An individual process in a shared meeting

The meeting is shared, but each person's process is their own. Alexander specifically draws attention to this individuality and to reflection as part of your own learning. You do not have to find the same description as everyone else or turn personal experience into an account of everything for others.

Your question

What is happening specifically to me, even when we are listening to the same meeting?

  • For those comparing their experience with that of other participants
  • For those who want to distinguish personal experience from its description more precisely

Contents

What the conversation covers

  1. An individualized process
  2. Your own experience in a shared meeting
  3. Reflection and learning
  4. Knowledge, visual description, and the limits of explanation

This is a meditation session for you to experience yourself. The text does not replace the recording.

What makes it different

This is not a promise of personal work between the author and the purchaser. It concerns the differences in experience among participants in the original shared meeting.

After watching

Return to your own experience.

  1. What can I say about my own experience without comparing it with someone else's?
  2. What does reflection help me record?
  3. Which details do I feel should remain private?
These questions for personal reflection were prepared by the editors from the recording.

Before choosing

What to keep in mind

The recording does not include personal work with the facilitator or require you to publish your personal experience. Individual processes are described in the context of the original group.

Will I have the same process as the original group?

That is not promised. The recording preserves a historical group meeting; the description of what happened to its participants cannot automatically be applied to a new viewer.
