What exactly is a group process?
Group process is a form of work based on the process psychology of Arnold Mindell. It is a method that helps groups, small and large, to safely explore tensions, conflicts or various social topics that we perceive, although we often do not talk about them openly.
Every group, family, community or society has its visible voices (what we talk about) and also hidden, marginalized voices (what we are afraid to talk about, what we suppress or what we find unpleasant). It is these unexpressed voices that can create tension, conflict or the feeling that "something is not right".
The group process is a safe space where all these voices can emerge, be heard and projected into dialogue and bring us to an understanding.
How does the group process take place?
The group will meet in a circle, where the facilitators will create a safe space: respect, equality of voices, openness...
Participants will offer topics that are currently troubling them, resonate in society or are present in the room.
They can be personal (e.g. burnout, fears, interpersonal conflicts) or social (e.g. war, feminism, economic uncertainty, climate anxiety).
Together we will choose one topic that resonates most strongly in the group. The person whose topic was chosen stands in the space for one role, names it and the others can react to it.
The facilitators help the process to reveal different points of view, respectively the "roles" that this topic contains.
Everyone can express the voice they feel, even if it is not their personal opinion, but it is just a perspective that "wants to be heard".
We work with body signals, emotions, polarities, power, marginalized roles and dynamics that occur in the group. they discover.
The process naturally passes through different phases - tension, clarification and integration, which gives room for new points of view, relaxation or understanding.
Everything happens voluntarily, safely and without the need for personal sharing, if one does not want it. Anyone can be a part of the process even just by silently watching.
What topics do we work with? (Examples)
- own or social conflicts
- stress and pressure of the present time
- topic of relationships, boundaries and communication
- gender stereotypes and power imbalance between the sexes
- tension between different beliefs
- social topics that "burn" us, such as wars, economy, work, migration...
- climate anxiety and fear of the future
- problems that people experience at home, at work or in their community
