Come as you are.
In this guided Circling experience, you’ll practice deep listening, honest conversation, and discover how quickly strangers can feel like real connection.
What is The Original Circling® Approach?
The Original Circling® Approach is a relational practice within the Authentic Relating movement that helps people experience deeper connection through guided conversation and presence.
It is the “how-to” behind the types of conversations where we found ourselves feeling so deeply understood. It is not therapy, nor counseling. It is the kind of deep listening we wish was more common to our everyday interactions and not a rarity.
What to Expect
The evening includes introductions, Authentic Relating exercises, and facilitated conversation circles.
After a short opening activity, we break into small groups of 3–4 people, each with a trained facilitator.
One person brings a topic that feels present in their life, and the group explores it together through guided conversation and curiosity.
Instead of giving advice or trying to fix anything, participants practice deep listening, presence, and understanding another person’s experience.
This will be a two-hour session designed to foster the experience of being and feeling truly seen, heard, and understood by others.
No prior experience with Circling or Authentic Relating is required. Many participants attend their first event alone.
Spots are limited to keep the group small. Early registration is recommended.
