Joelle, thanks, your contribution will help me to "reframe" this not easily defineable feeling, which is not fear, but near to it, so that we intuitively tend to interprete it as such. I am always full of "butterflies in my stomach" (funny, we also use the same metaphor in the german language) before important events. And yes, pacing around also helps me.
I passed you advice also on to my private discussion group.

Her solution was to pace in the room while she warmed up her voice, and I have find that useful for Open Space as well. In fact, I walk quite a bit in the couple of days before an event, feeling my own grounding and meditating on the coming meeting. You will find your own style, of course! * * ========================================================== osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu, Visit: http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html
