What’s a Healing Circle?

Deriving from practices of Native Americans, First Nations, and Indigenous peoples, the Circle Process allows for the formation of relationships, the honoring of voices, and the creation of unity. The process is, at its essence, a story sharing process, which brings together people as equals to have open exchanges about difficult issues or painful experiences in an atmosphere of respect and concern for everyone. It is called "Circle" because everyone sits in a circle. honor the presence and dignity and value the contribution of every participant; ● emphasize the connectedness among people; ● support emotional and spiritual expression; and ● give equal voice to all. Confidentiality is also key, to ensure openness and emotional safety. Furthermore, participation is voluntary; no participant is required to share unless they choose to” (Anderson, 2019, para. 1).

What’s a Zine?

Zines are short for magazine and is a noncommercial homemade publication devoted to specialized and often unconventional subject matter..We will be creating a visual and literary piece that can grow with your growth in the circle and outside of it.
