Gurjit Singh / Circle of Trust

Since being on the project and working on the process of change I think there is a real sense of development and trust forming within the group and a new way of thinking. The group seems to have this real connection and bond that I have not felt in other groups or in other settings.  There is a complete aura of honesty with one self and it feels right because of the respect and compassion that exists.  This I think has happened because we are removed from our work, our family, our home, our place and our usual thoughts and our usual way of life.   

  For me, the group dynamic is interesting because a lot of what is going on is connected to the people that are going through this process together.  Over the last few days I have heard and learnt so many things that I would never have picked up on had I not been on the Natural change project.  I personally feel different, but I don’t know why or how?  What I do know is that it feels like a greater sense of connection and empowerment to do something about how I am feeling and how we are feeling as a group. 

 As a group we have all spoke quite honestly and shared our secrets that may cause us pain or make us unhappy, sad, stressed and sick.  However,  what is important is that we have all felt that we can be quite honest and true to ourselves and share with one another our story and by doing so we are dealing with our issues no matter how big or small.   This process itself is helping us deal our sadness and pain. This process is not to be underestimated as it is not an easy one or one that is being forced or one that is false.  This process is actually just a really simple one.  The process of being able to heal yourself and others involves simple things like, listening, giving, sharing and taking time to stop and appreciate everything around you.  It involves a process of being comfortable with the basics and immersing yourself in the simple but yet complex elements of Planet Earth.

 Where does this need for action come from?

 And what is the action going to be?
