It really depends on the event type. Circles are usually more for a broad collective.  Circles bring together individuals from various walks of life, transcending age, gender, and status, identification. With ceremonies, however, I often find that participants have a certain level of resilience and focus, but at the end of the day, honestly, it depends on the individual.

When it comes to medicine, "dosages" must be compatible with the particular recipient, and to figure out what space is more compatible for you there can be a bit of a trial and error process; which is what the life journey looks like! At any rate, I try to consistently capture in the event description the targeted collective. If you still feel unclear if this is right for you, please reach out and I'll try to answer your query when able to.

A healing circle typically follows a structured yet flexible format to create a safe and nurturing environment for participants. Here's a general outline of the format:

1. Opening Ritual:

   • The facilitator welcomes participants and sets the intention for the circle.

   • A brief grounding exercise, such as deep breathing or a short meditation, helps participants center themselves.

2. Introduction:

   • Participants introduce themselves and share their intentions or reasons for joining the circle.

   • The facilitator explains the guidelines for the circle, emphasizing confidentiality, respect, and active listening.

3. Main Activity:

   • The core healing activity takes place, which can vary depending on the focus of the circle. Common activities include:

     • Guided Meditation: A meditation session led by the facilitator to promote relaxation and inner healing.

     • Energy Healing: Techniques such as Reiki or other forms of energy work to balance and harmonize the body's energy.

     • Drumming and Chanting: Rhythmic drumming and chanting to enter a meditative state and connect with spiritual energies.

     • Sharing Circle: Participants take turns sharing their experiences, insights, and challenges in a supportive and non-judgmental environment.

4. Reflection and Integration:

   • Participants reflect on their experiences during the main activity and discuss any insights or emotions that arose.

   • The facilitator may offer guidance on how to integrate the healing practices into daily life.

5. Closing Ritual:

   • The circle concludes with a closing ritual, such as a gratitude practice, a group prayer, or a final meditation.

   • Participants express their gratitude and say their goodbyes.

6. Optional Social Time:

   • After the formal circle, participants may have the opportunity to socialize and connect with each other informally.

The format of a healing circle can be adapted to suit the needs and preferences of the participants, creating a supportive space for healing, connection, and personal growth.

The preference is outdoor, but due to external factors (pun intended) we may be forced to hold the space indoors. The experience will be profound nonetheless. The physical space is important but not nearly as important as your ability to be present. The key to unlocking the magic that you have access to during this precious time is found in your will and attention.
