Nikki and Chris invite you to participate in our Sankalpa Circle to take time out to reflect on 2023 and create intentions for 2024.

This is the third year that we’re offering an online Sankalpa Circle program. The program was developed to share tools and experiences to enrich and navigate transitioning into a new year. We both enjoy being part of a collaborative supportive community and we’d love you to join us!

Our intention for the ‘Sankalpa Circle: Transitioning to the New Year’, is to come together for heartfelt reflection to find a ‘word’ that encapsulates and provides guidance for the year ahead. Our program draws from a range of inspirations that have supported our transitions into a new year, in particular the works of Susannah Conway (Unravel Your Year, Find Your Word) and Gina Macauley (YogaHara Sankalpa workshops and retreats).

Chris’ word for 2023 is expand and Nikki’s word is luminous. We’re excited to discover our words for 2024!

You’re welcome to join for all or part of the program, our aim is to keep it open and flexible. Participants will receive a document that outlines a suggested process; however, everything is an invitation, and you’re welcome to incorporate processes and tools you find useful and skip the rest. You know best which parts of the program support you. Eg, you might join for journaling, be at rest during the mindful movement and skip discussions, or participate in the entirety of the program. You’re welcome to share as much or as little as you choose in the discussions.

Online via Zoom – a meeting link and Resources documents will be shared by email and on the Humantix Virtual Hub after registration.

We limit registrations to a maximum of 14 participants to ensure support and space for the group and each individual.

Considerations for your participation:

A quiet, private space where you won’t be disturbed, with room for you to move freely.
A journal and pen, options for other mediums (collage, paints/pencils/etc) to support external expression of your experiences.
Access to the internet via a device that you are able to use in your space

The registration process has an option to let us know if you are unfamiliar with Zoom and would like a 10 minute technical check in prior to the start of the program.

You will also be given the opportunity to book a call with Chris or Nikki prior to the group starting to discuss any concerns or considerations to support your participation in the group.

Disclaimer: Registration is confirmation of your capacity and acceptance of responsibility for making wise and kind choices, practicing ahimsa (self-kindness/non-harm) and seeking additional support if required.
