Women's Circles
Safe, nurturing spaces for women to pause, reconnect, and be supported. These gentle, heart-led gatherings offer time away from everyday life to rest, reflect, and experience the power of sisterhood.
The Power of Circle
Throughout history, women have gathered in circles to share, support, and heal together. In our busy modern lives, these sacred spaces of connection are more valuable than ever.
Annelie's Women's Circles in Frome offer a sanctuary from the demands of daily life. Here, you can put down the 'to-do' lists, step away from the constant doing, and simply be - held by a community of women who understand.
Each circle is unique, woven together with meditation, gentle yoga or movement, sound healing, cacao ceremony, breathwork, and the simple magic of being witnessed and heard. You don't need to share if you don't want to - your presence is enough.

What to Expect
Women's Circles typically last 1.5-2 hours and are held monthly in Frome. Sometimes there's optional yoga beforehand for those who want to ease into the evening.
You'll be welcomed into a beautiful space prepared with candles, cushions, and soft lighting. The circle opens with a grounding practice to help you arrive fully and leave the outside world behind.
What happens in circle varies each month but may include: guided meditation and visualisation, gentle movement or restorative yoga, sound baths, breathwork, cacao ceremony, working with crystals and guidance cards, and sharing circles.
You're never required to speak or share - it's perfectly fine to simply be present and witness. What's shared in circle stays in circle, creating a safe container for vulnerability.
Bring water, a blanket or shawl, and a journal if you like. Wear comfortable clothing. Everything else is provided.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be spiritual to attend?
Not at all. Women's Circles are for anyone seeking connection, rest, and a supportive community. Whatever your beliefs, you're welcome here. Take what resonates and leave what doesn't.
Will I have to share personal things?
Sharing is always optional. Some women find it healing to share; others prefer to listen and witness. Both are equally valuable. You'll never be put on the spot or pressured to speak.
What is a cacao ceremony?
Cacao ceremony involves drinking ceremonial-grade chocolate (not like regular hot chocolate!) in a ritual setting. Cacao is a gentle heart-opener that has been used in sacred practices for thousands of years. It's completely optional.
Can I bring a friend?
Absolutely! Many women find it easier to attend their first circle with a friend. All women are welcome, and the more diverse our circle, the richer the experience.
