CIRCLES AND WORKSHOPS
Honouring the loss of an abortion support circles
Would you like to come together with a small group of women and journey together over 4 weeks, bringing healing and honouring to your experience of abortion?
What is a holistic support journey?
A holistic support journey is rooted in the awareness that in order to truly bring healing to the challenging and lonely experience of abortion, then we must find ways that we can bring the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of ourselves back into balance.
Over 4 weeks, one evening a week, I shall guide you through this journey.
Each circle will be centred around the elements of air,water,fire and earth. The elements hold the root of the circle, a place where they can offer their healing and wisdom to this honouring journey.

GRIEF TENDING FOR PREGNANCY LOSS
In the days before solstice, myself and the wonderful basket weaver Elizabeth Crawford will be coming together to hold a space for pregnancy loss.
This invitation is for women and all those who have journeyed through any experience of loss, such as abortion, miscarriage, stillbirth or late termination.
We shall hold a space for the sharing of stories, connecting with your womb and weaving a small altar basket from rushes, textiles and other gathered materials.
As you weave together a basket, the invitation is to gently open a new path of connection with yourself, creating a doorway to hold your experience with hands of compassion and forgiveness.
We will hold a space where you, your stories, your sorrow and your hearts are all welcome.
‘When we make with our hands, we bring space to our minds and hearts.’
We look forward to welcoming you into this space,
India and Elizabeth
