By learning from each other&rsquo;s experiences, we can accelerate our progress and continue to evolve.<\/p>\n<p>We begin our session by interviewing TM practitioners who have experiences in the direction of Higher States of Consciousness so that their words might trigger a resonance with our own experiences, which, at times, can seem too abstract to understand fully.<\/p>\n<p>After our chat with our guest, we will enjoy conversations with our Zoom participants about their experiences in a \u201ccircle format,\u201d going from one person to another for a brief insight into their current experiences.<\/p>\n<p>Through this shared experience, we can gain inspiration, insight, and motivation to continue on our journey toward higher states of consciousness.<\/p>\n<p>What one of our zoom participants has said about the Experience Circle:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWhat I like about the Experience Circle sessions is the simple, direct descriptions of Higher States from everyday people that I respect; and not theoretical descriptions that sometimes seem so far out of reach.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Click on the button below to join the session on Sunday, October 26th, at 2pm Eastern\/ 11 am Pacific for the next instalment of our monthly series.<\/p>\n<p>Begins with a 20-minute group<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat fusion-button-default-size button-default fusion-button-default button-1 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type\" href=\"https:\/\/us02web.zoom.us\/j\/86745062695\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text\">Join Session<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><i>Password required to join this session. <\/i><em>Access these sessions with the Zoom password provided to you by email from tmevents@tm.org.<\/em><\/p>\n<div>Dear friends of the Experience Circle,<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>We are excited to invite you to a new experiment in deepening our collective exploration of Higher States of Consciousness.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>For three weeks in October, we will form a small group of 12 participants who will meet once a week via Zoom for 60\u201390 minutes. This format is designed to encourage open dialogue and meaningful connection.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><strong>Format<\/strong><\/div>\n<div>Each session will feature 4 participants sharing their experiences, guided by questions from course leaders Mark and Anne-Mareike. The format will be conversational and designed to support a natural, free-flowing exchange.<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Each of the 4 participants will have approximately 15 minutes to share.<\/li>\n<li>The final 30 minutes of each session will be devoted to group discussion and reflection on the points raised.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>Over the 3-week cycle, everyone in the group will have a turn to share.<\/div>\n<div>This small-group format is meant to foster:<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>A sense of\u00a0<strong>peer connection<\/strong>\u2014everyone in the session is sharing equally<\/li>\n<li>A\u00a0<strong>safe, supportive space<\/strong>\u00a0to explore profound and personal experiences<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>Our past experience suggests that these small groups naturally
