The purpose of the circles is to invoke deep self-inspection through reflection and creating deep relations by sitting at the hearth encircled by the core beliefs of restorative circle keeping. The process for this circle session is centered on the reflection of self. We would ground ourselves in focusing on releasing the energies of affirmation or negation that we experienced throughout the Summer associated with five deep values of living that hindered or increased your capacity for human connecting. Once we release our affirmations or negations of self into the encircled hearth, we will focus on envisioning the possibility of what is renewal for self in the oncoming Fall and how do we go about building momentum for receiving support to accomplish and acknowledge the goal of renewal. Two Continuing Education Units (CEUs) will be available for participants with social work and professional counseling licenses (LSW, LCSW, LPC, LCPC). If you would like to request CEUs, you may do so in the evaluation survey sent after completing this training.
