Three Intentions in Flow Group

I love the way that Becoming & Belonging practices are teaching me and teaching the groups that gather.
– Some of it is self care, some permission to acknowledge the necessity of deliberate attention to the self.
– Some of is it suspended time (which perhaps is real time), a slowing down to give due attention to the nuance of who we are as humans moving about lives.
– Some of it is remembering this feeling of flow, like a creek, “Life lifing us.”

A recent participant, when asked, why are you participating, replied,
– “I’m need to learn to let go.”
– “I need to revisit who I am.”
– “I need to find home within myself.”

These statements represent so much of what comes alive in B & B. I’m glad for it in others. I’m glad for it in me.

Today’s session is Flow Group. 90 minutes online. Typically 4-5 of us. I invite people to bring a circumstance or situation for which they wish to receive insight and intuition. We Circle, meaning we share listening and speaking, we listen for what arrises from our figurative center, and we welcome feeling moved and awakened.

Humans being moved by flow. It’s a practice I both love and need.

Gifts of Circle - Question Cardsasd
Gifts of Circle is 30 short essays divided into 4 sections: 1) Circle's Bigger Purpose, 2) Circle's Practice, 3) Circle's First Requirements, and 4) Circle's Possibility for Men. From the Introduction: "Circle is what I turn to in the most comprehensive stories I know -- the stories of human beings trying to be kind and aware together, trying to make a difference in varied causes for which we need to go well together. Circle is also what I turn to in the most immediate needs that live right in front of me and in front of most of us -- sharing dreams and difficulties, exploring conflicts and coherences. Circle is what I turn to. Circle is what turns us to each other."

Question Cards is an accompanying tool to Gifts of Circle. Each card (34) offers a quote from the corresponding chapter in the book, followed by sample questions to grow your Circle hosting skills and to create connection, courage, and compassionate action among groups you host in Circle.

In My Nature
is a collection of 10 poems. From A Note of Beginning: "This collection of poems arises from the many conversations I've been having about nature. Nature as guide. Nature as wild. Nature as organized. I remain a human being that so appreciates a curious nature in people. That so appreciates questions that pick fruit from inner being, that gather insights and intuitions to a basket, and then brings the to table to be enjoyed and shared over the next week."

Most Mornings is a collection of 37 poems. I loved writing them. From the introduction: "This collection of poems comes from some of my sense-making that so often happens in the morning, nurtured by overnight sleep. The poems sample practices. They sample learnings. They sample insights and discoveries. They sample dilemmas and concerns."
