โ€‹Join Pranab and Cissy as we reimagine knowledge work as an emotional act. Think IFS parts/somatic work ๐Ÿค job work

โ€‹We often view emotions as a distraction, brute forcing our way to impact, but what if tapping into emotions is the gateway to flow & unlocking new dimensions of capacity?

โ€‹We mistake knowledge work for being one with our mind, ignoring all the wisdom that our bodies have to offer us in understanding how we relate to work. Beneath all the emotion we've suppressed is creative energy, access to our truest desires, and new levels of flow.

โ€‹Introducing: emotional embracement ๐Ÿฅ

  1. โ€‹Cultivate awareness ๐Ÿง˜

    • โ€‹Bring awareness to your body and emotional state

  2. โ€‹Journal interstitially โœ๏ธ

    • โ€‹Take notes on resistance and insights that arise

  3. โ€‹Process emotions ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

    • โ€‹Address and process emotions using your existing introspection practices (e.g., meditation, breathwork, Internal Family Systems (IFS) parts work)

  4. โ€‹Update approach ๐Ÿ”

    • โ€‹Integrate learnings from Steps 1-3 into your work routine

โ€‹Bring work you've been feeling especially stuck with! Is there an email you've been delaying writing? A project that gives you a headache? All your bajillion small tasks with context switching you want to power through?

This session will be especially helpful for those kinds of work and likely not as good for single-context, easy-to-do deep work.

โ€‹Schedule:
In the first ~30 minutes, we'll be introducing the approach and do a short guided meditation to cultivate a sense of grounding, spaciousness, and kindness.

We'll then begin a few pomodoros that set the container, doing check ins between them. We'll wrap up a bit before 5 to have time for questions.

โ€‹This will be one of our first in-person sessions! Join us :)
