced around us.I drifted in and out of sleep and dreams as the sounds vibrated through my body and felt very peaceful afterwards. I had a great nights sleep and kept the self care going all weekend just being as my body took what it needed from the sounds and vibrations.If you haven't experienced a sound bath before then Sonia would be the perfect person for you to go to. And if you're experienced you'll really feel the wonderful energy in her new studio and the how she works with the bowls and her gong.I highly recommend Sonia and RestoreU.The studio is lovely and easy to find and there's parking close by including blue badge bays if, like me, you need those.Look out for her sessions as well as her one to one work and the retreats the she's holding.

I experienced the Energetic Healing Event hosted by Sarah & Sonia. What a wonderful evening! Sarah & Sonia were so warm and welcoming and I left feeling rebalanced and ready to face the world.

I had my first Sound Bath with Sonia yesterday and I loved it! From the moment I walked in I could feel myself relax thanks to Sonia's friendly welcome. Sonia has such a calming voice and I felt very at-ease. The Sound Bath itself was amazing - I will definitely be returning!

I have taken part in group sessions but this was my first time experiencing a private Sound Bath. Sonia quickly made me comfortable and the whole experience was calming and relaxing. I have a slight hearing problem but I felt the whole range of sound sensations from the wonderful tinkling water chimes through to the whole body sensation of the gong resonation. I came out of the session totally refreshed both physically and mentally and would strongly recommend Sonia's wonderful therapy.

I have attended a few events now at RestoreU, when Sonia has collaborated with another business, but also for a 1-to-1 soundbath, and it just keeps getting better. I think I'm becoming obsessed with those and I can't get enough of Sonia's beautifully sounding gong Bea!Last night's Crystal Reiki, Cards Reading and Sound Bath for the Summer Solstice felt really special, very blissful.Both Sonia and Sarah are passionate about what they do, and this is felt in the energy they share with their clients.The studio is a beautiful, safe and comfortable space.I always leave the events feeling very relaxed and grateful.I look forward to the next one!Thank you Sonia and Sarah for holding this space for us last night.

I have been to several sound baths hosted by Sonia and B (the gong) I find it amazing each time and Sonia is so calming. It’s definitely going to be part of my self care regime.

I have loved every session with Sonia, from AcuEnergetics to sound baths to the charity Yogathon. Sonia is a very calming force with an ability to help ground you in a way that cannot be explained. I have even booked my mother in with her!
