The Octagon Method for Embodied Awareness©

balance and harmony

The body reveals.

The mind interprets.

Awareness connects the two.

This region of the life area grid focuses on manifestation in the educational programs at Inside Awareness and Origins, which has the perspective of intention. The future area reflects children, travel, fun, and adventure. Each of these three experiences reflects a quality of playfulness that can enhance goal setting and take the effort out of it.

Inside awareness educational programs all have a core focus on intention. Motivation for action begins with intention, whether it is conscious or unconscious. The goal-setting programs are integrative and value-based. The thoughtfulness of turning dreams into values supports increasing inner definitions of values that can become a part of processing in communication. Socialized cultural conditioning has created a language of debate and disconnection without any thought to values in the past. Having ease with goal setting begins by integrating values in personal goal setting. Some goal programs follow the patterns in nature, such as the seasonal changes and the moon cycles in the calendar year. Others integrate intention with action in one’s personal space to shift behaviour patterns. An intentional goal-setting program for the office focuses on values concerning interactions in the work community through using crystal qualities to introduce values and expand mindfulness.

An origins program at Inside Awareness is the Culture of Values integration method. Value goals are the specific integration of universal values for children to bring early value awareness and development. It includes thoughtful feelings that could be inspired by unmet and met value needs. An adult version of the program has also been developed. These two educational goal-setting programs and agendas were inspired by a four-year project that focused on each person’s unique interpretation and inner definition of one value. A different value would be focused on every week in a talking circle and integrated into dialogue.

The goal programs are designed for self-actualization to improve health and wellness, increase connection and accountability in relationships and support shifting old conditioning in our culture.
