Whether you are expecting for the first time or are already a mother, whether you have recently conceived or are nearing birth, whether your pregnancy is filled with excitement or anxiety, you will be welcome in our circle. For many women, pregnancy is physically, mentally and emotionally demanding. Coming home to ourselves when we are in such constant change can be overwhelming, confusing and exhausting. Nourish yourself with time and space to sit in sisterhood and navigate the new you unfolding. 

Your facilitator, Tamsyn, is a midwife, birth educator and yoga teacher. Passionate about relationship-based care in community settings, Tamsyn aims to create inclusive spaces that welcome the diversity of needs and experiences in childbirth. She has worked for more than a decade in the NHS and also provides independent midwifery for individuals, couples and groups with an emphasis on cultivating autonomy, safety and self-trust.

Amanda, Tamsyn and Louise are hosting a trio of circles, each dedicated to the cycles of women’s lives in the journey to motherhood. Conception, pregnancy and matrescence are rites of passage which bring complex and diverse experiences. 

Gift yourself time to reflect on your unique journey by joining a weekly online sharing circle for fertility, pregnancy or motherhood. Tune in to you and connect to a community of women navigating a similar path. 

Sitting in circle is an ancient and powerful way to meet ourselves and others with acceptance and love. When we sit in circle, we can listen more deeply and speak from the heart. Without sides or angles, the circle brings a quality of softening and opening. 

There is no challenge too big or too small, no fear too overwhelming, and no anxiety too transient to be valid. All emotions and experiences are welcome. 

Our circles are a space of non-judgement where we can support each other to be honest and real. 

Come as you are.

Email fertilityrising@gmail.com or wellbylou@gmail.com if you are interested in joining the fertility or mother circle.

Amanda, Tamsyn and Louise all share a foundation in yoga, a special interest in women’s wellbeing and our own journeys to and through motherhood. We bring diverse experience from fields of fertility, nutrition, midwifery, mental health, music and therapy. 

We have all benefited profoundly from sitting in and facilitating circles and allowing our whole selves to be witnessed, which is why we want to share this gift with others.
