Welcome to HERSpace: Monthly Healing & Wellness Circles for Women! Join us for an evening of connection, healing, and self-care. Our circle is a safe and supportive space for women to come together, share their stories, and support one another on their wellness journeys.

Our next event will take place on Thu Nov 21 2024 at 7:00 PM at 1970 Brock Rd. Come ready to relax, unwind, and connect with other amazing women in our community.

Whether you're looking for a night of relaxation, self-reflection, or simply some time to connect with like-minded women, HERSpace is the place to be. We can't wait to see you there!

For November’s session, join us for a nurturing workshop focused on rest and inner connection. This session invites you to explore the importance of self-care through guided sound healing and meditation aimed to support you in embracing what you need most. Experience the soothing vibrations that help you relax and deepen your inner connection. We’ll also engage in journaling exercises to reflect on our journeys. Through Somatic Experiencing you will learn ways to attune to the body’s senses and cues inviting intentional pause and rest into your life. Let’s create a supportive space where we can share our experiences and encourage one another to prioritize rest as a vital aspect of our well-being and growth.
