About the gathering

This support circle is a calm and nurturing space for anyone emotionally touched by prematurity.

Each gathering unfolds gently and may vary from month to month, but the intention remains the same:
to offer stability, a caring presence, and a space to breathe.
Here, it is possible to feel many things at once.
Joy, worry, exhaustion, hope.
All of it belongs.

What a typical session includes

• Arrival and grounding
A gentle arrival into the space through breathing and grounding, with an invitation to settle in.
There is no obligation to speak or share.

• Guided practice (approximately 20 minutes)
The practice is adapted to the rhythm of the group, with no expectation of participation.

Depending on the month and the energy of the group, this may be:

• a Reiki-infused guided meditation

• a Reiki session

Optional, for parents or legal guardians only:

If they wish, they may request that Cami include their baby in the Reiki offered during the gathering, or that their intention for their baby be added to her Reiki grid.

Intentions are kept on the Reiki grid for a maximum of three days and are then removed.
This offering is entirely optional and is shared with care and respect.

• Time for sharing or reflection
Participants may be invited to share a word or a feeling, or simply remain present in silence.
Sharing is always optional. Listening is just as welcome.

• Integration and closing
A few moments to return to oneself, breathe, and gently exit the circle.
There is no pressure to “feel better” or “have insights” — simply space to be exactly as you are.

Who this circle is for

This circle is open to anyone touched by prematurity, including:

• Parents

No prior experience with Reiki or meditation is needed.
You do not need to speak.

Simply come as you are.
