Holding Space: Circles

October 28, 2021

Right. What is “space” after all? Like… outer space? The 1.5m distance between us…? The space inside my “head” or my heart”?

From there, we will talk about the unseen details that can make someone an excellent space holder vs. someone who just throws events. How do you create safety in a space? How do you drum up a feeling of inclusion amongst participants? Where does your focus go? What happens if there’s a crisis? How do you prepare and follow up?

If you’re a leader or ritual “space holder,” come to this class. This information has never been taught before. A TIFA original.
