A relaxed and interesting time to engage with others and go on a little journey of self and connection.
Facilitated, collaborative, un-pressured, explorations and reflections in pairs and small groups.
Expanding our natural relating skills & supporting conscious community.
Opportunities to be seen, felt, & accepted in ways that are natural and empowered yet often not regularly available in our culture.
Mainly experiential. Mostly people will be engaging in practices, but questions are welcome at any time.
----------------------
People attend for many reasons:
It feels satisfying to really engage with others more deeply and richly in collaborative and supportive ways.
To upgrade natural fluency in presence, intuition, boundaries, and relating abilities and confidence. (Yes all these can be learned, just like any skills.)
For deeper insights into the essence of who we truly are. Many folk tell us that A.R. assisted them to drop old patterns, conditioned habits & limitations, and even process trauma residues .

AUTHENTIC RELATING
A.R. is an internationally-established field of conscious relating skills and rich self-discovery work. Developed in the 1990s in the US, and soon reaching Europe (where we first encountered it many years ago), there are now numerous A.R. community movements across the world. Here's a demonstration video from Authentic Revolution in the USA (one of the groups we trained with):
No Perfectionist Expectations - Just Being Human Together:
A.R. works best as a curious exploration, not by trying hard to be really good at exercises, and definitely not by trying to flawlessly match some kind of 'international standards' or structure. This event is an organic, experiential, self-guided, learning environment. Being able to be basically empathic and present is far more important than quickly having high skills or confidence.
NCAE Facilitators:
NCAE are a group of friends with a long history of active involvement with Authentic Relating groups. We hold a collaborative space, and our approach is grounded and supportive, and very 'human'. Yes, we have a lot of experience, but are also just on the path like anyone else.
-----------------------
What Authentic Relating (and this event) ISN'T:
This isn't therapy: It's not about trying to 'fix' or classify anyone. A.R. can be very helpful in processing challenges or trauma-residue, but that happens organically. A.R. isn't suitable for people who aren't comfortable to see deeper edges of themselves or others.
There's no 'System' to 'be perfect at': People are supported to tap into their own resources. We don't tell anyone 'how to be'.
We honor every individual's incredibly different human journey, and hold space in circle (not 'front of house'), so that everyone is part of the process.
