Authentic Relating Games

We're happy to host our first Authentic Relating Games night. What’s Authentic Relating? According to authrev.org:

⁠⁠> Authenticity is acting and speaking in alignment with our inner feelings, desires, and needs. Authentic Relating (AR) is the practice of bringing our truth into connection with others’, so that we can weave a more rich and truthful human experience.

And what are AR Games?

⁠> AR Games were created to give you a playbook for how to begin relating on an authentic level. Often communication starts and stops because we feel unsure about how to approach it, what to say, or what to ask. Turning communication into a game provides a guiding structure and set of agreements for everyone involved. This removes a lot of the stress and anxiety from connection, and adds in an inviting element of play.

If you’re curious, you can find many examples of AR Games e.g. here:

Disclaimer: We've often participated in but never hosted AR Games ourselves before, so please don’t expect too much. 🙂 Imagine a loosely facilitated evening in a laid-back, fun, safe, and of course authentic atmosphere.
