About this Event
Authentic Relating is a practice of creating more deeply connected and authentic relationships with everyone in your life. Authentic Relating is an embodied practice. We use our words as much as our silences to relate.
You ARE welcome. Just as you ARE. Our purpose is to raise emotional intelligence and self-awareness by practicing how to:
- welcome everything
- assume nothing
- reveal the implicit
- own our experience
- honor self and honor the other
HOW WE DO IT
We gather in a sacred circle and practice slowing down and connecting to the present moment, one moment at a time, one person at a time. By co-creating a supportive and brave space for one another, we allow for the hidden to be revealed, for the implicit to become explicit, for the unconscious to become conscious. We allow for the authenticity of what IS to arise in us to be revealed and witnessed in the WE space. Then we just watch the magic unfold.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Perfectly imperfect, most of us, in this community, are willing, curious and open to exploring the deeper recesses of Self. We show up to fine-tune our relational skills, so we can take them out into the world and be the change we want to see.
Willingness is the key. Willingness to be open, to be vulnerable enough to be seen, willingness to explore. The result is usually an incredibly powerful evening full of deep connection between seeming strangers, surprising revelations between old friends, healing personal insights and sometimes honestly just a lot of raucous fun and laughter depending on who shows up and how WE show up.
Confusion shows up sometimes as well, as does discomfort or disconnection and yet WE find the way to welcome it, integrate it and connect through it anyway.
Mostly, we leave richer than we arrived. When we return to the outside world, we may experience instances or states of heart and mind coherence, improved rapport with fellow humans, increased trust, improved integrity, increased capacity for intimacy, deep reflective listening, or just some good ol’ connection high.
Post connection blues are a thing, too. So, reach out if you need resources and we will connect you to methods, tools and professionals that can help. Self-care is paramount.
WHAT TO BRING
Do bring a desire to connect, an open mind and a curious heart. The seating is mostly floor seating with backjacks and cushions. If you need additional accommodations please lets us know.
