Tender Hearth Circle
An Online Fortnightly
Circle of Support
To love someone through illness is tender, and often overwhelming.
To live alongside the unknown, or the possibility of loss, can feel isolating and difficult to put into words.
Tender Hearth Circle is a gently held space for those supporting a loved one through cancer or other serious illness.
Together, we sit by a shared inner fire— held in deep listening, voice meditation, prayer and song
rekindling connection, strength, and quiet hope in our hearts.
About
Tender Hearth Circle
In recent times, I was brought to my knees by my mother’s diagnosis of advanced cancer. In that moment, I felt the weight of it all—the fear, the tenderness, the unknown. And somewhere within that, a quiet invitation revealed itself:
to collapse… or to rise in strength, and become a pillar of love.
I leaned deeply into my practices, into the knowing of my soul, and I am finding a strength I never knew I had access to before.
With my studies in nada yoga, Gestalt group therapy, and rites of passage work, we will gently harness the healing power of somatic practices, nada yoga, meditation and song —offering a space where simple practices and ritual can become an anchor.
Tender Hearth Circle has grown from this place.
A space to be held while holding so much.
A space to soften, to breathe, to be witnessed—without needing to carry it alone.
What this Circle offers
In a small, gently held group, we gather to:
• be listened to without pressure to fix, explain, or perform
• soften the body and settle into a sense of support
• share space with others who understand in their own way
• be guided through simple meditation practices
• explore gentle voice meditation and accessible song
• be supported to anchor your daily ritual and self care
• rest in moments of silence, reflection, and connection
This is a space of presence over performance, and connection over doing.
No singing experience is needed.
Your voice is welcome exactly as it is.

“Grief and love are sisters, woven together from the beginning.
Their kinship reminds us that there is no love that does not contain loss and
no loss that is not a reminder of the love we carry for what we once held close.”
― Francis Weller, The Wild Edge of Sorrow: Rituals of Renewal and the Sacred Work of Grief
