Dear all,

it was lovely that we saw each other @bobeng @forest @shannon @chrys @pbarus

Among other topics, we shared perspectives of language & identity, beauty, teaching & learning, being & presencing, history, friction & water/flow and why we are here.

A thank you to everyone for sharing.

We see each other again on Friday, the 6th of June 2024 at 6 pm CET.

I wish you all a lovely time with loads of inspiration and beautiful moments.

With kindness,

Manuela

PS. Anyone from the channelmcgilchrist is welcome 😊

[Manuela van der Glas]

It was lovely creating a conversation with @Forest and @chrys about the way we attend and how it changes what we see, (fairy/,metaphysic’) handmade arts, beauty, being human/aware/conscious vs. machine/manipulation and our (limited) bandwidt of perception.

I enjoyed that exchange of perspective and complementing experience a lot.

Thank you for being there. 🙏🏻

I wish for you all that all goes well, inspired thoughts and actions will lead to good outcomes and look forward to continue our conversation on

Friday, 3rd of May 2024 at 6 pm CET.

With kindness,

Manuela

P.S. @bobeng I wish you a good month as well and look forward to seeing you next month again.

[Manuela van der Glas]

🙏🏻 Dear Jena, thank you very much for your support. With kindness, Manuela

[Manuela van der Glas]

@Andy @anthony-bremnergmail-com @bobeng @zaks @chrys

I try to respond to all of you in one go and hope it will work.

I just came back from up north and need to get an overview first. From what I could see though, there are two wishes in regard to when to meet:

Sunday at 10am EST / 4pm BST / 5 pm CET

Friday at 12:00 EST / 17:00 GMT/ 9:00 PST / 18:00 CET

I am going to check my agenda and will set up zoom links for both days/times so that anyone who is interested can meet and I will post the links here this Wednesday evening CET.

I wish you all a good day and look forward to meeting you all.

With kindness,

Manuela

Thank you for sharing this. For me it is difficult to listen to, and catch the sounds, make words and attach meaning to the words – because it is quickly spoken.

This reminds me of Iains’ last Q&A where one was inquiring about music.

It seems to me that our individual ears need to be tuned-in (trained) to perceive sounds and ‘make words/attach meaning’ to these sounds. In addition to that one’s perception also may differ due to one’s mother tongue that might have entirely different sounds, speeds and a carried meaning – as well as the levels of stress or allostatic load such a tens body (muscles / eardrums) carries and therefore is less able to hear.

In the past days I came across Alexandre Tannous whoms work regarding sound resonates with me: https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/episode/128-alexandre-tannous

What thoughts come up from your side?

Dear Christina, thank you for being in the conversation and sharing your perspectives. One that stuck with me was: “…when I .. I don’t even notice the beautiful bay when I go out the door…” –

this happens in my body when it is ‘tense/pressured/stressed’ – it goes ‘tunnel view’ automatically (auto pilot) to help me reaching my goal most economically (energy wise) thereby ‘blocking out environment’.

I am very much looking for to our next conversation.

With kindness,

Manuela

Dear all

I hope this finds you all well and in good spirits.

This post is to let you know that I had to change my zoom login just now in order to be able to host our ‘First Friday of the month’ [ because our old host provider didn’t continue with its services and therefore my old login email is no more receiving e-mails with a log in code as verification.]

This is why our zoom link for our monthly Friday’s needed to change as well.

To make a long story short – here is the new zoom link:

https://us05web.zoom.us/j/81776254730?pwd=6D0ET12JZja2pHG6xJlHuMBRbBgbv3.1

‘Technology willing’ – we will meet today at 6 pm CET [Amsterdam time].

I hope you can make it and I am looking forward to to seeing you there.

With kindness,

Manuela

[Manuela van der Glas]

Lovely that you were there Christina. I look forward to seeing you again then!

[Manuela van der Glas]

I look forward to seeing you agian Bob.

[Manuela van der Glas]

Wonderful, Peter!

[Manuela van der Glas]

Dear Cristina, thank you for reaching out. There was an entry in the log informing that ‘CFM’ tried to join at 18:59 CET/Amsterdam. However the meeting started at 18:00 CET and finished before 18:50. With kindness, Manuela

[Manuela van der Glas]

G’day Anthony, thank you for letting us know. Would you like to share the days/times that suit you? (this way we can coordinate accordingly). With kindness, Manuela

[Manuela van der Glas]

Thank you Andrew, which day/time would work better for the EST time zone? I am happy to organise a get together.
