Small Group Guidelines
- Create an atmosphere where judgment is never given or experienced… ever!
- The leader, if there is one, must be just as vulnerable as the rest.
- Encourage everyone to come with the intention of comforting another.
- Remember: no struggle is too small. Pain is pain by the one experiencing it.
- Remember: no struggle is too big. Friends can alleviate the load.
- If stuff stops, just end it. Don’t keep something going just for the sake of it.
- Resist giving answers or solutions. Just listen and empathize.
- Be bold enough to prevent domination by anyone, including yourself.
- Never, ever express shock, dismay, or surprise.
- Practice #1 (this is the key to everything).
