About digestion groups

The integrational aspect of applying Truth is strongly supported by entering into groups, wherein the field is held on a bottomline of accuracy. The community supports the process of digestion by the simple fact that all implicated are aware of the basic ground of Truth, which is required for digestion to take place in a supportive environment.

The Digestion groups are intended to open space for the members of Gateway, walking with the teaching of Aisha Salem.

We learn from each other's resolutions, we support each other with the Presence of Silence and Seeing and we open this space of digestion on the deep grounds of the teaching of Aisha Salem.

Participation in Digestion Groups

Before entering a digestion group, you are invited to spend 15 minutes in silence, on your own, summing up your current state of affairs. You can Feel into it and allow your puzzle-pieces to come together, so you are ready to benefit from the Silent Witnessing of your digestion group, in whatever is moving for you at present time.

The Structure of Meetings

All group-leaders were chosen by Aisha and prepared for guidance through the meetings.

 

  • At beginning of meeting, once everyone settled with audio and video, a welcome with body-centering is initiated in an opening of the space, by the group-leader.
    .
  • Following the opening of the space the ZOOM-room is split into the 4-people groups and the sharing begins. Each person speaks for 15 minutes, sharing what is moving in them in this time in honesty, vulnerability and straightness. Taking turns one doesn’t necessarily have to offer a verbal sharing, but if wished one can simply sit in Presence and Connection, being witnessed in group space.
    .
  • Group members are to simply Listen with full-body attention – no advice, no pointing anything out, no opinions - only deep feeling and openness in Listening. A cue from the group-leader will lead to the next person’s turn. A Gesture of gratitude between speaker and the group for listening/witnessing is invited before moving on to next person.
    .
  • After the 4th person has shared, and a cue been made by group-leader, 10 minutes are given in which the group can freely share mindfully, or choose to sit in Silence/Presence together to conclude.
    .
  • By final instruction from group-leader the 4-person group-spaces are dissolved as all re-enter the mutual meeting-space. Group-leader initiates meditation and the entire group enters app. 30 minute sitting in mutual space with self-focus.
    .
  • The meeting concludes with a joined gesture of gratitude with an ending word from facilitator.
