Feedback
Honouring Consent, Enhancing Listening
Have you ever felt the disconnect when someone gives you well-meaning advice, but it’s just not what you want or need in that moment? Sometimes, all we crave is to express ourselves without feeling pressured to be "fixed".
​
And yet, everyone who has found their way to this page has an urge to change and grow, and listening to the people who know you best is a great way to do that.
​
How can we genuinely listen without the urge to immediately fix?
When and how should we prioritize seeking consent before offering feedback?
Explore the art of understanding your vulnerabilities and effectively expressing your needs.
​
Learn to cultivate an open mind and body to receive feedback gracefully, separating your self worth from the words being shared.
Overview and important questions
01
Why you would want to join
Join us as we embark on a journey of building awareness and sensitivity to our own needs and the needs of those around us, embracing the art of giving and receiving feedback as a catalyst for personal growth and deeper connections.
This interactive session is designed to provide you the experiential taste of both sides - the art of giving feedback with consent, and receiving feedback without becoming defensive.
Let’s gain insight into the intentions behind our desire to give or receive feedback, fostering inner clarity.
Let’s cultivate sensitivity to ensure that our feedback is embraced, rather than imposed upon others.
Let’s consider the profound difference between being resistant or receptive to someone else's words.
Engaging in the exchange of feedback with those we hold in high regard is vital for our journey of personal and professional development. Approaching this process with a grounded sense of clarity and ease holds immense value, enriching not just your own journey, but also fostering deeper relationships with the people around us.
In short:
-
Gain clarity on the intention of feedback
-
Understand the different responses - listening, deepening understanding, offering advise, fixing, etc.
-
Learn embodied tools to support listening and receiving feedback alike
02
Why the focus on embodiment?
As most of our human experience cannot be reduced to a rational or cognitive level, especially when face with challenging experiences, we want to look beyond.
Learning to set boundaries often connects to a sense of needing to defend oneself against a threat and hence comes with a strong emotional and psycho-physiological reality. Thinking your way out of scenarios and an activation based on a perceived threat is near impossible. Therefore we will begin there.
​
The physical is also the easiest level to approach with concrete tools. It is more impactful to include and start with the body.
03
What you will walk away with
The ability to establish or feel out a consensual frame for giving feedback that ensures the feedback actually lands on fertile ground.
​
Embodied tools to shift into appropriate states of receptivity and enhance your capacity to listen and receive feedback without taking it overly personal.
​
Communication tools ​to gain clarity needs and intentions within the context of feedback.
​
Enhanced skill to access your own intentions for giving feedback and shifting into a place of "being in service to".
04
