Women's Circles
A Sanctuary for Empowerment and Connection
Women's healing circles are sacred gatherings where women come together to share their stories, support one another, and engage in collective healing. Rooted in ancient traditions, these circles offer a safe and nurturing space for women to explore their inner worlds, express their emotions, and find solace in the shared experiences of others. Through practices such as meditation, storytelling, and ritual, participants can connect with their deeper selves and with each other, fostering a sense of community and belonging. Our circles are gently guided creating a structured yet flexible environment, allowing each woman to feel heard, valued, and respected.
Attending women's healing circles is essential for many women who seek a reprieve from the demands and challenges of daily life. In a world where women often juggle multiple roles and responsibilities, these circles provide a unique opportunity to pause, reflect, and rejuvenate. They offer a supportive network that can help women navigate personal and collective challenges, such as trauma, stress, and societal pressures. The benefits of participating in women's healing circles are profound and multifaceted. Women often report increased emotional resilience, improved mental health, and a deeper sense of self-awareness and empowerment. Additionally, these gatherings foster lasting friendships and a powerful sense of solidarity, reminding women that they are not alone on their journey and that their voices matter

Cacao Ceremony
What is a Cacao Ceremony?
A cacao ceremony is a sacred, heart-opening ritual that involves drinking pure, ceremonial-grade cacao (chocolate in a purer form) in a group setting, often accompanied by meditation, music, and intentional practices. Originating from ancient Mesoamerican cultures, where cacao was revered as a divine plant medicine, these ceremonies are designed to promote inner healing, connection, and spiritual growth.
Benefits of a Cacao Ceremony
1. Heart Opening
Cacao is known as a heart-opening plant medicine. It can enhance feelings of love, compassion, and connection, allowing us to open our hearts and deepen our relationships with ourselves and others.
2. Emotional Healing
The gentle yet powerful energy of cacao can help release stored emotions and traumas, providing an opportunity for deep emotional healing and cleansing. It encourages us to confront and process unresolved feelings in a safe, supportive environment.
3. Enhanced Meditation and Mindfulness
Our cacao ceremonies incorporate guided meditations and mindfulness practices. The theobromine in cacao can enhance focus, clarity, and relaxation, making it easier to enter meditative states and remain present during the ceremony.
4. Spiritual Growth and Connection
The ceremonial setting provides a space for profound personal insights and spiritual growth. It can help quieten the conscious mind and enable easier access to intuition. It is from this stillness that we are able to tune into and connect to our true and authentic selves and receive aligned inspiration for how we can bring joy and balance into our lives.
5. Improved Mood and Well-being
Cacao is rich in compounds like theobromine, magnesium, and antioxidants, which can elevate mood, reduce stress, and promote a sense of well-being. Drinking ceremonial cacao can lead to feelings of euphoria, relaxation, and increased vitality.
6. Creativity and Inspiration
The stimulating properties of cacao can enhance creativity and inspiration. You may experience increased mental clarity and a flow of creative ideas during and after the ceremony.
7. Community and Connection
Sharing the experience with others can create bonds of friendship, support, and mutual understanding.
Cacao ceremonies offer a unique, holistic approach to emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. By incorporating the sacred elements of cacao, meditation, and community, these ceremonies provide a powerful space for heart-opening, healing, and personal transformation. Whether seeking emotional release, spiritual growth, or simply a deeper connection with oneself and others, a cacao ceremony can be a profoundly enriching experience.
During our Women's Healing Circle, we will prepare and serve the cacao in individual small cups. You will be invited to focus on your healing intention and to drink your cacao slowly and mindfully. It may feel right to place one hand over your heart centre, allowing you to connect in with your own heart energy!
This leads us beautifully into the rest of our evening and boosts the effects of the healing you receive.
You will be welcomed into an authentic, safe and friendly circle where incredible women come together to connect, heal, share, support and empower one another.
Would you benefit from being around authentic, supportive women who are true to themselves? Would you like the opportunity to make new friends? Do you feel the strong desire to be really heard - to share what is in your heart without judgement? Do you crave connection with other women on a deeper level? Do you want to be in an environment that fosters genuine connection rather than competition?
More and more women are being called back to circle and for good reason. Anyone who has been to circle will know the collective energy of women sharing, healing and championing each other is incredible. Don’t worry it isn’t woo woo and weird - women have been coming together for centuries to share their sister stories and empower each other.
