Womens Circles grew out of a desire to provide more satisfying, intimate and meaningful ceremonies to mark the milestones in women’s lives, such as getting married, having babies and birthdays and celebrating these moments with our loved ones. The Retreats and Monthly Circles emerged from demand in the marketplace and allowed women to deepen their connection to themselves and each other over a longer period of time.

“The lack of rituals and sacred celebrations in western society leaves many people feeling isolated and empty. Womens Circles bring us back to the very basics. It is inspiring to see the love, peace and joy that women bring forth when sitting in Circles as well as the sense of community and the feeling of connection to each other.” Mim Bartlett
