Di
In 2015 in amongst my cotton wool brain & grief, it was gently suggested by the gorgeous Amala, that I come along to a Women’s Wellbeing Gathering. I nearly had a breakdown over the thought of going & sharing space with 60 women. I went & was held & nurtured by all these amazing women through lots & lots of tears. By the end of that first weekend those tears were mainly tears of laughter & I’m glad I honoured myself & jumped off the edge to fly. So now each year, I get to spend a weekend with new & old friends & I LOVE IT !!!
Thank you to all you beautyfull women who take the time out for you to share in such a special weekend. For me it is “mindfulness”, just to BE & SHINE. Thank you.
