LEAP Institute – Lever 5
Conscious Circles
Conscious Circles fosters self-awareness and emotional intelligence through intentional connections and nurturing circles, empowering individuals on a journey of personal growth.
Consciousness Circles responds to the South African reality by creating safe, intentional spaces where learners, teachers, and professionals can reflect, connect, and grow
About Conscious
Circles
We believe emotional intelligence, resilience, and self-awareness are as vital as academic skills. Through guided circles, participants develop the tools to manage emotions, build meaningful relationships, and navigate life’s complexities. At the heart of our work is the belief that personal growth begins with conscious connection — with self, others, and community
Lever Objectives
Reimagine Life Orientation
Equip teachers to reimagine Life Orientation as a subject that supports emotional development, self-reflection, and resilience in learners.
Personal Development
Provide young adults with a structured space to reflect on their experiences, develop emotional tools, and grow in confidence — preparing them to navigate stress, relationships, and challenges in the workplace.
Extend our Impact
Share our tools and methods beyond LEAP Schools to strengthen emotional intelligence in other schools, organisations, and communities.
Programs Offered

Life Orientation Circles
A powerful reimagining of the Life Orientation subject where teachers guide learners through reflective conversations in a circle format. This model centres learner voice, promotes peer learning, and helps students build emotional resilience and personal agency.
Process Meetings
A 10-month journey for youth (particularly Lever 6 interns) to explore identity, emotions, relationships, and purpose. These sessions help prepare young adults for the workforce by nurturing self-awareness, confidence, and emotional skills.
Empowerment Circles for Organisations
Adapted for professional teams, these circles promote healthy communication, emotional resilience, and values-based leadership. Each session is tailored to meet the needs of the organisation — building stronger, more connected teams.
