This is great.

Coleman, your photograph is stunning and Tycho and Ariel, it is so nice to see your names again.Way to go Mark! How about a little Authentic Leadership soiree in NY; Boulder is kind of far for us easterners. I recently attended a workshop with Arawana; it was exceptional. There will be another one in April and I highly recommend it. I will be attending the Presence Workshop in Boston, thanks to a lovely scholarship. I have become a consultant member of Sol and joined their coaching community. I will be meeting the other coaches in December. I will report back about the workshop and Sol coaches. I hope you are well and I send you much love. Do you find this valuable?

Nicole-Thanks for joining the conversation. I too have been blessed by Arawana's teachings, and am interested to hear more about your experience. As a performer and movement therapist, I am trying to understand the ways in which my skills and expertise can inform Leaders within organizational contexts. I have my own ideas about this questions, but would be very interested to hear to your thoughts. Why is it important to involve to body? What do you gain by doing so? How can coaches and consultants safely introduce body-based interventions into their work? How did your time with Arawana...change how you approach your work? I would love to hear any thoughts you might have on this. be well, Sam Elmore 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

2. the body mind
Dec 3 2007, 10:19 PM EST
Dear Sam,I am in Boston at the Presencing Collective Leadership for Profound Innovation and Change. It is an extraordinary collection of people from all over the world. I will be back with Arawana tomorrow; I am thrilled; I get so much out of her work. Why is it important to involve the body. I feel there is the mind, the body mind and the heart mind. Wouldn't one be far more informed if one was employing all of their minds rather than just one. Tonight, in front of 60 people, I had to introduce myself and give a brief description of what I do. My heart pounded as I waited for my turn. When I stood up and crossed the room, in my mind, I listened to Arawana: "feel your feet on the earth, be in your feet, take in what is happening behind and on the sides-stop-turn-stand. It was wonderful, I was in my body, connected to my body and the experience; my fear was left on my chair. Fear is such a strong force in all of our lives. In matters of communication and change it looms large. If one is given a different vehicle, other than the mind to cope with fear, if offers a space for deeper exploration and innovation. I think we can offer body-based interventions in terms of work related situations where the client can experience the strength of body awareness in their effectiveness as a leader. ie. the more aware you are of your presence in a space, the less self-conscious you will be and the stronger your presence will be felt. It is very late; I will report more as the conference emerges. Warmest greetings, Nicole Do you find this valuable? |
