Gathering community & celebrating you
Mother & family blessings
Feel celebrated, loved on, supported and connected as you prepare to birth.
A Blessing Ceremony is a beautiful mother or family-centred event to celebrate, lift up and call in your village. Think a baby shower, but honouring the birthing person/family with love, positivity and emotional receiving. Your nearest and dearest gather on the day to celebrate, love on you, provide support and connection.
I can organise and facilitate your blessing, including sending invitations, organising the running of the day, supporting your village in making it a beautiful experience through to setting up a beautiful altar circle in your space on the day. We will catch up before the day to discuss your journey so far, what you would like to honour and how your village can best support you at this time. We will carefully select rituals, ceremonies and nourishing activities and end with a celebratory feast.
The gift of a mother blessing is a beautiful way to honour a loved one and a more personal and mother-centred experience than a traditional baby shower.

Circles
A circle is a gathering. It’s a safe space for you to share, rest, connect with others and enjoy the company of others. Sometimes there is a topic or theme, like the wheel of the year, motherhood, or a celebration. You don’t have to be a certain type of person or look a certain way to come to circle (trackies, mum buns and fidget toys are very welcome here), it really is a space for everyone.
Circles often include a grounding in practise and welcome so you can leave life at the door and be present just for yourself for this time. I often weave in a guided meditation or experience to bring you some bliss, a sharing circle, a creative or therapeutic activity and a closing ritual or reading. And of course, teas and snacks with a chance to chat afterwards, because circles are about creating community! We create sharing guidelines that ensure the space feels inclusive and safe for everyone, and you are welcome to share as much or as little as you like.
When I hold a circle, my main intention is for all to feel welcome, respected, safe and celebrated. I collaborate with some beautiful local business owners in their spaces to bring events to life.
