The Call
Week after week
For nine months
We heeded The Call.
We showed up.
We listened.
We spoke.
We wrote.
We read.
We shared.
We inspired each other.
We shared leading.
We shared following.
We shared listening and speaking, reading and writing.
We laughed and cried.
We celebrated and grieved.
Sometimes we got confused, or maybe we confused each other?
Or maybe we were playing or sometimes we were trying “too hard”.
Sometimes the jackal voices were howling panicked.
Sometimes we heard the sweet simple sound of giraffes being together.
We allowed, accepted, and acknowledged..
We expanded our possibilities and encouraged each other.
We held each other dearly with love and tender soft care.


Nine months.
We could have had a baby by now, we said.
Shocked, we realized we had. More like
In Its Way, The Call birthed us, and, yes,
The Call was born, March 8, 2020.
It had been holding us; now we are holding It.
The Call Beloved. The Beloved Call.
Come Beloved!
Come join us as we widen and deepen our circle ….

                                                                      NVC Drop-In Calls             
                                 Practicing the Three Modes of Nonviolent Communication 
                  Convened by Mair Alight       5 days per week  Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri , Sat 8-9am PT
The three modes we practice are:
1- Self Connection (Checking in with yourelf; being with what is going on in you)
2- Self Expression (Saying what is true for you that you want the others on the call to hear: YOUR experience)
3-Listening to Others ("Withing"
NOTE: Those who are familiar with the Twelve Steps model of Alcoholics Anonymous and the many programs that have been born from that model will recognize the concept of "No Crosstalk". This means not  "talking across the table" to one other person, thereby creating a dialog between two people which does not include everyone in the circle. The other practice we have adopted is not commenting on another person's share as their share, neither  mentioning them by name nor commenting on the content of their share. 
The intnet of theese two practices is to support community inclusion, belonging, safety, care, consideration,respect and trust. To read more about these practices, you could look HERE.
