I Found Myself In A Circle

I haven’t been very visible in this space for ages- I’m sorry. I haven’t even sat in other circles much this year either. And in not doing so I’ve realised just how much I need them in my life, which means there’s probably many other women needing them too. So here’s to a profound ah huh moment and sping coming! Watch this space- circle offers are on their way ✨🌹💕

It’s finally here and I’d love to share this space and sit in circle with you 💕

The Flowers women’s circle series is a beautiful invitation to reflect on ourselves with the guidance and wisdom of flowers 🌸

Come to individual circles or the whole series.
Never been to a circle and don’t want to come alone, or have a friend who you think would live this too… please feel free to share this invitation 🌹

As we reflect on the year that’s been and start to prepare for the year ahead…

My first circle of 2023 was about giving gratitude, and it has been a reoccurring theme of circles throughout the year so it seems fitting to see the year out on the same note 🙏

Sometimes life is busy and passes us by so quickly we don’t feel like we’ve achieved or received anything; sometimes the small blessings for unnoticed as they aren’t as grand as we would have hoped; sometimes it’s hard to be grateful for something when it feels like it’s outweighed by things that have a neglect impact on us and unfortunately negative experiences can speak louder to us and hold stronger to our memories than positive ones.

Learning to give gratitude for the small, the big and even the ugly moments, experiences, encounters, relationships, thoughts and receivings has such a positive effect on our lives both mentally and physically.

And so I encourage you as you see the last days of 2023 out to take a moment for yourself and reflect on all the things you have to be grateful for that happened this year (and even better to write them down so you can sit in the magnitude of them all). It may be difficult to start but once you start to find it becomes easier to let gratitude be found in many other moments, people, experiences etc and remember you can also find it in the not so desired aspects of life too.

When you have your gratitude list take a moment or two to really let the feeling of gratitude fill you, surround you and become you; let it fill your heart and soul ✨
This list won’t be exhausted, so feel free to keep adding to it as new things come to you and repeat taking a moment to feel its presence. (This can also be a lovely way for you to reflect on the year with your family too 💕)

Wishing you all a Happy New Year, in which I hope we get to sit in circle. Watch this space circle dates for January 2024 soon to be posted xx

This week has been a reminder to me of times where I’ve felt so stuck in the mud and invisible in the darkness yet such beauty, light and love has blossomed because of those times and for that I am so blessed and grateful ✨💕

May in those times for you, you remember the lotus’ journey and hold the vision that it can and will be like that for you also; that you need the mud and the dark to become the next, better version of yourself ✨

YES to this 💕 It took me way too long to learn this! It was sitting in circle a few years ago where I learnt to look inwardly at myself and love myself. Where loving myself meant living as the real me ✨ When my cup is full with self love then there’s so much more love to give unlike before when I loved everyone first I just got what was left over, if anything at all.

If you haven’t been to a women’s circle (or if you have) come join me and explore who you are and let your self-love flourish. Spots for this weekend’s circle are still available (info in comments) 🌹✨💕

I can’t wait to share this circle with you and create a space to quieten our busy minds and voices and explore sitting in grace to get a deeper inner standing of ourselves and the answers we’re searching for ✨💕🌹

HEALo!!

Sorry, I’ve been missing in action for the past couple of weeks but I’m back and ready to start offering some more circles 🌹✨💕

What I’d ♥️ to know from you is if there are any circle themes you’d like me to cover? Please comment below and I’ll definitely try and make them happen ✨

Remembering our angel babies and sending extra special love to you, mama, if you have an angel baby as part of your story. Please know your angel babies are always welcomed to be spoken of in our circles 👼✨💕

This is part of my why- over decades we have become so isolated from the support of our village women, the sharing of women’s wisdom and traditions, and the celebrations of our transitions.
When we sit in a women’s circle we reMEMBER ourselves with a group of like minded sisters, we reMEMBER our knowledge and we can once again celebrate ourselves as women, celebrate our love, celebrate our knowledge and celebrate our belonging to the circle 🌹

And may all mothers know that they are loved,
and may all sisters know that they are strong,
and may all daughters know that that are powerful,
that the circle of women may live on.
