Women’s Medicine Circle
“When women come together and make a commitment to each other to be in a circle with a spiritual center, they are creating a vessel of healing and transformation for themselves, and a vehicle for change in their world.”
- Jean Shinoda Bolen
Beloved Women…
It is in this spirit and with this intention that we are inviting you to come together with a circle of women for individual and collective healing through the practice of psilocybin medicine ceremony.
The first ceremony is only the beginning…
Our intention is to make this a regular offering that can become a sanctuary of solace and healing, you can return to again and again. A place we can come for the sacred practice of healing in community. To journey together, dancing our prayers, singing our hearts out, falling apart and rising strong in a beautiful community of women.
Whether you join the first circle or join in along the way, this is a medicine sangha of sacred sisterhood, where we can come as we are, be celebrated in our wholeness and fall apart to be re-birthed.
Women have been gathering in circles to heal and pray, since time immemorial. “Together, we will walk each other home.” - Ram Das
What you will get from the experience:
~Deep dive individual healing.

“A circle of women may just be the most powerful force known to humanity. If you have one, embrace it. If you need one, seek it. If you find one, for the love of all that is good and holy, dive in. Hold on. Love it up. Get Naked. Let them see you. Let them hold you. Let your reluctant tears fall. Let yourself rise fierce and love gentle. You will be changed. The very fabric of your being will be altered by this, if you allow it. Please, please allow it.”
―Jeanette LeBlanc
