About The Wild Pause

Hi, I’m Sally Brown, the heart behind The Wild Pause—a space for women to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with themselves through nature.

My journey to this work has been shaped by a life deeply rooted in the outdoors. I’m a certified Sylvotherapist (Forest Therapy Guide), a long-time Scout and Girl Guide leader, and someone who has always found peace and purpose among the trees.

I’ve lived in Cyprus and Belgium, raising a family along the way, and now call rural France my home. But my roots are in Norfolk, UK, where my family still resides, and where I feel that deep sense of belonging.

Life has brought me through many seasons—raising two amazing adult children, caring for loved ones in their final years, and weaving together a career in adult education, tourism, and even running my own natural skincare business. Through it all, nature has been my constant refuge, offering clarity, healing, and a gentle reminder that we are already enough—just as we are.

Now, I want to share this with you.

What is The Wild Pause?

It’s an invitation to step away from the noise—whether for a few hours in the woods or a deeper experience in nature. I run:
🍃 Short taster sessions & meet-ups in Norfolk
🌿 Longer immersive experiences in the UK, France & Portugal
🌲 Practical, hands-on ways to reconnect with nature & yourself

This isn’t about “escaping life.” It’s about learning to pause within it, to find joy in simple moments, and to rediscover the wild, wonderful parts of yourself that may have been set aside for others.

Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stretched between responsibilities, or simply craving a little peace, The Wild Pause is here for you.

Come walk with me.
