Meet like-minded people in a cosy and causal sharing circle. The intention is to share thoughts on a holistic point-of-view and come away with insight and inspiration.
This months sharing circle will be around the following two holistic views, to which we can share personal insight, philosophies, and/or guidance upon.
"The Feeling Underneath"
Many people suffer with the tendency to apologize all the time, chronically, for everything. On the one hand, apologizing is a social convention that keeps interactions between people polite, and in that way it can be very helpful. On the other hand, if we find ourselves apologizing for everything, it might be time to look at why we feel compelled to say "I'm sorry" so often. Ultimately, saying you're sorry is saying that you are responsible for something that has gone wrong in the situation. There are times when sorry is the right thing to say. But there are other times when "excuse me" is more accurate."
"Walking through your fear"
The situations, activities, and individuals that frighten us remain static. Their relative intensity does not change. Fear, on the other hand, self-magnifies. It is when you are afraid and envisioning all that might go wrong that the energy underlying your fear grows. A tiny flicker of anxiety can easily develop into a terror that manifests itself physically and eventually paralyzes you into inaction. Though frequently, in walking through that fear, we discover that the strength of our fright was out of synch with reality. And we learn that doing what frightens us can lead to great blessings. Confronting your trepidation head-on will help you accept that few frightening scenarios will ever live up to the negative disasters that we sometimes play out in our minds.
Please note: this is not a counselling session. It is an opportunity to share opinions and ideas in a space that encourages an open mind and a kind heart.
Parking is available on the street. Non mandated gathering.
