Triangulation Workshop with Rev. Greg Coles | Moving from Drama to Empowerment
Sun Apr 23, 2023 12:00 PM - 2:30 PM EDT
Unity of Naples, 34112
Description
How many times have you heard the phrase or spoken the words, “Stop triangulating!” How did it turn out?
According to psychotherapist Dr. Murray Bowen, relationship triangles are foundational to building healthy systems, families and organizations. Whenever there is discomfort or heightened anxiety experienced within a primary two-person relationship, we will naturally seek a third party to help us restore balance.
What ministry doesn’t have its share of discomfort and anxiety as we seek to re-imagine “church” in the aftermath of a global pandemic? Our goal as leaders is not to stop triangulation from happening – impossible – but to teach and model how to transform our relationships from Drama Triangles to Empowerment Triangles.
In this workshop you will be provided tools to help your personal, work and church relationships to shift from Drama Triangles – that polarize and perpetuate conflict – to Empowerment Triangles – that nurture, transform and heal.
2 CEU (Continuing Education) Credits are available for those who attend this workshop.
There is no registration fee for this event, though we are accepting Love Offerings, with a suggestion of $20 per participant. If you feel blessed by this experience and are called to give a one-time or recurring gift, click HERE for information on how to give.
