Dear Chris<br> <br> what an inspiring book !<br> <br> Thank you<br> louise<br><br><b><i>Chris Corrigan <chris@chriscorrigan.com></i></b> a écrit :<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> Friends:<br><br>I am pleased to announce the release of a small book I have been working on for the last three years. It is called "The Tao of Holding Space" and it is a collection of interpretations of the 81 short chapters of the Chinese classic Tao te Ching as they apply to my experience of holding space. I started this book three years ago, when I began noting parallels between Lao Tzu's words and my experience of leadership, facilitation and living in Open Space, something many of us have done. In some ways this book chronicles the essence of my own emergent practice of Open Space. In looking over it one more time, I realized that almost everything I know about
Open Space is somehow distilled into these chapters <br><br>I have written here many times over the years about the appreciation I have for the teachers on this list. Signing on to the OSLIST is one of the single most important decisions I have ever made. And so, listmates and friends in this practice, I ultimately wrote this for you, individually and collectively. Some of you will see your words and ideas expressed in here as I learned and Incorporated them into my own practice. Harrison's words are here of course, as are many of Michael Herman's relating to practice and invitation. And I took Lisa Heft's "model enthusiasm" as the subject of one chapter. These among others. I have a been an active listener all these years! <br><br>You can download it here:<br><br><a href="http://www.chriscorrigan.com/ftp/Tao_of_holding_space.pdf">http://www.chriscorrigan.com/ftp/Tao_of_holding_space.pdf</a><br
clear="all"><br>Please feel free to share it as widely as you see fit. It is a small offering of gratitude for all that I have learned from this community over the past 10 years. <br><br>With deep appreciation for the inspiration and continued learning,<br><br>Chris<br><br>-- <br>CHRIS CORRIGAN<br>Consultation - Facilitation<br>Open Space Technology<br><br><br>Weblog: <a href="http://www.chriscorrigan.com/parkinglot"> http://www.chriscorrigan.com/parkinglot</a><br>Site: <a href="http://www.chriscorrigan.com">http://www.chriscorrigan.com</a> * * ========================================================== OSLIST@LISTSERV.BOISESTATE.EDU ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of oslist@listserv.boisestate.edu: http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist </blockquote><br><BR><BR>Louise
