🌸 Self-Compassion Dance & Circle 🌸
📅 Thursday 25th September
Whittington Village Hall. A community hub & beautiful space for hire
⏰ 7:30 – 9ish pm
💰 £15 – £5 (pay what feels right)

I’m now in my 3rd year of holding space.

When I first began, I had a baby and a toddler. The only time I spent child-free was at medical appointments. I felt like a shell of who I once was, exhausted, touched-out, and deeply disconnected from myself and community.

That’s when I started these circles, as a way to begin filling myself back up.

From the very beginning, people showed up and continued to show up. Over these years, every person who has stepped into circle has carved a place in my heart. Many of those faces have become friends I’ll be forever grateful for.
Whether it’s a handful of us gathered closely or a room full of faces, each circle carries its own kind of magic. It’s the depth, the connection, and the way we show up for one another.
These circles are simple, yet sacred.
We create a container where we can show up as we are, no judgement, no fixing, no pressure to be anything but real.
And if I ever need to pause, when my own energy levels are depleted, this community understands. They are there for me, just as I am for them. 💜

That’s the beauty of it, a circle that holds us all.
I also love attending other sessions that different facilitators hold, or even simply meeting for a cuppa or a walk. Connection comes in many forms, and it all nourishes the same need in us to feel seen and supported. I never say I am a finished product or that I am completely healed but on a continuous journey and am greatful to have some hands to hold if needed along the way🌿

Truthfully, every time I think I’m too tired to hold another session, I remember the magic that happens when we gather. I always leave lighter, softer, more connected, just as much as anyone else who attends.

💌 You don’t need to book in, but it’s always lovely to have an idea of numbers. If you’re thinking of coming along, reach out and let me know. And if you have any questions, I’m here.

🌿 Thank you to everyone who has been part of this journey so far. Your presence has shaped these circles into what they are today. I carry you all in my heart. 🌙✨

🌸 Self-Compassion Dance & Circle 🌸
📅 Thursday 25th September
📍 Great Whittington Village Hall
⏰ 7:30 – 9ish pm
💰 £15 – £5 (pay what feels right)
🙏 All Welcome

We’ll begin in a small circle, move into dance with music lovingly provided by the lovely Lorna Jane, followed by soothing singing bowls and close with herbal tea and an optional share.
A nourishing evening dedicated to self-compassion. 💜

“Self-compassion begins to blossom when we can accept our imperfections and hold our suffering with kindness.” Tara Brach

Life can feel like a tug-of-war… between wanting to keep pushing forward and needing to slow down. And so often, that’s when our own inner critic pipes up the loudest, giving us grief when we’re tired, stressed, or lacking in self-love.

💭 A little self-compassion exercise to try right now:

Place your hand gently over your heart.

Take a slow breath in, and a longer breath out.
Silently say to yourself: “I am doing the best I can. May I give myself the kindness I need.”

Give yourself 10 minutes to listen to this beautiful track while you breathe or choose your own song that feels soothing.
💬 I’d like to hear, when does your inner critic show up most strongly, and how do you practise self-compassion in those moments?

We’re all navigating our own journeys, and when we come together, it’s easier to remember we don’t have to do it alone. 🌙
