Comment on Mural on History of Graphic Facilitation / Recording Fields by April Doner https://www.shift-it-coach.com/2007/07/mural-on-history-of-graphic-facilitation-recording-fields/#comment-907346 Wed, 23 Oct 2024 21:37:03 +0000 http://www.shift-it-coach.com/blog/?p=80#comment-907346 This is fascinating!
I am not sure if you have heard of it, but I learned over a decade ago about the years of work within the Independent Living Movement and its emphasis on using graphic recording/facilitation in their grassroots processes for helping folks with disabilities reclaim sovereignty over their lives while enlisting the love and support of their friends, family and community. (PATHS and MAPS processes are two tools used in this.) The person-centered planning movement was also tied to this, and some of the folks I know involved were John and Connie O’Brien and Beth Mount.

I think this could be a wonderful stream of (I think) concurrently emerging practice to include when you are sharing about the history!

Also, I’m not sure where it fits in but I know the Art of Hosting network and field has been highly instrumental in promoting graphic facilitation as a core ingredient in hosting powerful group processes to innovate amidst complexity.

Comment on PRIMORDIAL ENERGY ACTIVATION & TRANSCENDENCE (PEAT) by Franco Well https://www.shift-it-coach.com/2015/08/primordial-energy-activation-transcendence-peat/#comment-903145 Thu, 12 Oct 2023 18:34:36 +0000 http://www.shift-it-coach.com/?p=19126#comment-903145 I had great success self processing with PEAT, about 20 years ago. I worked directly out of the book. It all made sense to me because of familiarity with Polarity Therapy since the late 70s.

Your program looks quite interesting. I’m thinking about doing it.

Hi Jake,

Thank you for your interest. I see the Psychotherapy Networker has updated thier website and those links no longer work.

We searched their site and found the following blog, Esther Perel on the Capstone Marriage And another one on YouTube on “Finding Happiness in the Capstone Marriage

I hope this helps. 🙂

Comment on INNER WORK: RESCUE YOUR ORPHANS by Christina Merkley https://www.shift-it-coach.com/2020/04/inner-work-rescue-your-orphans/#comment-897756 Sun, 28 Feb 2021 02:39:48 +0000 https://www.shift-it-coach.com/?p=35907#comment-897756 In reply to Hugh Perry.

Hi Hugh.

Ahhhh SMA. I remember it well!

Sure hope to get back there again in the future and run some more groups with Rhoda!

Congrats on continuing to move forward on your own developments.

Its the “Orphan Rescue” protocol you are referring to. I use it extensively in my work in many places. Great way to deal with activation when one notices a triggering or reactivity is happening (which will happen with you follow the breath!). Its a way to use the activation as a portal to go within and see ‘who inside is uncomfortable’. Usually a younger aspect of oneself (either baby, child, teenager, adult … or even Past Life or Multi-Dimensional aspect). That needs tending to. The protocol guides on how to do that.

Probably the first place to direct folks to is my Free Community Support page, for the free Process Popups and Free Recorded Visual Coaching Sessions I’ve been running since the Pandemic started. And will likely be for the foreseeable future.

I do straight on Orphans Rescues quite a lot in these forums. And also blend them into Self Inquiry and other approaches.

Orphan Rescue and other depth protocols are also available via my Visual Satsangs and in Private Coaching Sessions.

Thanks for asking. All the best with your unfoldment. Take care.

You probably remember me from SMA last year with Iryna.
Lots of good stuff is happening. I’ve developed a program that spoke about in SMA. Its called Living Behind Your Breath. I’ve been doing live presentations and am now completing a guide book of the same title. One chapter applies to adapting the Breath for slowly become the adult observer to give loving council to our Inner Child.
I remember hearing you us the phase, “inner child rescue” or adoption I think.
Anyhow, therapy is not my art so I don’t get into it in depth, but like to add a footnote referencing a course directed to this, if you have one.
Hope to hear from you, Hugh
