A sacred safe space for women who have experienced pregnancy loss
Together we will hold space for one another, sharing about our journey after loss. We will support each other as we talk about feelings that show up such as guilt, shame, grief, blame, doubt, pain, withdrawal, emptiness etc. We will end each circle with a ritual or meditation to help heal and renew ourselves.
*For clients who have experienced infant loss we have individually tailored support available at any time, please reach out by email hello@thewombwoodstock.ca or phone 519-539-9944.
