Authentic Presence

About this event

**About Authentic Presence**

Authentic presence is a path of radical owned honesty. It creates a safe and supportive environment where you can look at yourself with fresh eyes. At the same time it often is fun, enjoyable, beautiful, and meaningful.

Ultimately, this practice leads to a closer connection with yourself and more meaningful relationships with others.

Join these beginner sessions to learn basic techniques from authentic relating and circling. Activities include meditations, dialogues, and exercises on sharing and owning your experience. No prerequisites—just come as you are!

We look forward to meeting you!


**House of the beloved**

This evening is offered to you by Stijn Smeets, artist- monk at House of the beloved.
At House of the Beloved, we're reimagining what it means to live, learn, and love. As a contemporary, monastic community grounded in the concept of "being different together", we explore new approaches to relationships, parenting, counseling, teaching, and community-building.

We're dedicated to helping you become absolutely free. Our transformative practices support you in finding deep connection by expressing your own way of being human.

Join us at our urban mountain top in the center of Brussels or our activities in Amsetrdam/ Utrecht.
