Circling for BIPOC Homies with Ahran Lee

Circling for BIPOC Homies is a powerful space for connection, healing, and empowerment that’s just for us. Circling is a relational mindfulness practice where a group of people sit in a circle and gather to have free flowing conversation. Guided by facilitator Ahran Lee, we foster connection, aliveness, and awareness in every circle through deep listening and present-oriented communication. Some of the benefits of a Circling practice includes:
Conflict repair skills
Accessing empathy
Cultivating self awareness
Increasing social-relational intelligence
Developing full body listening
Practicing vulnerability
Honing authentic expression
Increasing body awareness
Practicing mindfulness
Learning how to ask and receive
About the teacher:
Ahran is a 1.5 Korean American personal liberation coach, facilitator, and multidisciplinary artist based in Oakland, California. Cultivating interconnectedness and kinship is central to her professional and creative work. Ahran focuses on community building by empowering Global Majority individuals (BIPOC) to explore their identities beyond oppressive frameworks, reclaim their inherent power and authentic selves, and engage in personalized experiences such as one-on-one coaching, group facilitation on skillful communication, and creativity workshops. Ahran combines her experience as an artist, daughter of blue collar immigrants, and survivor, weaving mind-body modalities and anti-racist practices into her work. Ahran wants to be the first generation in her lineage who boldly breaks away from unhealthy patterns by creating and occupying space loudly and proudly. Ahran is an energy mover. Ahran is an ancestral pattern shifter. You can learn more about her work at https://ahranleecoaching.com/
