Ride Home To Your True Self

I'd like to invite you on a bike ride,​

Except this is no ordinary ride. The shape of the route is rather special, & you can join without even leaving the sofa...

​Hi I'm Sarah the Heartful Cyclist, ​
Mental Health First Aider® and author of the mindful poetry book & podcast 'Cycle Your Heart Out'.

Heartful Cycling saved me from a life of anxiety and fear, and led me down a path of peace I'd once only dreamed of. I've been creating heart-shaped bicycle routes around the world since 2011 to inspire you to ride home, to your true self.  So far I've made routes in 12 countries, including London, Barcelona, Rio & Paris!

Take a ride to your inner world with my 5 Minute Forest meditation...

What is Heartful Cycling?

Being a Heartful Cyclist is about feeling empowered to cycle a heart-route, embrace the present, and follow your own path. It's about listening to your heart with deep compassion, allowing your love to spin out on to all those around you, for a more peaceful loving world. 

To help you find more inner peace, me and my dog Maya would love to invite you on an inner ride with us...​

“I highly recommend this book,
even if you have never been or intend to get on a bicycle the
​journey through the poems will
inspire and touch your heart.”

​- Kathy Ward
TEDx Speaker, CEO and Founder of Mindful Academy International​

The Heartful Ride

No past, no future
​Only the spinning of your wheels
The rhythm of your breath
And the beat of your heart
Cycling your heart out
Each route a reminder
Digging deep into your soul
And the end destination?
​Your true self

My Story
I used to long for a vacation from my mind, and a mute button on my sensitivity. 
Owned by fear, a stranger in my own skin, I'd become so focused on finding love, that I'd lost sight of my entire inner world, which had been crumbling the whole time...

TESTIMONIALS

This book is a wonderful adventure of the heart. It maps a journey of self discovery from self criticism, to self loving, from fear to inner peace. It is a poetry book full of mindfulness insight and wisdom. It points the way to liberation and the way of self compassion and fun. A must have for all generations, that touches our shared common humanity.

- Sinéad McShane - Mindfulness Teacher
"Creating my heart route added a touch of spice and fun at exploring new places. It got me out of my head and opened my radar to look around at new possibilities. It also helped me to start healing myself and create a heart centred business in line with my mission, passion and purpose".

- Kate, Entrepreneur
"I love what you are doing and how you're creating a greener and sustainable way of living. I enjoyed my heart shaped ride and found that creating my own affirmations really helped me to focus, move forward & make clearer decisions for myself, thank you"!

- Colette Holt, 
"Sarah's workshop reminded me how meditative a bike ride can be. For someone who just meditates on a chair at home, visualising cycling brought me a lot of peace, and I feel like that was replicated when I went for a cycle the next day. The heart route is something I want to start doing for sure, I love the idea of it."

Sarah’s workshop gave me the chance to reflect on my thoughts and experiences lately. ​I got the chance to relax, both body and mind and get in touch with my inner self. The bike meditation was very interesting and made me realise that I need to work on my impulsiveness and take things more calm and slow. The map drawing brought together some of the most meaningful places that I've seen in Barcelona so far, and the road between each stop is fairly new which gives me an opportunity to keep exploring.
