FAMILY="SANSSERIF"><BR>I am curious, those who have scheduled or seen
mini-OS's within a larger event, how necessary do you think it is to
necessarily do the whole circle walk, attention to breath, and other things
to open the space? Is it necessarily to even sit in a circle? My hunch is if
people have already worked together for more than a day that the space is
already open. I have already participated in a fully open OS before within a
multi-day conference (this was with Intertraining, the professional
association of trainers and consultants that Michael Pannewitz and Jo
Toepfer trained in OST. Almost everyone had at least participated in an OS,
if they hadn't led one already.)<BR></BLOCKQUOTE></FONT><FONT face=Geneva

be to do a little bit of ritual, to make a break between old paradigm and new,
so people are not just coming into a different room and going on with familiar
behavior and mindset. I think I would walk the circle and review the
principles and law--you might choose a different ritual, but I'd encourage you
to do something to establish that this Space is new.<BR><BR>Best of luck with
this--the subject is important, and I love that they have left some time for
more open conversation.<BR><BR>Joelle</FONT><FONT face=Geneva color=#000000
