Community Ash Circle
Community Ash Circle
Community Ash Circle
The Ash Circle is based on a West Africal (Dagara) conflict resolution ritual modeled by Sobonfu Somé. In my experience everyone in atttendance, whether participating or witnessing, comes away with deep insight and connection.
Community Ash Circles may be scheduled on an as-needed basis.
