Sankalpa Circles
Women’s Circles to reconnect with the wisdom of the womb

Sankalpa Circles emerge from a deep longing for a sakhi-sangha (a circle of female companions). It is a space to connect with the gentle yet powerful womb-space within us, individually yet together.
Anchored in the meaning of Sankalpa (to hold with integrity and intention) these circles are created to honour and cultivate a loving relationship with our Womb: a part of the body that holds so much, yet is often underestimated, misunderstood, or overridden.
Why the womb?
The Womb is a profoundly sacred space, both physically and metaphysically. It connects us to the spiral wisdom of nature through the menstrual cycle, while also carrying the remarkable capacity to conceive and nurture life. Yet the womb’s intelligence extends beyond reproduction. It is a seat of intuition, creativity, and deepest inner knowing — a space from which ideas, consciousness, healing, and transformation can emerge.
Historically, across many traditional and Indigenous cultures, the womb was regarded as a source of guidance and wisdom. The cycles of bleeding and ovulation were woven into the rhythms of community life. Over generations, however, womb-bearers have been systematically conditioned to disconnect from this source of power within.
The Wound of Separation
This disconnection from this wisdom center in our body marks a Wound of Separation. This wound is often reinforced & maintained by capitalist, consumerist, and patriarchal structures that privilege productivity, speed, and linear ways of living. The conditioning is to override the cyclical intelligence of our bodies in order to keep moving, producing, and performing. The truth us, our bodies are not linear by nature; they are spiral, rhythmic, and seasonal. The womb, through its cyclical wisdom, offers a pathway back to this spiral way of being: one that honours rest and emergence, death and renewal, intuition and creation. What remains today is often a limited narrative of the womb which is reduced to menstruation, discomfort, pregnancy, or birth instead of being honoured as an integral part of our emotional, spiritual, and relational ecology.
Why this matters now
We are living through an era of absurd instability: a time of poly-crisis marked by war, ecological crisis, burnout, displacement, and collective disconnection. Much of this poly-crisis is sustained by systems fuelled by greed, over-consumption, extraction, and patriarchal definitions of success that value productivity over presence and linear growth over cyclical balance. At a time like this, returning to the womb-space becomes more than personal healing: it becomes an act of reclamation & resistance. The womb invites us back into the spiral wisdom of nature, feminine leadership, intuition, and forms of power rooted in rhythm, relationship, and inner knowing. More than ever, this is a time to reconnect with the nature with-in and the nature with-out.
At the same time, womb-related conditions such as fibroids, endometriosis and reproductive health disorders are steadily increasing across the world, often with delayed diagnosis. Many of these conditions can lead to chronic pain, hormonal imbalance, and invasive medical interventions, deepening the existing wound of separation from this part of the body. While medical care is often life-supporting, healing our relationship with the womb offers another layer of intentional & impactful care; one that is preventative, medicinal, and restorative. For those who have experienced surgery, loss, or intervention, this work can become a pathway of reconnection, tenderness, and healing.
The separation many of us experience from our womb is, in many ways, a wound of separation from our intuition, sacredness, and innate power. Sankalpa Circles are a humble offering toward healing this fragmentation.
Grasslands of care
Sankalpa Circles are like grasslands of care — each of us an individual blade of grass swaying in the wind, yet together becoming a field of green.
Sankalpa Circles invite WOMBen into a gentle rhythm of connection: a space to check in, enter a guided womb practice, journal, and gather in shared reflection. Together, we cultivate friendship with ourselves and sisterhood in community.
I invite you, with all my heart and deepest womb-love, into this sacred space.
