Session Four: Transforming Conflict (Constellating Change)

How can we work with conflict and difference as a source of transformation in our change work?

Join our Transforming Conflict session to learn how to leverage difference as an enabler in our organising work through productively working with the tensions, polarities and creating systems of restoration that support collaboration.

Every Monday: 6-Week Communication Embodiment Series

Deepening Embodiment For BIPOC

A 6-week communication embodiment series for folks who identify as Black, Indigenous, and people of color.

(Lead by Meenadchi and Co-Lead by Leonie Smith)

Are these things you've said or asked yourself:

“I have no idea why I acted that way.”

“I wish I had a different way of responding to them when they piss me off.”

“Why do I always let them get to me this way?”

Our bodies are our stewards, and it is also true that our bodies have been conditioned by many patterns and systems which are outside of our control. As we recognise these patterns and unwanted ways of behaving, it may feel confusing and irritating that we are unable to change as fast as we would like to change.

The reality is, communication is muscle memory. Changing our way of speaking takes time and practice. We must try different words and phrases and we must navigate the unexpected bodily responses (tightness, shutting down, fear) as we undo old patterns.

You will be invited to share relationship scenarios you struggle with. Scenarios can be of any nature, and should support you in moving towards the transformation you desire for yourself. Examples might include:

"I would like to get better at setting boundaries with my mother when she criticises me."

"I would like to respond with more kindness to my partner when she asks me for something during high stress periods of my work schedule."

"I would like to change the way I talk to myself when I make a mistake that I can't fix."

Using the tools of Non-Violent Communication, role plays, and family constellation work (a somatic tool for intergenerational healing), we will work to find the quality of communication that feels authentic and embodied for you. No prior experience is needed in order to join this class.
