📢 The NHS wants to hear your views on a proposal about midwife-led birthing units at County Hospital in Stafford and Samuel Johnson Community Hospital in Lichfield.

Both units would still offer antenatal and postnatal appointments, as they do now. Birthing services, which temporarily closed there since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, would close permanently.

The NHS is especially keen to hear from people who are:

☑️ Planning a pregnancy
☑️ Currently pregnant
☑️ New parents
☑️ Anyone who has recently used maternity services

No final decisions have been made yet.

To learn more and share your views, please visit the link in the comment section below.

I am looking for volunteers to do a drum healing or journey with me. You can do it online in the comfort of your own home and it will take about 30 minutes. If you feel like you have something weighing you down or playing on your mind this might help. Or maybe you have a decision to make and need space to think about it or ask for guidance. Please message me for more information and to book a session.

The Power of the Circle: Why Female Energy Circles Matter
In a world that often feels fast-paced and demanding, taking time to connect with our inner selves and with other women can be profoundly transformative. Female energy circles offer a sacred space for just that – a chance to nurture our feminine energy, find support, and celebrate the unique power we hold as women and people who identify as female.
What exactly is a female energy circle? It's a gathering of women who come together with a shared intention – to connect, share experiences, and empower one another. It's a space where vulnerability is welcomed, judgment is left at the door, and the collective wisdom of the group shines brightly.
Why are these circles so important? Here are just a few reasons:
* Connection and Support: In a society that often prioritizes competition, female energy circles foster a sense of sisterhood and support. They provide a safe space to share our joys, struggles, and everything in between, knowing we'll be met with empathy and understanding. We realize we are not alone in our experiences.
* Reclaiming Feminine Energy: Many of us have been disconnected from our feminine energy due to societal pressures and expectations. Circles offer a chance to reconnect with this vital part of ourselves, embracing our intuition, creativity, and nurturing qualities.
* Empowerment and Growth: Sharing stories and experiences within a circle can be incredibly empowering. We learn from each other, gain new perspectives, and find the strength to step into our full potential. The collective energy of the circle amplifies individual growth and transformation.
* Healing and Self-Discovery: Circles can be a powerful tool for healing emotional wounds and exploring our inner selves. Through guided meditations, sharing, and rituals, we can gain deeper insights into our own lives and begin the process of self-discovery.
* Celebrating Sisterhood: Ultimately, female energy circles are a celebration of sisterhood. They remind us of the incredible power we hold as women when we come together in unity and support. They remind us that we are stronger together.
Whether you're a seasoned circle participant or new to the concept, the power of the female energy circle is undeniable. If you're seeking connection, support, and a deeper understanding of yourself, consider joining or creating a circle in your community. You might be surprised by the profound impact it has on your life.
