Personal and professional wellbeing

Wellness practices helping you find

the key to yourself


Welcome to A Mindful Escape — a space for emotional clarity, personal growth, and meaningful human connection. Founded by Deyana after 15+ years of leading global teams in high-pressure corporate environments, A Mindful Escape offers  1:1 coaching and transformative workshops to support your mental, emotional, and professional wellbeing.
Whether you're navigating stress, burnout, or a major life transition, my approach blends therapeutic tools and mindful techniques to help you live the life you want to live. Based between London and Sofia, I work with expats, locals, and globally-minded individuals who are ready to live with more purpose and presence.
Through private coaching sessions—held online, in person, or even as walk-and-talks—and thoughtfully designed workshops, I offer grounded, accessible support for anyone seeking clarity, confidence, and calm in an often chaotic world.
If you're looking for holistic, heart-led, human first coaching in London or Sofia, or you're interested in attending a soulful, small-group workshop, you’re in the right place.

I also offer bespoke corporate programs and retreats in Bulgaria and the UK. If you are interested in a bespoke package please get in touch.

    Coaching is deeply personal, and I always aim to deliver a tailored approach to every session. Living between cultures, identities, or cities like London and Sofia can feel disorienting—but you're not alone. With roots in both the UK and Bulgaria, I understand the nuances of navigating stress, burnout, and transitions in multicultural, high-pressure environments. Whether you’re an expat adjusting to change, a local feeling overwhelmed, or a global soul in search of direction, my coaching is here to guide you gently back to yourself.

What Makes A Mindful Escape special?

A Mindful Escape stands out by offering more than just wellness retreats or one-off workshops—I create immersive, soul-nourishing experiences rooted in emotional depth, psychological insight, and real-world transformation. While many retreats focus solely on surface-level relaxation, AME integrates coaching methodology, emotional intelligence, and lived corporate experience to meet people where they truly are: at the edge of burnout, in life transitions, or quietly questioning their direction.

Our standout difference lies in the intentional design of every experience. Whether it’s a group retreat in a serene natural setting or an urban workshop in London or Sofia, each AME offering is shaped around emotional restoration, nervous system recovery, and connection—with oneself and others. With a strong foundation in coaching and facilitation, we go beyond “wellness” as a trend, and guide our guests through evidence-informed frameworks, real conversations, and grounded practices that bring lasting clarity and calm.

Our retreats and workshops attract a diverse, global audience—from expats to executives—because they are created with cultural nuance, psychological depth, and human warmth. The AME brand resonates not only because it feels safe and real, but because it empowers people to return to daily life with insight, intention, and renewed resilience.

Myself and A Mindful Escape are here to help you on your journey of reconnecting with yourself, thriving and not just surviving day after day.
