Start a Circle

The monthly Discussion Guide for Spiritual Living Circles is produced every month for use by Circle hosts and participants. The guide is free and is accessible through the SLC Host Community. Instructions to access the SLC Host Community will be provided to registered hosts.

All new Circle participants receive a free 6-month digital subscription to the Guide for Spiritual Living: Science of Mind magazine. After that, a subscription to the magazine is a very reasonable price.

Once you are registered, you will receive a welcome email that will include the details and the promotional code to access your free subscription.

Free subscriptions are only available to new subscribers. 

Choose a location that is convenient for all participants and allows for open communication. If there is a Center for Spiritual Living near you check with them for room availability. 

It is your choice whether to meet in person and/or virtually through a meeting application like Zoom.

The frequency and duration of the meetings are up to you. Discussion Guides highlight four feature articles from the magazine each month. They are provided free of charge in the SLC Host Community. You may choose to discuss any number of these, in any order. All hosts may have access to the SLC Host Community.

The facilitator or “host” position could be filled by one person or rotated among members. You do not need specific credentials to host a Spiritual Living Circle.

It is your choice as the host whether you meet only to discuss the articles or whether you have social interaction and/or snacks. You can also discuss with your participants whether they want to include time for social interaction and/or snacks.

If you decide to be open, your group and the host’s email address will appear on the Centers For Spiritual Living website world map and people can join by searching in their area. If your Circle is closed, the participants join by invitation. For instance, a community might decide to have their own Circle and invite only members of their community.

Gather the following information for your host and participants:

• First and Last Names
• Email Addresses
• Mailing Addresses (Optional)
• Meeting Location Address

When you register as a host, you will receive an invitation to the Spiritual Living Circles Host Community Forum. As part of the forum, you will have access to marketing materials that you can use to announce your Circle on social media and via email.

• Participate in conversation with other Spiritual Living Circles hosts from around the globe, ask questions and hear helpful tips.
• Be alerted to new information, special deals and be the first to hear about new products and innovations.
• Receive invitations to Spiritual Living Circles Host Trainings and virtual social events.

For more information, check out the Circle Hosts page.

• You must fill out a census three times a year. It will be emailed to the primary contact for your Circle.
• You must keep your contact information up to date.
• You must register your participants and keep the information up to date (you will periodically receive a printout of your participants so that you can add or delete as needed). 
• You must become part of the SLC Hosts Community—It benefits you. You will find the discussion Guides there, but you will also find resources galore.
