What is Connecting Space?
Connecting Space offers creative therapy, training, support and a place to connect. It is a space designed to activate greater depth connections. By being part of this creative connecting space there is the potential to meet others without the personal baggage that so hampers ordinary relationships. We encourage active self-knowledge rather than head knowledge alone, with the hope that you will find new and better ways of relating.
What is Creative Space?

EXPERIENTIAL NETWORKING MEETINGS
Anger being in touch with intense emotions
Anger is an emotion few of us are comfortable with, yet is frequently met in work and domestic situations. The 3 hour workshop is a time where members can creatively participate in exploring how anger is interpreted and how it can be appreciated and processed naturally.
What a difference a year makes .
Rosa physically fully grown at a year old, familiar with her surroundings ,intuitive , playful and curious; yet still dependent on us for her survival.
Her strategies for life still being formulated and considered as she monitors her surroundings and decides on her best survival strategy.
Play is a big part of her day , learning how to relate to others , to know when to submit when to re-treat and when to stand up to others . Responding to commands that she has realised mean a treat is forthcoming or that incites her to stop what she is doing as to continue may have a consequence that is less than pleasing .
I am reminded of TA ( Transactional Analysis) PAC model and the child ego state :
Our Child ego state can be compliant and well-mannered or
rebellious and badly behaved. In TA terms both of these would be
classed as “Adapted Child” (AC) as in both situations we are adapting
to the environment around us, either positively or negatively. The
other way the Child ego state functions in is called “Free
Child”(FC). The Free Child likes to run barefoot on a sun drenched
beach, play and laugh with those nearby, cry when sad, shout when
angry. The free Child is not restricted by what others think.
There are entire books written about ego states, various models and
theories about how they work or even if they exist at all so if it is a
subject you are interested in . TA today by Stuart and Joines would be a good place to start.
