Circles

An invitation to gather differently.

Long before healing became something that happened behind closed doors, people gathered together—to grieve, celebrate, tell stories, mark transitions, seek wisdom, create, and tend to one another. Across cultures and traditions, gathering in a circle has offered a simple and powerful form: each person able to see and be seen, to speak and to listen, to witness and be witnessed.

There is something different that becomes possible when we gather this way. We discover that experiences we carry privately are often shared. We practice listening without fixing, speaking with greater honesty, and allowing ourselves to be known by others. Circle can become a place to slow down, notice what is happening within us and between us, and remember that healing and growth do not always have to happen alone.

The Practice of Circle

Circles at Wild Heart Meadow are small, intentional gatherings shaped by the people who come together and the questions we are exploring. Depending on the offering, our time may weave together shared inquiry, mindfulness, time in nature, creative expression, ritual, movement, embodied practices, and relational process.

Some circles are offered as experiential group counseling, creating a therapeutic space to explore ourselves in relationship with others. Other offerings may take the form of seasonal gatherings, workshops, or rituals. Each offering will clearly describe the nature of the gathering and what participants can expect.

At the heart of each is an opportunity to experience something increasingly rare: being present with others without needing to perform, fix, advise, or have it all figured out.

Current & Seasonal Offerings

Offerings change throughout the year, responding to the seasons and to the questions that feel most alive. Some circles meet for a series of weeks, while others may be one-time gatherings or seasonal rituals.

Women’s Seasonal Circle

Tending the Inner Landscape

An intimate circle exploring seasonality, caretaking, rest, and the inner life. Through nature-based practice, mindfulness, creative expression, ritual, and shared inquiry, we’ll explore what it means to turn inward and tend what is asking for our attention.

Details coming soon.

Intimacy Circle

Turning Toward the Space Between Us

An experiential group counseling offering exploring intimacy, vulnerability, and what emerges between us in relationship. Together, we’ll become curious about the ways we long to be known, the ways we protect ourselves from being seen, and what happens when we practice meeting one another with greater presence and honesty.

Details coming soon.

Grief Dedication

A Gathering for Grief & Remembrance

A gathering to make space for what has been lost and what continues to be carried. Through ritual, reflection, nature, creative expression, and shared witnessing, we’ll create space for grief in its many forms—without asking it to resolve, make sense, or move on before it is ready.

Details coming soon.
