How to set up women's circles - a guide
About the book
Embrace the power of the circle
Frustrated by the lack of books that could teach me how to run effective and powerful circles, I decided to write one myself.
If you’re looking for ideas to run circles to suit you and your group and need that extra bit of guidance and support, then this book will help. Perhaps you’ve always wanted to run a circle but felt you haven’t got the know-how, or you feel you’re not up with the solstices and equinoxes, and are unsure about the difference between the New Moon and the Full Moon. Fret no more as my book has you covered.
This comprehensive guide includes poems, readings, meditations and
sumptuous activities that will give you the confidence you need to set up and run uplifting circles. I guide you through all the aspects of running empowering circles, including simple preparation, how to open and close a circle, recipes for incense blends, special aromatherapy oil blends and calming teas. I also include meditations and guided readings, with a handy resource section so you can print off and create your own monthly themed ritual.
After reading this book, you’ll be confident in your circle know-how
and each event will be a pleasure to share with others.
Embrace your inner woo woo. Dress like a goddess, sprinkle rose petals and waft aromatic, cleansing smoke at your door. Before long, you’ll be creating a calming haven, beautifully decorated altars, and circle spaces that will be enjoyed by women of all ages.
