USING YOUR MAP
The journey back to you happens when you use your
map alongside The R.E.S.T Process.
Before we dive into the R.E.S.T process let’s look at
some map basics:
POSITIONING
It is important to have your map open in front of you
as you work through the R.E.S.T. Process because:
Seeing
You are learning to become a witness to your own
habitual patterns. Your map allows you to see the
light and shadow parts of your nature in one place
and helps focus your concentration by providing a
container for all that you are. As you work with your
map you will see connections patterns and recurring
themes with a new perspective and awareness.
Listening
Working with your map is a form of deep listening.
Through questioning, listening and acknowledging
you will become an explorer, charting territory both
strange and familiar. In each encounter with your
map you will listen for the new and the steadfast,
bring back learning and resolutions and listen for the
wisdom they hold.
Working with the map enables you to be playful with
the unconscious and to let things come up to the
surface as you gaze. The R.E.S.T. Process works in
the same way as hearing a piece of music, seeing a
painting or watching a movie. It is beyond the
cognitive mind, the things you are aware of, and
works directly with the unconscious. This brings
unexpected epiphanies, ‘aha!’ moments and
connections into your awareness that allow you to
see and understand yourself and your experiences
more clearly.
