How are we cultivating—co-holding and curating—the embers within us all for transformation? The presentation draws on our collective experiences—20 years of Generating Transformative Change, Emergent Leadership and Integral Sustainability engagement. It features key lessons we’ve co-learnt, with many participants, as we are responding to our challenging times. The times mean embracing the unknown, the unwanted, and/or the impossible in ways that are adaptive and generative. Key themes that emerge are the powers of attuning ourselves to our fuller senses. Aspects such as multiple layers of coherence and what they look and feel like alongside the relationships between individual and collective development form part of this. We’ve seen a significant shift too as the inquiries go deeper somatically, experientially, and in relationship, cultivating a wider awareness in the spaces around us. Moreover, the ontologies are shifting too. Our presentation touches on these aspects and more.

This workshop is an experiential dive into holding, catalyzing, and curating individual and collective emergence. We draw from 20 years of experience engaging with transformative learning and development in response to our challenging times. Inquiries include: what does it mean to embrace the unknown, the unwanted, and/or the impossible? How can we attune to ourselves, each other, and this moment in a way that supports presence and emergence? What does acting with greater coherence look and feel like? How can we orient to and from Awakened Wholeness? We will explore these inquiries somatically, experientially, and in relationship, stepping into a wider awareness in the spaces around us. These practices scaffold for depth and support resilience and adaptation. The workshop’s culmination involves embodying wholeness, walking into our futures, and authentically authoring the past. We aim to open into the depths of who we are and explore emergence together. Video https://youtu.be/PvpE7YlXiQQ
