Three Choices

Instructions for the leader

At the start of your event, gather participants in a large standing circle, holding hands or with hands on each other’s backs. Play the song "Opening" by Essi Jane. Invite participants to close their eyes and become aware of their feelings. Ask the first question: “Do you want to take this experience for granted, or cherish every connection here?” Pause for 20-30 seconds of silent reflection. Ask the second question: “Do you want to be led by your social autopilot, or by your courageous connector?” Pause again for reflection. Ask the third question: “Do you want to bring the people around you energy or lethargy?” Pause for a final reflection. Pause, and invite participants to set a personal intention aloud or silently. Wrap up by stating "The choice is yours. You're in charge of your experience here."
