Do you desire to have more intimacy and depth in your relationships?
Would you like to learn more about yourself and what might help you grow, when it comes to connecting to others?
If the theme of connection resonates with you, please join Ksenia Belash and Enrique Fernandez, as we embark on a day of circling practice.
Circling, also referred to as interpersonal mindfulness, is a cutting-edge relational practice where we are invited to put our awareness and attention on what is happening in the here and now, within and between us, without an agenda or judgement.
As we slow down, and deepen our connection with ourselves, we start to explore what happens, internally and externally, when we come into connection with others.
Through gentle awareness exercises, you will be invited to attune to your embodied experience, including feelings, sensations and thoughts, and to explore and express what you notice within you in a warm relational space.
Circling is not a form of therapy, neither is it a spiritual practice - but it can be both, as many find it provides personal growth, healing, empowerment and transformational insights.
As you apply yourself to this practice, you are likely notice your connections with important people in your life deepening and becoming more intimate. Your capacity to express yourself authentically will grow, while you will be also cultivating trust, empathy, compassion, healthy boundaries and a sense of your inner authority.
The circling practice is underpinned by the following five principles, which we will explore in depth on the day:
1-Commitment to connection.
2-Owning your experience.
3-Trust in your embodied experience.
4-Staying with the level of sensation.
5-Being with the other in their world.
You don't need to have any experience with circling to join this workshop - just a desire to connect, an open mind and a willingness to be vulnerable.
The structure of the day may vary according to the needs of the particular group, but we are likely to do some guided embodiment and gentle movement meditations, pair and triads exercises, as well as larger circle processes.
All exercises are optional and you are strongly invited to look after yourself, respecting your own needs and boundaries. It is an experiential practice, and therefore any attempts to put it into words risk falling short.
