We strive to hold radical self-responsibility, using tools and practices to resource
ourselves and our nervous systems, for the benefit of ourselves and the group.
We learn to center the most vulnerable self, and go at a pace that is safe and
supportive for that part, our whole selves, and each other.
We agree to treat each other respectfully and with care, knowing that in doing so we
are creating a collective field of safety and trust. We resist the temptation to spiritually
bypass, while striving to stay brave, regulated and in equal support of our and other
participants' arising experience.
We lean into paradox, liminality and center our subjective experiences as both
“real” and valid–taking them seriously and holding them lightly. We do the same for
others’ subjective experiences.
Safety is created through our collective respect and integrity, which opens up the
opportunity to explore nuances that may edge into areas outside of our comfort zones.
We understand that the trust within the group is developed over time. We agree not to
share each other’s stories outside of the group.

Communication Guidelines - Listening & Speaking for Co-Regulation
Don't FRACK (This acronym came from Jayson Gaddis, and was then modified by my
teacher Lama Kimberley Lafferty.)
● Don't Fix
● Don't Rescue
● Don't give Advice
● (Do) ask for Consent
● Don't Kill others experience (gaslight/”that didn’t happen/that’s not real”)
A general guideline here is to speak from a first person “I” space, as in:
“This has been my experience” or “I have been able to make sense of things in this
way...”.
To receive wisdom from the collective, overtly ask for advice or opinions.
Disrespectful &/or boundary-crossing behavior will be addressed privately with the
member. If repair/resolution can’t be found, the member will be asked to leave the
group. For any issues or clarifications please email Robin directly at
