Beyond Small Talk – An Authentic Relating Circle

About this event

This is a space to meet: in a simple, human way.
We come together to slow down, feel our bodies, and notice what it’s like to be in contact with others when we don’t have to perform, impress, or explain ourselves.
There might be moments of lightness and laughter, moments of quiet, moments of curiosity.
All of it is welcome.
What often happens in these spaces is not something we “do,” but something that emerges: a sense of ease, trust, and being a little more at home in ourselves and with others.

What will happen
Malù, Holosomatic Bodywork Therapist and Authentic Relating facilitator, gently guides the gathering.
Through simple invitations — some involving movement, attention to the breath, or relating to another person — we explore what it means to stay connected to ourselves while being with others.
You’re never asked to share more than you want.
You can participate, observe, pause, or step back whenever you need.
The focus is not on talking a lot, but on noticing what’s present and relating from there.

So.. what is Authentic Relating?
Authentic Relating is not about saying the “right” thing or having deep conversations all the time.
It’s a practice of:

• paying attention to your inner experience
• being honest about what’s happening, when it feels right
• staying curious instead of assuming
• meeting others without hiding behind roles or stories

Over time, this way of relating can change how we show up in everyday life — in friendships, intimacy, work, and even in the relationship with ourselves.

What we explore in this space
In very practical ways, we practice:

• bringing awareness to sensations and emotions
• expressing ourselves with more clarity and less force
• listening — really listening — to ourselves and others
• allowing vulnerability without pushing past our limits
• being present, even when things feel a bit unfamiliar

There is no goal to reach.
Nothing to fix.
Just the experience of being human, together.

Who is this for
This space is for you if:

• you’re curious about more real connection
• you feel a bit tired of surface-level socializing
• you like spaces that are slow, grounded, and respectful
• you want to meet people without labels or expectations

You don’t need any experience with Authentic Relating.
You don’t need to be “good at sharing.”
You’re welcome as you are.
