If you are involuntarily childless (childless not by conscious choice (cnbc)) and interested in exploring self-empowered healing & well-being on a 1:1 basis and / or as part of a community, then you have arrived in a supportive space here.
Hello my name is Rachel, and I'm a Breath & Body Therapist. I am a 40 odd year old lady living in Derby (UK), and I am involuntarily childless.
If you feel called, I share some of my childless journey here.
I HAVE A VISION - TO 'BRING BREATH' TO THE INVOLUNTARILY CHILDLESS
I founded Papillon Breathwork in 2023, with a vision to bring Breath and Body therapy to our involuntarily childless community. To support childless women and men globally (through face to face and online connections) in their infertility and childlessness healing journey, through conscious breath & body work and creative community connection.
If you would like to join our Facebook page and/or group, for;
A breathing circle for the involuntarily childless community, focussed on self-empowered healing and well-being (physically, emotionally and spiritually) through breath and body work. The perfect space for people who are ready to instil positive changes to their life. Facing and exhaling the past, courageously inhaling a new brighter version of ourselves.

WHY HAVE WE CALLED THIS 'PAPILLON BREATHWORK'?
First and foremost, 'Papillon' is the French word for butterfly - A beautiful creature that goes through an inevitably uncomfortable transformation, through a period of rest, before finally emerging fully formed and frankly quite fabulous. This is very much how a healing journey can play out following trauma and grief, making the butterfly a powerful symbol of childless Breathwork.
Incidentally, Papillons are also delightful little dogs, of which I happen to be blessed to journey with and have played a big part in my own healing journey (and that of the clients that visit HQ). How could I not dedicate this work to them? Thank-you to my magical Paps, past and present - Yogi, Oscar, Rudi and Mojo. I will be forever grateful for your presence in my life.
CIRCLE DETAILS:
A <2 hour breathing circle connection. A supportive, confidential and judgement free space for cnbc comrades to be in circle together, supporting themselves and one another in the latest unfoldings of their personal process. The circle will be held by a compassionate Breathwork Practitioner (accredited in Psychotherapeutic breathwork), Rachel.
The circles will be held at the end of each month, aligning with the timing of hundreds of other breathers / breathing circles across the globe.
Our circles are a 3-part experience:
1) Space to share and be heard in what we are currently with (we will often use an archetype card in support of this)
2) Experience a meditative breathe together, which will be guided by Rachel
3) Integration time and popcorn share for anything that came up for the breathe that individuals would like to share.
*Note - All sharing is optional, but in my experience not much is more powerful than being in held group space together.
How to prepare for the circle:
- Please dress in something that you find comfortable / loose.
- Find a quiet space where you won't be interrupted.
- Have a yoga mat / mattress / bed / sofa available that you can lay on (whilst still being near your computer) and a blanket, cushion, a drink and your journal (if you have one) to hand. You may also appreciate a blind fold / scarf to cover your eyes during the breathe.
- Tissues might be a good shout, just in case string emotions arise (these are welcome!)
Brand new breathers are welcome. A demonstration of our breathing technique will be conducted before we start / we will walk through it together during the breathe with supportive instructions.
ATTENDEES / SECURING YOUR SPACE:
