I just returned from a 24 hour retreat with a bunch of high flying corporate's.
My job was to get them to concentrate on a certain number of critical issues
in order to come away with a 12 month strategy that they all buy into and support.
After setting the ground rule: NO crackberries or other techo paraphanalia
the second task had to do with their presence.
Which meant they needed to BE with me - both mentally AND physically.
For them that meant having their eyes and ears open.
...Definitely not enough
90 minutes later we'd gone through 3 exercices that worked on their connection with their body,.
Their being in their body.
Feeling in their body.
Initally the silence was deafening, through discussion and feedback the learning witnessed was heartening.
Only once the awareness had been raised with regard to their body and the connection between their body and mind states were we able to achieve quantom mental presence.
The rest of the work was a piece of cake!
