“Healing circles are safe havens. They help us step out of ordinary time into a safe and accepting environment in which we can explore our healing.” ~ from Healing Circle Global
There is something magical that takes place when we gather together in a spirit of trust, compassion, and mutual support. This magic often times facilitates emotional, spiritual, and sometimes even physical healing.
Gathering in sacred circle is an ancient wisdom tradition.
The shape of the circle itself represents wholeness, equality, and the continuous flow of energy.
At the heart of a healing circle is the understanding that we all carry wisdom within us, and that healing often happens through connection with others in a safe, intentional space.
What makes sacred healing circles especially powerful is that they honor both individual and collective healing - recognizing that as we heal ourselves, we contribute to the healing of others, and as others heal, they support our healing too.
The circle becomes a container for transformation, where participants can release what no longer serves them, and embrace new possibilities with loving support.
A crucial aspect of healing circles is learning to "hold space" for others. This means staying present with someone's experience without trying to change it or make it better. It's about offering the gift of your complete attention and acceptance, trusting in each person's innate wisdom and capacity for healing. Katie Kurtz, someone who has deeply inspired my yearning to facilitate healing circles, shares this:
"holding space is the ability to create a container to hold and be with
yourself and each other with active presence, unconditional regard
and conscious connection. - not to fix or judge, but rather to see,
hear and honor the fullness of our shared humanity."
Is your heart yearning for connection?
It is mine and Andi's intention that these sacred gatherings are both
a ✨ BELONGING ✨ you belong here and there is absolutely no prerequisite to join, just come exactly as you are.
​
a ✨ BECOMING ✨who you are when you can completely drop your veils and be seen and embraced for your true self and authenticity.
✨ In community we will cultivate a sanctuary for healing.✨
These sacred healing circles can benefit anyone seeking deeper connection and emotional wellbeing.

These healing circles are open to all and there is no prerequisite to participate. We understand this may be completely new to you. And there is no pressure to share because just your very presence is enough and is appreciated.
The key to healing is patience and gentleness. The heart opens at its own pace. The circle provides a safe container where each person can explore their heart's depths while being held in loving awareness by the group.

Founder of The Sacred Moon Room ~ Yoga Teacher, Reiki Master Teacher, and Global Sisterhood Sacred Circle Facilitator.
​Gathering in sacred circles has been an integral part of my life for the past 10 years. Whether I am facilitating or participating, from my experience, nothing compares to the healing power of sharing from the heart in community with others who gift you their full presence, deep support and loving acceptance. Not only I have I experienced profound emotional healing, but I have overcome deeply rooted pain manifesting in the physical. I am proof that when we come together in the spirit of trust, compassion and mutual support, magic happens.
​
I couldn't be more honored to be facilitating these healing experiences with Andi. I have first-hand witnessed Andi's healing journey of self-love and transformation to wholeness. She has an inspiring ability to hold beautiful space for others. When I think of Andi, I think of a quote by Thich Nhat Hanh, because she embodies it in an amazing way..."The most precious gift we can offer others is our presence. When mindfulness embraces those we love, they will bloom like flowers". ~ Thich Nhat Hanh
​
It is our intention that when you join us in circle you too will experience the magic and the healing!
>> Meet Andi Moore
Life Coach and Founder of Living Bold.
My journey has shown me that healing is both personal and collective—a path we walk individually yet never truly alone. In my deepest moments of transformation, I longed for a space where I could be seen, heard, and supported without judgment, a space where others understood the courage it takes to confront pain and choose growth. Healing circles embody this sacred connection, reflecting the same principles that have guided my own healing: awareness, self-rediscovery, transformation, and self-love. Just as I had to peel back layers to remember who I truly am, healing circles offer a space for others to do the same, held in the safety of community. They are a reminder that healing isn’t meant to be done in isolation but in the presence of those who can witness our journey, hold space for our evolution, and walk beside us as we step into the fullest expression of ourselves.
I am so excited to be offering these healing circles with Erika! She is a radiant force of light, a deeply beautiful healing guide who moves with grace, wisdom, and an undeniable presence of love. From the moment I stepped into her space, I felt a deep sense of safety. Her energy is both grounding and expansive, a balance of strength and softness that invites healing in the most natural, effortless way. What Erika’s healing means to me is freedom—freedom to let go, to trust, to surrender, and to fully embrace the journey of becoming. She reminds me that healing is not about reaching a destination but about allowing ourselves to be held, to be open, and to receive the love that has always been within us.
