Calm Circles: 16 July 2025 (Finding Joy)

Calm Circles is a peer-to-peer sharing circle to connect and learn.

Wanting to find joy is a very human behaviour, but many of us struggle to understand what joy should and can look like. In the process of seeking joy, we may, ironically, even feel defeated or stressed. Join us to take a moment and think about what joys we enjoy in our lives, and how we can protect them.

Goals:

• Experience personal connection with the Calm Collective community
• Share your thoughts and feelings in a safe, no-judgement zone
• Learn from each other's experiences
• Deepen your listening and empathy skills

* Disclaimer: Calm Circles are not a replacement for any existing or ongoing therapy or any professional mental health care.

Reviews from our past participants:

“Calm Circles is a great space for people who need the human touch to come and connect, especially during this time when we need to be kind to ourselves and each other.”

“I was also very encouraged and pleasantly surprised at what an authentic and respectful conversation about feelings we can have with strangers in an Asian context.”

“I liked that it was an open and affirming space! It allowed everyone to share some things in their personal life that they recognised as points of pain and learning. The sharing also made it such a precious space of growth.”

Late arrival policy:

We kindly request all participants to arrive on time for the session, as late arrivals may disrupt any ongoing discussions. If you will be more than 15 minutes late, we suggest attending the next scheduled Calm Circles to ensure that you get the most out of the session without causing any inconvenience
