Circle Practice to Build Strength and Trust

Building a circle can bring energy, strength, healing and focus to a group, either just starting out or long standing looking for a positive change. It creates a bond and a trust not found everywhere in the world today. Circle Practice promotes understanding and creates a united approach to any goal. By gathering in this particular shape you create an unending line filled with purpose. It places nobody above or below anyone which makes everyone a leader. This means that all voices are important and respected, and everyone can see and hear one another. Social agreements and practices help to keep your circle’s intention pure and strong. Participants will leave with a broader view and basic understanding of Circle Practice and how to form one.
