We are currently figuring that out together! We are evolving the Red Tents together. Hoping that …. We are open, warm and welcoming to all women and women with babes in arms. We gather on a new moon or a full moon. Gathering together to find a space for stillness, reflection and rest. Sharing stories to recognise and respect our femininity. Connecting with the seasons, creating a space where women feel safe to connect and share. We begin our tents by lighting a candle and then we ‘check-in’ with each other, using an object … i.e. talking “stone” to share how we are feeling and anything that we would like to say. Women don’t have to share, only if they feel they would like to. We also end our tents using the “talking stone”, so women can ‘check-out’. Some women offer to lead a session, sometimes a song, sometimes a guided meditation, sometimes some massage. Sometimes we discuss Issues that seem to be resonating in the group. Some women choose not to participate in some of the activities and may just rest and relax
