This circle is offered through The Salisbury Centre’s communi ty programme. \nParticipation in a Symbolic Space Circle allows individual s to experience a way of exploring their intentions and connections with t he self and the world. \nA Symbolic Space Circle offers an opportunity to explore a relationship with a creative\, spiritual\, or everyday-life situ ation\, a goal\, or an intention\, using bodily awareness and movement in space. This may help activate forms of perception\, association\, and proc essing that are not easily available to conscious thinking alone. \nThe ci rcle begins with a grounding exercise. Then an individual or group intenti on is formulated. Sharing an individual intention with the circle is optio nal. \nEach session is adapted to the formulated intention(s). Guidance fo r a session consists of prompts or a series of simple\, non-suggestive que stions. Usually\, the goal is to externalise the intention and the situati on surrounding it\, and to explore a relationship with them through feelin g into bodily sensations\, becoming aware of any images and associations c oming to mind\, working with provided objects\, and/or moving through the space of the room. The process might be individual or involve a group dyna mic\, depending on the intention(s). \nOptional sharing is done throughout the session. \n  \nFacilitator\nEkaterina Shurkova\, PhD\, facilitates t his circle as a volunteer at The Salisbury Centre. She developed the Symbo lic Space approach\, drawing on her background in cognitive neuroscience a nd her interest in how people connect with the world: how we learn\, play\ , communicate\, solve problems\, and change our minds. \nIn this circle\, Ekaterina brings together creative problem solving\, relational ways of se eing\, and the role of symbols\, metaphors\, and spatial awareness in refl ective practice. \n  \nPractical Information\nThe circle is limited to 6 participants. Please make sure to book your place through Eventbrite. \nPl ease arrive on time. As the session begins with grounding\, the door will close a few minutes after the start time. Unfortunately\, late arrivals ca nnot be admitted once the session has begun. \n  \nDetails\nWhen: 9 July – 24 September\, fortnightly on Thursdays\, 15:00-17:00 \nHow to attend: please book your place via the Eventbrite link \nRoom: Studio \n  \nCont act Info\nWith any questions\, please email info@symbolicspace.site. \n  \nDonations\nDonate when booking your space via the Eventbrite link.
