Rebirth of Vision: A five-step Journey to Remember your 'Why" guided by Chantal Georges and Olubode Shawn Brown
OVERVIEW:
During the pandemic, many of us gathered over ZOOM seeking community, using specific BLOOM techniques to deepen our connections and our understanding of ourselves and each other. We experienced the creative healing power of this on-going work and wanted to share it with others. This work spoke to the importance of collective spaces as containers for individual and communal healing.
The Problem
I It has been said that “without a vision we perish.” Increasingly now we are hearing the importance of knowing your “WHY.” For us, your VISION is your “WHY.” It is the lens through which we see everything: any project, any job, any relationship. Yet too often, we move through spaces unconsciously, to our peril. When we do this, we start and stop things, jobs become unfulfilling, it is difficult to commit, and we lose touch with our ability to consistently focus, to listen, move through the noise and choose a purposeful sense of direction.
The Solution
Imagine that one’s VISION IS THE STATE OF BEING THROUGH WHICH WE SEE THE WORLD. In this workshop we say that a VISION is remembered as much as it is seen; that when we see our VISION, we remember ourselves. And it is this remembered beingness that allows us to see the world in new and energizing ways.
Imagine that your VISION can be remembered through your life’s brightest and darkest moments. This workshop invites participants to gently explore these moments using five powerful reflective questions and embodied techniques.
Together we will create a powerful ritual space of rebirthing in which VISIONS can be remembered and seen.
WHO IS IT FOR?
This workshop is for participants that are healers and those seeking to be healed. This workshop is for anyone who wants to seek an understanding or wants to align with their purpose—their “why.”
It is for enterprise creatives, transitioning professionals, and enterprise leaders who are looking to understand what might be next in their lives.
The Objectives:
· A greater understanding of self and story
· The ability to repurpose challenging experiences for greater meaning
· A takeaway tool to help support yourself and others in finding new VISION.
