What happens at Circle Holding book club.

  • For 4 weeks join the online Circle Holding Bookclub via zoom with exploration of the main concepts in “Circle Holding: A Practical Guide to Facilitating Talking Circles” and Q&A

  • This is an integrated programme of reading, listening, reflection and time to discuss the practical application of the circle practices shared in the book.

  • Lean into a wonderful circle gathering each week with the same people and experience the magic of circletime while crystalising how it happens!

  • Each week you are invited to:

    1. Read 2-3 chapters before Club

    2. Join in the circle by sharing and/or listening

    3. If you wish, complete the exercises in the chapters

    4. Perhaps be inspired by the Book Club to start your own circle

  • Timing is UK time so please check with your local time zone. Let us know if you’re in a different time zone and let’s see what we can arrange.

  • Join a lovely community of likeminded circle holders on a journey of discovery with “Circle Holding: A Practical Guide to Facilitating Talking Circles”.
