2024 02 27 then fourth Tuesdays- Monthly practice sessions with Enactive Research

2024 02 26 Re-Wilding: Opening to Unfolding Paradigms
Four weekly sessions 3:00 to 4:30 pm in person at the Jung Center. Explore how we can choose to adapt in harmony with organic processes and shifting paradigms.

    As the world struggles to control and understand Artificial Intelligence, this powerful technology is already affecting our lives. But as conscious beings embedded in the world, we have capacities and responsibilities that AI does not. What happens if we become deeply receptive to this embeddedness and other living systems and allow the emergent insights to fuel our shared evolution? With awareness, we can choose to adapt in harmony with organic processes and shifting paradigms. In this four-week course, we will learn ways to be in touch with three basic but powerful human capacities and practice them together: being kinesthetically aware of constant change, feeling "in relationship" with the world, and noticing what is not yet fully conscious. We will allow our discussion to follow our personal insights, and the class itself to evolve as we inquire into our experience. In the process we will develop greater capacity to be aware in other relational situations.

    Recommended but not required: consider also take George Hu's Thai Chi class at the Jung Center. It begins earlier in the year than the Re-Wilding course, January 22. It is also scheduled on Mondays beginning at 4:45. One can easily pair the courses. Disclaimer: I am not associated with Master Hu, but take his classes. I experience his teaching as direct training in embodied awareness. His teaching does not focus on learning routines, but attends to personal awareness of movement for health and balance.

Individual Sessions

Interviews: Phenomenological Inquiry
Individual interviews are designed to follow your personal process and discover implicit knowing at increasingly subtle levels of awareness. The breadth and depth of personal awareness gradually deepens. Discover emergent knowing and release personal bias. Adapt in harmony with organic processes and shifting paradigms.

Groups or Organizational Settings

Enhancing Creative Potential through Creative Cooperative Processes
Develop skill in creating cooperatively within and as a part of systems in which you are involved. We offer training and ongoing support as needed for your team or group, while also fostering independence from reliance on our support.The following legacy courses tailored for your community or organization are available by contract: NEW: Enactive Approaches at enactiveresearch.org.
Enaction or enactive approaches focus on awareness at all system levels in science and other domains or communities. The work/play is in effect applied Process Philosophy and may be the most significant contribution one can make to the many challenges of our time, including the possibility of correcting mistakes we have made and continue to make by assuming a more substantial view of the world.
