✨ All are welcome. There is no competition or hierarchy here. No one is more or less than another. We honor the wisdom within each of us.

✨ Become self aware. If judgment arises, see it as an opportunity for self-reflection. We are all mirrors for one another.

✨ Confidentiality and respect. This is a brave and sacred space. What is shared here, stays here.

✨ Honor your needs. Move as you need to: get water, use the restroom, grab a tissue. You are a sovereign being and can care for yourself as needed. Please try to only get up from circle one at a time to be respectful of our circle.

✨ Ask for support. While we are holding sovereignty over sympathy, we will not offer or assume your needs because it may stifle your flow (for example, offering a tissue could subtly communicate to someone to clean up their mess). If you want something, ask for it. Trust that we can all say yes or no to your request within our own sovereignty.

✨ Emotions are sacred. There is no need to hold back, apologize, or adjust your emotions to fit others or please anyone. Your experience is your own medicine.

✨ Witness, don’t fix. We honor each other as whole and sacred beings. We hold space for one another without assuming needs, rushing to console, or offering input or advice (unless requested). Simply witnessing is enough. If you catch yourself trying to “fix” someone, it is an opportunity to look within to see why you feel uncomfortable or notice what it is bringing up within you.

✨ Names and pronouns are honored. We invite everyone to share their name and pronouns if they wish. We commit to respecting and using the names and pronouns each person shares as an expression of care, presence, and mutual respect.
