Abstract
This was a creative and educational project exploring how a peak experience and open mind can serve as access points for connecting individuals with their inner direction, a force within each of us holding the capacity to navigate challenging situations,and find purpose amid the zig-zags and bumps of our life journeys. The research was based on the delivery of an in-person pilot workshop with a group of 11 young women (aged 11-14), the facilitation of a training in an organizational context, as well as my personal journey of feeling connected and disconnected from my inner direction. Simply, I discovered that the moments which touch us most deeply hold a state of being, and an essential energy with the capacity to connect us with our emerging potential and enhance our overall state of being. Suggestions for cultivating such moments are included.
