Present Moment Circle is happening in person on Kauai and also 2 groups weekly on Zoom

Present Moment Circle is a lightly facilitated, emergent practice of exploring the present moment in connection with others. The practice often looks like a mindful conversation that stays primarily about the present moment… what feelings, thoughts, sensations, or energies am I experiencing? How does what other participants say, do, or experience impact my moment?

Present Moment Circle has roots in “Circling” (as emerged in the Bay Area in the mid 90’s) as well as various modalities of mindful communication. This is a confidential space where we take ownership for our experience, and refrain from attempting to fix or change others. Any participation is emergent and voluntary.

Facilitator: Ko Darlington carries 33 years of professional experience offering 1:1 therapies including somatic, energetic, dialog, craniosacral, visceral, and movement modalities, as well as facilitation of group practices and workshops. Present Moment Circle began in 2020 as a personal exploration with close community members. Ko currently facilitates 2 groups per week online which are also open to new participants.

Words from Participants

“Present Moment Circle is amazing- I attended an in person circle with Ko regularly for a year. I had no experience when I came in and I was surprised how nourishing and supportive this weekly experience was for me. It deepened my sense of community, offered opportunity to grow in my relational skills (with clear tools I still use today), and deepened my presence and connection with myself. Most importantly it helped me hear others more deeply and improve connection in my relationships. I am forever grateful for this practice and would highly recommend Ko’s wise yet gentle approach as a facilitator. ”

“Present moment circles facilitated by Ko have been transformational for me. The combination of the commitment to stay in the experience of the personal present moment combined with deep curiosity about another’s experience is vulnerable, enlightening and intimate. I am part of many other ‘modalities’ and I know of no other way of being that brings this gift”

“Present Moment Circling with Ko is a kind of energy medicine in my experience.The practice helps me drop into what is deeply true in my body right now, integrating physical and emotional awareness that might otherwise remain hidden within. Under Ko’s guidance I feel more conscious, alive and aware in a kind of inescapable honest consciousness with my inner being.
I learn many communication tips, tools and techniques for deepening authentic connection with others. Heck, I just used these skills speaking with an insurance company on the phone the other day and received incredible benefit and outcome!”
