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 professionals, 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 rooted in years of experience leading teams and working with people. We can all appreciate a little calm and a direction in a chaotic world, delivered in a friendly, connected and supportive way.
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.

What Makes A Mindful Escape special?
A Mindful Escape was created from experience. Deyana’s background, working with some of the biggest names in travel and hospitality for 15+ years while running large global teams, ensures all services offered stem from experience and are rooted in wellbeing.
She understand first hand the importance of balance in both our personal and professional lives, in order to be able to feel and perform our best. This ethos was recognised by LuxLife awarding A Mindful Escape ‘Best emerging wellbeing provider of 2025’ which is a great honour for us just 2 years in.
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.
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.
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.

1:1 coaching in London and Sofia
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.
