So what is a women's circle?

Women’s circles are a gathering of women of all ages.

The circles help by providing a safe space for women to explore their true selves, where they can find their voice, reclaim their power, and remember their self-worth. This can be done through discussions, journaling, meditations, creative activities/crafts, ….

It can also be a safe space to share, connect with and support other women.

It is a space of rest, growth and connection for yourself and for the group.

Why are women’s circles important?

Several generations ago women would gather to launder their clothes, cook, raise children together.

Nowadays, it is rare for women to gather in spaces where they can open themselves up about their joys, struggles and emotions and be supported without judgement.

  • 29% of women are treated for a mental health condition
  • 1 in 4 women are going to be diagnosed

We need space and time to rest, process and grow away from the constant caring and numerous responsibilities.
