Community Circle | Tomorrow 7pm | Link in bio

This picture was taken last October at our Wild Senses retreat in Turkey (thanks :)). Two weeks from now we would have been setting off on our second expedition with 30 beautiful souls

While I miss the intimacy that the retreat created, I'm equally amazed at how close we feel to each other in our weekly Zoom circles. It's a truly deep experience that has become like a mini-retreat in the week for regulars. Every newcomer also brings unique perspective to the experience which is cherished

We'd love to have you join tomorrow (Thursday) @ 7pm. It's free to join (charity donations encouraged). Just PM us or register on the link in our Bio

I'll be holding back on the theory tomorrow to give more time to the open circle. Looking forward to relating with you all ♥️ .mindful.path

Hi dear friends, Tolga here. I am delighted to be joining & livestream to talk about my mental health journey today in between 12.30-13.30 on the live stream you can find the link in the next image on the right🙏There will be many interesting talks and discussions through out the day so check that space out.

Zach and Jim will be Cycling the Height of Everest indoors and the aim is raising funds for Mental Health under Lockdown and beyond, supporting the Mental Health Fund.

Please Donate here: https://bit.ly/cyclingeverest.

This fund aims to support the work of Crisis Text Line , Shout UK , Kids Help Phone , and SpunOut .ie, as they grow to meet the increased demand of people in pain. They offer 24/7 tech platforms where people can anonymously reach out and get support when in need. (see TED talk by CrisisTextLine ). You can apply to be a Crisis Volunteer, however the most urgent & life-threatening situations will be escalated (using smart computers) to crisis supervisors who are working full-time for these organisations.

Love,
Tolgaof.now

In tonight's circle we'll be monitoring our desires to help, fix, advise, coach and alleviate uncomfortable emotional situations. As empathetic creatures we have a natural tendency to want to help others. However, one of the most compassionate acts we can do do is simply to acknowledge and sit with another person's difficult emotions

The urge to 'solve' this person's emotional troubles can often come from our discomfort with experiencing their emotions and our inability to sit with these emotions. Our desire to make the discomfort go away can cause disconnection and make the other person feel even more isolated

Tonight we'll explore what it means to truly listen in to our own emotions while being with others and 'be there' for someone and to give space to them without being crushed by their emotions

The circle starts at 7pm. We'd love to have you there. Register via the link in the bio or send us your email address via DM

Swimming into Connection 🌊

We have deeply missed our Swimming into Connection gatherings over the past few months and the magical mornings we spent together on the sand & in the sea 💙

With the restrictions now gradually beginning to lift over the next while, we are starting to look forward to easing back into our mornings together. Like everyone else holding events, there will be guidelines to adapt to in order to make the events safe so there will definitely be some changes happening 🌊 to flow in tune with what is best for everyone. And it will probably be some more time until we can gather again.

Updates will be on the way once a way to begin again becomes a little clearer 💦

Until then, the biggest of salty sea hugs 🤗

Move beyond smalltalk and foster meaningful relationships. Whether meeting new people or relating to family and old friends, the practices we will go to tonight can transform your relationships and bring you more into connection with yourself and others. With practice, the results can literally be life changing.

Tonight we'll briefly cover the 3 levels of communication - Informational, Personal and relational - and practice relational conversation in pairs. Then we'll open up the circle to whatever's alive in us at the moment so we can put the techniques into practice.

Come join us :). These weekly circles are open to everyone, beginners included. Sign up on the link in our bio or PM us to join for free. Donations to Childline welcome on our website.

What assumptions do you make about people before you even speak with them?

The assumptions we make about others are a barrier to connection. "I think I'll relate to someone like this / I won't relate to someone like that"...

The remedy to assumptions is curiosity

In tonight's circle we'll work on identifying these assumptions and express them before opening up the circle to the group

We are thrilled to announce that this Friday is offering a donation based “Understanding the Cyclical Feminine” workshop.

Registration link is in the bio❤️ “It is already within you; you just need to listen and cultivate it.” As women we are cyclical and in constant change, our hormones and bodies are literally different during each phase of our cycles. This makes our level of energy, focus, and gifts change in each phase. In this session, we will talk about how these changes look and how you can work with your cycle to increase your wellbeing, improve your relationships and optimize your life.

Topics to be covered;

Meditation to connect to your cycle.
Menstrual cycle awareness.

The science: how hormones move during your cycle.
The cycle ecosystem

Mapping your cycle.

Donation: This session is free to attend. Charitable donations are welcome. All contributions will be donated a selected NGO
