Circle Work: Healing in Community

Circle work is a way to share personal growth in a safe social container.

Our Circles are for Learning: learning, developing, and practicing new skills to support us as individuals- awareness practice, meditation, self-connection, self Resourcing, Self-Compassion, Insight into our behaviors, feelings, and needs, AND for gaining interpersonal- social-emotional-communication skills

Our Circles are for Healing: A safe place to Be Seen, Get support, Be heard, Be witnessed in our unique human experience. The therapeutic value of being truly seen in our authenticity and vulnerability can be one of the most valuable supports for personal growth and transformation.

Our Circles are for Integration: Our bodies and minds are full of unresolved, unprocessed experiences, sometimes stored as big and small traumas. Circle gives us a place to get support to digest and assimilate the past for healing, integration, and understanding in our lives.

A Safe Container: Circle work guidelines help us support diversity, autonomy, connection, and safety.

This offering comes out of a deep desire to create more Resourced Communities of Mutual Support and Aliveness. This is a place to learn the skills and practice with others in community, empowering a Nurturance Culture.

How can we have relationships that honor everyone’s needs for Autonomy, Inclusion, Connection and Safety? Learning the skills of Compassionate Communication empowers us to have better self-awareness and attunement to our Life Energy, and the skills to convey this to others. Empathy, Compassion and Intuition are also qualities that can be developed through Practice. We will learn skills to communicate through challenges and conflicts ( within and without) .
