NEW WAVE OF GROUPS FOUNDATION COURSE

To foster a new order of creative and engaged group participation

and

unitive co-leadership

"8 Elements that Move Any Group Toward Unity Consciousness"

5 Weekly 90-minute Zoom classes beginning May 2024

 

WHO IS THIS WORK FOR?

Anyone who engages with others, and any gathering of two or more

This includes family interactions, therapeutic groups, business meetings, social get-togethers, spiritual gatherings, educational programs, support groups, and intimate discussions with loved ones. Our classes have benefitted people in many professions and roles—those who long for soul-satisfying group experiences. 

The 8 Elements that Move Any Group Toward Unity Consciousness are also useful on an individual basis...for the group of many voices at work in your head! 

 

JOIN THE EVOLUTION OF GROUPS TOWARD UNITY
 

Groups are more than simply the sum of the talents and personalities of the participants, they are unique intelligences arising from mutual engagement and intentionality. With this awareness, we are able to operate as a more conscious, open-hearted, higher-intelligence collective with access to a new order of information, support, and healing at any moment.

Humanity's evolving sense of self has opened us to an expanded capacity for this awareness, one in which we are able to experience ourselves as an entire group being rather than simply as a component of a group. 

The 8 Elements that Move Any Group Toward Unity Consciousness class provides a roadmap for engaging in relationships or group activities from higher evolutionary states that foster deeper connection, greater ease, self-agency, and authenticity. From the coherence of these intentionally elevated frequencies, sense of purpose and creativity are enhanced. 

YOU WILL LEARN

. . . A series of 8 simple yet powerful attitudes and behaviors designed to elevate group consciousness to higher levels of unity. While each element of the 8 Elements individually opens new possibilities for thought and action, their combined activation creates an environment conducive to unimagined levels of group awareness, drawing participants closer to the heart and brilliance of unitive consciousness.

The 8 Elements serve as vehicles for transitioning consciousness from one state to another. Understanding one's starting point is essential for knowing where to go, so the course offers three perspectives—Traditional, Transitional, and New Wave group dynamics—to assess the quality of group interactions.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN AND HOW PARTICIPANTS SPEAK OF THE 8 ELEMENTS ENVIRONMENT IN THEIR LIVES

You will experience and learn. . .

a new type of partnership among all group members that increases a sense of unified awareness while simultaneously enhancing individual talent and self-agency 

“I experienced healing at the root of my being because of the conscious way the group connected to function together. I am freer to offer what arises at every moment in time, therefore experiencing a lighter sense of living and knowing who I am.”  

to engage in the conversation so it continually feels rich and enlivening

"I feel increasingly more aware of the importance of staying grounded and present to the moment. Authenticity and letting go of ego became much easier in my experience of this particular group. I find the 8 Elements to be very helpful, and actually quite important to keep uppermost in my mind." 

how to come to the completion of your group meetings feeling uplifted and satisfied

"The 8 Elements series brought a deeper understanding and body-felt awareness of unity consciousness and how to orient a group toward it. From that space of all possibility, many miracles happen. Pioneering work!”

 

how to follow your own natural rhythm and support others in following theirs

"My class arose from the larger intelligence of the group, not from me. I did not need to worry. I helped shape it from what felt right to me in the moment, but others also formed the class from what felt right to them and speaking from within their unique talent."

that everything you bring to your group is welcomed and appreciated​

“The New Wave groups invite the very deep and alive presence of my essence just the way it is.”

to trust your self-knowing and authenticity, and that you are bringing your best to the group, even if it doesn't feel like it

“I feel liberated, authentic, and mature, taking part in groups now and in life in general. I think that through integrating it for groups it will become a way to show up in life everywhere I go.”

“I feel and know my self-agency in a way I have never experienced. It is embodied now.”

the experience of completely belonging in any group

"Patricia and Anne have developed a model for working in groups that is safe, egalitarian and experiential.  As we practice meeting together I am astounded at the depth of healing that is unfolding for me. The facilitators hold our space with great love, patience and acceptance."

that everyone is included; no one is left out

"The work with the New Wave of Groups has been profoundly good for me. I joined the group with no particular expectations. I questioned whether I "fit" in this group because I hadn't done the kind of work the others had done. What I discovered, repeatedly, was a group of kind, open, and generous people who were willing to be together sharing their journey, both inward and outward."
