Could overwhelm be one of the most quintessentially 2021 experiences?
Will we look back at this moment and marvel? How did we find the courage to go deeper, to soothe our panicked nervous systems, to find the ground for cooperation, community and innovation in the face of so many challenges?
If overwhelm is vintage 2021, what does the coming year ask of all of us?
As processworkers, we know that to get out of something, we usually have to go further into it.
We must find the courage and the resilience to unfold disturbing energies fully, to reclaim and embody them into a nourishing, life-giving flow of creativity and optimism that takes us into a sustainable future.
It helps me to remember that in moments of overwhelm, we can practice conscious surrender. Allow the process to move us. As Arny says, if 'you' cannot do it, celebrate :-) You cannot do it. So relax. Something else can. Allow it.
Don’t be alone with the overwhelm … join us for the Processwork online intensive, starting in three weeks. Become part of a community of practice, discovery and mutual support - let’s find the dreaming path into 2022 together.
In solidarity, with love and hope

How do transformation, death, and rebirth, figure in our lives towards reaching 'The Other Shore'? Throughout our lives, we 'die' again and again.
How do we process the endings of: relationships, careers, communities, and our own personal health, physical, mental, and spiritual, especially in these times? And then, how do we proceed with what's next, to be reawakened, reborn, renewed?
Join us for Process-Oriented brain storming and heart sharing, Inner Work and consultation.

Understand and Develop Your Skills in Facilitating
the Dynamics of Systemic Oppression
|
|
with Errol Amerasekera & Lane Arye
Fridays, April 15 & 29, May 13 & 27, 3-6pm PT
Dealing with diversity issues is one of the fundamental challenges of our times. The push towards marriage equality, the #MeToo movement, and #BlackLivesMatter have been instrumental in raising awareness of these important dynamics. Yet as a society, we remain as polarized and divided as ever. These tensions get reflected in our organizations, teams, families and even in our relationships. Understanding and then facilitating these dynamics of systemic oppression is one of the keys in how we move towards a society that has fairness, justice and equity as its fundamental tenets.
This 12 hour training over four classes is designed to provide participants with an overview of four key dynamics we are required to understand and then build our facilitation skills around in order to more effectively work with these complicated and entrenched themes.

Processwork is a modality inspired by indigenous knowledge, and we offer our respect to the elders, past and present, who have stewarded the land and indigenous knowledge and practices for generations.
We acknowledge the land where we are privileged to be based, now called Portland, Oregon in Multnomah County, as the traditional lands of the Multnomah, Kathlamet, Clackamas, bands of Chinook, and other tribes who made their homes along the Columbia River.
We pay our respects to the resilient and proud communities of native people currently living here and recognize the devastating histories of colonization and systemically racist policies that have impacted and continue to impact indigenous peoples here and around the world. We work towards a world where respect for indigenous people, culture, knowledge and practices, creates the basis for a vibrant, diverse and just community.
