About us
What is it like to be you right now?
The Sunflower Circles are a safe and confidential space to hang out, be heard, and get real.
We're a space which respects both spiritual development, and material justice. We're all about activists, creatives, and seekers who wish to be in community together, and learn from one another's personal experiences.
The Sunflower Circles are facilitated, not lead, meaning that our spaces are non-hierarchical and non-clinical. We meet whatever arises in the groups and follow the thread to which ever conversation we are meant to have at that moment.
OUR GROUND RULES
