Circumvolutory

/ˌsɜːkəmˈvɒljətɔːri/ adjective

Definition

Characterized by turning, rolling, or moving in circles; involving repeated or continuous circular motion.

Etymology

From circumvolution + -ory suffix (from Latin -orius), creating an adjective meaning 'relating to' or 'characterized by.' Used in scientific and technical descriptions of circular motion.

Kelly Says

Dervishes use circumvolutory spinning as meditation—the repetitive circular motion actually synchronizes brain waves and creates genuine altered states of consciousness, making spinning a legitimate neuroscience tool.
