Discernment in 360 degrees.

You are trained to reach a new level of discernment. This applies both to how you interpret and assess your external circumstances, and to your psyche, your thoughts and feelings, and your body. Your awareness and knowledge of your psyche — and especially of your subconscious — is decisive for your capacity for 360-degree clarity.

Blind spots exist by virtue of unprocessed subconscious material. If you were once a child, you carry unprocessed material. That is simply how the human psyche and its developmental journey are put together. This applies to everyone. It applies regardless of how effective our patterns of action — our survival strategies — have been at producing material and social success.

To reach full self-mastery it is necessary to involve both bodily and emotional intelligence alongside our rational intelligence. Our thinking is far more shaped by the state of the body and by emotion than we usually assume — and under pressure, fatigue or ambiguity, fast automatic reactions win out over slow, conscious assessment.

You can only see clearly in 360 degrees once you succeed in integrating the three.

Your ability to integrate full information from your nervous system has direct consequences for your discernment, how you make decisions, your actions, how you enter relationship with others — and of course your ability to create results and lead others.

The work draws on a Danish relational-therapeutic tradition that trains precisely this interplay between body, emotion and reason — combined with my studies in cognitive psychology and more than twenty years of my own leadership experience.
