body-mind and facilitation conversations

[Harrison Owen]

Alex - Welcome to the list! I am not quite clear whether you are thinking
about OST as a body/mind practice (which I think it is) or are wondering
about the relation of body/mind practices to the facilitation of Open
Space?? In terms of the later I have found that the quality of facilitation
goes up to the extent that the facilitator is "totally present and
absolutely invisible" - which of course never quite happens but it is a
goal. Finding that quiet, centered place is best achieved in my experience
through some fairly serious meditation. Actually I think this may be the
most important thing when it comes to facilitation of Open Space. All the
rest of it can just sort of happen. You might check out the chapter in my
book, Open Space Technology: A User's Guide, which I called "Personal
Preparation for Open Space."

Hello, 

I am new to OS List and the OS world, introduced via Lisa Heft in SF. 

 

I am passionate about body/mind/transformative work and would appreciate
having a discussion if you have the interest.

I invite you to consider these points and let me know if you'd be open to a
sharing conversation.

 

Body-mind/transformative practices and group work in general. 

As body/mind practices relate to OS, I do understand the value in keeping OS
separate from other influences, so this part of the question is more about
how practices have influenced you.

 

In this context - what do you do, what have you done, what do you think the
world is ready for (or needs)?

 

I look forward to speaking with you.

Alex
