Listening in Connection: Felt-Perception Attention
On 20 April 2013, we came together at nSite to explore and deepen our practice of listening in connection both at the I-in-you (empathetic) and I-in-now (generative) level.
With Theory U (www.theoryu.com) offering the framework, an experiential journey unfolded and potent collective messages were coming through to be synthesized and shared.
We started and closed with "What are you hearing?" "What are you listening to?"
Discover what unfolded in our Collective Harvest
Arrival
how are we arriving?
what are you hearing? what are you listening to?
Framing
the Fields of Listening and Attention: Observe, Observe,Observe
U framing: Levels of Listening (from habits/from outside/from within/from Source) and Field structure of Attention (I-in-me/I-in-it/I-in-you/I-in-now)
Centering
Listening inwards
Giving attention to our inner sounds
Breath and Sound practice
Individual - Collective
(facilitated by Zena T.)
Empathic Listening
Role of the Listener to see the other as a bringer of gift
Pairs working together:
Touch each other
One speaks about the gifts that are hidden in the well spring's source that is safe to bring them forth today.
The other listens (no problem solving/coaching) - simply giving attention
followed by a pause and switching of roles
Through the Attentive Listening practice
Partner's offer back the gifts they sensed and saw that was not revealed by the other
Connection
3 words that express the experience
Framing from the Community Felt-Perception presentation
Generative Listening: Source
How can we bring Nature and the wider field into the experience.
As the weather with the intensity of the rain was strongly inviting us inwards, the outdoor practice had to be shifted to another. The bag of resources was opened and Social Presencing Theatre showed up.
Two group of triads was formed.
Each individual was invited to bring a question/a problem/a decision they want to make into the experience.
Explore. Listen. Feel. Respond.
Notice what moves in you.
Allow the experience to offer you insights.
Check-out
What are you hearing? What are you listening to?
What perspective of this experience will you take with you?
Haven't seen the beauty that was co-created in our center,
check it out in our Collective Harvest

Next session will be about Perspective and Vision on 11 May 2013.

Felt-Perception Sensory Field Learning Journey starts ...
What is the role of felt-perception in our daily life?
Where can the sensory field participate in our personal and work spaces?
Who is attuned to what matters to our heart, here and now, sparking our thoughts to bring meaningful action out there and now?
On 06 April 2013, a journey into our felt-perception began its movement
An integrated process was experienced
A welcoming circle brought all the feelings in the room into one breathing space
Finding meaning, by exploring our understanding of "personality" and "individuality"
Framing the context with "Awareness", "Awakening" and "Self" in the center
Facilitating a journaling process - following the published Theory U practice
Integrating music, movement and art as ways of expressing while deeply reflecting
Letting it all be, with an organically emerging instrumental composition by all, right there
Sharing views on the process with each other, safeguarding the content, rightfully theirs
"What stays with you?" a question which generated a collective story, harvested below
A circle check-out with "What color will you choose now?", revealing tones and hues
A closure with a collective lunch, nourishment in togetherness
An integrated process that brings individual in community into application
Engage your senses and witness
