Community Heart Space:
The Art of Circle
A living experiment in community building in sacred space.
Sunday, September 27th
3 to 6 PM
Sacred Supper to follow at 6:30 PM
Join us for a Provocative experiential journey in human connection and community alchemy. Community Heart Space is an ongoing living experiment in art of gathering.
The Intentions of Community Heart Space:
- Practice good listening – listening to learn – listening to understand and foster curiosity.
- Cultivate together a respectful, practical and compassionate space for every voice to be heard and welcomed.
- Foster high quality connection, with self, spirit and each another.
An active Inquiry on deepening in community ~
- How can we learn to be more functional and productive in community?
- How do we hold and manage our emotions, feelings and shadow parts such that each person and the circle itself is learning, growing and healing?
- What makes a space sacred ?
- What constitutes safe space?
- What attributes and qualities are required for a space to be both safe and sacred?
- Have you imagined and longed for a type of community that fosters greater spiritual depth and deeper human connection ?
- Have you had issues feeling safe and connected in groups?
- Is your life missing elements of sacredness and spiritual grounding?
Together, in sacred space, we’ll explore the basic values of transparency and authenticity, unconditional acceptance, universal love and respect.
We will practice how to understand and manage our emotional energy, our triggers, our judgments and unconscious strategies.
We will develop reliable pathways for healthy group experiences that are both safe and sacred for everyone.
We will build and strengthen empathy and compassion, good listening, and sacred witnessing.
Circle Work
Elizabeth guides experiential journeys of conscious and sacred engagement with self, spirit and each other in a way that is inspiring and deeply nourishing. Using Evolutionary tools and a spirited blend of Temple practices, conscious breath and awareness practice, sound, movement, sacred presence and sweetly guided magical inquiry.
Temple Practices for the art of embodied presence:
- Simple Presence – Being with, looking within, slowing down.
- The Art of Release. Get in and get out. Allow it, follow it, then come back home to simple presence.
- Empathy and Personal Grounding.
- Body Tales – therapeutic expressive Arts’ practice.
- Sacred Space and creating container.
Simple Presence is the practice of being still, silent and focused inward. Elizabeth begins all practices, prayers and ceremonies to guide us to simple, sacred presence. As we settle ourselves, the unified field then settles and attunes us all in what I term Evolutionary Presence.
Through the development of intimate communion with self, spirit, and each other- we create a vibrant, living space in which our humanity and intimate human needs can blossom, be healed and be held.
Empathy & Grounding are active embodied practices required for both individual and group work. Through guided and active practices- empathy and compassion are cultivated as a personal resource and tool for empowerment and personal development.
Embodied Presence employs breath, presence and awareness practices that involve moving the body, opening the voice and being energetically activated in both moving energy out, pulling it in, clearing, charging and releasing. This is how we “get in our bodies” together and how we practice directing our awareness internally, while connecting more deeply with inner landscapes of self.
Sacred Space and ‘setting container’ are crucial foundations for group work of any kind. It includes taking personal responsibility for ourselves as well as for our collective experience.
Elizabeth is a grounded and gracious facilitator and community organizer with over 25 years in teaching and group facilitation, performance work and depth healing work. She will guide us through practical and direct experiences in human connection that are deeply intimate and nourishing.

Grief & Loss Support Circle
Sacred Circle space for counseling and emotional support through grief & loss.
Do you feel the need to connect with other humans in a deeply intimate, honest way. Where your emotional experience is held and cared for in a safe and sacred space. Where deeply held beliefs, patterns, and hurts can be investigated with care and curiosity.
We absolutely cannot do it alone, yet most of us tend to isolate when facing (or not facing) overwhelming life experiences and emotional pain.This is an opportunity to learn and practice some essential tools that support us through intense life experience as well as building an emotionally intelligent community of compassion, understanding and support.
