Women’s CIRCLES.
Sacred Women’s Circles Online and In-Person for Connection, Healing, and Transformation.
SACRED Women’s CIRCLE.
At its heart, a Women’s Circle is a sacred and ritualised gathering where women of all ages and life stages come together to share the truth of their existence in the present moment.
This experience of sitting in a Women’s Circle (either online or in-person) offers a unique sense of coming home to oneself, where you can see and hear your own story reflected in the mirror of the other sisters around you.
The power of the circle also teaches us to mother ourselves, nurturing our inner selves with self-acceptance, love, compassion, kindness and understanding.
In the Circle, we share what is real and alive for us—often far from the sugar-coated, polished versions of life we see on social media.
This is what makes the Circle so powerful.
By showing up in your struggles as well as your triumphs, you allow your inner radiance to shine.
This is the path of the Goddess.
A Goddess is a revered woman, admired not only for her beauty but also for her boundless capacity to love, regardless of the circumstances.
She embodies both light and shadow, embracing all aspects of herself without judgment or self-criticism.
She is a symbol of beauty, compassion, sexuality, fertility, nurturing, wisdom, creativity, intuition, and the archetype of the Divine Mother.
One of the foundational pillars of a Women’s Circle is the supportive community of like-hearted women who hold space for you and listen attentively as you share.
In the protective embrace of the circle, you allow yourself the courage to be vulnerable and to be seen without your mask, liberated from self-judgment and free to be exactly who you are in this moment.
This is a rare experience: to be in the company of women who neither comment, judge, fix, nor give you advice or feedback, but simply sit, listen, and receive the gifts of the present moment, as well as your story, which normalises their own.
Women's Circle is an invitation to stop doing and simply rest into being.
Consciously pausing to contemplate, rest, and receive embodies true femininity by harmonising the masculine and feminine aspects of the self.
This practice embraces the stillness provided by the Divine Masculine, awakening the inner guidance of the Divine Feminine and allowing insight and intuition to flourish.
To sit in a circle, unite with the sisterhood, and listen deeply with the ears of the heart is to recall ancient times when women gathered in the “Red Tent” to menstruate together, around the fire to prepare meals, or by the river to wash clothes.
When did we start feeling the need to constantly change and fix everything, and why can't we fully accept ourselves just as we are?
As women, we are conditioned from a young age to hide our flaws, be the good girl, chase unattainable perfection, and endlessly pursue the ideal of youthful femininity.
In our relentless pursuit of perfection, we often become overly critical of ourselves, allowing the inner critic to weave an unending narrative of comparison and perfectionism that distances us from the innate feminine essence uniquely expressed within each of us.
Not only do we strive for something outside ourselves, but we also deny our deep connection to our female bodies and the inherent wisdom of our biology, forgetting that as cyclical beings, we are intricately linked to the rhythms of nature.
When we sit in the formation of a circle, we embody the macrocosm within the microcosm, reminding us of the wholeness of nature and rekindling our desire for connection to ourselves and one another.
Within every woman lies a seasonal code—a treasure chest of self-knowledge that heals and nourishes from the inside out, fostering self-trust and guiding her through life's cycles and transitions.
Gathering in a Women’s Circle provides us with the space and guidance to reconnect with this inner wisdom and be witnessed by other women also wishing to feel less alone in their experiences.
Join us for our next Sacred Women’s Circle gathering and reconnect with the deep wisdom and Goddess energy within.
Specialised 2 hour Women’s Circle’s facilitated by expert guide Belinda O’Dea are available upon request for groups of women online or in-person in Perth, WA.
