Story Circle for Recovery Month!
September 28, 2022 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm
What is a Story Circle? A Story Circle is a small group of individuals sitting in a circle, sharing stories from their own experience.
About this virtual event
As each person in turn shares a story, a richer and more complex story emerges. By the end, people see both real differences and things their stories have in common. A Story Circle is a journey into its theme, with multiple dimensions, twists, and turns.
Story Circles are often understood as deriving from indigenous traditions. There are many variations. Story Circles can become practical interventions for building shared power and moving to action after hearing themes from the stories and building relationships between individuals.
Each Story Circle is unique and can take on the energy of the group. They can support perspective taking, empathy, cultural humility, listening, courage, vulnerability and healing.
Story Circles can be light or deep – depending upon the hopes, intentions, and outcomes of your group.
This Circle will focus on stories of Recovery, in honor of Recovery Month!
