About us
This is a group for anyone who is interested in deepening their awareness of themselves through relating with others.
Authentic Relating (AR) is a movement very popular in the US, that teaches ways of connecting deeply with oneself and others through games and applicable practices. AR is a celebration of all parts of ourselves that draws us closer together in our shared exquisitely messy humanness.
AR has been called a "relational meditation", where you can broaden your awareness of who you are by simply being present with another.
This group will also hold other conscious connecting events to introduce you to like-minded humans in deep and meaningful ways.
We look forward to knowing you.

Fundamentals of Authentic Relating - In Tension with Others
Mysore Melbourne, 2B Elm Street, Northcote, AUIt’s easy to feel connected when everything is smooth. But the real test is when there is tension: when something feels off, when boundaries are crossed, or when conflict arises.
Instead of creating distance by avoiding these moments or pushing through them, this workshop is an invitation to stay relational while navigating friction.
You will learn tools to reduce the likelihood of tensions creeping in and the skills to stay in connection when navigating conflicts.Through playful, insightful and connecting activities, we will explore what supports honest and resilient relationships, and experiment with how to:
-
Become more aware of the contexts we operate in
-
Limit misunderstandings or unmet expectations that lead to disappointment
-
Offer feedback in a way that builds trust
-
Stay grounded when someone is coming with a charge
-
Navigate our own triggers without collapsing or attacking
-
Repair connection after a rupture
The workshop tends to attract around 20 participants. It is a mix of structured activities in pairs or small groups (50%), facilitated reflection time (30%) and teachings (20%).
After the workshop you will be emailed session notes (a summary of teachings, prompts for self reflection, suggestions for integration in daily life etc.)
