Intersubjectivity is the subtle, tangible connection that arises between two or more individuals, emerging from their shared awareness of the underlying energetic field. For those new to Integral Theory, this experience provides an accessible and impactful entry point—offering a memorable introduction while temporarily setting aside the complexities of meta-theory. Experienced clinicians skillfully harness this energetic phenomenon into a networking platform to spark co-creation. Events such as IEC and ICON highlight the importance of prioritizing these experiential encounters over purely academic frameworks. But what exactly are the highly skilled practitioners doing to cultivate this field? Become aware of your own and others unique capability during the IEC conference. Notice how you show up in each interaction or practice and whether-or-not you feed the resonant energy. Pay attention to how your awareness shapes your contributions and influences the collective experience.

There are poignant moments when viewing a movie when there is a sequence where we feel both joy and sadness. Often times we hide these powerful feelings and turn away from our companion, fearing over-exposure. What if we do not turn away and allow these complex and potent feelings to settle into a resonance to be felt between two or more people? This would be a We-Space; a form of non-verbal presencing and witnessing. In this workshop we will transmute these feelings into stable pathways between alternating pairs of participants. We will utilize selected video sequences to ignite these feelings and learn how to lay down these transformative pathways that sustain the mutual experience. As a group we will describe the process of “how we did it” and collect this knowledge for you to later use in your community and in your intimate relationship. This is a highly participatory workshop for folks with sufficient interior awareness who are capable of showing up in moments of transparency and are willing to describe the unitive experience.
