Join Us for an Evening of Connection, Community & Heart-Centered Gathering! 🌟
Next Friday, we gather again a sacred space for individuals and couples to come together, explore, and grow. Whether you’re single or partnered, all are welcome.

✨ Theme of the Evening: The Art of Being Seen ✨
This evening is about softening the walls around the heart and allowing yourself to be witnessed — fully, safely, and without needing to perform. Together, we’ll explore what it means to be authentically seen in love, friendship, and community.
Through reflection, embodied practice, and open-hearted conversation, we’ll practice giving and receiving the medicine of presence — seeing and being seen with compassion, truth, and love.

🕯️ The Flow of the Evening
• 6:30 PM – Arrival & Community Gathering
• 7:00 PM – Opening Circle: Set intentions and ground into the theme
• 7:15 PM – Group Exploration: Practices & sharing around The Art of Being Seen
• 8:15 PM – Closing Circle: Integration, reflection, and gratitude

🍲 Nourishment
Bring a dish or snack to share — community potluck style!
Sharing food is one of the simplest and most beautiful ways to connect.

💝 Cost
This is a free-will donation event.
Contributions are welcome but never required. Your presence is the true offering.

👶 Childcare
We’re still looking for a kind-hearted babysitter to support this and future circles.
At this time, childcare will not be provided — but if you or someone you know would love to hold space for little ones during our gatherings, please reach out! 🙏

📍 Location:
Unity Center of Des Moines
414 31st Street, Des Moines, IA

💫 Our Mission
To create a safe, supportive space where every soul feels seen, heard, and celebrated.
A judgment-free zone where we gather in harmony, reflect deeply, and connect authentically — whether in sacred circles or as a collective community.

🌹 A Place to Be Seen, Heard, and Fully Accepted — Free from Judgment, and Celebrated for Who You Are.
