Discussion Groups

Embracing Connection. Find Health and Longevity in Supportive Conversations

At its core, our self-love sanctuary cultivates well-being and longevity through authentic connections.

What are these Discussion Groups like?

We form these discussion groups to create space to speak truths out loud and be witnessed with love, compassion, and non-judgment.  In a world of increasing disconnection and loneliness, these groups form for an opportunity to experience intentional community, where we have the permission, conditions, and support to share what’s on our minds and in our hearts and connect deeply with other human beings.

We hold our groups in a circle, either in person or online, with approximately 8-10 participants and a facilitator.

To establish an understanding and agreement of what will take place in the space, the participants review and agree to our group Guidelines, which help them understand what is expected of them and what to expect in a group like this. By agreeing to the Guidelines, one can opt in and participate actively in creating an environment where we witness others. 

Following the review of the guidelines, the group is invited to share based on specific and structured prompts offered by the facilitator. Sharing is never required, and “pass” is always an option.  

For some, our group is simply a lovely respite from a hectic daily life, a place to not feel judged, relax and pause, share frustrations, and make new friends. For some, it is a place to release stories circling madly in the mind, allowing an unburdening that invites in ease and clarity. For some, it is a source of deep healing and an opening to the possibility that sharing what is present for you, without judgment, is a portal to knowing yourself more fully.

There is no right answer, there is no set objective. We distinguish between intention and outcome, believing deeply that in holding a space of love, we hold no agenda.

** Please note that this is not therapy, and NUSHU Groups are not guided by professional therapists. We ask that you consider carefully whether it is appropriate for you to enter into a vulnerable emotional space in which professional support is not provided.**
