Stephen Torrence, CircleAnywhere Facilitator

Stephen cultivates embodied mindfulness in life and relationship. “I come from a tech-heavy homeschooled background in Austin, Texas, USA and fed the planet-killing Machine for a while. In 2015, I broke out into the global Ecovillage movement, and discovered that to change the world, I needed to change myself first. I’ve spent the last several years developing the Buddhist monastic path, while concurrently training for thousands of hours in Authentic Relating and Circling. I am certified by CircleAnywhere to facilitate. I’ve now led several events and retreats in the US and Canada. My leadership invites a meditative, inter-subjective inquiry into the emerging aliveness of our Awareness in connection, as we surf together towards more Truth and Love.
