Radical Tenderness: a guided process by Hannelie Venucia

Heidi writes

We are an international group of women who are committed to growth and development in ourselves and from there bring it out into the world. Participants come from Germany, Austria, Italy, USA and, Canada and also from South Africa. We gather regularly to talk about important topics, prevalently concerned with our interiors, but what is going on in the external world is also part of our considerations. We practice co-xcreative conversations and we guide each other into deep processes.

In this particular meeting we were led By Hannelie into a process called W”Radical Tenderness” – an antidote to the brutality which we are witnessing all around the world right now, partly caused by the pandemic and the overall-reactions of our government in order to contain it. We are separated from other, many of us cannot experience tenderness and affection in person. But we can develop tenderness in itself and towards ourselves.

During the process we are asked to consider statements and be aware which ones attract us most. At first sight one might think that there is little connection to what we believe tenderness would be. Our minds and hearts open up to new perspectives when we allow the words to sink in.

When watching the video you can go along with us and note which expression of tenderness is most valid for you. Below you also find the pdf, but allow yourself to be guided instead of just reading over the words. The result will be different when you first sink down in a different state of Consciousness.

This conversation took place on November 23rd, 2020
