Fundamentals of Authentic Relating (AR) is for people who want to bring more awareness, honesty, and connection into their relationships.

In April we are exploring ‘Curiosity and Assumptions’

As human beings we are assumption making machines.

Whilst assumptions help us make sense of a complex world whilst preserving our time and energy, when left unchecked they can get in the way of relationships as our minds tend to jump to conclusions, fill in the blanks, and assume we know what someone means.

This workshop is an invitation to discover what becomes possible when we stop relating to our story of someone and start relating to the actual person in front of us by using one of the most powerful relational tools we have, our own curiosity. When we use curiosity well, conversations become richer, misunderstandings dissolve, and connections become easier and more alive.

Through playful, insightful and connecting exercises, we will experiment with how it feels to replace “I know” by “I wonder” and:
- Bring more awareness to how much we assume and what it feels like when people assume things about ourselves
- Learn how to notice our assumptions and check them out skillfully
- Curiosity as the antidote
- Be interested to make conversations more interesting
- Build our curiosity muscle
- Find the topics that are of interest to everyone involved
- Learn to ask questions that invite depth

The workshop is mostly experiential and we aim to foster a sense of connection, insight, and fun in/between participants. Expect a mix of:
• Structured activities in pairs or small groups (55%)
• Facilitated reflection time (30%)
• Teachings (15%)

After the workshop, you will receive session notes (summary of teachings, reflection prompts, and suggestions for integrating AR into daily life etc).
