Women's Circle
Laugh, cry and nourish your body and soul while being surrounded by other women who care. Spend time meditating, listening and talking. Creative exercises will help you learn more about yourself and the women in your circle. Circle participants comment how much it helps to get “connected” in the community and to develop a real sense of “belonging” – especially living this lifestyle. Call us to find out if this is the right group for you.
We are currently taking names for the next Women’s Circle. Please call and leave your name at 250-363-2640.
