Arrival
Guided grounding exercises bring attention back to the body, the room, and individual choice. Participants arrive without being asked to perform.
SOMA
Accord
Organizational wellbeing programs for companies and community groups.
“Before better collaboration,
there must be recognition.”
Human before role
“Full human regard changes how work is approached.”
The SŌMA Accord™ Method creates structured spaces where people can arrive, safely drop the edited persona, and reconnect on a more authentic, sound basis. They are witnessed without judgment or agendas of extraction. They practice what is shared and explore new ways of relating, including exchanging perspectives for deeper understanding.
The AUWRA Method
Five stages.
One accord.
Un-Roling
Roles and titles are set beside us for the length of the program. Role-exchange play and human-before-role prompts invite immersion in another perspective and begin dissolving otherness.
Witnessing
Pairs or small circles practice prompted and guided listening. When ready, participants write reflections from the other person's point of view, without requiring personal disclosure.
Recognition
Shared-language and common-ground mapping make connection visible without erasing difference. Release statements are written in water calligraphy, witnessed, and allowed to dissolve.
Accord
The group forms new relational agreements and small practices. With eyes closed, participants or group representatives are guided through an outcome visualization for integration.

Recognition before repair.
