The creative and open-ended nature of our work can be a source of confusion and anxiety for practitioners at any stage of experience. The practices I will offer during these sessions are meant to help you navigate the complexity of Functional Integration® with more ease, observe and understand some of the elements of choice-making, build your tolerance of uncertainty, and turn what can be a source of worry into FUN.
To participate, you will need an in-person partner who is another practitioner. (For those unable to partner with a practitioner, you may participate with a trusted individual who acts as your ‘client’. The ‘client’ who is not a practitioner must be comfortable with you experimenting—a friend or family member who you are not charging. Hopefully this is a rare instance.) You will also need a table and/or floor space to practice both FI and ATM. Please arrange for the working space to be visible to the camera; check lighting, camera angle, etc. ahead of time.
