Engagements
Members are invited to join our online ‘Engagements’ intended to connect, inspire, and keep us actively and consciously engaged in our lives.
Regular check-ins are a powerful tool to help keep us engaged! When you know you’ll be sharing, it helps you stay more mindful and engaged along the way. It also helps you identify and articulate your experiences and observations which deepens your awareness and growth. And it feels good to share! Lastly, when we hear others authentically share their journeys, it expands our minds, furthers our own growth, and opens our hearts.
Engagements are held the last Thursday of each month, with breaks over the summer and holiday season
The next Engagement is: Thursday November 27, 2025, 12 Noon - 1pm PST
Agenda
Start
Opening guided meditation.
At 10 minutes
Welcome & "Concepts to Contemplate" - a brief presentation and exploration of a personal growth-related topic, followed by a review of one of the website tools.
At 25 Minutes
Prep/overview for breakout groups. Or you can optionally exit at this point - the next sharing segment is entirely optional.
At 30 Minutes
Breakout groups of 3-4 people. Each person will have about 5 minutes to share whatever resonates for them. Suggestions on the "Preparation Sheet" include:
-
As you aim to be more present and consciously engaged in your life, please note and optionally share any experiences, challenges, observations, and insights gained since your last Engagement.
-
What thought patterns have you observed?
-
How present have you been?
-
What, if any, life tools or practices have you been using and how have they worked for you?
-
Optionally share notes about any intention made last month.
-
Optionally share an intention for the coming month.
After each share, we all thank the person, open to any brief questions or comments, and then continue to the next share.
When all are complete with sharing, then with any remaining time, open discussion and/or discuss today's "Concepts for Contemplation' topic.
At 50 minutes
Optional sharing with the entire group & wrap-up.
At 60 minutes
End :-)
