A few voices from the very first Intimacy circle.
"My focus on being present with Kimberly was amazing. It was so much better than normal."
"We both have really active minds and we often cut each other off. We don't even know it half the time. That conversation didn't have that. We had the patience to be open and wait for a gap. Somehow our words just formulated perfectly without judgment, and we weren't afraid of how the other person was going to react to them."
"It created an environment of safety. It just felt like you were on the same island alone."
Jeffrey
"The ease of keeping eye contact with Jeff was incredible. It was like we were laser set on each other."
"Somehow we were just speaking the same language. It flowed so easily."
"How fulfilled my heart felt was incredible. And I still feel that. Through all these modalities we've been working on, I knew this in my mind. This one made me feel connected to my heart."
Kimberly
"It was like I understood him better, even though it was potentially the exact same words we've talked about in the past."
"What did I see in myself? My ability to be more open and free. To be more authentic."
"I'd never really fully heard him validate my experience before. And just hearing him validate that was really meaningful to me."
Cindy
What stays with them now that they are back in ordinary life.
"The doors we kicked down don't grow back or close back up the day after."
"I feel like we could replicate that on our own, without the medication, and still have an impact and build off of it. I don't think those doors are going to close anymore for me going forward."
J.H.
"Respecting our own individuality and our different ways of dealing with what's happening. It's a perfectly integrated symmetry of the two."
K.P.
"I want to bring back an increased commitment to showing up with tenderness and compassion. Choosing tenderness over judgment. I want to bring that motto into my life. The way it just came together, I'm kind of blown away. I couldn't be more delighted."
M.R.
"Our hearts are full. I couldn't have higher praise for all the intention and creativity that you guys put into this, all the vision. It was an honor to be part of the first group. I'm so grateful."
