Upgrading Human Thoughtware
Through transformational trainings, Possibility Management offers modern initiation work into adulthood.
Into adulthood?
Wait a minute! But I am adult!
After all, I’m over 18, I make my own decisions, and I arrange my life the way I like it.
Really?
Then there are some dangerous questions here for you:
- Do you know your strengths, skills, and talents? Do you know what your vocation is, and do you live it?
- For most of the time of your day are you doing what truly matters to you, and is the money you need for your life a side effect of it?
- Are you so inspired that your job nurtures you in all aspects while you are doing it, without expecting a paycheck, a reward, or recognition as “compensation” at the end of the month?
- Do you live your family life the way you want to live it?
- Do you live your love relationship the way you want to live it? And did you ever think about how you would like to live it?
- Are you secretly dreaming about winning the lottery, and that all your problems will be solved by it?
- Do you expect Uncle Sam or your health insurance to take care of you when you are doing badly?
What Does It Mean To Be Adult?
Being adult means to be in full command of your powers, for example to keep your center even if you talk with your boss, your mother-in-law, a policeman, or a spiritual teacher. To own your own voice and not to repeat other people’s voices or do what others say without examining it. To source resources rather than consuming resources, to make distinction so you don’t immediately believe what others tell you, to be present with your thoughts and feelings, to take responsibility for things like time, energy,
attention, stories, choices, purpose, tone of voice, vocabulary, the culture you live in, the present circumstances, and much more.
Growing up doesn’t start with learning a repeatable method by heart. It starts with “mental maps” you use to view the things in your life. Before you change something you first (sometimes painfully) have to become aware of the way you are creating the circumstances you are in so that the impulse for change
emerges from a natural necessity and not from wishful thinking. Did you ever try to change something in your life because you could well imagine a different result? Did you then imagine the new possible result but behave in the same way as before? Did anything change after that? The human mind is able to imagine a perfect result but the actual change doesn’t happen in the mind. In addition to the intellectual body, there are 3 other bodies involved that want to be collected, too.
Possibility Management works with 4 bodies
Physical Body
What does it help you to think up great concepts, projects, or gameworlds with your head if the thing that is hanging down from your neck is dysfunctional? During Possibility Labs you will get to nurture your physical body with organic food (and joyfully cooking it), refreshing gymnastics (inside and outside), activities in nature to reconnect with Mother Earth, archetypally dressing up at a formal dinner, and further homework that keeps bringing you from your mind into your physical body.
Intellectual Body
If everybody has the same disease the disease disappears from everybody’s awareness. The disease of modern culture is trying to live life in the mind. But no worries, even in Possibility Management we will give you sufficient thoughtmaps that your mind can grapple with. After all, your mind is a brilliant tool that you want to use from time to time.
Emotional Body
The feelings work in Possibility Management is NOT about getting rid of your feelings or feeling good after you had a good yell. In the trainings you will learn to reconnect to anger, sadness, fear, and joy step by step in the very pace in which your nervous system can hold and integrate it sustainably. Rather than following the cultural teaching and suppressing your feelings whenever they come up, once you have reconnected to your feelings you will be able to respond to unwanted situations faster and with more clarity, navigate delicate spaces with more precision, and endure more ecstasy in your day-to-day life.
Energetic Body
Each of the four bodies has its own language. What is the language of your energetic body? Your energetic body has a being which expresses itself with presence, will, vision, commitment, and the ability to connect and to be-with other beings. In the trainings you will get an immense amount of energetic food and energetic tools for protecting yourself, centering yourself, creating and navigating spaces, reconnecting to your intuition, seeing with your energetic eyes, and tapping archetypal energy sources to let the energy “go through you” so you don’t use up your own energy when faced with bigger challenges.
Since you can use any tool you learn anywhere for bright purposes and for shadow purposes,
the Bright and Shadow Work are essential aspects in Possibility Management
and involve a number of initiatory processes.
Shadow Work
The Jewels Underneath your Beliefs and Wounds
Every part of your personal underworld that you don’t own, owns you. Gradually you will come to challenge your beliefs, one at a time, and heal your wounds, one at a time. You will get deep insights of how your sabotage programs and defense strategies work to keep you from doing what your heart and your soul are starving for. Your underworld will never go away, but by changing your relationship to your underworld you get to live a life that is determined by your conscious life purpose rather than by your unconscious survival patterns.
Bright Work
Learning to Tap Other Resources
Once you get out of a personal survival mode which may be related to money, love, food, success – you name it – you become interesting to forces of nature that want you to play a bigger and more interesting game. In Possibility Labs you will prepare yourself for tapping these forces of nature so they can provide you with their wisdom and energy to do what you came here to do in the first place: being inspired by life and contributing your unique gifts to the greater good.
These are some of the most important elements from Possibility Management,
