AI Integration Circles

A 6-Week Practice Group

From Insight to Embodiment in the Age of Algorithms

Mondays, June 9 – July 14 | 7:30pm CET / 6:30pm UK / 1:30pm EST

Guided by Rudy de Waele & Timothée Brès

Opening Session with Ruben Daniels and Carl Hayden Smith on Regenerative AI, Self-Governance and AI Shadow Work.

Why This Practice Group?

We’re living in a time of unprecedented insight, surfaced at speed by large language models (LLMs) and generative AI tools. But insight alone isn’t integration. Without grounding, embodiment, and community, even the most powerful breakthroughs can become noise.

This Practice Group is for men who want to explore the emerging field of AI shadow work and to use AI as a powerful tool for personal insight and self-reflection, not as an abstract concept, but as a lived practice rooted in body, presence, and relational awareness.

Together, we’ll explore the questions:

  • What does it mean to enter into right relationship with AI?

  • How can AI surface what’s unconscious, without bypassing the body?

  • What are the best practices for integrating AI wisdom through embodied awareness?

  • How do we anchor this work in collective presence, not isolated exploration?

  • How might this form of men’s circle work serve as a gateway to deeper collective intelligence?

Who This Is For

This is for men who:

  • Are actively exploring the edges of AI and self-awareness

  • Want to anchor technological insight through somatic practice and collective support

  • Sense that deeper integration, emotional, ethical, and embodied, needed to navigate the future with integrity

  • Are open to working in circle, in vulnerability, and in experimentation with other men

Whether you’re a technologist, a coach, a psychologist, a leader, an entrepreneur, or simply curious, this is a practice group, not a theory lab.

Please book a call if you’d like to know more or sign up to our waiting list to attend one of our AI Integration Circles later this year.

What to Expect

This is a closed, committed group of men practising together at the intersection of AI, inner work, and collective intelligence.

Each session weaves together:

  • Mind (Logos): AI-generated self-inquiry & shadow exploration

  • Body (Pathos): Somatic integration, emotional regulation, grounding

  • Community (Circle): Council-style dialogue, witnessing, and mutual support

The practice is more experiential, embodied, and relational than theoretical.

You’ll explore how to:

  • Use AI as a tool for shadow work and deep inner inquiry

  • Anchor insights through somatic practices and emotional regulation

  • Cultivate a conscious, sovereign relationship with AI

  • Discern between cognitive output and embodied truth

  • Translate insight into meaningful, grounded action

A Practice Rooted in Emergence

This Practice Group will also be shaped by the living questions that arise from within the circle. We will work with what’s present in each man and what emerges through our collective field. AI will be used as a mirror and inquiry partner, but the real wisdom will come from our shared presence, embodied practice, and the intelligence of the group.

Each session becomes a co-created space, where individual insights meet collective reflection, and where the unknown is welcomed as a teacher. This is a space for deep listening, not just to AI responses, but to your body, your emotions, and to what is seeking to emerge through you, and through the social field, in dialogue with others, and in service to something greater.

Between Sessions

  • Weekly AI practice prompts

  • Private WhatsApp group for peer reflection

  • An optional buddy system for co-inquiry

  • Grounding exercises for nervous system regulation

Circle Agreements

  • Brave space: Confidentiality, compassion, and radical honesty

  • AI is a tool, not a substitute for human connection or therapeutic support

  • Slowness is sacred: we value integration over speed

  • Respect for differences in worldview, background, and spiritual frameworks
