About the Solutions

Overview

There are methods and holistic approaches that invite the unknown. They can help to
open the potential that is hidden in the subconscious or is already conscious but has
not been heard yet. It can be useful to create environments that make it easy to get
surprised by yourself others. For example Dyades (structured twin talks), Treshhold
walks (in the mirror of the nature), Flirts (process work), Contemplation, Intuitive
Painting, Flow writing, Authentic Movement.
Diving into this unknown,sometimes scary terrain widens our horizon and gives us
access to new and deeper knowledge. These moments and insights are often opened
through channels and processes other than rational thinking.

The challenge

People tend to focus on issues with rational thinking and it is difficult to come up with
something new or to think outside the box. In this way they might stay in a vicious
circle, thinking through their issue again and again not manifesting any new ideas or
making any progress. A lot of decisions not only need careful consideration but also
need to include emotions and aspiration that may be partly still subconscious.

“The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind
of fear is fear of the unknown.” H. P. Lovecraft
