* Insight Circle
3Practice Insight Circles are based on publicly available books, videos, speeches, articles, visual art, and other sources.
People who’ve interacted with the source personally may take two minutes to express their thoughts in the Circle, and then answer Clarifying Questions from others.
Anyone may ask Clarifying Questions, beginning with the words, “I’d be curious to know.”
As always, no one is required to speak.
** Frankly Religious
Some folks bring religious sensibilities to 3Practice Circles, and some Circles address explicitly religious themes.
Don’t read too much into that. By design, 3Practice Circles are neither religious nor non-religious.
That said, if you use religious jargon, you may find that others don’t know what you’re talking about. So, if your goal is clarity, start with your vocabulary.
In any event, whatever our beliefs, politics, and lived experience, we speak for ourselves in 3Practice Circles.
