The core invitation we're making here is to recognize that each of us is one whole, integrated life. And that one whole integrated life is made of and is encompassing, and encompassed by, a universe of tremendous multiplicity within and without. And what we have explored here are the different moves you can make to release, to unleash, to unlock, to free up, to integrate and to transcend as we become a more fully embodied human life. Join Aviv Shahar as he welcomes Kyriaki Nikandrou and Liz Halter to engage in this rich examination of Polarity Management Moves.

“If we don’t actually work to identify and move beyond, then we spend a large part of our life with a lack of consciousness and being stuck in a kind of reactivity of actually something else running the show and we’re unaware of it.” (04:50) (Liz)
“There is an art to compromise and to not being locked in the either/or, but to find other options and other percentages that lead to solutions, that lead to agreements or co-creating, and that allow movement. Otherwise we are stuck, we are polarized, and a lot of disputes and quarrels ensue that really deplete us and we misspend our energy and happiness.” (09:49) (Kyriaki)
“A complaint is the misdirected energy of an unmet need.” (21:38) (Aviv)
“The importance between balance and movement which is, in a way, another move because when we stop to move, we are bound to fall on one side or the other. Let’s say when we’re cycling or walking on a narrow bar or when we want to stay very immovable, we need to move a small part of our body, like the guards outside the palace.” (38:57) (Kyriaki)
“We possibly touched on a dozen different moves, some we instantiated with examples and some we only touched on briefly. And the core invitation we’re making here is recognizing that you are one, whole integrated life. And that one whole, integrated life is encompassing and encompassed by a universe of tremendous multiplicity within and without.” (45:55) (Aviv)
