Living with Chronic Illness can often be lonely, frustrating, deeply sorrowful, and can make us feel invisible, misunderstood, undervalued,…. etc, etc….It can also bring us in touch with inner strengths and qualities we didn’t know we had. There are, I’m sure, as many ways to be affected as there are people being affected. We are all unique and in our experiences, and their expression on any given day. All are equally valid, no matter how severe, or otherwise, our condition. When we feel truly heard and recognised in the authentic expression of our own truth, especially by others who can really relate, it can feel such a huge relief, and internal shifts can happen. We can also be light, even playful, and encourage each other to tap into their gifts as we explore our own.
We would be honoured to welcome you into a safe and comfortable space, for sharing what really needs to be heard about our individual journeys with Chronic Illness – however you define that to be. And to share what strengths and resources we may have discovered along the way.
Come as you are ~ We appreciate that each person’s experience is unique to them. There is no need for judgement, comparison or shame in sharing in this kind of Circle. Silence is also welcome.
We are aware that there are likely to be painful aspects, and we endeavour to create a space safe enough for us all the express our authentic truth. ~ And we stipulate that this is not a therapeutic environment. ~ We ask that each individual takes full responsibility for themselves.
As we are exploring the extent to which we can offer these Circles, we would welcome feedback about what would support you to be able to come. We would love to offer more, ~ perhaps a series where we could build trust and therefore go deeper, ~ if that would be appreciated.
The venue is wheelchair accessible, and parking is a few minute’s walk away.
We are asking for a donation of £5-20, to cover our costs. If this is too much for you please do get in touch. If you can contribute more, please do so, - this is what enables us to offer the lower choice for people who really need it. We are also donating our time.
To book, please email ambuka5planets@yahoo.com with Circle in the title.
