Heart Presence & Soul Living Circle Guidelines & Shared Values
Healing and Evolving an Enlightened Loving Community
Heart Presence & Soul Living Circle is a monthly gathering that combines meditation, reflection, conversation, and shared exploration of living with greater awareness, presence, and understanding.
This Circle was created for those who feel drawn to explore life beyond the surface level of daily living and to deepen their relationship with themselves, others, and the deeper essence of life.
Each gathering provides an opportunity to pause, reflect, listen, learn, and connect within a supportive community of like minded people.
While the Circle includes opportunities for participation and shared inquiry, there is never any expectation to speak. We encourage each person to engage at a level that feels comfortable and appropriate for them.
Creating a Supportive Space Together
To help create a respectful and welcoming environment for everyone, we ask participants to:
- Honour confidentiality and respect the personal experiences shared by others.
- Listen with openness and curiosity rather than judgement or the need to fix, advise, or change another person’s experience.
- Allow space for different perspectives, beliefs, and life journeys.
- Participate in ways that feel authentic and comfortable for you.
- Follow facilitator guidance where appropriate.
- Help maintain a calm and settled environment by keeping phones switched off or on silent.
The Spirit of the Circle
This is not a place of teaching people what to believe. It is a space for reflection, exploration, and deeper understanding through meditation, presence, and shared experience.
People attend from many different backgrounds and stages of life. What unites us is a sincere interest in living with greater awareness, compassion, understanding, and connection.
Attending the Circle
Please arrive a few minutes early so we can begin together in a settled and relaxed way.
Wear comfortable clothing and bring a water bottle if desired.
Chairs and cushions are provided. If you are unable to attend, we appreciate as much notice as possible.
A Shared Commitment
The quality of this Circle is created by everyone who attends.
Together we create a grounded and respectful space where people can pause from the noise of daily life, reconnect with themselves, and explore what it means to live from a more conscious and heart centred way of being.
