In-person Evening Group! Here and Now Encounter... for Authenticity + Connection

'Amazing experience that I don't get anywhere else.' - Deborah, 20 June 2016**

You are welcome to attend this in-person group for a unique experience in encounter with other individuals and yourself.
The invitation is to:
+++ +++ +++ +++
stay as much as possible in the 'here and now',
+++ +++ +++ +++
...in order to maximize the opportunity for authentic meeting.
All you have to do is bring your own real, flawed and beautiful self, and come with curiosity about what we might co-create.

Your host

Richard Mills...
I've been going to Here-and-Now groups since 1992 and I love them! I've learned so much about myself, especially what holds me back and what gives me joy. Since 2010 I have been hosting this group in Leeds, and since the pandemic it's been online too.

During the group
+++ +++
Here’s my advice: in each moment, notice your current:
• Wishes
• Needs
• Feelings
Share these with the group, if you like.
• Try to AVOID describing aspects of your personality, or things in your 'there and then' (e.g. job, relationships, past events), when you are not charged.

NB. At the END of each meeting there is no debrief, or checkout, so it's up to you to say anything you want within the meeting time.

This group space
+++ +++
This unstructured group space offers the prospect of interpersonal meeting and process: encounter with others invariably invokes all kinds of feelings inside the self, and this space offers the chance to experience and reflect on these. The unfolding of the group will be unpredictable and will offer the opportunity for unexpected dialogue and experience.

Important note: This group is not for absolutely everyone. Please read the notes in the group description that give more detail about this.

My Role as co-participant
+++ +++
I will try to stay present and in contact with myself and others. My experience in this type of leader-less peer group is that the interactions between people inevitably facilitate the process.

Requests from me
+++ +++

1. Confidentiality: After the group, please don’t talk about what other people said or did in such a way that they can be identified.
2. Drugs: Please do not arrive whilst under the influence of alcohol or non-prescription drugs.
3. Please avoid talking after arriving, until the group start time. This is in order to keep all the energy available for group interaction with all present.
4. Smokers: please avoid smoking during the hour before the start of session time, in order to keep the air in the room smoke-free.
5. Shoes: I have a preference for ‘shoes off’.
6. Drinks: In the meeting room, please do not drink anything except water.
7. Perfumes: Please don’t put noticeable amounts of synthetic perfume on, as some people are allergic. If you must apply fragrant substances to your body, please consider using a small amount of oil or other natural product.
8. If you have a history of psychosis please contact me before booking.
