Description
Seminar Themes
The Leader's Way, ideally, is one of gowing alignment with one's true nature and an increasing ability to express it authentically and graciously in the world.
The 'Keys to Personal Mastery' facilitate both growing alignment and its coherent expression in our interactions with others. They help us to perform more effectively as leaders, while unfolding our true nature.
The Keys ultimately take us beyond mastery to a deeper relationship with life itself in which we become a gift to ourslelves and an inspiration to others.
They open up a way of leading that is truly transformational, one that is
- Wise
- Guided by what is beautiful
- Ecological, in its sensitivity to the important facets of the big picture
- Passionate in its energy, vitality, and charisma
Orienting Elements:
- Tuning into Nature's Way, 'The Way of Unfolding'
- Connecting with the 'Pattern Which Connects':
- Five Keys to Personal Mastery
- Developing Attentiveness
- The Art of Reflection
- Clear thinking – using both heart and mind
- Committing to a chosen course of action
- Unfolding Creative Expression and Charisma
- Five Rhythms of the Creative Process
- Unfolding Awareness with Awareness Meditation
Our Approach
Our holistic approach to personal development and the unfolding of our true nature integrates best Western practice with traditional wisdom from the East.
During the seminar, we emphasize
personal learning and sharing through discussion, feedback in
pairs, small groups, and the community as a whole to stimulate reflection and open an honest exchange of experience.
Our aim is to nourish
the body, celebrate the senses, listen to the heart, as we embrace both shadow and light.
Typically, we stimulate deep transformation and awakening
through visits to places of power and meaning from the beauty and rich heritage
of Cyprus.
A minimum of cognitive input orients understanding and supports
the self-unfolding individual and group process, while simple but powerful exercises and practices, help us
- deepen our understanding of what we encounter
- integrate physically & emotionally what we open
up to
- connect our experience to the unfolding of our life
as a whole
- open to our power and presence as individuals and as Leaders
In particular to enliven and unfold our full potential, we:
- Use meditation to connect with our centre and Source
- Stimulate the natural creative expression of that Source in daily life with movement, drawing, freewriting, voice, etc.
- Realign the deep patterns orienting our lives, so that we can fulfil our purpose and dreams
- Deepen our connection with the Spirit of Life itself, by opening our hearts to the power and energy of Nature, the Sacred, and our Community
In returning to our centre and Source, connecting to our inner resources, clarifying our direction, and opening to our relationships, the Leader's 'Way' unfolds natrually through us.
