Join us for our April Women’s Circle - Cacao Ceremony & Healing the Sister Wound

Join us on April 11th for a special collaboration between Sacred Woman Collective x New Moon Mama. This Sunset Circle will be co-hosted by An Huynh & Krystal Praast, and the theme is Healing the Sister Wound.

We will sit in circle to hold space and share from our hearts. As women, one of the biggest gifts we can give each other is to the space be held, seen and heard. We will enjoy a guided meditation, sound healing, sharing and listening from our hearts, and learn tools to support our own personal healing journey.

A Sunset Circle is a gathering of women who come together in a non-judgmental, non-competitive environment to connect, share, and empower one another. Sunset Circles provide a space for us to show up authentically as ourselves, they foster a sense of belonging and connection, helping us remember our own personal strength and sovereignty, and the strength of our collective.

What to Expect:

• Arrive, socialize and settle in

• I'll invite you into some nervous system regulation exercises (breathing, visualization, etc.)

• We'll talk about and reflect on our topic

• We'll share - this is the best part

• We'll ground ourselves

• Bring a journal and wear something cozy

Join us for our March New Moon Circle - Honoring our Parts (IFS)

As always this will be an evening of connection, healing, and empowerment. This time, we come together to explore our Parts ... a concept coined by Richard Schwartz in his Internal Family Systems literature.

The concept is simple but deep - we are all made up of different parts... many of those parts were formed during times of trauma, with the purpose of protecting us. However, when we move beyond those traumatic (usually younger) times, it is no longer necessary for those parts to drive, but sometimes, when we're triggered, they do.

Parts Work, or IFS focuses on compassion and the idea that the mind is not a single entity, but rather multiple parts that interact with each other.

I've adapted this work as part of my TIDES program - encouraging women to think of their parts as a High Council, giving everyone a voice but always driven by their Highest Self. I'm excited to share this in a circle format and share our council with eachother.

What to Expect:

• Arrive, socialize and settle in

• I'll invite you into some nervous system regulation exercises (breathing, visualization, etc.)

• We'll talk about and reflect on our topic

• We'll share - this is the best part

• We'll ground ourselves

• Bring a journal and wear something cozy

Join us at our December New Moon Women’s Circle on Sunday, December 29th from 7:30 PM - 9 PM PST at Bohemian Studios in West Seattle.

In a world that glorifies constant productivity and speed, taking time to rest becomes an act of defiance, a radical declaration that we are worthy beyond our output. Join us for an immersive experience dedicated to exploring rest as an essential form of resistance and self-preservation.

Through guided discussions, restorative practices, and meditative exercises, we’ll uncover the transformative power of rest and the ways it can heal, empower, and reconnect us to our authentic selves. Together, we will create space to pause, breathe, and resist the urge to "do" by embracing the beauty of simply being. This event invites everyone seeking to break free from the cycle of exhaustion and reclaim their right to rest, replenish, and resist.

What’s a women’s circle?
Women's circles are gatherings where women connect, share, and support each other. Rooted in ancient traditions and revived by feminism, they promote empowerment, healing, and community.

Sounds a little woo-woo, huh?
I get it. While I love the woo, I know that it can feel trendy and a little intimidating. What makes New Moon Mama different is that it’s rooted in practicality. What we learn during our circles can be applied to real life. There are no prerequisites. The only expectation is to be present and open.

What to expect:

• We’ll start with grounding ourselves with some simple nervous system regulating exercises and a grounding meditation.

• We’ll share. We won’t try to fix anything. We’ll just hold the space for you.

• We’ll laugh, we’ll cry, we might feel all our emotions in the span of 90 minutes… which, in my opinion, is the superpower of women. I promise we will not chant or cast spells ;)

I’m so excited to have this shared experience with you. Will you join me?
Limited spaces are available.

Let's circle up and do some processing together. Whether you're grieving, parenting, overthinking or processing the outcome of the election.

What is self care? Like, actually? Is it really bubble baths, meditation and 14-step skincare routines?

According to Dr. Pooja Lakshmin, while these things are lovely, they may actually be categorized as faux self care.

“Faux self-care keep us looking outward—comparing ourselves with others or striving for a certain type of perfection. Worse, it exonerates an oppressive social system that has betrayed women and minorities.

Real self-care, in contrast, is an internal, self-reflective process that involves making difficult decisions in line with our values, and when we practice it, we shift our relationships, our workplaces, and even our broken systems.”

Join us in our next New Moon Circle, as we yet again, break down systems that don’t serve us and create ones that do:

• Debunk the myths of self care, values and boundaries

• Establish values-based self care for yourself

• Calm your nervous system, connect with support women and be held in a community of sacred sisterhood.
