Daylong Connection Games in Berkeley

Saturday, September 30, 2017 at 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM PDT

2336 Channing Way
Berkeley, CA 94704


CONNECTION GAMES ARE...
• Self-leadership and leadership training
• A fun way to connect with like-minded others
• A chance to explore your interpersonal edges and grow
• Interpersonal meditation: a collective spiritual practice
Our only agreements, and the values we strive for:
1. Practice Self-Leadership
2. Return To Connection
3. Consider Group Health

LOGISTICS
You must be 21 or over to attend all Connection Games events.
Doors open 15 minutes prior to the event. Hearty, nutritious snacks will be available at that time. In order to support a sacred container, doors will close by 10 minutes after the start time and will not reopen for late participants. There will be a lunch break incorporated into the schedule of the day.

WHAT HAPPENS
This event is dynamically steered. Unlike other similar events like circling, T-Group, authentic relating, the facilitator doesn't know the program ahead of time.
This means that YOU have a choice to impact the agenda!
We tend to start with the basics (Council, T-Group) and go from there. Sometimes people are chomping at the bit to take more risks, and we do. Other times the mood is sweet and connected, and we do more basic, safe, connecting practices. Sometimes a random idea arises out of attunement with the group (sometimes suggested by a participant) and we do that.

HAIKUS FOR EACH CORE CONNECTION GAME
COUNCIL
Take turns, three guidelines
Speak and listen from the heart.
