The Importance of a Healing Space for Women at Workhouse Wellness
In a world that feels increasingly busy, noisy, and complex, it’s easy to lose touch with ourselves. While building routines, nurturing careers, and living healthy lives are beautiful pursuits, there’s something uniquely powerful about gathering in a circle with like-minded women—where we can speak freely and be fully seen.
For me, it’s been a lifelong journey to find my voice and learn how to use it. That’s the heart of why we’re creating this space: a Women's Circle where every woman is encouraged, supported, and heard. A place to feel grounded in connection, wrapped in care, and uplifted in community.
We’re so honored to hold this space for you. We hope you’ll join us this summer.

Why Women Need Sacred, Healing Spaces
Women thrive in community and support, and research shows that gathering together in small, intimate groups can have a profound impact on mental health. According to a study by the National Institute of Mental Health, women who engage in social interactions experience lower stress levels and reduced anxiety compared to those who isolate themselves.
Our Women’s Circle provides a safe, sacred space where women can show up as they are, without judgment, and be heard. This type of healing community has been linked to increased self-awareness, emotional regulation, and long-term well-being.
The Science Behind the Women’s Circle Experience
We intentionally designed our Women’s Circle with evidence-based practices that nurture emotional healing and promote relaxation. Here’s a closer look at how our offerings support holistic well-being:
1. Guided Conversations: Healing Through Storytelling
We begin each circle with a guided conversation centered around a monthly theme, such as joy or self-compassion. Studies in narrative therapy show that verbalizing experiences in a group setting can significantly improve mental clarity, reduce anxiety, and foster a greater sense of community. In fact, research by the American Psychological Association shows that verbal processing of emotions can help regulate feelings and bring about cognitive shifts that lead to healing.
2. Sound Bath: Proven Relaxation for the Body & Mind
A central part of our circle is the sound bath, a 30-minute experience that uses therapeutic sound frequencies, such as singing bowls and gongs, to induce a deep sense of relaxation. Research indicates that sound therapy can lower blood pressure, reduce cortisol (the stress hormone), and enhance the body’s immune function.
The vibrations of sound are absorbed by the body, leading to emotional balance and physical relaxation. Studies have even shown that sound therapy can help ease symptoms of chronic stress and promote a positive mood, which are essential for long-term emotional health.
3. Nourishing Tea & Bites: Grounding Your Experience
The calming effects of chamomile and lavender are well documented. Studies have shown that chamomile tea can significantly reduce anxiety and promote better sleep. Similarly, lavender has been shown to lower cortisol levels, which can help reduce feelings of stress and encourage relaxation. Paired with nourishing bites, these offerings support a balanced experience for the mind and body.
4. Limited, Intimate Group Setting
The power of the small group setting is key to fostering a space where everyone feels seen and heard. Research shows that group therapy in an intimate environment creates a sense of safety, promoting emotional openness and supportive healing. By keeping the circle small, we ensure that each woman has a chance to connect deeply and experience true transformation.
