Circles and Councils
Are we at the beginning of something? Is there a new vibe emerging, I feel that more and more people are disheartened and non plussed by the illusion of capitalism which has only tried to be ‘an answer to the worlds organisation’ for 300 years or so and the mess it spews is so destructive there are few humans that are not impacted and destroyed by it. Perhaps this emerging vibe is not such a new vibe in reality its a deep grounded wisdom within us that has not many generations since been known and lived by. With the threat of extinction it is emerging and ringing true in the hearts of circles around the world.
The hope, the joy, the peace and fulfilment it brings is lightening and empowering. Around the world circles and council gatherings are coming back with momentum, facilitation, clarity and purpose. People’s voices are being heard and passion is leading to purpose.
The world is a village they say, now it is time to make us a brother and sisterhood. Empowering each other and restoring trust and co-living. Now is the time to explore the win win rather than the scarcity of win- lose, the power with rather than the over to power over.
Stamina to keep going for the success of all. A world created with win lose scarcity brain is bound to fail, it can never succeed its foundations are flawed because it is founded on life being disconnected and controlled. ‘Science works by separating and breaking down. Life works by a series of almost infinite connections with an origin that’s almost impossible to understand’ Thomas Smith.
Community of supporting Circles to empower individuals to find non violent ways to empower voice, vision and clarity within their lives, family, work and community. Our orientation towards individual and collective empowerment, care and vision has a common purpose to orientate towards togetherness.
If you are used to a particular style of Circle you may find wellbeing Circles slightly different. We have trained and are training in co-counselling, empathy circles, NVC circles, sister-stories Circles and convergent facilitation and trauma interplay facilitation therapy. All these styles form the foundation of our Circles. If you have never been to a circle then welcome to incredible journey.
Support and care to empower your daily choice in life
Our Circle Gatherings online or in person are an intuitively facilitated space in which we integrate vision & purpose through sharing, empathy, learning and coaching to the unravel, connect and lean into the mindful thought, heart felt intuition through all our learning.
We recognise that each of our lives is unique. Our ways of learning and understanding are unique and the cultures in which we wish to integrate our learning are unique. We wish to be part of a community in which diversity is celebrated.
This is a healing and empowering space where we learn to reflect, engage and sense into our feelings, needs and requests. What we want is important. We individually and collectively become the ripples of healing, care and strength for our families, communities and world.
In sharing we are keeping lines of communication, hope and learning open. We do not offer advice, we invite silence, we learn empathy and to listen to our intuition. These are skills that support our empowerment. Circles are facilitated to be a ‘we’ space in which we all are encouraged and supported.
We are sharing to understand what is alive in us, in our learning and growth. For each of us this may be different and in sharing this we may support others.
