Children's Peace Circles
Fort Collins & Surrounding Areas
Children have so much wisdom, curiosity, and feeling within them. Listening circles create a supportive space where children are invited to share their thoughts, express emotions, and feel truly heard.
Through simple and guided practices, children learn that their voice matters while also discovering the importance of listening with kindness and respect.
Ritual Care Packages
A meaningful investment in your healing, rest, and wellbeing

Unlike many traditional wellness appointments, time is intentionally left for gentle check-ins, grounding, and integration, allowing your experience to feel deeply supported rather than rushed.

Ritual care packages begin at $575
Sacred sounds of Reiki
Explore Sacred Sound and Chanting
Wednesday February 18th 5 - 6:30 pm
This workshop is held as a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space to explore the sacred sounds of Reiki and gently open your voice in your own way and time.
Together we’ll work with Reiki kotodama chants, simple breath practices, and accessible vocal techniques to support intuition, energetic alignment, grounding, and clearing. You are invited to meet your voice exactly where it is - whether that feels quiet, expressive, hesitant, or expansive - without pressure or performance.
Through guided chanting, singing, and creative expression, we soften inner boundaries, build trust within the group, and allow sound to become a natural extension of hands-on Reiki.
Consent, choice, and self-regulation are honored throughout, so you can participate fully or gently witness as needed. You will be invited to use a handheld drum to enhance the practice - I have some you can borrow if needed.
This is a nurturing and empowering way to expand your Reiki practice, deepen your relationship with sound, and experience Reiki through resonance and vibration.
Prerequisite: Reiki Level Two attunement required.

Allowing Softness
When you feel SAFE enough to let go
So many women move through life carrying stress, tension, exhaustion, and overwhelm within the body.
Your nervous system has been holding so much.
Your body is asking for rest.
Your mind is longing for stillness.
These treatments are designed to create space for deep exhale, restoration, and reconnection - so your body can soften, your mind can quiet, and you can gently return to yourself.
Through warm oil therapies, grounding bodywork, Reiki, breath, and nervous system support, each session is thoughtfully tailored to meet you exactly where you are.
Support for the Season You’re In
Whether you’re seeking deep rest, emotional support, nervous system care, or a space to reconnect with yourself…
These circles help children develop confidence in expressing themselves while building empathy for others. By sharing and listening in a structured and supportive environment, children strengthen communication skills, emotional awareness, and a sense of belonging within the group.
The circle format encourages cooperation rather than competition, helping children feel safe, included, and valued.

About the facilitator
My work is rooted in creating spaces where people feel safe to express themselves and truly be heard. In addition to my work in wellness, Ayurveda, Reiki, and sound healing, I have spent many years supporting children and families in community and educational settings.
As a mother and longtime advocate for mindful, compassionate communication, I care deeply about helping children feel confident in their voice while learning to listen with empathy and respect for others.
Through these circles, my intention is to offer children a gentle and supportive environment where they can share their thoughts, explore their feelings, and experience the power of being part of a caring community.
Elements of the Circle
Each gathering opens and closes in circle, helping children settle, connect, and reflect together.
Depending on the group and age, circles may include:
• simple breath and mindfulness practices
• guided sharing and listening
• gentle movement
• creative or reflective activities
• cooperative games or storytelling
• closing circle and reflection
These gatherings are designed to feel both supportive and enjoyable, allowing children to explore feelings, practice communication, and connect with one another in meaningful ways.
Who these circles are for
Children’s listening circles can be offered for:
• preschools and elementary schools
• after-school programs
• homeschool groups
• community organizations
• small private groups of children
Each circle is thoughtfully adapted to meet the age, group size, and needs of the children involved.
