T-Group & Sound Bath (Mandarin)

https://partiful.com/e/qDX8NWrAEV1cRQKIdgBR

📍 活动信息 时间:2025年6月8日(周日)9:30 AM – 12:30 PM

地点:Redwood City(具体地址将在报名通过后通知)
限额:8人 🌀

流程 9:30 Door Open
9:45-10:30 Intro 自我介绍游戏
10:30-12PM T-Group
12-12:30PM Sound Bath Integration & Closing

🔹 什么是 T-Group?
T-Group,全称 Training Group,是一种以“真实对话”为核心的小组交流方式,源自Stanford MBA 最火的课:“Feely Touchy” 的活动形式。
在 T-Group 中:
* 我们练习在当下觉察自己的感受与反应
* 学会真诚地表达、反馈、倾听与连接 * 通过人与人之间的互动,更深入地认识自己,也更理解他人
* 每位参与者平等参与,共同营造一个安全的沟通实验场(safe space)

在对话中,我们鼓励真诚、倾听和分享,带着开放与觉察去探索内在与关系。活动结束后,你可能会对自己、他人和沟通方式有全新的理解与感悟

🔹T-Group不是什么
* 不是相亲小组
* 不是职场networking小组
* 不是Group Therapy
* 不是建议分享
* 不是闲聊聚会
* 也不是一人输出,其他人接收的课堂

我们不分析、不争论,而是关注个人在互动中的真实体验与影响。

🔹 参加 T-Group,你可能会收获:
* 提升在亲密关系或职场中应对冲突的能力
* 增强对自己情绪、反应和行为模式的觉察力
* 更快地与他人建立信任与深层连接
* 获得来自他人的真实反馈,觉察自己在人际中的影响
* 练习真实地被看见,也真实地去看见他人
* 在一个安全、真实、有温度的空间中探索人与人之间的关系 每个人的收获都不尽相同。

T-Group结束后,有人提到很治愈,有人提到很受启发,有人提到很疑惑。收获的多少,取决于你的学习目标,你目前的状态,以及开放的程度。

Ancestral Homecoming Retreat

to Apr 28

Ancestral Homecoming Retreat

Why Do We Gather in CommuniTEA?

Many of us in the Chinese diaspora community, living far from our ancestral lands and people, struggle with not knowing where HOME is. We often feel disconnected - from ourselves, from people in our lives, from the Earth, from our blood family and community, and from a relationship with something greater than our material existence. It’s common to carry a sense of confusion, alienation or heaviness, navigating life shaped by cross-cultural identities, inherited beliefs, intergenerational wounds, and complex family dynamics.

Yet, we are never truly alone: our quests, struggles and relationships with our highest calling are deeply intertwined with the lineages of creative life force that flow through us.

Within these lineages lie immense gifts — no matter it is real life expansions and inner power waiting for you to reclaim on the path of lineage healing, or ancestral wisdom on how to resolve intergenerational wounds that leads to bigger systematic change. Connecting with our roots enable us to draw nourishment from our earthly foundations, open us to the infinite possibility of guidance, support and belonging waiting for you — what we call our Ancestral Trust Fund.

We know this journey is not easy, as it has not been for us. That’s why we created this CommuniTEA space, to back you with a network of support. We invite you to explore ways to live in alignment with our cultural and ancestral heritage — the beautiful and the ugly— and ways to anchor our lives in deep groundedness and trust. We also invite you to become open to see yourself in the mirror in others, noticing how we are not separate, but united in our shared challenges and journeys back to wholeness. Our talks will draw on personal stories and Chinese ancestral wisdom such as Daoist, Confucius and Buddhist philosophy, Chinese medicine etc. to nurture our connection to Earth and to our primary being. Whether you are new to ancestral work or have been walking this path for years, our community offers a space to listen, reflect and connect with the root source of life within you.

So, will you let us pour a cup of tea for you and join us in the conversation?

Why Do We Gather in CommuniTEA?

Many of us in the Chinese diaspora community, living far from our ancestral lands and people, struggle with not knowing where HOME is. We often feel disconnected - from ourselves, from people in our lives, from the Earth, from our blood family and community, and from a relationship with something greater than our material existence. It’s common to carry a sense of confusion, alienation or heaviness, navigating life shaped by cross-cultural identities, inherited beliefs, intergenerational wounds, and complex family dynamics.

Yet, we are never truly alone: our quests, struggles and relationships with our highest calling are deeply intertwined with the lineages of creative life force that flow through us.

Within these lineages lie immense gifts — no matter it is real life expansions and inner power waiting for you to reclaim on the path of lineage healing, or ancestral wisdom on how to resolve intergenerational wounds that leads to bigger systematic change. Connecting with our roots enable us to draw nourishment from our earthly foundations, open us to the infinite possibility of guidance, support and belonging waiting for you — what we call our Ancestral Trust Fund.

We know this journey is not easy, as it has not been for us. That’s why we created this CommuniTEA space, to back you with a network of support. We invite you to explore ways to live in alignment with our cultural and ancestral heritage — the beautiful and the ugly— and ways to anchor our lives in deep groundedness and trust. We also invite you to become open to see yourself in the mirror in others, noticing how we are not separate, but united in our shared challenges and journeys back to wholeness. Our talks will draw on personal stories and Chinese ancestral wisdom such as Daoist, Confucius and Buddhist philosophy, Chinese medicine etc. to nurture our connection to Earth and to our primary being. Whether you are new to ancestral work or have been walking this path for years, our community offers a space to listen, reflect and connect with the root source of life within you.

So, will you let us pour a cup of tea for you and join us in the conversation?

Coming Home to Yourself Journey: Yin & Sound 🌿✨

Join me on a Yin & Sound Healing class, where we will hold fewer poses are held for 3-5 minutes, targeting our fascia, the largest connective tissue and sensory organ. This practice helps to clear Qi stagnation and expel toxins, improving our overall wellness. The class will end with 10-15 minutes of sound healing, using instruments known to induce theta brainwaves, leading participants into a state of deep restoration and healing. This combination offers a powerful environment for restoration and is ideal for anyone seeking to achieve profound relaxation and rejuvenate their body, mind and spirit.
