The Highly Sensitive Person & We Space with Tom Habib, Ph.D.
Details
The Highly Sensitive Person & We Space
The research results of the Unique Attributes Study will be presented in the context of developing We-Space first presented at IEC2020. Resonance & Coherence will be deepened via breakout exercises that focus upon what was found in this research. The HSP subcategories such as neuronal sensitivity and propensity to overwhelm will be mapped out. This is a highly participatory workshop for folks with sufficient interior awareness & capable of showing up in moments of transparency. A link will be provided for you to take the HSP questionnaire prior to the presentation if you did not participate in the study.
In February, 2017 San Diego Integral began the Focused Integral Group Discussion (FIGD) which is a meta-structuring format where we briefly switch into an agreed upon process to optimally utilize the We-Space. The objective of FIGD is to collectively feel deeper into any topic and promote a causal state experience where we briefly switch from a collective I to a collective we. A Focused Integral Group process is "running in the background" until a salient moment rises that we want to explore. This may be derived from a presentation, a poignant comment by a member, a poem...whatever has resonance and can be horizontally expanded by the collective. This moment is identified by the "moderator" who helps maintain focus.
FIGD have three parts. It begins with a formal focus, followed by commentary on the process and then a discussion. Each segment lasts for 3-8 minutes. We have committed to a minimal of three FIGD per meeting. We have found that the intensity of these collective focused moments have increased with experience and skill and seem to delightfully persist throughout the three phases. This is very much an experimental process we have been Improving upon after each meeting.
As previously mentioned FIGD was initially described for the February, 2017. The sequential evolution of FIGD can be seen in the PAGES tab above. New or returning members are encouraged to read these brief papers in preparation for participation. Updates have followed each SDI meeting.
SDI is committed to the creative advance into novelty.
If you have a topic suggestion please let us know and we'll bring it to the conversation.
