I am currently looking for 12 men to attend a weekly online meeting or circle for 12 weeks. The fee for attending these events will be £12, just £1 per week.
Circle is the place where men gather to be seen, heard and loved.
Circle is for every man. We are all mirrors of one another and so there is no man who does not belong. We are creating unity, harmony, connection and collaboration. When we acknowledge our judgements toward one another and see that those judgements are our own shadow, we begin to have more acceptance of ourselves and others.
Circle is a space for all voices to be heard. No one sits back just to observe and listen. Everyone is an active participant. Everyone’s voice matters.
Circle is like a wheel, not a pyramid. While there is a facilitator, that person is not put on a pedestal and treated as separate. There is no hierarchy in circle. Each man matters. We are each a spoke on the wheel, which means that we must all pull our weight. The wheel cannot turn without everyone understanding and believing that they are equally important in creating the structure of the wheel.
Circle is a place of abundance. We are giving and receiving in the circle. It is not about always showing up as your best self to give. Sometimes, a man is down and needing to receive support. This is where we learn that everything we need is in circle because we have everything we need inside of us.
Circle is sacred. When we step into circle, we honour the space. We turn off the distractions. We stop the chatter.
Circle is safe. We feel safe by feeling connected to one another. We develop trust through our agreements with one another. Circle is a place where men can share the things they are afraid to speak and learn how to shine light on shame so it no longer exists.
Circle is a mirror. There is no judgement in circle because the part of you that I am judging is a part of myself I am not accepting. In circle we learn acceptance.
Circle is empowering. When we feel disempowered in an area of our life, we can claim back our power in circle from the other men reflecting our brilliance. We leave the circle feeling recharged, filled up, energised and empowered to take action in our lives.
Circle is expansive. By being filled up with love and support, we leave the circle feeling expansive in the areas where we came in feeling contracted. This is the place to unwind, uncoil and let go.
Circle is life. There is no separation between circle and our life. The goal is to bridge the safe space that occurs for a man in the circle and her other relationships so there is no longer a gap.
