Processing the Pandemic with Heart-Head-Hands

Wednesdays at 1pm EDT | 12pm CDT | 11am MDT | 10am PDT

These processing groups are intimate spaces (like small-group coaching) that support reflection, somatic awareness, and grounded re-commitment. Each week a new question frames the session, and we follow the same format: introductions, guided meditation, freewriting, and then conversation. 

During the time together, we use contemplative practices (guided meditation and freewriting) to ground and guide a conversation about how we’re experiencing, navigating, and meeting the individual and collective demands of this time.

We prioritize storytelling, reflect on lived experiences, and set intentions, responding to three questions that connect the heart, head, and hands:

  • Heart: What are you feeling?
  • Head: What are you thinking?
  • Hands: What are you doing (or able, willing, and ready to do)?

Together, we consider what’s demanded of us for living relationally and responsibly, for caring for ourselves and others, and for striving toward justice (social, racial, and environmental justice).

When will the group be offered?

Currently, I’m offering sessions through the fall, each taking up a question to guide conversation:

September 9th
How do I relate (functionally and dysfunctionally) to rest?

September 16th
What am I actively, daily practicing? (Because we’re always practicing something.)

September 23rd
How do I relate to money and resources?

September 30th
How can I better recognize and honor full humanity, complexity, and wholeness?

October 7th
What commitments guide both the everyday and the long-haul work of striving toward justice?

October 14th
How do we strengthen and grow emotional courage and stamina?

October 21st
How are we sitting with (or resisting) discomfort?

October 28th
What’s this election demanding of us, personally and collectively?

November 4th
What am I feeling, thinking, and doing today (day after the election)?

November 18th
What stories are unraveling or asking to be revisited and retold?

December 2nd
When, where, and how am I showing up as my best self? As my worst self? And why?

December 9th
When, where, and how do I feel limited in the ways I’m showing up? And why?

December 16th
How do we (dis)honor our own and others’ capacities for showing up?

What is the cost?

Anyone can attend for free.

I've been reflecting a lot on trails this winter a I've been reflecting a lot on trails this winter and feeling how grateful I am that my work, especially coaching, is rooted in relationships.
 
One-with-one coaching can mean many different things, but it always involves connecting, listening, question-asking, and co-learning. At its best, it highlights what’s possible—possible in writing, relations, and life.
 
If you're interested in learning more or want to try a session, reach out. I'm here.
 
*This photo shows me standing next to a carved statue of two bears (adult and cub). Bears remind me of the importance of introspection and self-work, especially during the winter hibernation season. What are you reflecting on these days?
