About
About Simmi Sandhu
I am an artist and mother creating symbolic, intuitive work and thoughtfully held creative sanctuaries for women navigating fertility, midlife, body confidence, and personal transition.
My practice is shaped by lived experience, including my own journey through IVF and becoming a mother later in life. Through painting, gentle guidance, and reflective space, I offer women an opportunity to slow down, reconnect with their inner wisdom, and return to themselves during significant moments of change.
A Perspective Shaped by Experience
Experiences around fertility and body connection are often carried quietly. Many women hold layers of emotion, questions, and invisible weight while continuing to move through everyday life.
At midlife, this can deepen into a time of transition, where identities shift, the body changes, and there is a natural turning inward toward reflection, self-understanding, and what comes next.
This is something I understand not only through my work, but through lived experience.
My Experience & Why This Work Matters
At 40, I was navigating IVF with a medical prognosis of around a 5% chance of success. It was a time of uncertainty, waiting, and deep vulnerability.
Alongside clinical care, I turned inward, using creativity, visualisation, gentle ritual, and embodied practices to support myself through the process.
In quiet, dimly lit spaces, I created moments of stillness, using imagery, affirmation, and art-making to remain connected to my body rather than at odds with it.
I found ways to bring presence and care to the experience, allowing space for both hope and acceptance, while also actively nurturing a sense of possibility.
Painting moons and cycles became a way to honour the rhythms I was moving through, while intentionally using creativity and symbolism to support, influence, and hold a vision for what I was calling in.
Against the odds, my journey led me into motherhood.
More than answers, it gave me a deep understanding of how profoundly creativity, the nervous system, and self-compassion can support us through life’s most tender transitions.
How I Hold This Work
The sanctuaries and creative spaces I offer today are shaped by my own lived experience.
They are designed to create the emotional, embodied, and creative conditions where women can feel supported, grounded, and gently reconnected to themselves.
Through guided creative practice, meditation, gentle ritual, and intuitive expression, each experience offers a calm and considered space for reflection, rest, and inner connection.
Within these spaces, women are invited into:
• A sense of emotional steadiness during times of uncertainty
• Creative expression when words feel out of reach
• A renewed relationship with the body as a responsive, intuitive space
• Compassionate presence, free from pressure or expectation
Ways to Work With Me
I offer a range of creative sanctuaries supporting women through fertility journeys, midlife transitions, body confidence, and personal reconnection.
Each sanctuary can be experienced one-to-one or within small, thoughtfully held groups, with care, presence, and respect for each woman’s individual path.
These spaces allow for slowing down, deep reconnection, and the natural unfolding of creativity and self-awareness, at a pace that feels right for you.
You can work with me through:
• Fertility, IVF & Womb Connection Creative Sanctuaries
Gently held spaces supporting emotional steadiness, visualisation, intuitive art-making, and moments of reflection throughout fertility journeys.
• Midlife & Body Confidence Sanctuaries
Calm, embodied creative experiences to reconnect with the body, honour transition, and support self-trust and confidence.
• Angel Creative Sanctuary
Intuitive, symbolic spaces inspired by angelic guidance, inner wisdom, and connection to something beyond the visible. These experiences offer a gentle, reflective environment for insight, creativity, and spiritual reconnection.
• Group Sessions & Creative Workshops
Shared sanctuary spaces where women come together to create, reflect, and connect in a supportive and considered environment.
• Private Sessions
Intuitive one-to-one sessions offering space for reflection, clarity, and gentle insight, available as standalone experiences or alongside sanctuary work.
Each offering is an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and return to yourself, exactly as you are.
