The Topic

In this webinar, Mishel McMahon will lead an exploration of the Emergent Self.

Our current thoughts are filled with binaries and hierarchies, black and white, manager and worker, Western and Indigenous, cognitive and intuition, nature and human. Developed through multiple wounds to the human consciousness.  Who is self when we let go of the old, belong and heal, what are our thoughts, who is the emergent self?

The Agenda

In the first half of the webinar, Mishel will make her presentation and facilitate initial responses.

In the second half, we'll move into a reflection-application session:

- 'Composting': experienced peers work the material in small groups to sprout new ideas;

- 'Weaving': attendees gather to collectively reflect and question, weaving our experiences together;

- Discuss how we will apply learnings to our personal practice and living in a plenary.
