Authentic Relating is a paradigm practice created to support healthy and fulfilling connections. It rests upon 5 theoretical pillars, and mediates it’s life changing effects equally much through teaching skills as through direct re-experiencing of self in connection with others.
What’s alive in the moment is always the greatest teacher.
The quality and potential of our connections with others is inseparable from the quality of our own connection within and awareness of our experience. As these will dictate our reactions, needs and expressions, whether we’re aware of it or not. Authentic Relating actively encourages self discovery, care and agency as it is the fertile soil interpersonal connection blooms from. This, with practice, often leads to a surprisingly empowering effect with positive change transferring to all areas of life.
The practices are both verbal and non-verbal, intellectual and somatic / intuitive, playful and serious – all deeply rooted in the values of welcoming everything, honesty, responsibility and caring intentionality.
Authentic Relating is not therapy.
