What we’re about
Welcome to Authentic Relating Denver. Here, we gather with each other to build genuine in-person connections and explore our relational fields.
What is authentic relating? It is a way to explore the vast landscape of human connection that lies beyond the scope of most human connections. It is a practice that settles the reactive nervous system and allows people to be deeply seen, heard, and accepted for who they are.
During our meetups, we welcome ourselves and each other just as we are. We practice authentic relating skills and exercises to dive deeper into awareness, connection and understanding. Our ultimate goal is to bring more vulnerability, intimacy, nourishment and trust into our relationships and into the present moment.
In this community, everyone is welcomed. Regardless of your age, race, identities, or experience with the authentic relating practice, you are a valuable part of this group. We look forward to relating with you at the next event!
Lastly, if you are interested in continuing your authentic relating practice, we are here to enable you. Feel free to reach out at the end of an event to learn more about Authentic Relating Training (ART International), or to join our leadership team which leads and facilitates sessions.
