Entrepreneur Escape

Hey fellow entrepreneurs…

Yeah, I feel you. Some days it’s really tough, some days it’s energy up, sometimes it’s so down even the idea of opening an email is too much.

A gentle reminder that we wear many hats, and that constant shift from working in the business to on the business, or from marketing to accounts. It takes its toll.

So here is a day just for you; my wonderful companions in this world of self employed. Please know NYF will always have a place for you. To come and escape, to come and reconnect, to come and find that passion. I hope, truly, this helps you feel a little more you.

Below, you’ll find a curated selection of classes and experiences that I’m pretty sure, would help me feel a lot better!

Love and light, always

Probably need a coffee

Multiple coffee opportunities across the Festival.

Nourish and Daily Grind.

Nourish is a wonderful breakfast spot on Grove Road, Norwich if you ever need somewhere to meet

And the Daily Grind, owned by Sarah and Thomas, are connected with all sorts of local events, so worth chatting to if you’re planning your own.

But this Festival day isn’t work… so connect sooner rather than later.

Find The Daily Grind right near Zen Tent and the chill out area

Find Nourish Near the Festival Entrance with the other food trucks

Options

Kelly, owner of Hotpod Yoga Norwich, is teaching the signature Hotpod Flow on Main Stage.

Why not get your morning movement done, but also check out the style of class. Hotpod offers such a huge class schedule every week, that sometimes it’s the easiest place to get your yoga done.

Options and flexibility can be so helpful when short on time, and the endorphin hit after a hotpod class will see you through the next 4 hours of admin!

Find Kelly on Main Stage at 10:40am

Let’s Wind Down

Join Yoga with Lucy for her beautiful Sound bath. Lay back, relax, let the sounds wash over you and bring you out of the day to day.

It can be challenging to stop thinking, but there’s something wonderfully captivating about a sound bath. The sounds pull you from your thoughts and allow you to settle in a place of quiet, a place where the thoughts might, for 5 minutes, pause.

Find Yoga with Lucy in the Zen Tent at 11:30am

Time to look after you

You eating right? I hope so. But just incase deep nutrition goes out of the window sometimes, why not get inspired by Faye, owner of Root of Wellbeing.

Faye’s workshop offers a gentle introduction to these Ayurvedic principles, along with inspiration for simple, time-tested practices that can be woven into daily life to cultivate greater awareness and connection with digestion and food choices. Discover traditional uses of kitchen cupboard spices and explore how food and mindful eating can support balance in both body and mind. 

Find Faye in the Woodland Workshops at 12:20pm

Find Ease In Change

Running a business is an ever evolving beast sometimes, and making the changes can be really tough sometimes. The comfort of what we’ve always done vs the changes we likely know we need to make.

Cassie, fellow business owner, but also network facilitator (of sorts, her gatherings are wonderful) will help you become more at ease with making change.

Find Cassie in the Guest Speaker Tent at 1:10pm
