The Resiliency Circles (RC) offer a unique environment to experience a  safe, enjoyable and educational relational space. You will learn to identify your relational patterns, heal traumas which have occured in relationships (e.g. loss, seperation, mistreatment) and build new attachment skills to enjoy being yourself with others. Trained professionals hold a compassionate and sensitive attitude to include all the parts of everyone present – orienting  towards unconditional acceptance and appreciation. As the process unfolds, the RC’s open the door to a palpable sense of peace, intimacy and connection with one another.

The purpose of an RC is primarily for individuals to experience and integrate a sense of belonging through their nervous system in a safe social space. The group work involves a psychosocial process of including often alienated aspects of our being and our body through the safe container held by the therapists and the quality of interaction between group members.

Co-regulation between group members is the results of our RC interactions. This means we learn to practice relational skills to regulate our emotions, somatics and thoughts.

Practically, after a short introduction from the facilitators, group members are invited to share freely whatever is on their mind/heart and there begins the free association conversation and spontaneous sharing. Each person manifests themselves differently and the RC enables group members to embody a sense of belonging by appreciating the diversity of  life experiences, points of view. Finally, as the group builds  in  its quality of compassion and enjoyment, it  becomes a womb-like experience which support  deep nervous system regulation  for all members.

The Empowerment Forums (EF) are transformative spaces for ourselves and for our societies. Each session has a specific theme, and their aim is to engage an embodied, creative and encouraging dialogue on key societal issues. Examples include:

• Empowering genders: celebrating women, men, LGBTIQ & gender fluid communities
• Freedom from shame: building social resiliency and empowerment
• Wisely relating to our ecosystems: embodying our complex interdependence with nature
• Inclusive economics: towards a responsible and compassionate society
• Living a life of scarcity & abundance: embodying resilient postures & responses to challenges

Our Dream Team provide a vibrant community platform upon which to include all feelings, somatic dynamics, attitudes and values on the particular theme explored. The aim of the exchanges, which occur both in whole-group plenaries facilitated by faculty and smaller break-out groups by mentors, is to enable deep resonances to be felt accross the different groups in a safe, compassionate and playful way. The quality of dialogues, which includes the moment-to-moment experience of the body, the heart, the mind and interpersonal discussion, lean towards ease, building hope and stimulating courage to face the great issues of our time!
