session review on circle time and yoga

 

 

I just knew that circle time, we all sit together and do acitivites together.

My idea was it would be more of sharing, respecting the fellow participants.

 

and all i thought was true but it has lot more to it.

 

the circle time is for getting everyone together, listen to each other, connect with self and others.

It helps in listening to everyone, without judging them. It relaxes you, it makes u comfortable,

it helps u respectr everyone's thoughts and feelings.

It also helps in regulating self.

 

The three rules in circle time, found them very useful for me to be relaxed.

Initially though I was very conscious while tearing the paper, but eventually I was comfortable and on my own once the exercise was over.

 

I liked the rule of not putting down anybody, I could open myself more.

One idea sparking many other ideas, was really very true. Every idea was making me think more on what was being said.

 

The circle time was disciplined but still it was fun.  We had freedom as well as some restrictions.

Restrictions made our discussion oprganised as only one person can talk at a time.

It also gave us freedom to express ourselves freely because of the rule that nobody would be judging.

We were very much connected with each other but still were connected to ourselves. We were talking only abt self which was also making my understanding abt other also clear.

It helped me listening to others.

 

And it made more concentrate when I was trying to feel , taste , see and hear what other person was saying. It made sure that I am all there.

 

I feel it can be very useful in case of conflicts as well as when u start some new activity.

It can also help in brainstorming sessions. Ideas would be flowing in all the directions.

 

I wish I can design it in such a way that it can be used in smaller group too effectively

 

I feel the talking object can be used with any no of people, to solve problems. It made me clear on how to listen to others.

 

as of now everything looks like would work very fine but actual experience of it with some other group would make it clear. I feel its important that I try to implement this on non TTT members and see how it works.

 

Yoga :

My understanding was in Yoga the most important thing was pranayam. Thats the first thing that u should be doing. I never knew meditation has so much depth. To me 10 mins of meditation was enough.

 

But there is lot to learn, the body mind connection.

Though I m not very clear on how they are connected, how our postures get improved automatically, but want to learn more n more abt it. Yoga has come as flash to me.

 

My understanding abt yoga has not deepen but it has made me curious to know it.

 

And it was amazing to see how yoga asanas or postures and breathing techniques can be doe by children that too in an interesting way.

 

Now I want to explore yoga more deeper.
