Rekindle the “Village” Spirit
In just a couple hours of cultivating our social roots together, we will begin to taste the sweetness of “village” closeness and support that most of us want but don’t know how to grow. We will explore games and exercises to bring us into deeper connection and compassion with ourselves and each other. If you take these nourishing social practices into your daily life, relationships and community, you can encourage your own “village” roots to come alive. And then… see what sprouts! 2.5 hours, $25-$45 sliding scale
Essential Elements for Cultivating Community Closeness and Support
Learn practices and skills for cultivating supportive relationships as we rekindle the social roots of “village” together in this weekend course.
This course will be an experiential embodiment of the “Core Elements of Thriving Communities.” Tracie will be leading and teaching you practices to help you connect more deeply and compassionately with yourself and each other. You will practice listening with all your senses, being a non-judgmental witness, and body-centered awareness techniques – practices you can integrate into your relationships and daily life.
On Saturday afternoon, you will continue to cultivate the closeness and support of “village” in the group with fun games and exercises. Then, on Sunday, you will have a real, live demonstration of Tracie’s Co-creative Solutions Process, a process that supports collaboration while also giving you safe ways to work through the issues and conflicts that naturally arise in human relationships. You will spend the last afternoon supporting each other in ways of integrating the useful elements of your weekend into your own lives, families and communities.
