Talking Circle

©beanofthefields

People have gathered in Circle for centuries—to celebrate, to tell stories, to make laws and rules…to connect and heal. Talking Circles provide a safe (and confidential) space to gather, connect, reflect and share. In sharing our stories with each other, we are reminded that we are never alone—and we are, in fact, of community. There are threads that weave through all of our lives and experiences.
