About this Course

For Everybody

A Heart-Centered Approach to Conflict, Community and Healing

Learn how to use this highly effective communication and decision-making process that has been passed down from our ancestors, and is still used today in indigenous cultures. Yet the Talking Circle works just as well in our contemporary lives, as it is the way we are designed to come to one voice. You’ll get instructions for incorporating the Talking Circle process into relationship, family, therapy, work, school, political, social, and cultural settings.

There can be the desire to listen, but there also needs to be the ability to listen. The Talking Circle process automatically creates a safe listening environment, where everybody’s voice is heard, and everybody’s opinion counts.
