In this unique exploration, Nici will bring her knowledge of grief work, combined with her own experience of losing her Mum and the realisation that we are laregely wildly unsupported to navigate this loss.

Together we will explore how to hold grief with more awareness and compassion. Nici will guide and support the group throughout. In each circle she will share a little about grief tending, offer a guided meditation, hold the space for sharing and witnessing each other. Nici always closes the circles with some heart nourishment and a gentle sense of soothing.

Some of the themes we will explore include: how to create a sense of safety and home, learning to mother ourselves, cultivating a relationship beyond physical loss, honouring loss through ritual and moving grief through the body.

In one sense, of course, we are never really ‘motherless daughters’. We continue our relationship with our Mothers far beyond their physical loss. It is also important to acknowledge the different ways we can lose our Mothers, which includes but is not limited to the death and passing of the physical form. In previous circles, we’ve welcomed people who are estranged from their Mothers or whose Mothers are physically or mentally unwell. All are welcome.
