Dear all - Jack's and Marc's comments make me think that our holding space for the group - for both the client and the participants - is the embodiment of trust. We breathe, we believe, we trust the people and the process, we are always there (in physical presence and or in Harrison's case at times in our dream state during our naps ;o) ). We are completely present.
I do not feel it is separate from or outside the group. I feel we are all very much interrelated. We are (in the Open Space event) all part of a vast living system (of systems, of systems, of systems...)...with one (or a duo or team) of us holding space, to be midwife to emergent life, to witness, if you will, the marvelous transformation we (the space-holders) know is happening at every moment - on levels from the cellular to the stellar to the realms we little tiny humans cannot even know. We breathe, we trust, we hold trust. We help others breathe....and trust...and trust themselves...
