Standing on Solid Ground Women's Circle

29th October, 2025

As the year begins its final arc, October invites us to reflect and recalibrate, reassess our priorities, explore our core beliefs and values, and ask ourselves if we are walking our talk. Are we standing on solid ground, aligned with what we know to be true, or are we caught in the pull of distractions? We warmly welcome you to join us for Standing on Solid Ground, a sacred women's circle to explore how we consciously choose to show up in the world. Life can pull us in many directions, scattering our attention and energy until we lose sight of ourselves. We give away pieces of who we are to nurture, care, achieve, and support. But there comes a moment when we can no longer deny our needs. October's energy reminds us to return to our centre, to what grounds us, nourishes us, and keeps us anchored in the essence of who we are. Ask yourself: What do I stand for? Where is my energy flowing? Am I living in alignment with my core beliefs and values, or am I being pulled in hollow or misaligned directions? This circle is a sacred gateway back to yourself, a homecoming to solid ground where you can reconnect with your truth and step forward with clarity. It offers a space of safety, connection, and belonging, where you can bring all parts of yourself, your vulnerabilities, frustrations, imperfections, and perfections and honour the woman you are in your wholeness. Why Join the Circle? To align with your truth and reclaim the energy and focus that are rightfully yours. Whether this is your first women's circle or you've sat in many, this space belongs to you. For it is where you can be seen, heard, held, witnessed, and valued for exactly who you are. It's a chance to pause, breathe, and listen deeply to the wisdom within, supported by the sisterhood's collective strength. About the Circle In this sacred circle, we revere the space, honouring principles that ensure safety, authenticity, and connection. These guidelines are the foundation of our shared experience—a sanctuary where we gather as equals, free from judgment or hierarchy, and come home to ourselves. We meet in a circle without corners, podiums, or hierarchy. Each voice matters equally. One woman speaks at a time while the rest hold space with compassion and presence. We use "I" language to honour our personal experiences and speak from the heart, trusting the courage it takes to share our truths. You are your authority. Share only what feels true and comfortable for you in the moment. There is no space for advice, fixing, therapy, or feedback. Instead, we hold the quiet power of simply witnessing each other. Judgments are left at the door. Here, we gather without judgment, comparison, competition, or criticism. What is shared within the circle stays within the circle. This mutual respect and care are what make the space sacred. These parameters weave the container for a harmonious, enriching experience where the magic of sisterhood can flourish. In this space, free from competition, comparison, or judgment, an unshakable knowing arises: I am safe. I belong. Helpful Tips to Prepare To help you settle in and feel at ease, here are a few suggestions: Wear comfortable clothing that allows you to relax fully. Bring a water bottle to stay hydrated. You might like to bring a wrap, a cosy blanket, or a favourite cushion, although we provide plenty of cushions and bolsters to ensure your comfort. Feel free to bring anything that helps you feel grounded, whether a journal, a meaningful token, or simply an open heart. This is your time. Let yourself arrive fully, knowing you are stepping into a space of belonging and care. Let this circle be where your truth emerges, your spirit softens, and your heart remembers its innate wholeness.
