We did not all know each other so we took time to build trust.<\/p>\n<p>We allowed space to connect head, heart and hand, we shared stories, our emotional drivers and histories, our frustrations and <strong>our hopes for the future<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>We created a <strong>3D sculpture of our current reality<\/strong> and from there we collectively sculpted a tangible picture of a more <strong>sustainable future<\/strong>. What we took away was a need to move towards bringing people physically closer, to connect people first as humans and to discover deeply what connects us as opposed to what divides us. To create a safe space where judgements are suspended, and by <strong>bringing people<\/strong> and <strong>nature closer together<\/strong>, levelling the field of opportunity to influence the energy and change.<\/p>\n<p>We got into the shapes, movements and responses from the perspectives of those who can <strong>co-create this future<\/strong>; the earth, those disconnected,the voiceless, activists, business leaders, change makers, funders, young people and policy makers, as we embodied them in the 4D mapping session.<\/p>\n<p>We <strong>observed and listened<\/strong> to the reality of the divides, and their <strong>stories<\/strong>. We went out on the streets of London during protest marches, had conversations with victims, business owners, migrants, consultants, changemakers and community workers. We deepened our awareness and <strong>challenged our own assumptions<\/strong>. With this <strong>greater awareness<\/strong> that came from immersing ourselves in this field of reality and possibility, the ideas wrote themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Through iteration we were drawn to get started, drawn to the image of fire that energises us from the start. We now invite people across society to join us, in <strong>co-operative fire circles<\/strong>. An honest, calm and dynamic experience in nature where we commit as a group to defining and coming together on an action that contributes <strong>to a more sustainable future<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>As the fire circles grow, new facilitators will be trained enabling the process to be seeded through wider communities.<strong> Stories will be collected and shared to demonstrate the impact and outcomes of this highly human, deep, restorative and transformative process. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pulse\/create-seven-story-change-laura-iuliana-petrache\/\">https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/pulse\/create-seven-story-change-laura-iuliana-petrache\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Co-operative Fire Circles.
