Transformative Connection || Circling Community Rotterdam

About this event

Join us for regular Transformative Connection circles in Rotterdam, hosted by Tom Marshall from Waves of Resilience (https://www.wavesofresilience.earth/) and Cameron Wylie from wynd (http://wynd.cc). Our initiative is community-driven, aiming to create consistent spaces for practice and connection. As a community of practice, we leverage our experience as facilitators and our passion for circling to establish a supportive framework. We also encourage community members to share their guidance through short guided meditations and circling/authentic relating exercises.

What is Circling (also called Transformative Connection and Surrendered Leadership)?
Circling is often described as a "dynamic multiplayer meditation." It involves tuning into our internal experiences—thoughts, feelings, bodily sensations, and impulses—while also connecting with others and the group as a whole. The goal is to express ourselves authentically, fostering connection and truthfulness.
