Free Communing Sessions on The Portal

Feb 16 / The Portal Collective team

“There will be no community without first communing.”

- Nora Bateson


Every brand on the internet seems to be selling us community.

But community is not a product. It cannot be bought, packaged, or consumed. It must be woven. 

That’s why several Creators from The Portal are offering Free Communing Sessions, open gatherings for anyone with a free Experiencer account.

That includes all Creators, too. This is the gift of The Portal community.

What Is Communing?

Communing is a collaborative project currently hosted by Creators of the Portal. It is simple by design and generous in spirit. We hope more hosts will join over time. There is no hierarchy here, no inner circle, and no, you’re not late to the party.

There is only a spiral, where each of us is free to move closer to the center or step back as it suits us. Communing is the act of being together in presence. It is the soil from which real community grows. Learn about our Communing Guidelines here.

What Happens in a Session?

That depends on the creator, but it might involve:
  • Moving
  • Thinking
  • Being
  • Reflecting
  • Listening
  • Or something entirely emergent


Details for each session are shared in advance so you know what to expect. And we hope you leave a little more rooted in the ecology of this world, more connected, more resourced, more aware of the living web we are part of.

Who Is It For?

Anyone with a free Experiencer account on The Portal. Whether you’ve been here since the beginning, joined yesterday, are enrolled in six paid offerings or none, you are warmly welcome.If you know someone who would relish a rich, restorative place to land freely, please invite them to create a free account and join us

Communing ~ Wisdom Well Write Date with Staci
Tuesday, 5 May, 2026
Time: 9:00 AM - 9:45 PM GMT
This is a space to slow down enough to hear the inner wisdom that’s always available.This is not a workshop, teaching session, or course. It is a guided hour of writing rooted in the Wisdom Well practice developed by Colleen-Joy Page. I simply hold the timing and gently guide the structure.We move through four simple movements — beginning with what’s here, letting a real question form, listening for what arises, and allowing it to meet your life in a grounded way.

Communing ~ Unfurling with Carly
Date: Thursday, 7 May, 2026
Time: 7:00 AM - 8:00 AM GMT
A creative embodiment session to welcome Spring. Come gather and be guided through pranayama (cultivating breath and energy awareness), poetry, somatic writing prompts and gentle movement.

Communing - Tending with Cat
Date: Tuesday, 12 Mai, 2026
Time: 7:15 PM - 8:00 PM GMT
A somatic return to earth when the work day is done - to enter your evening unhooked. Tending is an end of the day invitation to collectively and deliberately unhook from all the doing (for others) and gently tend to your own patch - with breath, touch, a good soundtrack and some honest words. We are working with portals in the body, places in which we can access the whole and bringing that the tenderness it warrants.

Communing ~ Non-doing with Harriet
Date: Wednesday, 13 Mai, 2026
Time: 11:00 AM - 12:00 AM GMT
The urgency of these times can make us feel that we need to be constantly doing. But to sustain the movement, to sustain our fire of world changing and dreaming, we also need the space in between - the non-doing.This is not something that most of us are accustomed, or even comfortable with as a practice or a way of being.During this session, I'll gradually invite us from a space of doing into a space of less doing, and non-doing. With spaces for reflection, connection and integration
