What can you expect?
Every women’s circle is different, but each one offers a warm, safe space where you don’t have to prove anything. We begin gently with a cup of tea and take time to settle in. Then we explore the evening’s theme together. There may be space for meditation, a ritual, a creative exercise, reflection or a deeper conversation.
You’re welcome to share, listen, laugh, sit quietly or simply be present. Nothing is expected of you.

02 Connecting

03 Exploring
Exploring the theme together through conversation, reflection, meditation or a creative exercise.
04 Closing
Bringing the evening to a close and heading home gently.
Is a women’s circle for me?
You’re welcome if you’re longing for calm, genuine connection and a little time for yourself.
You don’t need any experience with meditation, rituals or women’s circles. You don’t have to be a confident speaker, and you’ll never be asked to share anything personal. If you’d rather listen at first, you belong here too.
The circles welcome women at different stages of life. You don’t need to be a mother or know anyone already. Just come as you are.
Who guides the women’s circles?
I’m Lindsay, founder of Mothers & Moon and a doula.
I create these circles because I believe in the power of genuine connection. They offer a place to step away from the rush of everyday life, where silence is as welcome as words and nothing is expected of you.
I provide warm, clear guidance and a safe atmosphere throughout the evening. You always decide what you’d like to share and take part in.

Frequently asked questions
-
Ja, absoluut. Je hoeft niemand te kennen om deel te nemen. Je wordt rustig ontvangen en krijgt alle tijd om aan te komen in de groep. Ook als je liever eerst luistert of wat afwacht, ben je helemaal welkom.
-
Je hoeft niets bijzonders mee te brengen. Draag vooral kleding waarin je je comfortabel voelt. Thee, iets lekkers en alle materialen voor de avond zijn voorzien.
-
Je reserveert je plaats via de reservatieknop bij de vrouwencirkel van jouw keuze. Daarna ontvang je per e-mail de betaalgegevens. Je reservatie is definitief zodra de betaling ontvangen is.
-
Laat het mij zo snel mogelijk weten via info@mothersandmoon.be.
Omdat de plaatsen beperkt zijn en elke avond wordt voorbereid op basis van het aantal deelnemers, gelden bij annulatie de algemene voorwaarden van Mothers & Moon.
-
Nee. Een vrouwencirkel is geen therapie en vervangt geen professionele psychologische of medische begeleiding. Het is een plek voor ontmoeting, reflectie en verbinding, waar je zelf bepaalt wat je wilt delen.
-
Ja, ook tijdens je zwangerschap ben je welkom. Je neemt altijd deel op je eigen tempo en niets is verplicht. Laat het mij vooraf even weten, zodat ik waar nodig rekening kan houden met jouw comfort.
Bij voldoende interesse organiseert Mothers & Moon ook afzonderlijke zwangerschapscirkels en postpartumcirkels.
