Self and Relational Awareness Leadership

Co-creating and growing community for movement, change, and growth. Generative social fields to tune in with Self and Relationally — generate and discover broader perspectives, ideas, and ways of being

Generative Social Field

Focus on perspective-taking, Self understanding and communication through models and activities. We will explore realization of our perspectives and how we show up and communicate. Learn to lead with compassion and curiosity while honoring all agency. Models

Embodiment and Integration

Interaction and expansion of self and relational awareness, agility, and exploration in playful and experiential activities. Strengthening neural pathways for bridging learning and real world situations and applying them in a generative social field.

Who is it for?

  • Either at personal level or outer world — you are interested in growing and creating change. You want to explore parts of your Self and how you show up in relationships. You want to understand and creating authentic connections and explore your enthusiasm

  • In the workshops, we will explore and learn more about systems thinking and how we can use systems and mental models paired with somatic experiencing to evolve and grow

  • Learning to understand Self through models in community. You will explore models such as the Haven Selves, internal family systems and practice showing up as the authentic you

  • Learning to connect and communicate in congruence and coherence, while practicing with others with safe vulnerability. Get to understand your communication styles and how you can show up as the authentic and real Self

  • You are curious and wanting to learn more about yourself and get a deeper sense of perspective and view of your inner and outer worlds

What you will do here

During the sessions, you will learn about your Self. You will Individually and relationally explore edges of your awareness and learn how to integrate and expand your current reality to meet your vision.

You will have tools, practices, and community in a space to explore your current reality and uncover what authentic visions, ideas, or goals you might have for the authentic and ideal you.

Emotional exploration, Self and relational awareness leadership along with generativity will be at the core of these sessions.

Virginia Satir Iceberg Model

How we think

Satir Iceberg & Coping Stances

The Satir Model to explore deeper than the surface of behavior. Looking deeper into coping stances and feelings and moving towards what is authentically true at the core — the yearnings

Circle of Connectedness (MIT Center for Systems Awareness)

Understanding the different modes of being in relationships. Practice expanding awareness and exploration of neutral presence to create generative social fields for compassionate relationships and exploration

Generative Social Field

The foundation of the Enlivening space is held with a purpose for creating a generative social field where individuals and communities can be present and explore Self and relationships.

Focus is held on

  • Perceptions — how we think; emotions — what we feel; and actions — what we do

  • Relational Awareness — how we show up with the beings in our surroundings

  • Aspirational Awareness — what future do you envision

  • Somatic Awareness — tuning in with the body and the inner intelligence

Diagram illustrating the journey from an actual self to an ideal self, with stages including being, doing, and experiencing. It highlights qualities associated with each stage, such as playfulness and joy in being, self-critical and reactive in doing, and vulnerability and openness in the connection section. The model emphasizes authentic self and self-care.

Haven Selves Model

Understanding the Yearnings of the actual and current Self unveils how we view the path to an Ideal Self. Whether it is through the path of BEING and Fulfillment or the path of DOING and Striving.

This is an exploration of becoming aware of our choices and how we might show up in alignment to our inner yearnings in compassionate ways
