At this weekend immersion we will focus on Innocence. We will explore the deep needs for love, freedom and connection that drives us and practice how we can meet each other with respect and compassion for how these innocent needs show up.
-------------------------------------------------
Vision
“Listening for love” has become a bigger aspect of the Circling & Surrendered Leadership practice for us. It implies listening for the innocence that is behind the words that are being spoken, hearing the deep need for love and connection that are always there, even when what is expressed is anger or resentment.
It seems true that what we long for the most, and are simultaneously the most scared of, is to be met in our innocence. Often this implies showing up in something that we see as wrong - the parts of us that we have left behind, because they weren’t welcomed when we were young.

Some of the themes that will likely come up this weekend are:
- Getting in touch with parts of yourself that feel wrong, inappropriate or harmful.
- Trusting and moving with innocence.
- Listening for the needs in what is being spoken
- Seeing others in their imperfect perfection.

We will as always be training the muscles of:
- Staying connected to your present moment experience.
- Allowing yourself to be impacted by others and sharing that impact.
- Generously sharing yourself in service of connection.
- Deeply listening to the experience of others.
- Meeting others from a place of love.
- Bringing presence and truth into connection without being attached to the outcome.

What are relational presencing practices
With relational presencing practices we are pointing to practices and leadership approaches such as Circling, Relatefulness and Transformational Connection. These practices are great for getting more in touch with our present moment experience together with someone else. It typically involves sharing our thoughts, feelings or bodily sensations as they are happening and then seeing how it impacts the people around us.

What is Surrendered Leadership?
One way of understanding Surrendered Leadership is that it is an opportunity to see your own Karma in action. You get to see how the way you are holding yourself in the world impacts others and thus feeds back to become your experience of the world. More concretely Surrendered Leadership is a group practice where you are invited to surrender/welcome whatever is happening for you in the moment and lead yourself from there.

What is embodiment?
Embodiment points to actually being there, in your body, taking up as much space as you do with whatever is going on for you. The path to more embodiment typically is a process of discovery where we start noticing all the ways in which we are holding ourselves back, suppressing emotions or not trusting that we are welcome.

Price and payment info
The suggested price for the intro evening is 20-30 euro.
If you only want to participate in the introduction evening or want to check out what this is, before signing up to the full weekend, this is for you.
The suggested price for the event is 300 euro (including the intro evening).
We hold an intention of wanting everyone to be able to participate, regardless of income situation. If you find that the regular price is too high for you, you can choose a price that feels honoring of the work while possible for you to pay.
If on the other hand, the suggested price feels very cheap (if you are thinking that this event can’t be high quality, because of the price, this is for you), we would appreciate it if you would pay a bit more. This will also help us support those, who are not able to pay the suggested price.

I am a trained integral psychotherapist and offer conflict mediation and coaching and lead embodied and relational presencing workshops. In my workshops which I have led since 2020 people often feel both confronted and called by my truthfulness and deep attunement. I trust deeply in my experience and like to follow a sense of aliveness into the unknown.At this weekend immersion we will focus on Innocence. We will explore the deep needs for love, freedom and connection that drives us and practice how we can meet each other with respect and compassion for how these innocent needs show up.
