CONTEXT

IE is not just a University, it is a worldwide referent of training the leaders of the future. In essence, leaders are not solely knowledge about the environment they are part of, they also need to interact with people as much as living with themselves.

Personal fulfillment then is intrinsically related to leadership, as though a CEO of a company not performing satisfactorily or not finding the meaning of life because of social anxiety or existential crisis.

Matter-fact, developing processes that pay attention to deeper ways of understanding human condition has become unavoidable if we were to keep offering resources to guarantee guidance throughout the entire student experience.

PROPOSAL

Six-sessions lab to challenge what makes you not progressing, being this stress about facing exams, homesickness or a recent loss.


Six face-to-face sessions structured in dynamic and interactive workshops of two hours where a professional in the science of the mind and mental states will guide you through becoming your own master.

Interactive, thought-provoking, private and extremely effective, you will be part of a small group that aims not only reinforcing your individual abilities but your virtues when working in groups too.

WHAT FOR?

Whether we aim achieving a consistent change that lasts, it ought to align all levels in the individuals so that they attain homeostasis -this is being in balance, achieving coherence with ourselves- matter-fact leaving inner struggles behind.
Distress caused by loss, affliction, disappointment, etc. blocks the individual while prevents us from moving forward freely. Facing distress is something we can all benefit from.

Grieving process is an interactive approach. First, we have to acknowledge the conflict we want to get rid of -not necessarily negative-. Then, using our body, we allow ourselves to express the emotions attached to that conflict.


By resolving grief, we are releasing blockages from the past, placing ourselves in the present hence being able to look forward to the future. We close in order to open. We welcome new experiences out of personal choice and enjoyment.

HOW?

This will be structured in few mini workshop/lab that will go through important pillars like belonging, purpose, storytelling and transcendence.

Session 1: BUILDING THE BUBBLE

The focus is on building a safe environment where students will be likely to express themselves without judgment, welcomed as they genuinely are and so able to connect with who they are. Getting to know one another and the group.

Session 2: AWARENESS
We will explore what prevent us from achieving what we aim for (being these next exams, becoming part of a community or homesickness), what tights us to the past, what makes us not progressing. A cognitive approach will be developed as an avenue to form bonds and understanding burdens.


Session 3: BE THE STORM

We would give students in an experiential and corporal way, different tools and resources to both manage and express emotions in a healthy way, to uncover circumstances that may have blocked them recently.

Session 4: PRIMAL DANCE, CREATIVITY IN MOTION 

Through movement and music, we will explore our capabilities, releasing blockages and focusing on our creative intelligence as a way of connecting to our inner selves and the world.
