Open Space. We sometimes think that when people are not racing about and
sharing marvelous new insights that nothing is happening. At such times some
one may remark that the “energy is low.” My experience of such
moments is rather different. To me it is not so much about the energy being “low”
– as if that were somehow not a good thing. Rather, I find the energy
just to be different. In fact some of the best moments I have experienced in
Open Space occur when everybody is totally silent, just sitting there content
with the silence. For me the capacity of a group to sit in total silence just
enjoying the silence and each other is a prime indication that everything is
working to perfection. </span></font></p>

In the holy space of Yom Kippur, toward the end of the full-day fast, as a

Understand, I run programs on human dignity and cellphone abuse is one of the
examples that come up as people explore the ways in which they abuse each
other’s space, and here I was, Dr. Dignity, forgetting to turn off before

I’d be happy to hear from folks who have done this sort of thing. I will
be presenting the idea to the school parents’ committee Wednesday, and
I’m thinking that we should go for inviting to the space all teachers,
parents, perhaps the older students (7-9<sup>th</sup> graders) and assorted
additional stakeholders. 450 kids learn thee, so it could be a big event. Any
thoughts, tips from people’s experience will be appreciated. Thanks much
