Women's Circle & Reiki-Infused Sound Bath: The Masks We Wear

We move through life wearing many masks. Some exist to protect ourselves. Others exist in order to please people. Some exist because we're exploring a new part of ourselves that doesn't quite fit or perhaps trying to reclaim a past version that we've lost touch with.

Wearing masks can be exhausting and often feels inauthentic. The wild thing is, many of us wear these masks all the time and especially around those we spend the most time with. They become habitual and while it doesn't usually feel good to keep them on, we don't always know how to begin the process of setting them down.

Come into Circle and explore the masks you've worn in your life, the ones you may be wearing now, and reflect on what it could feel like to take them off. Surprisingly, it can be far easier to take our masks off around those we don't know because they have zero expectations of us, so join us and begin there.

This nurturing circle will include quiet reflective time with journaling prompts & oracle cards, facilitated prompts & invitations for group sharing, & a restorative meditation & sound bath.

*This Circle is open to all who identify as women.

Words from Circle Attendees:

"The only ritual I always practice is attending Women’s Circles by Steph, of Little Scraps of Magic, LLC because these sacred nights truly align me. Despite practicing meditation for years, there was always some resistance within me preventing full surrender until I stepped into Steph’s magic. As someone who is always at women’s events and circles, I recommend every woman I know to drop into this particular circle at least once because something unexplainably transformational happens here especially. I have been to them all, and can vouch that here something touching happens. You can come with something very heavy and pour it into the circle to a safe space of understanding. You can sit down to be in stillness with yourself and amplify joy. You can sit in a circle just to be heard. We do this monthly. I can guarantee that this practice will strike some chord in you and will be transformational in some way."

What is a Women's Circle?

A Circle is a sacred space for women to intentionally gather & deepen connection to self & the collective.

Circles have been around since ancient times in many cultuers and counrties, and while modern day circles may have a different flow, you can still expect ritual & elements of ceremony to be a part of the experience. They include conversation, reflection, journaling, & meditation with a heavy emphasis on connecting to our sacred & divine feminine.

What Should I Bring?

• Yourself, with an open mind & open heart.
• A mug for tea
• A water bottle
• A notebook & pen, yoga mat, blanket (extras will be available if you forget!)
• If you wish to dress in the spirit of your inner goddess, wonderful! If you want to come cozy in your pjs or straight out of a workout or yoga class, equally as wonderful!

What is Reiki Infused Sound Bath?

“Reiki” means “life force energy” or “Universal life energy”.

Reiki is a healing energy technique that was developed in Japan in the 1920s as a means to bring energetic balance to the body. The practice is based on the ancient premise that everything is energy. It can travel across time and space, so you don't even need to be in the same proximity as someone to receive it.

I will send Reiki to everyone during the sound bath (this is considered distance Reiki since I will be directing to everyone in the room). All you have to do is set the intention to receive!

Tickets are $40 each (plus Eventbrite fees).

I hold the deepest belief that the world heals & becomes a better place for us all when we have the opportunity to tap into our gifts, cultivate our strengths, & do what lights us up. I trust that when we are connected to our truth & inner knowing, we create a ripple effect that creates a profound impact on our Earth & the people on it.
