This initiative seeks to support the development of a thriving Healing Circles community in Europe and to contribute to deep intentional healing, belonging, and resilience in Europe.
We believe in the value of integrative healing methods and the urgency for supporting whole-person, whole-system healing spaces that develop and expand our collective capacities and capabilities to affirm life in times of great change. We heal best in community.
Teaming up with the Healing Circles Global movement, practitioners, and change-makers across Europe, the Gergina Foundation is working to set the foundations of Healing Circles Europe, together with Commonweal and other partners and like-minded actors.
Healing Circles Europe pioneers a transformative approach to well-being, transcending conventional healthcare and individualised disease models. Our network fosters deep intentional healing through community-driven integrative spaces, blending ancient wisdom with modern practices.
By creating safe spaces for exploration, support, learning, and co-creation, we empower individuals to address the root causes of suffering. Together, we access deep intentional healing for ourselves, each other, and the world. One of the fields where the need for such healing spaces is felt most strongly today is cancer & oncology care.
Our actions include:
- Healing circles: a vibrant and networked European community of practice supporting online and live local healing circles in communities and healthcare settings.
- European integrative retreats: integrative cancer care retreats, living with loss, grief, and healing in community retreats.
- Learning Journeys: Learning Circles and digital tools & programs.
We are looking to expand collaborations with local actors and European-wide partner organisations and support the development of integrative health ecosystems across Europe.
Join us in redefining healing and forging a Europe where well-being is truly integrative, transformative, and collective.
A Healing Vision for Europe
Imagine a Europe where well-being is abundant. Where we no longer compete for our self-worth. Where everyone belongs, and where the economy works for society – employing regenerative models with adequate social protection, without compromising the environment.
This is a Europe where healing isn’t just about treating symptoms at physical and individual levels, but about fostering holistic well-being for individuals and communities. Where everyone can access spaces that support deep intentional healing and wide capabilities for flourishing.
That’s the vision behind Healing Circles Europe. We’re more than just an organization — we’re a movement dedicated to transcending the limitations of traditional health and social models by offering innovative, community-centered healing spaces and solutions.
At Healing Circles Europe, we believe in the power of connection, compassion, and collaboration. Our approach goes beyond state-of-the-art solutions, integrating ancient wisdom with modern practices to address the root causes of suffering and support the sources of health.
Through our network of healing circles, retreats, and events, we create safe and nurturing spaces where individuals can explore diverse healing modalities, share their stories, learn together, and support each other on their journeys to healing. We’re breaking down barriers, building bridges between cultures and disciplines, and empowering people to take control of their health and development.
Join us in reimagining what healing can be. Together, we can cultivate a Europe where everyone has access to the resources and support they need to flourish — physically, mentally, and spiritually. Together, we can make healing a collective journey and life-sustaining society a true possibility.
