“LIKE HONEY FOR THE SOUL” - Pippa Best: Sea Soul Blessings
“LIKE HONEY FOR THE SOUL” - Pippa Best: Sea Soul Blessings
This is a space where presence holds more value than productivity.
Where your emotions, your body, your intuition, your rhythm — are not distractions, but the source of your truest work.
This is a space where freedom and creativity is held sacred. Where nature-connection is as vital as the nutritious food you eat.
I’m Kari Herbert — artist, writer, mindfulness and rest guide, and mindset coach.
I work with thoughtful creators, soulful visionaries, and heart-led makers — some building businesses, some exploring what's next — all seeking a more intentional way to live and create.
Here, we don’t hustle.
We allow ourselves space to breathe.
We don’t follow formulas or chase the algorithm.
We lean into what feels right; what feels like freedom and truth.
We take time to remember who we really are and move forward with sovereignty.
Whether you're growing a business or simply growing into yourself, this is a place to reconnect with your own rhythm — and create from there.
Welcome home.
You’re here because something in you is ready to slow down.
To make space. To move differently.
Maybe you’re creating something new.
Maybe you’re finding your way back to what matters.
Either way, you’re not late — and you’re not lost.
This isn’t a place for fixing or performing.
It’s a space to reconnect — with your creativity, your inner calm, your own quiet knowing — so that when you take that next step you are fully resourced, aligned and plugged into the essence of you.
Take a moment. Look around.
See what calls you.

LOVELY PEOPLE SAYING NICE THINGS:
“I am just amazed at how quickly my body and mind responded to our session together. I had no idea how powerful this kind of thing could be, not just for me, but for my team and my family too - there has definitely been a ripple effect! I feel much more calm, balanced and positive. Thank you Kari.” - Amanda
“Kari I’m so moved by how transformational and hopeful this is beginning to feel already using your meditation and journal prompts. In deep gratitude.” - Julia
“Kari is a master at tending and holding space and the gift she gives is restoratively magical. Thank you Kari, your thoughtfulness and care is what makes everything you do so magical.’ - Vickie
“Your voice, your presence, your energy… a balm for my entire being. So calming.” Martina
“Your energy is beautiful. I immediately feel more at ease as soon as you start speaking!” Michelle
Whether you’re feeling stressed, anxious, have big presentations coming up and are worried about speaking in public, have a phobia or just not feeling as though your fully embracing your potential, tapping can help.
EFT is an easy, relaxing and practical science-based method of releasing negative emotions, thought patterns and beliefs that can create resistance to rest, financial freedom or success. At the same time, tapping can promote creativity, better health and overall well-being.
Mindfulness can help reduce stress, improve your mental and physical health, and even increase your overall happiness in life by becoming consciously aware of the present moment. Caught up as we often are in repetitive thinking, multi-tasking and results-driven striving, we begin to feel disconnected, overstretched and overwhelmed.
Stuck in a rut, directionless or trying to navigate a creative block? Creative Mindfulness is also a powerful way to unlock your inspiration and creative potential, and get into flow.
It’s time for a new relationship with rest. I guide you in a variety of restorative practices and exercises that suit your lifestyle and your needs, whether you are looking for easy plug-in-and-go rest sessions or a unique program tailored to you.
Radical Rest is a deep dive into what we really need in our lives in order to thrive. More than just taking an occasional nap, this is a proven framework in which we address and heal deep tiredness, overwhelm and exhaustion. The results can be transformative.
Whether you could do with some support to sleep better, to manage and elevate your mood, to help with mental focus, support recovery from illness or injury, to balance hormones/menopause or to boost your immune system, essential oils are a wonderful, natural resource.
I work with the purest, most ethically-sourced essential oils around. These oils are transformative tools that can elevate our physical, mental and emotional wellbeing. They also smell delicious too…
Feeling disconnected, overwhelmed or just feel you need a change of perspective and some deeply restorative time in nature? Throughout the year, I lead individuals, teams and small groups into wild nature where we can find and cultivate a sense of resilience, peace and inner calm.
These are wonderful, gentle and immersive experiences, leaving you feeling rejuvenated, resourced, balanced and reconnected to the natural world. Wild Wonder Walks and Retreats are held in Cornwall (but I’m happy to travel)…
Studies have shown that creative practices have many benefits, such as decreasing stress, managing anxiety and enhancing self-awareness and resilience. They are enjoyable too!
Creative Mindfulness and Journaling helps the mind to come into flow-state and boosts creative thinking, insight and focus. Creative practices I use are free-drawing, drawing the breath, pattern-flow, journaling, random poetry, vision boarding and mandala creation. All so blissful! At present only bookable as private groups.
I’m about:
Truth. Expansion. Adventure. Curiosity. Creativity. Deep, delicious rest. Nature. Sharing wonder.
I’m also an Author, Artist, Mindfulness Teacher, EFT practitioner, Restorative EcoNidra and Radical Rest Coach, and Speaker. Add to that: a recovering perfectionist and burn-out/chronic-fatigue survivor.
I learned the hard way that rest is not something that needs to be earned and that making time to be creative and be in nature is not an indulgence. I know from experience that conscious rest, creative experimentation and nature connection are the foundations of a productive, joy-filled life.
It’s my mission to guide and support consciously-minded, talented humans, like you; to provide spaciousness and sanctuary where you feel deeply nourished so you can navigate life’s challenges with more ease and have the energy and clarity to embody and express your soul purpose.
As the daughter of a polar explorer, I’ve always lived on the edge of things, and I have come to realise the importance of balancing and nurturing both the wilder, expressive parts of our nature and the quieter, deeper, more intuitive and creative sides. Wild Calm personifies this beautiful synergy.
Together, we explore techniques to unlock your creativity, connect deeply with nature and feel more aligned with the fullness of your true self so that you can take the next best step for you. Mindfulness, creative practices, wild nature, conscious rest and essential oils are my transformative tools.
I look forward to getting to know you.
