Have you heard of Circling?
Described as Relational Meditation, Circling is a deep & powerful practice that brings the essence of meditation to interpersonal communication & contact.
I’m happy to share this practice with you and invite you to some current opportunities to participate here in Johannesburg with Amy Silverman, visiting from New York to support the launch of Circling Jozi.
In this presence practice, the attention of a small group is skillfully focused on the others in the group, sometimes individually and sometimes as a whole. The facilitated process revolves around connection, understanding and a deep authenticity between people. It involves bringing a greater awareness and appreciation into our connections with others and can be considered a relational meditation because of this. It is a paradigm-shifting practice that is supported by wide ranging research in how adults learn and develop.
What’s it like to experience Circling?
What are the benefits of Circling?
Circling is a fresh way to develop presence and richer connections with those around you. It can provide fundamental and often unseen insights that, once seen, create new and exciting opportunities. It provides a doorway into flow experiences and breathes life into sometimes vague spiritual concepts and ideas.
Through Circling individuals can start to develop trust in a deeper intelligence in themselves and others. Part of what makes it special is that, although it is based on complex ideas, it is simple and empowering to take part in. We believe it to be one of the richest tools for human development in the world today because it works on so many levels.
