Deliberation

This is the second step in the Act of Will journey. You can join in at any time. I’ll will offer one tool per all the stages.
If you decide to join, you need to start from step 1 (Purpose) and give it time to land before this step. It would also be helpful to read the “Act of Will Process”. You can find all the material related to this journey by scrolling down some posts or you can find the posts under Tunnisteet / Labels: “Act of Will Process”.

Dream!

This is the practice for the stage deliberation:

Use all your psychological functions to deliberate what this word/sentence of yours could physically look like (a form). And come up with many options. Go big, there is no place for now to evaluate what is possible or not. Take notes on one or more options/forms within all of the psychological functions.

Psychological functions

Thinking - What can you think that your word / sentence could physically look like (a form).

Desire / Impulse - What do you desire to do? Is your impulse different?

Sensations - What would your body like to do?

Feelings - What does your feelings tell you to do?

Imagination - What can you imagine that you could do (anything!)

Intuition - What does your intuition inform you

🌱
 

Take the next week/weeks time for this.

Deliberation is important to cultivate conscious reflection before action rather than reactively starting to do something.

The next step: CHOICE will be posted in a few weeks.

Enjoy and come up with many different options 💫

Kristiina



Key here is that you come up with physical forms of how this word / sentence of yours could look like. Without analysing, evaluation. You might also pay attention to some of the sub-personalities that might have their say in your deliberation. What I mean by it is that all of us have these parts in us and if you for example have a strong lets say judgemental part who is interfering with your deliberation (not being your ally) it could become an enemy in your journey. In these cases sub-personality work might be needed.
Starting with recognising that you have this kind of part in yourself (which has most likely worked well in past to keep you safe and/or to be seen and might still be working or over working) and coming into acceptance (with a help of a coach or therapist) of this part that further integration can start to happen.


On a group workshops or one one one sessions we would / could look deeper into psychological functions as some of them might be overpowering, some sleepy or inactive. The most dominant function is usually the one that has worked well in our family of origin (to be seen). However in Psychosynthesis we see that our Awareness & Will acts through all of these functions and can actually deliver more options/choices. So developing and harmonising these functions can make us freer in that sense.

We would also look into subs (sub-personalities), L.O.A.F.ings (limiting ideas, outdated beliefs, assumptions, fears) and into our family-, culture-, religion of origin. All of these may affect our deliberation and our choosing (the next stage in the Act of Will). And as we bring some of these into light; we have more choices visible / greater range of choice. We would also look at the different qualities of the Will. Could use different exercises such as how to carry prepersonal (past that affects now) in our daily lives, guided meditations, how to connect to inspiration and different tools how to deliberate..

Simple dis-identification / Self identification practice

 Simple dis-identification / Self identification practice:

I have a ` ´ and “I am more than my ` ´.

For example

I have a body and I am more than my body
I have emotions and I am more than my emotions
I have thoughts and I am more than my thoughts
I have roles and I am more than my roles



I am aware that I can observe
I can observe the bodily sensations
They come and go
I can observe my feelings
They also come and go
I can observe the thinking
That also changes
I can observe that I have different roles
… and I am more than any of that



I am aware
Rest there
🙏

We have to learn to live as Souls on Earth

Freud said, “I am interested only in the basement of the human being.” Psychosynthesis is interested in the whole building. — Roberto Assagioli, the founder of Psychosynthesis. All living has the drive to evolve and Psychosynthesis can be a conscious way to move forward with it.

“STAGES IN PSYCHOSYNTHESIS

Every person is an individual, and the psychosynthesis of each person follows a unique path. At the same time, the overall process of psychosynthesis can be divided into two stages: personal and transpersonal. In personal Psychosynthesis, the integration of the personality takes place around the personal self, and the individual attains a high level of functioning in terms of work, relationships, and general living that is meaningful and satisfactory to the individual.

In the transpersonal stage the person learns to achieve alignment with and to transmit the energies of the transpersonal Self, manifesting such qualities as responsibility, the spirit of cooperation, global perspective, love and purpose, and having access to inner guidance and wisdom.

Often the two stages overlap: there can be a considerable amount of transpersonal activity long before the stage of personal integration is complete.

As this process goes on, we gain the freedom of choice, the power of decision over our actions, and the ability to regulate and direct many of the personality functions. This entails developing the personal will—the will of the personal self. Through this development we free ourselves from helpless or preprogrammed reaction to inner impulses and external situations and expectations. We become truly “centered” and gradually become able to follow our own path, guided by our inner knowing, or true Self.

As we reach toward the transpersonal Self, we can liberate and encourage the synthesizing energies that organize and integrate the personality. We can make ever increasing contact with the Will of our transpersonal Self, which provides clearer and clearer meaning and purpose in our personal lives and our social tasks. We become able to function in the world more serenely and effectively, in a spirit of cooperation and good will.”

Purpose - Stage one on the Act of Will Process

Join me on Act of Will Journey (Psychosynthesis coaching) with 6 stages.

If you like to read more about this journey. You can go and read the post “Act of Will Process”.
You can scroll down some post to find it or you can find the posts under Tunnisteet / Labels: “Act of Will Process”.

Purpose, this is the step one. This is the seed we will plant to take us through all the stages.
In this step we will select an internal experience or a quality we would like to invite more into our life.

🌱 This is the practice for the stage of Purpose:

Imagine yourself waking into a completely full day of freedom to do whatever you like.

You might wake up in your bed or somewhere else.

What is it that you would like to do this day, to experience?

Take you time to imagine.

Note; for all it is not easy to visualise and imagine, but then you might like to think, feel or write down what you would like to do on your day off.

Fully immerse in this opportunity to do whatever.

Take your time

And when you are ready, see what is the internal experience or a quality you are after. Pick one to make this 6 stage process easier for you to actually take it through. Write the word or a sentence down for yourself + other insights / reflections if you wish. 🌱

If you need help with what could be a quality, you can see the post “Purpose Calling”. You can scroll down some post to find it or you can find the posts under Tunnisteet / Labels: “Act of Will Process”.

For the coming days and weeks before the next step; be aware of this word or a sentence. You might like to place it somewhere visible that you at least once a day are reminded by it.

The next step: deliberation will be posted in a few weeks.


Enjoy 🌱
Kristiina



Key here is that this experience/quality starts to come into daily living (not just on your free days). But this will follow in the coming steps. Now it is time to plant it and water it by seeing it / remembering it.

As an example: If your free day activity was to skydive, the internal experience / quality could be about freedom or energy or courage..

And if you have any questions, please let me know.
On a group workshops or one one one session we could look deeper into drives, inspiration, motives, values, how you know you are connected to a purpose, personal notebook reflections, blockages, conscious motivations and will vs. wants and needs by personality traits, dis-identification / self identification to come into responsiveness rather than reactiveness.

Addition: if you find many qualities that resonate and have difficulty to choose, maybe you could consider if under one quality some other ones fits under or you choose a sentence (internal experience) which could represent these qualities for you. For example: “Deep connection to inner Self” that could represent for example peace, calm, presence, energy.. for you. In the next steps the purpose sentence may sift into one or fewer words, so in this journey it may envolve. And for the process I highly recommend for you to write the sentence or word/words down for you to see it daily, so you are reminded of it. This also helps the next step.

About me

 

Hi,
my name is Kristiina.
I was born in Finland and currently living in the Netherlands together with my husband and a baby girl, Dino dog + 6 chickens. We are located in the province of Zeeland, on the islands in the southeast. We also spent some periods in a year in Vaasa, Finland too.
I’ve been on a quest of “self study” for over 20 years. Beginning with yoga, meditation, body works and Psychosynthesis which all also came my work.

My work focus currently goes into Psychosynthesis where I have dived in for over a decade.
For me Psychosynthesis created awareness of what is really needed for embracing wholeness and what it is to be really living a fulfilled life of meaning. It has shown me ways to really come home and to live more and more from deep within. Some ways yoga and meditation also did, but psychosynthesis integrated it.

Beside the passion for the work I’m offering, I love spending time with family, love nature, being connected, simple living and pretty much anything that touches my soul (music, beauty, a smile..). Qualities that are meaningful for me at the moment are love, union, beauty.

What is Will?

In psychosynthesis will is described to be strong, skilful, good, loving, joyful, transpersonal, universal..

What does that actually mean?

It means that we have a driving force within us that is connected to a deep self/Self that is free to choose. It is a will that is aligned and works with awareness. It is a will that has many of these qualities (strong, skilful, good, loving, joyful, transpersonal).. if not all in action.. It is not only for example strong, if it is only one, it might be a part of you in action, a sub personality who likes to take a certain action. It most likely is connected to a want and not to a deeper need or meaning. This kind of will could run you down, others too.

Aligned will is pure, could have a quality of honesty too, inherently it is also good for the whole (not just you as a separate one).

True meaning and purpose helps to connect to the Will.

Join me for an Act of Will Process here or in Instagram. You can read the post “ the Act of Will Process” to know what will be ahead. You can scroll down one post to find it or you can find the posts under Tunnisteet / Labels: “Act of Will Process”.

About Psychosynthesis and Coaching individuals and groups

Psychosynthesis integrates and works with personality and transpersonality (call it spirituality, I myself like to use the word soul).



Psychosynthesis belongs to the third and fourth force in psychology (humanistic and transpersonal psychology) that looks not only past and now but the direction which is uniquely fulfilling for the individual. This is in connection to something deeper, like what people might experience also through yoga or meditation or other conscious methods/lifestyles or by simply living. It's about growth and expansion, integration, awareness, meanings, potential, discovery, taking responsibility for own self and at the same time that is beneficial in so many ways to the surroundings that we live in. 



Psychosynthesis coach works as a guide to help the individual to get in touch with their true voice that speaks the individual's meanings, callings, directions to take, with what needs to be looked at to function more fully, own values, purpose. True voice that is free of conditionings (family, culture, religion), free from limited and outdated beliefs.. looking fresh with potential and within reality.
Coach can be a guide for meaning, for fuller life, helping to shine light on challenges and blocks, guiding for integrated functional presence and guides for next steps to take, guiding for presence and expanded consciousness and helping to ignite the good kind of fire for any actions to take.



Tools used in a session vary according to client or group, however they are in a roam of psychological functions; thinking, connecting to sensing, connecting to feelings, imaginations, desires and impulses + intuition. Example tools in a group can be within guided meditations, guided imaginary, working with one client same but also and maybe even mainly (depending on client) round talking and asking meaningful questions to bring insights.

If you would like to join for a free psychosynthesis journey here or in Instagram, you are right on time (May-July 2024), scroll down to the next post. You can also join later. You can find the posts here under Tunnisteet / Labels: “Act of Will Process”.

Act of Will Process

Join me for an Act of Will Process here in my page or in Instagram

Act of Will is one Psychosynthesis process (coaching) that contains 6 stages:

Purpose

Deliberation

Choice

Affirmation

Plan

Direction of the Execution/Manifestation

✨

What I will offer here and in in instagram is one tool for each stage.

On one on one sessions we go much deeper with different tools and into your process that is uniquely yours. Workshops for groups will be offered later.

Tools vary from reflection talks, guided imaginary, guided practices, home journaling practices..


If you are interested in one on one sessions or group workshop sessions, please let me know.

This process can be a good way to get a bit in touch with psychosynthesis, although it will most likely only scratch the surface.

These six stages will be offered in about every 2 weeks (1 stage), so all six stages within May-July.

If you already got excited, you can start with the Purpose Calling post (scroll down to the next post), however another Purpose stage post will be posted next week (latest).

So, how this works? You will dive into a process which might bring you more in touch with yourself and a life that calls you (to live in “harmony” and with inspiration, one with life). In these steps you might learn obstacles and opportunities and you will create a plan that is connected to your purpose. This can be a very simple process or a deep one. Just one shift somewhere can be a major one in your whole life..

Wishing you an insightful journey with the steps of The Act of Will (by R. Assagioli, the founder of Psychosynthesis).

Psychosynthesis belongs to 3rd and 4th force in Psychology that integrates personality work and transpersonality (call it “spirituality”). So it involves the whole psyche, transpersonality and the presence, past and future.
