[OSList] About time and napping

[Carmela Ariza]

Yes for me naps are okey. <br/><br/>I am not sure in a non OS set up if it is acceptable though to everyone if you nap during small group workshops for example. <br/><br/>But even in these nonOS sessions participants accept if I retreat at lunch break, sleep by the beach while they chat over lunch. They don't expect me to be with them all the time. <br/><br/>And always when we meditate or pause before or after a session to be silent, I tell my participants it's okey to sleep during that 1, 5 or 10 minute silence. They come out refreshed I think. <br/><br/>In one nonOS workshop, a big guy approached me and said: "can I have a copy of your meditation music? I really like them, it makes me feel so relaxed." So I gave him what he asked for. <br/><br/>In the Manila OS conference on the future of learning some participants took a nap during sessions, Harrison was away and out of sight in some sessions. There were mats all around inside and outside, under the
 trees, so that those who want to take a nap can do so. <br/><br/>In one OS summit though, I heard at least two participants criticize us facilitators for taking naps while OS sessions were on going. For majority of the participants it was there first OS. <br/><br/>So reactions can vary. It is important I think to prepare the group well. <br/><br/>It's similar I think to whether we use chairs, tables or not. Participants will have different views. <a href="https://overview.mail.yahoo.com?.src=iOS"><br/><br/>Sent from Yahoo Mail for iPhone</a>
