#3 - This Space's Guidelines
Good morning!
Welcome to story #3!
This article discusses
Some rules and guidelines
Community sharing
Tell me about you
The first two articles were about setting up the space. Why am I here? Why this website?
As a quick reminder, this website has been created during the completion of the Bachelors in Counselling and Integrative Psychotherapy. I am becoming a psychotherapist and will share some reflections, life experiences, theories and worldviews. Even if my articles seem personal, I would love to use this website as a first point of contact with future clients in my therapy practice. Writing articles is the beginning of something bigger I will share with you.
Before sharing more articles with you, I was thinking of setting up together some ground rules, some guidelines for this space - this community - as I want it to be safe, respectful and meaningful for everyone.
Like in psychotherapy, establishing and discussing rules together with clients is an extremely important part of the healing and growing process.
I would like this space to be …
Respectful, compassionate
A genuine try at understanding others’ points of view.
Respect my space, my words and my opinions.
Let’s try to keep this space shame and blame free.
Let’s nourish each other, so please feel free to share your reflections and thoughts.
Love instead of hate.
Feel instead of think.
The first few articles might feel messy and disorganised. The format and articles’ organisation might change in the future.
Maybe like my mind? But that’s okay. I would love a judgement-free space, where you and we can express ourselves freely.
Stay open and flexible.
Accept and embrace the change.
What I write is mostly about thoughts and reflections at this moment, in the now. It might change. The universe is forever moving. It is dynamic and forever changing. Let’s accept and embrace this moving and dynamic flow.
If you don’t like something, that is okay. If you decide to stay in this space, let’s grow together. Let’s share our differences in respectful and kind ways. I accept change, especially when it’s done in a loving and patient way, at my own pace.
My goal is not to convince you of anything or to try to change your mind. My goal here is simply to share my worldviews at this moment. My goal here is to continue to heal, grow, change, and share.
Tell me about you
What would you like this space to be?
Any other rules or guidelines you would like to add?
I’m sending you pure and genuine love, filled with light and warmth.
Take care of your whole self, each other, and your community.
Nurture and be mindful of the natural world around you and within you.
