Circle of Trust: Our Sacred Space Guidelines

Welcome to Tiroana, Our Community of Growth and Support

As we embark on this enriching journey together, fostering both collective and personal growth, it’s essential to create a foundation of trust and kindness in every class we share. Your presence here signifies your agreement to cherish and uphold the values that make our gatherings a sanctuary for all:

Confidentiality: Our shared stories and moments are sacred treasures of this space. Let’s promise to keep these confidences within the class, honouring each other's trust and privacy.

Listening with Respect: Every voice in this room holds wisdom and truth. Let’s listen wholeheartedly, offering our undivided attention and respect, ensuring everyone feels seen and valued.

Open Hearts and Minds: Embrace each sharing with love and openness, free from judgment. Let’s nurture a space where advice is offered only when asked for, fostering an environment of acceptance.

Equality and Embrace: In our circle, every soul is equal, and every story is valuable. We celebrate our diverse tapestry of backgrounds with open arms, striving for inclusivity and understanding.

Speaking Your Truth: We encourage authentic, heartfelt sharing. Let your truth shine, but always with mindfulness of others' feelings and journeys.

Mindful Sharing: As we share our stories and insights, let’s be aware of the time, allowing the circle to flow gracefully and allowing everyone to be heard.

Believe in Goodness: Let’s look for and believe in the positive intentions behind each word and action, knowing we’re here to uplift, not harm.

Owning Our Feelings: It’s beautiful to express our emotions; let’s do so in a way that acknowledges them as our own, respecting the shared space of our class.

Sharing Is a Choice: Your presence is a gift. Sharing is encouraged but never obligatory. Being here, listening, and holding space is equally powerful.

Navigating Differences: Should misunderstandings arise, let’s approach them with a heart ready to mend and understand, relying on the class facilitator for guidance.

Fostering Support: Let’s be pillars of support and encouragement for one another, empowering each member towards personal growth and healing.

Honouring Boundaries: Physical and emotional boundaries are sacred. Let’s promise to respect and seek consent, ensuring everyone feels safe and respected.

Punctuality: Arriving on time shows respect for the class and minimises disruptions, honouring our shared commitment to growth.

Tech-Free Time: Let’s fully immerse in our shared moments, setting aside digital distractions to be truly present with one another.

By embracing these principles, we create a class that is not only a source of personal empowerment but also a collective wellspring of support and wisdom. Thank you for joining this sacred journey at Tiroana, where together, we foster a space of healing, learning, and connection. Welcome to our circle of warmth and growth.
