Finding Our Poise in the Global Storm - A Free Online Workshop
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” C.G. Jung
It seems that the world is changing very fast, that chaos reigns, that we move from one global challenge to the next.
This has been going on for a while and it was never simple.
Global changes affect us deeply on many levels. Not always the reasons for the effects are what we believe they are.
Below are a couple of examples of surprising influences on our response to challenging times:
“In the first lockdown I just had to go to the forest. There I met others like me”
what did your grandfather do in WWII?
“Well, he was a partisan, fought the Naziz and lived with his comrades in the woods“.
“I’m personally doing okay but I feel these waves of sadness, anxiety or rage overwhelming me“.
Do you know what causes these waves?
“It feels like they belong to my people. my tribe, it’s about our collective pain“
These are turbulent times, in the US and globally.
Frequent changes, loss of the sense of personal and tribal safety, uncertain future, change of established rules and status quo, economic wars…
In such times we are prone to react rather than respond.
Reactions that stem from our personal, ancestral, tribal and collective unconscious
We tend to become too rigid or too soft,
being captured into activism and the savior complex,
to running away from it all,
to freeze or collapse with the pain of our tribe…
Finding our poise
Poise is a state of balance. It is about being able to stand or move gracefully, with self-possession, composure, and the ability to handle difficult situations.
Finding our poise is best supported by having a clear differentiation between ourselves, our ancestors, tribes and collectives,
by acknowledging the collective pain without drowning in it,
and by being supported by our ancestors who survived hardships, rather than entangled with their survival coping mechanisms.
As I come to the US for the first time as a professional facilitator and teacher, I would like to gift the people pf the US some of the experience I have gained in supporting ourselves through collective turmoil and hardship, to find or regain safe footing and poise.
To support our ability to stay present, resourced and focused on serving both ourselves and the world.
