Dear WOSonOSers, I'm taking a moment to imagine all of you arriving in St. Petersburg from around the globe, wishing I could join you this evening for the welcome dinner and sit in the circle with you tomorrow as Suzanne opens the space. Thanks for the loving care that the global planning team has offered to keep the heart of WOSonOS beating with joy.
I'll be traveling to a family wedding tomorrow and then on to an adventure in the Grand Canyon, rafting down the Colorado River. Enjoy yourselves and let us know whatever happens.

I appreciate very much to have a video of Harrison walking the circle. In fact, I think that is a very good learning tool for facilitators: watching other colleagues opening the space. Do you know about other videos of colleagues opening space (the complete or parcial stuff)? Big hug from rainy, pouring, lovely Bilbao, in these days of celebration for the worldvwide OS community, @Eleder_BuM www.burumapak.blogspot.com (Basque) www.in-fluyendo.blogspot.com (Sp.) www.flowandshow.blogspot.com (En) http://www.bilbohiria.com/gaika/berbaz (radio interviews) 2013/5/16 Christy Lee-Engel <cdl...@gmail.com> Dear Open Spaceniks, On the eve of the lush and delightful-sounding Florida WOsonOs, below is the link to a video I took on my phone of Harrison walking the opening circle of the last day of a different lively gathering, which was called "Connecting for Community" and took place in Cincinnati a few weeks ago. One of the ways in which that gathering was very lively was that the space opened itself! The day before Harrison was scheduled to do it, participants lovingly yet vigorously inverted the offered design of the gathering, and insisted on getting into conversations around what we cared to talk about and take action on. The first two days of the three day gathering were scheduled to be a combination of inspiring short talks by (truly) brilliant and beloved elders, mixed with small group conversations provoked by what we'd just heard. But for many, it wasn't enough of getting to find out who else was in the room, and too much on the side of being talked to by elder men. So, like grass pushing up through the sidewalk, a lot of life spoke up when the whole group convened at the end of the second morning! Although by that afternoon, we'd gone back into something like the beginning format. Anyway, I went to the gathering in part because I knew that Harrison was coming to facilitate the day of Open Space. When he started walking around the circle at the appointed time, early on the third morning, it occurred to me to use the video recorder on my new phone (which I don't really know how to use, as you'll see if you watch the video) - I experienced it as sort of a "master class," getting to hear the spiel, and see the gestures and body language that I've read the words of many times, as Harrison not only facilitated our gathering, but basically taught everyone listening how to open space ourselves, "whenever and wherever." Here's the link: https://vimeo.com/65488850 Although it's rough, I think it's still fun to watch at least a moment or two of what it looks like to walk that opening circle with more than 25 years of it in your bones. It is also pretty great to see how people leaped up to write their sessions, as soon as he invited us to! (please note - I've found that the echo-y sound is best understood if you can listen through earphones ;-)) Sending warm wishes for a rich and deep and surprising time to everyone at the international WOSonOs, and to the rest of us, too! love from Seattle, Christy Christy Lee-Engel, ND, EAMP Director, Center for Spirituality, Science and Medicine BASTYR UNIVERSITY Acupuncture and Naturopathic Medicine practice: Core Chiropractic and Wellness 206.708.7172 We're all just walking each other home - Ram Dass _______________________________________________ OSList mailing list To post send emails to OSList@lists.openspacetech.org To unsubscribe send an email to oslist-le...@lists.openspacetech.org To subscribe or manage your subscription click below: http://lists.openspacetech.org/listinfo.cgi/oslist-openspacetech.org _______________________________________________ OSList mailing list To post send emails to OSList@lists.openspacetech.org To unsubscribe send an email to oslist-le...@lists.openspacetech.org To subscribe or manage your subscription click below: http://lists.openspacetech.org/listinfo.cgi/oslist-openspacetech.org
