The flow of a session consists of five stages which activates or deactivates different features:
- Greeting — open video chat conversation as people arrive
- Sharing — starting with the facilitator, each person around the circle shares the energy they're bringing
- Pre-meditation — the facilitator discusses any group intentions for the meditation, a duration, and then accordingly sets the timer and starts meditation.
- Meditation — a bell rings at the start and finish of the timer, with a quiet period for meditation with cameras and mics turned off
- Reflection — cameras and mics are turned back on, and the group can have a discussion until the facilitator closes the room
Use headphones if you can
Headphones greatly reduce echo and feedback for everyone in the circle. They make it easier to hear the person speaking during sharing.
Stay muted whenever you are not speaking
You join with your microphone off. Unmute only when it is your turn during sharing, or when you need to speak in greeting. Tap Pass only when it is your turn to speak during sharing. This keeps the circle clear and prevents echo and feedback.
Leaving
Leave returns you to your rooms dashboard. Closing or reloading this page also counts as leaving.
Greeting
Everyone can see and hear each other freely. When at least two people are present, the facilitator taps the green Start button in the center to begin a sharing round.
Sharing
- The first speaker’s circle is highlighted; only they are heard.
- Share the energy you are bringing to the working, be it your feelings, dreams, what happened to you this week, etc.
- When finished, the current speaker taps Pass in the center.
- The turn moves clockwise until everyone has spoken.
- When the round completes, meditation controls appear in the center.
Pre-meditation
The facilitator discusses any group intentions for the meditation and agrees on a duration. The stage pills move to pre-meditation while the group prepares; meditation controls appear in the center when the sharing round is complete.
Meditation
- The facilitator sets a duration (1–60 minutes) and taps Start in the center.
- A bell sounds; video and audio pause and a countdown runs.
- When time is up, the bell sounds again, then video and audio return.
Reflection
The group returns to open conversation. You can start another sharing round or sit in greeting until the facilitator ends the session.
