The Octagon Method for Embodied Awareness©
balance and harmony
The body reveals.
The mind interprets.
The Career Life area has a symbiotic relationship with the other eight life areas. It represents the reciprocal flow between the life areas and is recognized through the embodiment of living actions. The life area mirrors the flow of attainment achieved through direction, choices, connection, support and contribution. The qualities are experienced through presentation, interaction and contribution and reflected through responses and feedback in relationships and community.
This life area transitions through the life cycle from beginning to end and beyond through influences. The embodied awareness learning programs can be explored personally, or integrated into a home, office, organization or institution and beyond. Therefore, the following example at the personal level is a micro experience of a macro one in the areas of work and community placements.
The life cycle of career begins in childhood. extends through careers and into retirement.
An example could be the birth placement (1st, 2nd, or 3rd child), young adolescent and becoming a placeholder in friendship group, an adult career and into retirement activities. Each of these placements become how one experiences themselves in these placements and how one is recognized without the group in these placements.
The Inside Awareness learning method introduces learning patterns to awaken abilities and increase alertness by connecting to the basic nature being demonstrated through appearance, performance and action.
