Monthly Women's Full Moon Healing Circle

In these turbulent times, it’s easy to become overwhelmed by the chaos of news and social media. 

Nevertheless, prioritizing self-care and engaging with your community for support is essential whenever possible. These two practices play a vital role in centering yourself, reminding you of what truly matters, and preserving your well-being.

In my 20 years of experience in the healing arts, I’ve seen firsthand the immense value of one-on-one sessions. Receiving personalized attention can truly make a difference in our healing and self-connection, especially when we focus on addressing specific challenges. 

However, I’ve also discovered through facilitating and participating in women’s circles that there is a unique power when women come together in community. (For those of you who don’t know – I, Heather, was certified as a Women’s Circle Facilitator in 2016 and have guided numerous circles since then)

When we bring our whole selves—whatever we’re carrying—to the circle, something transformational happens. What may have been weighing us down individually begins to shift as we hold space together, allowing the darkness to be met with compassion and the light within us to emerge.

“…in the circles where we face ourselves, we listen like a miracle, and I reclaim the song which is mine…” ~Janice Mirikitani

What better opportunity to explore our inner selves than during the full moon?

Just as the ocean tides rise with the full moon, so do our internal experiences. In various ancient cultures, the full moon represents a time to let go of burdens or things that no longer serve us.

Each month in 2025, we will delve into the energetic theme of the full moon through the following methods:

Meditative Movement Practices

Guided Imagery Meditations

Somatic Breathwork Techniques

Journal Prompts

Healing Practices to Enhance Intuition

With this in mind, women are warmly invited to join this monthly full moon healing circle on the Monday closest to the full moon from 6 to 8 PM CST at Elemental Health Chicago.

To receive the full benefit of this healing circle, it’s ideal to attend the full series. That being said, participants will get to choose between attending a single circle, signing up for 6 months or registering for the whole year pending availability.

In order to keep the integrity of the circle strong, each circle will be limited to 10 participants.

Pre-registration is required.

For those who identify as male or prefer male-focused spaces, I only have experience facilitating women’s circles, which is why I’m focusing this offering on women or those who identify as women. However, there are many other healing circle options available for you. Here are a couple of resources to explore:

Reiki Level 1 Certification

Reiki means “universal life energy.”

This healing energy helps reduce stress, promotes deep relaxation, and harmonizes the body, mind, and spirit by balancing the subtle energetic pathways throughout the body.

Reiki Level 1 training focuses on healing thy self.

This is where you will learn how to put the energetic oxygen mask on yourself FIRST before placing it on anyone else, so to speak. When you replenish and balance your energy first, you are better equipped to help others when you feel good yourself.

In this course, there is also an opportunity to learn how to work with others, the intention is to learn how to work with loved ones and not as a professional.

This class is open to anyone who wants to learn this technique.  Which means that you don’t have to be a practitioner to participate in this class.

Licensed massage therapists who participate will receive 6 NCBTMB continuing education hours.

Level 1 training will focus on the following:

Overview of Reiki and the energy of Reiki
The history and the philosophy of Reiki
Chakra system overview
A Reiki attunement
Giving oneself a Reiki treatment
Basics of giving and receiving a treatment
