Participant Feedback for Anchors and Swimmers

“I was really struck and surprised by the extent to which sensing in my body and noticing the feel of what someone was saying as they expressed their feelings along with their views allowed me to feel the good intention behind the content of what they were saying, even if their viewpoint was very different to my own. And how that opened my heart towards them, when sticking merely at the level of ideas and beliefs wouldl likely have left me feeling like we were in opposition.”

“Thank you. I really enjoyed being there. I always feel a little uncertain in completely new situations, but now I’ve seen how it works I would be very happy to be an anchor or a swimmer next time and I would very much like to participate again. As I said in the group, I felt like it really just scratched the surface of what might be possible and I am excited to explore more. I agree with what you said at the end, that it makes sense to go gently even if that feels slow. My guess is that if a relatively consistant group continued over time that there would be a natural deepening even in these short sessions. Though I can’t help feeling than even another half an hour would make quite a difference. I’d certainly be up for a 1.5 hour session.”

“It brought up a lot of questions for me around the differences between direct experience, felt sense, belief, opinion, assumption and judgement and how they might impact the ‘outcome’ of the process. I could certainly imagine that having more experience with Focusing (or some other modality that has the same effect) of seeing how your internal experience and viewpoint can change, sometimes even quite drastically, as inner experience is felt into, would be very helpful to holding things more lightly and being less identified with your own perspective. But I also completely see the value in including people with little or no Focusing experience and I would love to see how the process itself achieves (or not, but I think it would) those same things. It did strike me that keeping coming back to sensing in the body is important and extremely helpful though, whether or not someone is used to doing that and that for a less experienced group of people it may be necessary to include reminders to do this.”
“Anchors and Swimmers showed me how it is possible to slow down and self regulate within conflict, which guided me into greater awareness of the whole relational sphere. The practice is one of heart medicine, where I was able to connect to the reasoning behind a worldview that is, seemingly, the opposite to one that I currently hold. When I realized that both opposing worldviews were backed by the intention of a deep love for humanity, I felt hopeful in us, as a species, weeding through conflict and finding unity, together.”

 “As a process, it felt quite safe, which was really nice. As a said in person, I was impressed with the model/process of having an anchor do the reflection, rather than the “opposing” person. Even though the reflection isn’t coming from the person with whom there’s conflict, I think it nevertheless has a powerful regulating (feeling heard) effect, which in turn would contribute to resolving conflict. This is a model I’d like to explore for myself in the future. “
