Fourth meeting – Water Element

Central theme:

The strength of vulnerability

 

This is the last meeting of the sequence. Now we know the place and our canine family well. We already know each other, humans and dogs: we trust.

Let’s open up again, like on the first date, but now “let’s let each other see”. Receiving strength through acceptance and self-knowledge, which brings peace, the peace necessary to cope with the multiple challenges that life brings to us.

Example of activity:

 

Look into the eyes of one of the dogs, and then say quietly in his ear something that weakens you. Then hug the doggie and feel his love in addition to that weakness you confessed to him. Feel the dog’s unconditional love. Form the circle for each one to share how you felt about it.

Now, in pairs, look into the eyes of another participant – hold the gaze, and really let yourself look deeply. In all the pairs one participant says a word that shows vulnerability: for example “forgiveness”. The other’s answer: “I accept”. He changes roles and makes it similar, for example: “I’m sorry”, Answer from the other “now I understand”. Give and take this information. To welcome and to be welcomed. Hug the partner of the duo.

Closing with a group hug.
