“Social connection can transform our whole health and well-being.” (U.S. Surgeon General, 2023)
Among all the broad quality improvement initiatives in healthcare, none will achieve full potential without a strong foundation of collegial connections.
Social connection is as critical as air, food and water;
without it, all else struggles to exist.
Healing circle practice delivers authentic connection
Healing circles bring people together to share, listen, and reflect, guided by a consistent set of values and mechanics.
Healing circle practice is:
- anchored in a consistent set of values and mechanics
- a foundational practice of authentic human connection
- community-based and ongoing
- open to all to contribute and be supported anytime, anywhere
- impacting participants in immediate and tangible ways
