The grounding and experience of presence explored in sacred circle is included in the guidance and exploration process of our programs

In 2001 Renee began a sacred circle that consisted of practitioners of different spiritual backgrounds. Our groups purpose was to deepen our personal experiences of Doctor Marshall Rosenberg’s speaking peace model. Those of us in the group all had a long history of personal practice in our own traditions and recognized the sacred connection that was missing in the speaking peace programs, except in personal experiences with Marshall himself. Therefore we attempted to create, not a practice group, but a sacred circle. We called in our various deities for support and to hold the space to help us go deep into our personal vulnerabilities and speak our own truths, even when it came to each others ego’s within the group. It was knowing each other from inside ourselves almost somatically versus what and who we were.
