Circling Weekend Reykjavik

In Circling, we bring meditative awareness and honesty to what’s happening in the moment in us and between us. We research what interconnectivity and autonomy are and explore our perception of reality from moment to moment. What unfolds can contain the full spectrum of human experience — from emotional revelations, a sense of connection and boundaries, and spiritual insights, to heightened sensory receptivity, non-ordinary states of awareness, and various expressions of aliveness.

The core practices we will introduce and explore are Circling and Surrendered Leadership, practiced in the lineage of the Transformational Connection organization. To read more about these approaches, visit the event landing page.

We will introduce a variety of exercises that can support grounding in the practice, getting to know its fundamentals and atmosphere. These exercises will often happen in pairs or small groups. We will learn by doing and create spaces of sense-making and debriefing, while also befriending states of not-knowing.

The good share of the weekend we will likely spend in the form of the practice called Surrendered Leadership, or Flow. This is when we come as a group and explore the emergence of the present moment from the place of surrender. It appears to be a deeply touching, potent, and transformative approach that invites us to embrace polarities and paradoxes, outgrow our own habituated ways of being, bring forth gifts of our hearts and souls, and confront our blind spots.

⦿ Mateusz is the main lead for the weekend. His Circling passion started in 2019, and since 2022 he has hosted the practice regularly and completed several trainings in Circling facilitation. He works as a Copenhagen-based somatic therapist and focuses on modalities rooted in touch, breath, presence, and inquiry. He carries a deep curiosity and wonder about the nature of reality, consciousness, and the potential that exists in human awareness, including interpersonal and transpersonal states. His training includes BioDynamic Breathwork, Myofascial Energetic Release bodywork, Compassionate Inquiry by Gabor Maté, Circling, and a background in Internal Family Systems. He is passionate about dancing, the integration of spirituality and contemporary psychology, non-ordinary states of consciousness, and community building.

⦿ The weekend will join a group of 3-5 experienced circling, or alike modalities, practitioners who will support our group process with their surrendered leadership. To the team are invited other certified practice leaders, or people who have spent a handful of time in the circling paradigm or other similar approaches.

This is an invitation for a continuation of the circling weekend. We will expand from BEING IN THE PRACTICE of collective presence, embodied listening, and relational explorations into including BEING IN THE WORLD, going out for hikes in nature, discovering volcanic lands, and being together as humans, following our desires, passions, and responsibilites. My longing is to create a bridge between the WORKSHOP HALL and the NATURE TEMPLE, as well as between INTENTIONAL PRACTICE TIME and INTEGRATING IT INTO LIFE.

⦿The Nature Immersion is NOT a retreat, but more a cocreated space, where I will be in the lead of hosting daily circling sessions of 2-3 h and supporting the emergence of the rest of the collectively shaped programme. Please visit the event page to read more about the vision for this time together.⦿

Much love,

M.
